Speaker 1: Coming up on today's show, Sarah's Day ignites debate about
Speaker 1: what I eat in a day trend Ruby Tuesday, Matthew's
Speaker 1: house is targeted by a gang of thieves and Saffron
Speaker 1: Barker catches up with her ex. Hello and welcome to Outspoken.
Speaker 1: It's your dose of the hottest influencer and.
Speaker 2: Pop culture news twice a week.
Speaker 1: I'm Sophie Torba and over the weekend, Sophie Guidland has
Speaker 1: ignited rumors of a secret wedding to fitness coach Nicholas White. Now,
Speaker 1: the couple only hard launched their relationship a few weeks ago,
Speaker 1: and she has hinted in a YouTube video.
Speaker 2: That the pair are now married.
Speaker 1: So in this video, while she was showing off her
Speaker 1: body building trophies, she casually referred to Nicholas as her husband.
Speaker 2: Let's throw to the clip. Do you mind I can
Speaker 2: put your name on it? You could have Best Husband
Speaker 2: of the Year twenty twenty four.
Speaker 3: I could put your name on it and an add
Speaker 3: engrave it like a little bikini girl.
Speaker 1: The bread crumbing around this apparent marriage is next level
Speaker 1: because it appears like Sophie is wearing a wedding band
Speaker 1: in this vision and in other vision on an Instagram story,
Speaker 1: she is showing off her left hand with what appears
Speaker 1: to be a ring on it as well. She is
Speaker 1: making no secret about this marriage. Nicholas was also wearing
Speaker 1: a matching wedding band in another Instagram story, so it's
Speaker 1: almost like they are trying to get everyone's attention. It's
Speaker 1: funny how whenever there's an influencer relationship that's in the spotlight,
Speaker 1: you actually see the influencer's hand so much. Yes, just
Speaker 1: thinking about Tammy Henbury in every real and every Instagram story.
Speaker 1: You know, sometimes she's got the ring on, sometimes she's
Speaker 1: got the ring off. Do you think they do it
Speaker 1: for engagement? Oh, definitely, because it's their comment section gets
Speaker 1: filled up with people speculating about their lives, and it's
Speaker 1: a way that they stay relevant. As someone who is married,
Speaker 1: I'm always taking my rings on and off, like particularly
Speaker 1: if I'm cooking or doing the dishes. However, you would
Speaker 1: think that if your relationship was in the spotlight, you
Speaker 1: would make a conceited effort to keep those rings on
Speaker 1: when you're filming.
Speaker 2: I just love how ballsy it is that she's just
Speaker 2: such roped.
Speaker 1: Oh, husband of the Year Award as well, because surely
Speaker 1: she knows everyone is going to be talking about this,
Speaker 1: and her followers have gone crazy over this tidbit of
Speaker 1: information because Sophie and Nicholas have only been together since Descend,
Speaker 1: but that's the first time we saw them appear publicly
Speaker 1: on a holiday in New South Wayes. I mean, there
Speaker 1: are still question marks about what their relationship was actually like.
Speaker 1: Some people said that maybe they're just friends, but it
Speaker 1: has been kept very low profile. That was until Nicholas
Speaker 1: actually appeared in Sophie's YouTube video and that was when
Speaker 1: she spoke about her breast explant surgery. However, he was
Speaker 1: seen like his hand was seen passing her over flowers.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like it was a big hard launch of
Speaker 1: his face. However, of course all her followers have gone
Speaker 1: and found out who he is on Instagram well, because
Speaker 1: anytime these influences they try and soft launch with the
Speaker 1: you know, the boyfriend's hand just appearing in the video.
Speaker 1: They always have these really distinctive tattoos and it's so
Speaker 1: easy for the followers to go and find out.
Speaker 2: Who the guy is.
Speaker 1: Now, if this is true, it is rather interesting timing
Speaker 1: because it comes thirteen months after Sophie ended her marriage
Speaker 1: to Gold Coast dentist doctor Andrew Now. The couple separated
Speaker 1: after just four months of marriage on a very difficult
Speaker 1: and sad term. So this was after their daughter Pixie
Speaker 1: was sadly delivered stillborn, and Sophie and Andrew had a
Speaker 1: really well winned relationship, just like Sophie appears to have
Speaker 1: with Nicholas, because they dated for less than a year
Speaker 1: before getting married in Byron Bay in November twenty twenty two,
Speaker 1: and shortly after they announced they were expecting a baby.
