1 00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:05,240 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to Outspoken. Coming up on the program, 2 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,800 Speaker 1: we delve into the psychology of hate following, why the 3 00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: brownlow has become big business for wags, and the X 4 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: rated batchy interview that got tongues wagging. But first, how 5 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: was you week? Amy? Oh? My week has been so 6 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: hectic and it's only Tuesday, so I'm pretty wrecked. So 7 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 1: apologies for anything silly I say on tonight's podcast, But 8 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: I was up till three point thirty in the morning 9 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 1: finishing off work and also something an exciting project that 10 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: we've been working on that we can't say too much about. 11 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: How's that for clickbaiting? An exciting project that we can't 12 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: say anything about. Oh, I know, I know. Sorry, we'd 13 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: love to, but we can't. And you may notice that 14 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: Kate's not here tonight. She's got thirty six's media manager, Judy, 15 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: So you guys are just stuck with us. So let's 16 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: get onto the first topic. Hate following has become a 17 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: guilty modern pastime. Whether it's that girl from UNI you 18 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: lost touch with, the colleague who's always nosing the boss, 19 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,479 Speaker 1: that influencer who floods your feed with shameless bikini picks, 20 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: or your boyfriend's ex. You don't know why you do it, 21 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: but we take so much pleasure in irritating ourselves with 22 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: their behavior. So why do we get such a sick, 23 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,399 Speaker 1: twisted pleasure from engaging and investing emotions into someone we 24 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: can't stand amy. Is there someone that you hate follow? Well, 25 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: that's a bit personal, Zovie. You don't have to say names, 26 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: maybe just genres of what they do. I think I 27 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: think everybody hate follows. I of course have people on 28 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: my Instagram that I don't know. I yeah, I don't 29 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: really I get either envious of their life or I 30 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: don't like them, but I find myself looking at their 31 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 1: content all the time. Well, generally we do hate follow 32 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: our peers the most. So there's actually there's a term 33 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: for it, which is a manual stalk. So this means 34 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: it's a manual stalk, so you don't even follow the person, 35 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: but you are seeking this person out all the time, 36 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: just in an effort to see what they've been up to. 37 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: Some people do go next level with that kind of thing. 38 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: I've heard of people who do the whole manual stalk 39 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: that you're talking about, and they'll actually go onto their 40 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: stories because there was a time when people actually didn't 41 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: know that your photo actually pops up in people's Insta stories. 42 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: Wasn't that a frightening moment when that came out. Well, 43 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: I have a confession. I do have a fake Instagram 44 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: account that I do use to stalk people that I 45 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: do not like. I know you, I know you've had 46 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: that for a while. I don't know the log in details, 47 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: so I got to get on it. I think it 48 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: makes sense though. It gives you the freedom to look 49 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: at anyone's stories you like. It does get sussed sometimes though. 50 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: If you do have a really good look at your 51 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: Insta stories and a name that you have no idea 52 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: who it is keeps popping up, you can get sort 53 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: of I suppose exposed in that way. I think as well, 54 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,399 Speaker 1: I really enjoy hate following people on YouTube or influencers 55 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: whose lives are envy. Yeah, with some of the people, 56 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: it's not like I overly envy their life, but just 57 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: come across as so pretentious. I know it's weird because 58 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: I have found myself in the past staying up till 59 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: like two am on my phone, and you get in 60 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: this trap where you keep looking at people's pages who 61 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,679 Speaker 1: you either know or the worst one is I've caught 62 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: myself looking at either wags or YouTubers, and I don't know, 63 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: I get such a sick kick even looking at their 64 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: Christmas Day photos. I know that sounds so weird. Well, 65 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: I will sit through entire YouTube videos of people I 66 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: don't even enjoy, just to sit and tisskin, to roll 67 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: my eyes and to just feel like I'm better than them. Well, 68 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: that is a guilty pleasure. I think of yours and 69 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: Kate's and mine, especially together when we catch up. We 70 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: love nothing more than to sit and watch YouTube and 71 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: just kind of make snide remarks. So I was reading 72 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: an article by a man repeller and there are actually 73 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: three types of hate following. It's the self righteous, the jealous, 74 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: and the scapegoat. So which one do you think you 75 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: are amy? What's the scapegoat? So the scapegoat is a 76 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: cycle logical mechanism that people use where they are kind 77 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: of in a state of denial and they're projecting responsibility 78 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: or blame on others. So you kind of late you 79 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: kind of have negative feelings about this person to kind 80 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: of get a sense of gratification about yourself. Right, Well, 81 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: I suppose I've done that in the past, where there'll 82 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: be people that have either wronged me and I get 83 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: a kick out of looking at their Instagram if I 84 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: think that maybe their life isn't going the way that 85 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 1: they wanted it to, if I'm being honest. Well, a 86 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen Ohio State University study found that when people 87 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: feel most vulnerable, that's likely that's when they're more likely 88 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,799 Speaker 1: to seek out the profiles of those that they deem 89 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: as less than them in some way. That's interesting, Yeah, 90 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: so it kind of fits into this theory of social comparison. 91 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: So you're going to be looking up people's pages that 92 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: you don't particularly like or your deem is doing worse 93 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: than you, to make yourself feel better and think, oh, yeah, 94 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: I'm doing quite well in the scheme of things. Have 95 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: you done that? Of course I have. I think everyone's 96 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: done it. It's weird though, because I don't know. I'm 97 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: trying to think if I I've looked up people like 98 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: that when I've felt down, and I don't know if 99 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: it's like sometimes I just randomly think of people from 100 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: school or you know, previous workplaces or something and think, oh, 101 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: I want to what they're up to, and then I 102 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: suppose get a sick kick out of seeing if maybe 103 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: their life isn't going how well they would have liked 104 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: it to. But with Instagram, everyone puts up stuff that 105 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: makes them look good, so that's a strange thing about it. 106 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: The jealousy hate following is an interesting one too, because 107 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: there is kind of satisfying feeling with it, like, even 108 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: though you're incredibly jealous and intimidated or even envious of 109 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: this person, you kind of try and make yourself feel 110 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: better because you're inside your feeling insecure that you don't 111 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: have something that they've achieved or you don't look like them, 112 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: but you're kind of trying to check up on them 113 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: and see maybe if there's things that they failed at 114 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: to somehow make yourself feel a little bit better. I 115 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: reckon I'm more the self righteous one where I'll look 116 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: at people like that and be like, oh, I can't 117 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 1: believe they've posted that, like how arrogant or something. I 118 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: feel like that's more me. Yeah, So the self righteous 119 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: is very much someone who is going to judge and 120 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: scrutinize someone else's behavior and have a bit of a 121 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,119 Speaker 1: holier than our attitude. So maybe that does fit you well, Amy, 122 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: well we've got I don't think I'm holy of a maw, 123 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: but I think that everybody who listens to this would 124 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: have to admit from time to time they do like 125 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: to sort of look, you know, look at other people's 126 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: and sort of turn their nose up at what they're 127 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: posting online. And there is a bit of a method 128 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: to this madness because a lot of studies show that 129 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: we engage in consume people or things that we don't 130 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: like as a way of exploring our own identity. So 131 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:40,679 Speaker 1: within that self righteous hate following, you're kind of judging 132 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: this person for not having the same values that align 133 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: with you. So you learn more about your values by 134 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: scrutinizing them. As funny as that may, so it's quite 135 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: educational hate following, that's right. It was funny because our 136 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 1: dad was telling us the other week. It's about some 137 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: radio program that he listens to, and every time I 138 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 1: see Dad, he's bagging out this radio station. And I 139 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: said to him, Dad, I actually think that you hate 140 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: listen to the radio station. So it's like even older 141 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: people I feel like a hate following in their own 142 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: way for sure. And there is actually really interesting research 143 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: by doctor Leslie Prince, who says it's much easier to 144 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: oppose something than propose something new. So, for instance, with 145 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: our dad, we generally find it easier to say who 146 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: we hate rather than things that we like. I feel 147 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: like that's a bit like with The Bachelor, though, because 148 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: I feel like people actually hate watch The Bachelor. Like 149 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: if you sit around with a group of girls and 150 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: watch the first episode when all of the women arrive. 151 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: We might not like to admit it, but everyone is 152 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: judging those women intensely, and it becomes even remembering their names. 153 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: Early on. It's always like, oh that girl that did 154 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: this or wore this or whatever. That's how I remember them. 155 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: A Psychologists say there is also an element where we're 156 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: addicted to drama without hate following how so well, they 157 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: believe that humans can form an addiction to chaos and drama, 158 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: which I think something with something so so Basically, social 159 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: media makes it a lot easier for us to ingest 160 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: this constant stream of drama and content. I mean, I 161 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: do find it interesting when I'm going and having a 162 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: stalk with someone I hate, and you know, if their 163 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: life is imploding or well, we were talking about it 164 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 1: the other day, how you know, sometimes you have people 165 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: on your Instagram that you know, and they'll do these 166 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: things that annoy you and you're almost waiting, Like, say 167 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: someone posts an Insta story and they're like showing off 168 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: about what they're doing. But SOF and I've got a 169 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: particular person who we hate follow, I've got to admit it. 170 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: And when they don't post the content, you're like, fuck, 171 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: I wanted to see what they were posting. Yeah, it's 172 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: kind of this voyeuristic thing where, you know, we're all 173 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: kind of detectives online and we're trying to piece together 174 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: what's really happening in these people's relationships with their new partners, 175 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: or we're trying to pick up on any body language 176 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: in a photo that we can find. So I think 177 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: there is a real voyeuristic approach to this hate following 178 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: as well when we're talking about hate following. Though I 179 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: don't necesscessarily look up people every day, it just be 180 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: something that I would do on the side. But I'm 181 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: sure it does sort of engulf some people's life if 182 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: there is someone that you really hate. Do you think 183 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: it would have any sort of psychological effects on people? Well, 184 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: I do think it can give some people a false 185 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: confidence when they're comparing themselves to others, and it kind 186 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: of just band aids over whatever problem they're feeling within themselves. 