Speaker 1: The difference is though she was friends with doctor Andrew
Speaker 1: for over ten years, so we're not sure if it's
Speaker 1: a similar situation where she has known Nicholas for a
Speaker 1: long time. These relationships have been very different though, although
Speaker 1: they've both been very quick. Sophie was very public about
Speaker 1: her relationship with Andrew. We saw this epic proposal that
Speaker 1: was filmed by a videographer. She also monetized the wedding photos,
Speaker 1: so it was a big controversy at the time because
Speaker 1: she put them behind a paywall in order to get
Speaker 1: subscribers on Instagram. But with Nicholas, it seems like she's
Speaker 1: sort of dancing around the idea of one to be
Speaker 1: ultra private but then enjoying breadcrumbing everyone in order to
Speaker 1: get engagement on her YouTube channel. But maybe that's why
Speaker 1: she has just subtly dropped it because of all the
Speaker 1: backlash she copped last time for monetizing it. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you look at them, but if you look at
Speaker 1: her strategy, it's been to be a bit more real
Speaker 1: and honest on her YouTube channel. She's chosen this real
Speaker 1: doco style way now of presenting some of her But
Speaker 1: I don't think it is real and honest amy because
Speaker 1: it's more like standing back from it. Like I think
Speaker 1: it's more so she's probably got married, didn't want to
Speaker 1: share it with anybody, and now she's thought, fuck, I
Speaker 1: kind of need to mention it to my followers. I'm
Speaker 1: just going to suddenly drop it, and I don't want
Speaker 1: to make this huge deal. I think she is making
Speaker 1: a big effort for it to seem different to the
Speaker 1: other relationship, and I think she has learned a lesson
Speaker 1: about monetizing her relationship and she wants to be open
Speaker 1: with her audience and share Nicholas in her YouTube videos. However,
Speaker 1: she's got to do that in a way that it
Speaker 1: doesn't look like she's just trying to monetize a new
Speaker 1: life event. And I think we've seen, as we touched
Speaker 1: on before, women get very heavily judged online if they
Speaker 1: get into relationships quickly when they get engaged. I mean,
Speaker 1: Tammy Hembro is a complete case study for that. So
Speaker 1: I think that she's like, Oh, I'm just gonna casually
Speaker 1: drop it and then I can just move on. The
Speaker 1: thing I don't understand is why do you have to
Speaker 1: rush into getting married though, Like, if there's so much
Speaker 1: speculation about it, why do you to see how things go?
Speaker 1: I mean, again, it hasn't been confirmed that they are
Speaker 1: actually married, but the rumor mill really went into overdrive
Speaker 1: when Amber from Influencer Updates shared on Friday night that
Speaker 1: an acquaintance of Nicholas reached out to her saying that
Speaker 1: the couple got married overseas. And if this news is legit,
Speaker 1: this is Sophie's fourth marriage. So she actually grew up
Speaker 1: as a Jehovah's witness and she got.
Speaker 2: Married really young.
Speaker 1: And she also married Nathan Wallace in twenty fifteen and
Speaker 1: of course Andrew in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2: So I just don't understand what the rush is.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's just at a point where that's just the
Speaker 1: natural progression feach of her relationships. I mean, maybe once
Speaker 1: you've been married three or four times, it's kind of like, well,
Speaker 1: this is just what we do when I feel serious,
Speaker 1: I'm in love. I wonder if it has anything to
Speaker 1: do with the personality type that become influencers, because you
Speaker 1: look at Tammy Hembro and she's had so many engagements,
Speaker 1: and there's lots of other influencers who've.
Speaker 2: Been married multiple times. Maybe it's something to.
Speaker 1: Do with Wizard of Content arc really, because we have
Speaker 1: spoken a lot about how influencers personal milestones like engagements, weddings,
Speaker 1: having babies is just a great boost for their engagement.
Speaker 1: So maybe it's just like they look at their lives
Speaker 1: like with story arcs, and think, Okay, so I've just
Speaker 1: got out of that marriage thirteen months ago, so if
Speaker 1: I get into this other one, people are going to
Speaker 1: be really excited and want to hear what I've got
Speaker 1: to say and be engaged to what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: I think it's also because they have a disposable income.