187 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: So I feel like, if it's not really contributing anything 188 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: meaningful for your life, and it's kind of causing you 189 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: more harm than good, maybe you should stop hate following 190 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: certain people. But on the other hand, some people do 191 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: find it as a form of relaxation. They're kind of 192 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: venting that they can do that. That's what I find. 193 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: We have to admit m you know, back in the day, 194 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: when we get back, when we get together with our bestie, 195 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: who will be listening to this, And I remember it 196 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: was so fun just to sort of look at other 197 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: people's instagrams and go, oh, yeah, that's what they're up to. 198 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: And maybe people you didn't like you had, you know, 199 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: a little bit of a gossip about that. I think 200 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: it's just I think it's just natural. We do want 201 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: to point out that hate following is of course very 202 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: different cotrolling. So hate following is obviously a bit more passive. 203 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: You're not actually leaving comments on people's things. It's not 204 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: very internalized. No, you're just watching from afar. And the 205 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,959 Speaker 1: thing is It's funny because I think I sometimes pay 206 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: more attention to the people who I hate follow rather 207 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: than my friends Instagram accounts. And it's like, I think, 208 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: sometimes you start off hate following, but then actually really 209 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: like the people in the end, if it's an influencer 210 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 1: or something like that. Well, I've sat with girls who 211 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: have been flicking through Instagram and they will find a 212 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: photo in their feed and go look at this, and 213 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: then they like the photos. Oh that's bizarre. I don't 214 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 1: do that, Like, I won't like somebody who posts that 215 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: I hate follow. I think that's completely hypocritical. So moving 216 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: on to last night's brownlow. In the wag world, the 217 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: brownlow is big business. From hiring professional photographers to capture 218 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 1: Instagram snaps to enlisting the help of top fashion designers 219 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 1: and makeup artists, the brownlow is now a platform for 220 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: wives and girlfriends to forge successful careers. Fifteen years ago, 221 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: Rebecca Judd's plunging red dress sparked to her career in 222 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 1: the public eye and elevated the brownlow into fashion history. 223 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 1: But what about the partners whose fashion choices miss the mark? 224 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: Should wags today have to accept the good with the bad? 225 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: What do you think so. I definitely think there are 226 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: a lot of upsides to being a wag, especially when 227 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: you're being put on a platform like the Brownlow Medal. 228 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: You know, these girls are putting on a dress and 229 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: they know that there is going to be some scrutiny involved, 230 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: but they also know that there is an opportunity for 231 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: them to expand their brand. So I definitely think that 232 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: they've got to be wise about what dresses they're wearing 233 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: and wise about how they do capitalize on these opportunities. Now, 234 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: I had a look at some of the fashion on 235 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: the red carpet, and it did surprise me the sort 236 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: of out their dresses that some of the women were wearing, 237 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: because just on you know, initial first glance, I could 238 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: see that people at home or people in the media 239 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,959 Speaker 1: would tear some of the outfit choices apart. Well, it's 240 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: interesting you say that, because I thought it was quite 241 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: tame this year. Oh really, yeah. I didn't think it's 242 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: as bad as previous years, you know, when we had 243 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 1: Buckley's wife in a glittery g string, or you know, 244 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: there's been some absolute shock at outfits. I think it 245 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: was quite tame this year because the women do know 246 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: that there is going to be scrutiny, not only in 247 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: the papers but online. Well we were saying, SOFNA was 248 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: saying today that ten years ago, as you said, it 249 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: was just so much worse. And even around the time 250 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: that Rebecca Judd was making a name for herself, I 251 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: mean there were people praising the dress that she wore, 252 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: that red dress and saying how amazing she looked. But 253 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: we have to remember this dress showed off her belt, 254 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: was a slip down to a belly button. It was 255 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: quite controversial as well. Well, I think it was a tie. 256 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: It was two thousand and four, so we didn't really 257 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 1: have social media, it wasn't as prevalent, so we were 258 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 1: just being dictated to by journalists. But do you think 259 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: that there is a place for the best and worst 260 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: dress list in twenty nineteen. It's a hard one. I 261 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: think that some people watch the brownlow red carpet almost 262 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: as if it's a sport of its own, and the 263 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: sport is putting down the women for what they choose 264 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: to wear. So I don't know, it's hard because while 265 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: their partners are hugely famous in Australia for kicking a 266 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 1: football around, sometimes this is the first experience these women 267 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,079 Speaker 1: have had dealing with the media, so I can sympathize 268 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 1: in a way how awful it would be if you 269 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: rocked up to a Brownlow medal and you're relatively unknown, 270 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: and suddenly your name and pictures splash everywhere being on 271 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: the worst dress list. I mean, I can't imagine how 272 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: humiliating that would be. This year, the media did talk 273 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: a lot about the thigh splits, the plunging their clients, 274 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 1: but what they've done well is that they're going to 275 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: criticize the dress, not the person, which I think is 276 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: very important as well. The Daily Mail did actually break 277 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,359 Speaker 1: the mold a little bit because most surprising most publications, 278 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: they'll have a best and worst dress list, but they 279 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: actually won't say which one they perceive as being the worst. 