Speaker 1: To them, it's not a big deal to save up
Speaker 1: for a wedding. I mean, I don't even this divorce
Speaker 1: seems to have just gone through. It takes, you know,
Speaker 1: quite a while for a divorce to come through. I
Speaker 1: can't even imagine the logistics of planning a divorce and
Speaker 1: then another wedd I don't think I have to plan
Speaker 1: much for a defense, But you've still got the mental
Speaker 1: load of having to lodge it and go through all
Speaker 1: of that upset, and then you've already got over that
Speaker 1: marriage and you're already into another one.
Speaker 2: But even in quotations normal.
Speaker 1: Life, I've never really heard of someone getting married so
Speaker 1: often and so quickly like it does seem to be
Speaker 1: either your celebrity like celebrities seem to do this a lot,
Speaker 1: or influence. People are calling her the Elizabeth Taylor of
Speaker 1: the influencer world. At the moment, I do wonder now
Speaker 1: there is so much speculation whether Sophie's next YouTube video
Speaker 1: is going to confirm this marriage. What I don't get
Speaker 1: is the guys that end up marrying these people that
Speaker 1: have publicly been engaged or married so many different times,
Speaker 1: Because wouldn't you have alarm bells ringing and think, oh,
Speaker 1: maybe I shouldn't propose or maybe I shouldn't get into this.
Speaker 1: I think they just get in such a love bubble.
Speaker 3: This concept and this idea again is exciting me.
Speaker 1: Sarah's Day has announced she's going back to her roots
Speaker 1: and will again be sharing what she eats in a day.
Speaker 1: The controversial influencers stopped creating this style of content after
Speaker 1: receiving backlash, but is one of many influencers jumping back
Speaker 1: on the trend. I literally thought we had left this
Speaker 1: trend back in twenty ten. So did I, and as
Speaker 1: you touched on, this trend originated on YouTube more than
Speaker 1: ten years ago, and if you cast your mind back,
Speaker 1: influencers would share in great detail exactly what they ate
Speaker 1: during the day. Normally it would be ultra healthy, so
Speaker 1: it would include a smoothie, a piece of dark chocolate
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, not a lot of snacking,
Speaker 1: I have to say now, the content did form the
Speaker 1: basis of many OG Australian influencers YouTube channels, including Sarah's Day.
Speaker 2: Now, there was a point where everyone started.
Speaker 1: Waking up to the fact that this was very toxic
Speaker 1: dieting messaging and it did become taboo to actually share
Speaker 1: what you ate during the day.
Speaker 2: However, recently it has.
Speaker 1: Been supercharged by TikTok's algorithm and this trend has made
Speaker 1: a massive resurgence on TikTok, clocking up billions of view
Speaker 1: Sarah's Day is one of those people that is back
Speaker 1: on this trend.
Speaker 2: And what really.
Speaker 1: Annoyed me and didn't sit well with me is she
Speaker 1: started filming this video sharing what she was eating on
Speaker 1: her Instagram story and she said, I'm actually filming the
Speaker 1: full video for YouTube, and she showed off this very
Speaker 1: healthy looking salad. However, she then opened up and said
Speaker 1: when she originally filmed this content back in twenty thirteen,
Speaker 1: that she was in a very bad place with her eating.
Speaker 1: Let's row to what she said.
Speaker 3: First off, this concept and this idea again is exciting
Speaker 3: me because I'm not like back in the day in
Speaker 3: twenty thirteen when I would film these videos, I was
Speaker 3: so fixated on like looking a certain way and like
Speaker 3: being shredded and being at like low body fat, or
Speaker 3: I was like trying to get my period back or
Speaker 3: healing my acne. There was always a specific goal in
Speaker 3: mind in terms of like what I was putting into
Speaker 3: my body, Whereas now I'm thirty one, I have two children.
Speaker 3: I'm just a stay at home mom, like trying to
Speaker 3: work at the same time, and I'm like, I just
Speaker 3: want to fill my body with nutrient vicious foods that
Speaker 3: are going to give like my skin a glow, give
Speaker 3: me energy, allow me to be regular and poop.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I just you know, it really annoys me.
Speaker 1: Because Sarah still has a lot of these toxic videos
Speaker 1: still up on her YouTube channel, and if she's reflected
Speaker 1: back and thought, oh, I wasn't in a good space
Speaker 1: when I shared these, why don't you delete them? Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're still monetized on her channel, and reading between the lines,
Speaker 1: what she's essentially said is that her YouTube channel was
Speaker 1: based on sharing content that promoted disordered eating. Well, it
Speaker 1: gets worse because she then went on to say that
Speaker 1: the main reason she stopped filming this type of content
Speaker 1: is because of the backlash she received, and also because
Speaker 1: these videos were having a negative impact on the way
Speaker 1: that she was eating and the way that she was
Speaker 1: perceiving what she was eating.