280 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: They'll just describe the dress as polarizing or daring, or 281 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: say they're showing offul lot of flesh. So do you 282 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: know what I was just thinking. There's obviously a lot 283 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: of you know, talk around what the wags are wearing, 284 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: but what about when it's the afl W their brown 285 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: Low Metal night do they I mean, I don't think 286 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: I've ever seen the women being criticized for their dress 287 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: choices or choices. A number of the afl W women 288 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: did appear in the Best and Worst Dress Really and 289 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: or AFLW player Taylor Harris, she did make the Worst 290 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: and Best Dress list, but it was insinuated that her 291 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: dress was bad. She was wearing a silver, quite plunging 292 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: neckline with her tattoos on display. To be honest, it 293 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: was a metallic dress. It was quite ugly, but she 294 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: did look very beautiful. It was nice to see her 295 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: all done up. And you know, obviously we're used to 296 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: seeing her in her football jersey and how ridiculous is 297 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: that to have? Oh, this is the best and worst, 298 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: but we're not to tell you which is the best. 299 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: We're not going to tell you which is well well 300 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: you could tell from their scathing comments. And as I said, 301 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: the Daily Mail did in did a whole article on 302 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: the worst dress. So there are some people who are 303 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: sticking to the kind of archaic views, did you know? 304 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: But I feel like if there's a if you're putting 305 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: up a gallery and saying this is the best and 306 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: worst but not actually saying it, I feel like I 307 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: almost respect the Daily Mail a bit more, at least 308 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: they're open about slagging off the outfit. Well, maybe you 309 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: won't feel that way when you hear some of the comments. 310 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: The one that I noticed when I was watching the 311 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: telecast was Kate Turner, who was dating a Bombers star, 312 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: diceon Heppel, and she was wearing a black kind of 313 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: latex dress. And I felt really sorry for her because 314 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: she was interviewed on the Red carpet and they said, 315 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: how'd you come up with the look? And she said 316 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: she very much put it in the hands of her stylist, 317 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: and she kind of got by the question that maybe 318 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: they were fearing it was quite a negative dress, and 319 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: she's like, oh, I hope it's all right anyway. So 320 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: The Daily Mail wrote she certainly turned heads in the 321 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: bizarre black PVC bondage inspired frock with a daring thigh split. 322 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: I felt really sorry for her because, I mean, she's 323 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: got a stylist on board giving her this advice. Yeah, 324 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, you have your 325 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: own eyes. Surely they ran through what she was wearing. 326 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: I mean, if I was going to the Brownlow, I 327 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: would choose the safest dress. I mean, I'd rather be 328 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: labeled boring than rock. Up in a sort of bondage 329 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: inspired outfit. Personally, I thought this comment was quite harsh 330 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: for Jess Tarrant, who days is married to Collingwood player 331 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: Chris Tarrant. It said she stepped out wearing an incredibly 332 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: unflattering purple dress featuring a bandeau style top, half a 333 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: flaw length skirt with frills, and the addition of a 334 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: belt around her waist. It wasn't even that bad of 335 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: a dress. It shows how much they're clutching at straws 336 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 1: with this one. Well, that's a thing. I think they 337 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: do get so much attention when they do put out 338 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: scathing articles because unfortunately, we as women, we love consuming 339 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. We love judging what the women 340 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: are wearing. I mean, I know, when I've watched The 341 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: Brownlow in the past, my favorite part of it is 342 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: the red carpet. And do you remember back in the day, 343 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: talking previously obviously, how the Brownlow actually used to be 344 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 1: even more scathing to women. Remember when they had they 345 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: labeled it the wag sorry, the wagon wheel, and they 346 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 1: basically had this contraption where the wag would stand on 347 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: this wheel and it would turn them around in a 348 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: really awkward way, so you could apparently see the whole 349 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: outfit that was just disgusting. Least we have moved on 350 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: a little bit from that. One. More that I have 351 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: to mention who copped it very unfairly was Emma Hawkin's 352 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: wife of Geelong. So she's actually popular on Instagram, isn't 353 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: she she is. She was criticized for going too heavy 354 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: on the cleavage. Now I'm not sure if you saw 355 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: her dress, but it was a long sleeve dress. It 356 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: was a bit of a booby dress. And she did 357 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: put up online that she had a lot of Hollywood 358 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: tape going on. But the thing that I loved about her, 359 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of mums would have loved, 360 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: is she put up such a relatable Instagram photo. So 361 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: in the photo, her daughter was pulling on her arm, 362 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 1: the baby was in Tom's arms, and it was captioned 363 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: waiting for the grandparents to arrive like dot dot dot. 364 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: And it also she also put up a failed photo 365 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: where her Hollywood tape was sticking out of her dresses 366 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 1: her kids were kind of causing chaos. So I thought 367 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: that was really relatable because you usually see all these 368 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 1: glamorous photos and think where are their kids. Yeah, that's 369 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: a good point. And while there was this worst dress, 370 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: can you tell me about some of the best dress people. Well, 371 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: despite all the drama going on in the background with 372 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: her marriage breakdown, Nadia Bartel absolutely stole the show and 373 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: she showed that she is still the queen of football 374 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 1: fashion at the Brown. She did look amazing. She looked incredible. 375 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: It is the best revenge dress I have ever seen. 376 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: It was a baby blue I can't pronounce it's a 377 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 1: joton kature ground and she believed it's incredible. It had 378 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: this big slit up the side and she just she 379 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: looked amazing. And she was there doing hosting duties for 380 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: Channel seven and she absolutely did an incredible job. She 381 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: was so confident. You know, your confidence could be quite 382 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: shattered after something like that, but she did such an 383 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,440 Speaker 1: incredible job. So does she have a gig with seven? 384 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: Because I know she was on that strip Teas show 385 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: that's coming on. Oh, I didn't know she was on there. 386 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: We spoke about on the podcast. Remember, Yeah, apparently she's 387 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: on this full Monty the female version, which is going 388 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: to be on Channel seven. And apparently Jimmy Bartell was 389 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: in the crowd and they've had to edit him out, 390 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 1: which was probably quite a hard job for the editors. Well, 391 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: Jimmy Bartel did receive a mention on social media. So 392 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:26,880 Speaker 1: was he there? I didn't see him there, but funnily enough, 393 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: too busy off in England. Funnily enough, Nadia's sister Michelle, 394 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: she reshared a meme by NW which read Nadia Bartel 395 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 1: on her way to Jimmy Bartell's funeral aka the Brownlow Awards. 396 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: Now this is how you do the revenge body. What 397 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: a legend of a sister. To be fair, Nadia has 398 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: always had their revenge body. I don't think it was 399 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 1: about her body, It was more the dress that just 400 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 1: showed off her incredible physique. I loved that she got 401 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: the support of her fellow wags and that post was 402 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 1: liked by Rebecca Judd and Jacinta Franklin, who are both 403 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: loves of mine. That's lovely. We have to mention another 404 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: person in the best dress. Now this isn't actually for 405 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: their clothes, but their new hairstyle. So Mark Murphy's wife Jesse, 406 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: she revealed a short lob lob that actually that broke, 407 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: as Kate would say, broke the internet she did look amazing, 408 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 1: I thought, but she always looks incredible. She looks like 409 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: a big Barbie doll she does. It was quite a 410 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: shock because someone who owns the Brownlow was not there. 411 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: Who's that Rebecca Judd had missed her first Brownlow since 412 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, but she was on socials. Well, she didn't 413 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: post a photo of what she wore the previous year, 414 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: and she said that she gave the Brownlow a miss 415 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: because she was in Perth with her new niece that 416 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: had been born, so she had quite a good excuse. 417 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: I also think it's worth mentioning that Dyson Hepple stole 418 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 1: the red carpet slightly. He actually ended up wearing shorts 419 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: rather than pants because he couldn't get them over his 420 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: sort of moon boot, so that was pretty funny. Well, 421 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 1: Patrick Dangerfield also took a bit of the limelight away 422 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: from his girlfriend. He was wearing a burgundy velvet suit 423 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: and his girlfriend was actually wearing the same colored dress, 424 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: so it looked a bit gary. It looks like he'd 425 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: stolen it from the Bachelor wardrobe. I think it's actually 426 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: lucky he didn't win the Brownlow because that would have 427 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: been an appalling outfit to look back on. Well, Patti 428 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: should have never left the Crows anyway. So, finishing up 429 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 1: on this topic, do you think the word wag is 430 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: an offensive term these days or do you think that 431 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: it's kind of evolved into something positive. I don't know 432 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: if it's an offensive term. I think that there's definitely 433 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: it definitely evokes an image when someone says wag, of 434 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: what a wag is meant to be like. But I 435 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 1: don't necessarily think that it's offensive. I think there are 436 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: some women who either love it or hate it. I 437 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,360 Speaker 1: think a lot of the successful wags kind of take 438 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: ownership back over that word. But I think there's a 439 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: lot of wags who probably aren't very well known and 440 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: get painted with this brush of being gold diggers or 441 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: shallow or materialistic. Now moving on to our top headlines. 442 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: So the first reads Miley Cyrus reportedly broke up with 443 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: Caitlin Carter because it became too much too soon, and 444 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 1: that's from Elle magazine. What did you think of the split? 445 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: What a surprise? Yeah? Me, that wasn't a rebound at all. 446 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: That wasn't an attention seeking rebound. I honestly don't know 447 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 1: how serious that relationship actually was. To be honest, They're 448 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: probably friends who were consoling each other, you know, in 449 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: a tough time for both of them. So yeah, I 450 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: wasn't really surprised. I wonderful see some people now holding 451 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: a candle of hope that Liam and Miley would come 452 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: back together after this glitch. Well the article, she says 453 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: the reason for the split is because Miley doesn't want 454 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 1: a serious relationship and that she and Kitlyn spent every 455 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: day together and it just wasn't anything that Miley wanted 456 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,959 Speaker 1: to continue doing. She wants to focus on her career 457 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: and moving on to our next headline, Lindsey Lohan is 458 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: savaged on Twitter for her clueless response to the mask 459 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: singer's big reveal, as fans say she deserves an Emmy 460 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: for pretending to recognize the local stars. And that's from 461 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: the Daily Mail. Have you been watching this trash? No? 462 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,360 Speaker 1: I have not, but I'm shocked to say my prediction 463 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: that no one would tune in was completely wrong. This 464 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 1: show actually won the ratings. I got over a million viewers. 