Speaker 2: Let's throw to what she said.
Speaker 3: I didn't like watching them because I would sit back
Speaker 3: and be like WHOA, like I eat so much? Or like,
Speaker 3: oh my gosh, I'm like consuming double what that person consumes.
Speaker 3: Or if there's like a really beautiful model and they
Speaker 3: in a certain way, you subconsciously think.
Speaker 2: Like can I be eating like that?
Speaker 3: Like and never want people to watch my videos and
Speaker 3: then feel bad about themselves or like have any kind
Speaker 3: of negative reaction. So I fully pulled back because I
Speaker 3: was like, I just don't want people continuing my content
Speaker 3: and like comparing themselves. Why so yeah, I stopped doing them.
Speaker 1: It's quite ironic because in this video she literally points
Speaker 1: out all the issues with this style of content, but
Speaker 1: there says, nah, I'm back on it again, like it
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense to me. And she also spoke
Speaker 1: a lot about how it's not really authentic because she
Speaker 1: said back in the day, she'd be so focused on
Speaker 1: what she's actually filming that she wouldn't actually show any
Speaker 1: of us knacks. So she said, normally as a mum,
Speaker 1: she would grab a hand, you know, eat some of
Speaker 1: Fox's apple, her son's apple, or you know, finish off
Speaker 1: the leftovers.
Speaker 2: But that's obviously not very aesthetically pleasing for TikTok or
Speaker 2: for you think that annoys me.
Speaker 1: Is she clearly has the awareness to know that these
Speaker 1: videos can have detrimental impacts for what peopleeople are eating
Speaker 1: and the way that they look at food. I mean
Speaker 1: it even had a detrimental impact on the way.
Speaker 2: That she viewed what she was eating. Yet she is.
Speaker 1: Happy to come back and jump back on this trend
Speaker 1: because it's popular at the moment.
Speaker 2: It's clearly in a bid to stay relevant.
Speaker 1: We have spoken a lot about how Sarah's Day's YouTube
Speaker 1: views are dropping off, how she is losing followers, She's
Speaker 1: no longer actually on that momentum of gaining a lot
Speaker 1: of followers, and maybe she's like, well, I've got to
Speaker 1: convert back to what I used to do. And particularly
Speaker 1: TikTok is playing a big role in this, because the
Speaker 1: algorithm is favoring this type of content and it has
Speaker 1: been proven to be serving it up directly to vulnerable
Speaker 1: people who will consume it, and those people are people
Speaker 1: that suffer with disordered eating or an eating disorder, and
Speaker 1: that is so scary. It's important that we don't just
Speaker 1: single out Sarah's Day because there are so many other
Speaker 1: influencers who are jumping back on this trend. PR Queen
Speaker 1: roxy Jusenko is one of these high profile Australians who
Speaker 1: doesn't mind giving her followers an insight into.
Speaker 2: What she's eating.
Speaker 1: Last week, she put up a Q and A asking
Speaker 1: her followers to send in questions, and the majority of
Speaker 1: questions were centered around her diet and how she stays
Speaker 1: so thin, and she did not hold back. She was
Speaker 1: happy to share specific details about how she curbs her cravings,
Speaker 1: her exercise regimes, her hacks were staying.
Speaker 2: Thin, and also even how much she weighs.
Speaker 1: I have seen her sharing her scales so many times
Speaker 1: on her Instagram. I was really shocked when she actually
Speaker 1: outlined like this is my height, this is my weight.
Speaker 1: I don't know how that's helpful information for anyone. It
Speaker 1: just makes people compare themselves to her. And when she
Speaker 1: was asked what she eats during the day, she wrote, okay,
Speaker 1: so this was controversial. I was doing two boiled eggs
Speaker 1: a day and a Greek salad for dinner and the
Speaker 1: world lost its minds on my behalf. So I have
Speaker 1: been working with sm Nutrition and she has done a
Speaker 1: meal plan specifically for me now.
Speaker 2: She did share a very sad.