465 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: Does that not say a lot about society at the 466 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: moment and what we people must be finding interesting? People 467 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: must we hate following this show, I reckon, But so 468 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 1: what happened was, from what I've read and what I've 469 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 1: seen online, the singing Octopus ended up being Gretel Colleen, who, 470 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: of course she sing well apparently, and so people were 471 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: just losing it at home because Lindsay Lohan she had 472 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 1: this really confused look on her face when it was 473 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: revealed that it's Gretel Colleen, because come on, how is 474 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: Lindsay Lohan expected to know who any of these apparent 475 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: Australian celebrities are. My favorite tweet was from someone who 476 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: compared her acting on the show to how great she 477 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: was on Parent Trap, and I thought that was hilarious 478 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 1: because that was one of her best movies. Someone also 479 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: pointed out that she was kind of just throwing around 480 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,959 Speaker 1: names of well known Australian celebrities and that she clearly 481 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: didn't know who the actual person was, so she was like, oh, 482 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: is it Binge Owen? Is it Chris Lily? Is it Keith? 483 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 1: She know who Chrisly was? No, I reckon, she does that, 484 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: he's got a pretty big following in America. Well, the 485 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: thing that I find utterly ridiculous is the stars are 486 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: clearly in the green room backstage, so they're all seeing 487 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: each other. How is this such a secret thing? Do 488 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: you know what? Though? I have to say, it's a 489 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: pretty good judging lineup, Like I love Jackie O. I 490 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: feel like Lindsay Lohan's a pretty interesting judge as well, 491 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: and then you're Hughesy. I'm sorry I even all that aside. 492 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: I'm not watching it. The next headline is coming soon. 493 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: Bride and Prejudice's premiere date is confirmed as Channel seven 494 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: introduces the five new star crossed couples. And that's from 495 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: the Daily Mail. I am so excited for this. This 496 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: is my guilty pleasure, Bride and Prejudice. This show was 497 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: my life last year. And it's funny because I can't 498 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 1: remember any of the names of the people. I remember. 499 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 1: There was that really awful mother, the Lebanese mother. She 500 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: has the best Oh, I just wonder. I watched the 501 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: shorts for this, and the preview they showed was sort 502 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: of the mother, the mother in law from hell, and 503 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: she's got an issue with, of course, the guy that 504 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: her daughter's chosen to marry. And I just thought, how 505 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: do they even find these people? How do these people 506 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: watch last season show and say, hey, this is a 507 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:26,719 Speaker 1: great idea, let's air some dirty laundry on primetime TV. Well, 508 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 1: it's funny because Bride and Prejudice, it's so different to, 509 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: you know, someone who's going on married at first sight, 510 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 1: because often people get accused of just wanting an Instagram following. 511 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: But the people on here don't even get that. It's 512 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: like that seven year switch. It's kind of this almost. 513 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: It's almost reminds me of this old school genre of 514 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: reality shows. Maybe they do get brainwashed into thinking that 515 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: these psychologists are actually going to help them solve their problems. Yeah, 516 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: after we've aired all the dirty laundry, we count on television. 517 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: I for one though, am happy they've all decided to 518 00:25:55,280 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: do that, because it's just the best moving on. The 519 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: Bachelor ended last week in spectacular fashion, with fan favorite 520 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: Chelsea winning the heart of Batchie Matt Agnew and while 521 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: Abby's exit got tongues wagging when Batchy editors decided to 522 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,919 Speaker 1: trick us all by showing Chelsea arriving first to see Matt. 523 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: It was an interview with Carl and Jackie. Oh that's 524 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: divided opinions, Amy, can you tell us what happened? Well, 525 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: Matt and Chelsea were interviewed, of course, by Carl and 526 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: Jackie Oh, and they got involved in a rather x 527 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 1: rated conversation which unsurprisingly was led by Kyle, and they 528 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: went into some quite graphic detail about their sex life, 529 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: which was I don't know, it was quite bizarre to 530 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: me because the whole time during The Bachelor Chelsea seemed 531 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: very quiet and reserved and she seemed like a totally 532 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: different person in this interview. Did it sound like it 533 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: happened whilst they were on the show or was it 534 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: very much after? So? Really? Yeah, so the couple they 535 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: were asked in a ray of intrusive questions such as 536 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: when did they actually consummate their relationship? And even what 537 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: does Matt's penis look like? So? Very high brow interview. 538 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: So they actually answered these questions? Yeah, so she when 539 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 1: did they consummate their relationships? Well, they revealed that basically 540 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: the Bachelor producers allowed them to have one extra night 541 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: in South Africa before flying back to Australia after the finale. 542 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: Though yes, it was like the directly after the finale 543 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: wrapped up. Apparently they said they were making out on 544 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: the couch. Oh so they didn't actually have sex? Well, 545 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 1: there was other women involved still in the No No, 546 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: No No after the finale after he chosen her, And 547 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: I've heard that Chelsea even revealed details about the other 548 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: girls in the mansion, showing what another some private areas. Yeah, 549 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: so I thought that was so bizarre. So apparently there 550 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: was this rumor going around about how the girls had 551 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: a vagina showing party, and Chelsea confirmed that this was 552 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 1: in fact true, and it was kind of a moment 553 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 1: where she could have a humble brag telling everyone that 554 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: apparently she had a Barbie vagina, which I didn't even know. 555 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: Was that why matt Agne picked her? Well, I don't 556 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: know't know if he was involved in it, but even 557 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 1: that got quite graphic because they Kyle said, oh, so, 558 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: how did you guys, judge? Did you sit down and 559 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: spread your legs? And she was like, no, we just 560 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: pulled our pants down in front of each other. How 561 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: is that a thing? I'm sorry, I don't know if 562 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: there's anyone listening that has a vagina viewing party with 563 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: their friends, but that is something that I wouldn't even 564 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: do with those way, even with your sisters. I feel 565 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: like that would be weirder with your some people see 566 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: more open with being nude in front of each other. 