Speaker 1: Looking photo of her Greek salad with this information, and
Speaker 1: it's not like it was some massive bowl. It was
Speaker 1: like a little plastic container. I'm glad to hear that
Speaker 1: she's no longer eating this, but she's literally just.
Speaker 2: Spelt out how.
Speaker 1: You can look like her if you want to. I mean,
Speaker 1: how many people have probably now started replication. Is looking
Speaker 1: very fit and thin at the moment, and someone who
Speaker 1: I assume people would find aspirational. And it is quite
Speaker 1: disturbing because last year she opened up about how she
Speaker 1: illegally obtained a zenpic and that is because her doctor
Speaker 1: would not prescribe it to her, so she actually got
Speaker 1: someone to go and get it from another state. She
Speaker 1: paid them to drive and get it, and she ended
Speaker 1: up overdosing on a zen pick and almost died in hospital.
Speaker 1: So she wanted to speak out about how dangerous it is.
Speaker 1: But it's crazy about of people who are actually on ozempick,
Speaker 1: like people you would never actually think would be on
Speaker 1: the drug. Well, it is really concerning because there's been
Speaker 1: this huge cultural shift away from the slim, thick era
Speaker 1: that we knew in the twenty tens to this ultra
Speaker 1: slim cut ashy an esque era where they're getting the
Speaker 1: implants removed. Everyone appears to be on ozenpick, but some
Speaker 1: of these what eight in a day? I have seen
Speaker 1: diet teaations or even health gurus doing them, and some
Speaker 1: of the meals actually look very nutritious. Is there some
Speaker 1: aspect of it that is positive or are all of
Speaker 1: these videos just negative? Look? I actually wrote an article
Speaker 1: on this topic for Mum and Mia this week, and
Speaker 1: I did speak to a dietitian and nutritionist called Tanya Ferreto,
Speaker 1: and she said, it's this whole comparison thing that is
Speaker 1: just not helpful. So it's fine for nutritionists to share recipes,
Speaker 1: but when you put it down into this is what
Speaker 1: I eat in a day, people take that on board
Speaker 1: as verbatim that they should be following it. And thanks
Speaker 1: to TikTok, this trend is even more dangerous. I did
Speaker 1: touch on because of the algorithm, and Tanya actually cited
Speaker 1: this groundbreaking research from the University of Melbourne Scott Griffiths,
Speaker 1: and she said that TikTok has been proven to actually
Speaker 1: target users with eating disorders and the study actually found
Speaker 1: that participants with an eating disorder were disproportionately served appearance
Speaker 1: orientated content, with the delivery intensifying over time. And she
Speaker 1: said that this can be extremely triggering for those people
Speaker 1: that have had a history of disordered eating and eating disorders.
Speaker 1: So it's very scary because this app is literally targeting
Speaker 1: vulnerable people, and then there are influencers jumping on this
Speaker 1: trend in a bid to stay relevant. Now, I did
Speaker 1: have a look and TikTok they haven't banned the content. However,
Speaker 1: they do have a disclaimer when you search the hashtag. However,
Speaker 1: that's only on TikTok's desktop version, so it does say
Speaker 1: you're more than your weight. If you or someone you
Speaker 1: know has questions about body image, food or exercise, it
Speaker 1: is important to know that help is out there and
Speaker 1: you are not alone. If you feel uncomfortable, you can
Speaker 1: confide in someone you trust or check out the resources below.
Speaker 1: Please remember to take care of yourselves and each other. Now,
Speaker 1: this is a trend that we're seeing for Tanning as well.
Speaker 1: Like their solution is, oh, rather than banning this content,
Speaker 1: we're just gonna put a bit of exclaim it.
Speaker 2: But everyone takes.
Speaker 1: Cover ourselves legally. Have you guys seen the videos where
Speaker 1: it's people who eat a large amount of unhealthy food
Speaker 1: and they love them. I do have a guilty pleasure
Speaker 1: of watching them. There is one UK creator who does this,
Speaker 1: and she lives off takeaway and she will probably have
Speaker 1: four or five takeaway meals a day, and a lot
Speaker 1: of people are asking, how can you afford this in
Speaker 1: this economic crisis. There's a girl who just eats butter.
Speaker 1: She eats like tubs of butter, and I do think
Speaker 1: that is probably just as unhealthy these influencers who are
Speaker 1: promoting it. But the only thing is it isn't packaged
Speaker 1: up to be aspiration, although.