567 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: What I have found quite intriguing about the whole vagina 568 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: party was a comment from one of the Batchy contestants 569 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: that was posted on Abby's Instagram post. So Abby took 570 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: to Instagram tonight with a rather interesting post about slut 571 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: shaming that we will get to in a sec. So 572 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: one of the contestants, her name's Jessica Brody, and to 573 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: be honest, I completely forgot who she was on The Bachelor. 574 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: She was I think the girl with the tattoos that 575 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: they brought in as intruders. She wrote, I showed you 576 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: my vagina within a week of knowing you, God forbid 577 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: you want to kiss the guy? So this vagina interviewing 578 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: have been Week one of The Bachelor. I can't say 579 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: I would have been involved in that if I was. No. 580 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 1: I mean, that's probably more interesting though than some of 581 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: the stuff they actually aired on The Bachelor. Can we 582 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: move on to Abby's post? It has only been released tonight. 583 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: What did she say in it? So? On Instagram, Abby 584 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: wrote things I got slut shamed for on the Bachelor. 585 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: This bikini, my sport at hometown, multiple cocktail party gowns, 586 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 1: kissing Matt without a date and at a cocktail party, 587 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: pashing Matt in various locations with varying degrees of intensity, 588 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: honestly admitting that I wanted to have sex with a 589 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: man I was dating for ten weeks and all around 590 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: just using sexuality to manipulate Matt. This is something I 591 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: did not expect in twenty nineteen. Sex is essential to 592 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: a successful relationship for me, as is sexual chemistry and 593 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: the ability to express that comfortably with my partner. I 594 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: saw commentary around my sexuality, calling out slut shaming and 595 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: a double standard regarding my pash sessions with Matt, with 596 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 1: responses of such shaming her she is just manipulative, dumb, aggressive, 597 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,719 Speaker 1: only wanting sex. To insinuate that any relationship is less 598 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 1: valid because of a strong physical connection is counterteitive. The 599 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: defining factor between a platonic and romantic relationship is physical 600 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: expressions of affection. I saw many comments about me having 601 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: nothing between my ears and that I was so insecure 602 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: she can't talk to him so they just kiss. The 603 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: public see ten minutes of a twelve hour date. It 604 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 1: is insulting to both myself and Matt to assume he 605 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: took me right until the end, purely for a snog, 606 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: and it does go on further, but that is the 607 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: most interesting part of the post. The way Abby was 608 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 1: portrayed had a lot to do with the editing that happened. 609 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: I was listening to Life on Cut by Laura Byrne, 610 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: which I absolutely love, and she was saying in the 611 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:47,959 Speaker 1: final episode how she went on a date with Matt. 612 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: I can't remember what location they're in, but she was 613 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: on a gondola and she said to Matt that she 614 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: would like to sit on his face. And she said 615 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: that she was just so sexually frustrated by being on 616 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 1: this show for twelve weeks that she just had to 617 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: say something, and luckily for her, the editors cut this out. 618 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: It's quite interesting that they would cut that out, though, 619 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 1: because they wanted to put the winner in this incredible light. 620 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 1: But we saw nothing really about Laura Burne on The Bachelor. 621 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: All I could remember was that she made jewelry. Well. 622 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: To be fair, the comment of sitting on Mattie Jay's 623 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: face seems a lot worse out of context than what 624 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: Abby has said. So it is really interesting that the 625 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: Bachelor producers have decided in twenty nineteen to present her 626 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: in this very sexualized, slut shaming way, And it would 627 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: be interesting if Matt had actually chosen Abby, whether the 628 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: editors would sorry, whether the producers actually would have chosen 629 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: to show her in that light, or maybe they would 630 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: have edited out some of the more risque things she said, 631 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 1: like they've done with Laura. What I find really interesting 632 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: is lovers of Love Island will know who I'm talking about. 633 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: Maura Higgins. She was an absolute hero on the show. 634 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: Yet she was very much like Abby, very up front 635 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: with her sexuality, very confident in her sexuality. But women 636 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,959 Speaker 1: love that. So it's really interesting on The Bachelor, obviously 637 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: a different program, that women in Australia seem to hate 638 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: this behavior. Do you know what, I reckon Abby's going 639 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: to go on Bachelor in Paradise and she's going to 640 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: do a Kira Maguire. I reckon everyone's going to love 641 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: her on that. And I think your comparison to Maura 642 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: Higgins from Love Island's quite interesting. I think if Maura 643 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 1: had been on a show like The Bachelor in Ireland 644 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: or in in England, she probably would have been portrayed 645 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: in a similar way. But because Love Island provides you 646 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: a one hour look at what's happening in the villa. 647 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: Each night, you get to see more of her personality. 648 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: So I feel like the more we see of Abby, 649 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: the more people are probably going to like her. I 650 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: think we should also remember that Abby is twenty three 651 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: years old. She's had so much unfair criticism thrown at her. 652 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: Look to be fair, I think what people didn't like 653 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: about Abby, and you know, while it might have been edited, 654 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: was the fact that she appeared to be all over 655 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 1: Matt in front of the other girls, and it didn't 656 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 1: seem like there was too much girl code going on. 657 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: But I also do see I suppose her side of 658 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: it that, of course her aim at being on the 659 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: Bachelor is actually to get to know Matt, and she 660 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: obviously wants to see if there is that connection between her, 661 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: and it sounds like they don't spend much time with 662 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: Matt at all. I suppose maybe it's easy to forget 663 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: that the cameras are there. I don't know, obviously, I 664 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 1: haven't been on the show. I don't know how close 665 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: to the cameras are. Well. Actually it was Helena came 666 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: out on Kyle and Jackie O and she was asked 667 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: about that uncomfortable kissing scene between Matt and Abbey where 668 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: she was grinding on him on the beach. Oh yes, 669 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: and she said that she just felt uncomfortable watching the 670 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: preview and actually didn't watch the episode, and that she 671 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: was just kind of surprised that she'd be able to 672 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 1: do that and she'd be able to say what she 673 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: said on the show when there was she said, like 674 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: ten at least ten crew around, so cameras, producers, you know, 675 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: sound operators, everything. I just think that Abby raises such 676 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: a good point though. You know, we're living in this 677 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: society in twenty nineteen when we're very much urging people 678 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 1: women to stand up for themselves and be feminists and 679 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,360 Speaker 1: be I suppose free with their sexuality. Yet we have 680 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: a huge problem when we've got someone in our face 681 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,399 Speaker 1: doing it. It's funny because we haven't really heard any 682 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 1: criticism from Chelsea about being so overtly open to talking 683 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: about her intimate details with Matt, and it's almost like 684 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: it's fine, she can do whatever she wants if she 685 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 1: wants to talk about it. But there just seems to 686 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: be a lot of shade that's been thrown on Abby 687 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: wasn't Abby left in tears after this interview? Yes, that's 688 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: a very important point. I didn't mention was Abby did 689 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 1: a follow up interview with Kyle and Jackie O about 690 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: an hour after Kyle and Jackieo's chat with Matt and Chelsea, 691 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: and Kyle described basically how they'd consummated their relationship and 692 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: poor Abby was left in tears. And I did feel 693 00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,399 Speaker 1: a bit bad for Kyle because he's obviously a shock doc. 694 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 1: I don't think he thought he was gonna make her 695 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: cry because she had been so strong on the final 696 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: episode saying, Oh, I don't care, so I'm going to 697 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: be crying because she still cares about him. Yeah. Well, 698 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 1: he first asked her if she was over Matt, and 699 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,479 Speaker 1: she said that she wasn't, and then in Kyle's mind, 700 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: he was trying to help her get over Matt by saying, oh, 701 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: you know, you're just got to get over it because 702 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: you know, X Y and Z happened on the on 703 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: the night after the finale, and what that would be 704 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: pretty crushing. You know. That's what I find so odd 705 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: about the Bachelor of finale. They are actually breaking up 706 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: with someone that they would have had to somewhat care about, 707 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: and then the next second they're over the moon and 708 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: in love and having sex. So it would be very crushing. 709 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: What I found funny about this whole series was all 710 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: the talk about how Matt wasn't actually watching the series. 711 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: I think he said he watched the first few episodes, 712 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: and I'm assuming he watched it with Chelsea, But I 713 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: reckon he and Chelsea didn't watch it because he knew 714 00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: that things were going to heat up between him and Abbey. 715 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:00,840 Speaker 1: I mean, how uncomfort to be with that be to 716 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: watch those makeout scenes. All in all, it was a 717 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,479 Speaker 1: great series of The Bachelor, but I have to admit 718 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: I'm not excited for the Bachelorette. I actually am so 719 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: I was not really team Angie. I thought it was 720 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 1: a really odd decision, but I saw the preview for it, 721 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: and I thought, I don't know, I really like her, 722 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: like I really liked her when she was on goggle Box. 723 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 1: I found it really funny and she seems like a 724 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 1: very genuine person. And I think it might be an 725 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 1: opportunity for the Bachelorette to sort of actually have a 726 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: true love story, because I feel like they might have 727 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: chosen some more down to earth people to be on 728 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:37,919 Speaker 1: the show. Well, I hope we do get a true 729 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 1: love story. I just had to cringe at the adverts 730 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: when Evie was her fairy godmother and she had the 731 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: ug boots on. I just I think that was a 732 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: bit far. I saw a different preview and it was 733 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: more Angie talking about how she wanted to find love 734 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 1: and how she's so surprised to be named the bachelorette. 735 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: What I'm gonna find, we all. What I'm looking forward 736 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: to most is the Goggle recap of it because it's 737 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: such an interesting for the interesting one for them to 738 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 1: have to talk about like how they can handle it. 739 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: It will be great. I think that's all we have 740 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 1: time for tonight. If you did enjoy listening to the show, 741 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 1: we'd love if you could share a photo on Instagram 742 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 1: of where you listened and give us a tag because 743 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: we'd love to see it. We'd also love some more 744 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 1: five star ratings. If you're enjoying the show, just quickly 745 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 1: give us a five star rating. It would help us 746 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 1: a lot, and say tune this week.