Speaker 2: That's where it's actually dangerous.
Speaker 1: It's kind of more of a free people and people
Speaker 1: aren't following it to replicate it. That they're following more
Speaker 1: as Wow, it's shot of value and it makes them
Speaker 1: feel better about what they're eating. But I don't necessarily
Speaker 1: think it's that helpful. They're on a positive front. Influencer
Speaker 1: Jade two and she actually shared about this trend and
Speaker 1: it popped up on my feet and I was like,
Speaker 1: oh god, as she jumped on the bandwagon. But this
Speaker 1: is actually what she said, what I eat in a
Speaker 1: day as a pregnant person in week thirty two, whatever
Speaker 1: I feel like eating that day. The same goes for
Speaker 1: when I'm not pregnant, whatever I eat it doesn't determine
Speaker 1: what you should or shouldn't eat, and is not a
Speaker 1: benchmark for your body and the way that it functions.
Speaker 1: This was so refreshing because originally when I saw it,
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, God, like, how bad is this
Speaker 1: that it's a pregnant video diary of what you're eating?
Speaker 1: Because God, if I was tracking what I'm eating, no
Speaker 1: one would want to be following it at the moment. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that is really good of jar Day because some people
Speaker 1: do just sit back and watch the trend and don't
Speaker 1: actually call it out, and that can sometimes be worth worse.
Speaker 1: At least she's using her platform to actually say this
Speaker 1: is a bit fucked.
Speaker 2: They were just so guns ablazing did not care.
Speaker 1: Ruby Tuesday, Matthews is becoming the queen of Neighborhood Watch.
Speaker 1: This week, she shared CCTV vision of a gang of
Speaker 1: youths targeting her street.
Speaker 2: That's important to note not.
Speaker 1: The band, but an actual legitimate group of young people. Yeah. Now,
Speaker 1: in the vision it does show mass teenagers breaking into
Speaker 1: her garage where her Mercedes was parked, and she wrote
Speaker 1: in the Instagram STORYYI at Bangalore four thirty am this morning,
Speaker 1: while sleeping our house and cars were broken into. Group
Speaker 1: of teens are targeting Bangalore as most of our street
Speaker 1: and surrounding streets were affected. Any information, please DM me.
Speaker 1: She then later revealed on Instagram that every house on
Speaker 1: the street had experienced break ins, whether it was their
Speaker 1: car or house being broken into, so.
Speaker 2: Pretty terrifying stuff.
Speaker 1: This is taking me back to a couple of months
Speaker 1: ago when Ruby shared CCTV vision from her mum's house
Speaker 1: and it was thieves stealing this big pot and she
Speaker 1: nicknamed it Popgate and she was calling herself constable Oystergate.
Speaker 1: I absolutely love this side of Ruby, and I love
Speaker 1: that she's utilizing her CCTV vision to help the neighborhood out.
Speaker 1: I think a sponsor needs to get on board, some
Speaker 1: sort of security company you need to partner with Ruby,
Speaker 1: because this is absolutely gold content. It's pretty scary because
Speaker 1: Ruby and her family were asleep when this robbery took
Speaker 1: place and the thieves got into her garage. But she
Speaker 1: actually didn't realize until a neighbor told her.
Speaker 2: Let's throw to what Ruby said about the thieves. They
Speaker 2: took like random medications, all the scripts in my car
Speaker 2: that I had and I just don't get filled because
Speaker 2: I'll just give you scripts into call the scripts just
Speaker 2: the most weird am I firing my other workfone, which
Speaker 2: am like an idiot?
Speaker 1: Anyway, they just took the most random random stuff, like.
Speaker 2: Left the handbag, left the wallets.
Speaker 1: It just took.
Speaker 3: Random cash, medicines and a few other things, but left
Speaker 3: a lot of work computers.
Speaker 1: I'm so shocked that they didn't steal the car and
Speaker 1: that they were just after medication. Well, Ruby thinks it's
Speaker 1: because she has a tracking system on her car, so
Speaker 1: maybe they realized it was on there and they wouldn't
Speaker 1: be able to get away with it. Something similar happened
Speaker 1: to some friends of mine recently. They had some teenagers
Speaker 1: break into their house and they actually took their mobile phones,
Speaker 1: their purse, and also their car, their.
Speaker 2: Purse, sorry, how old are you fifty years old? Their wallet,
Speaker 2: their wallet, then purse whatever, pay and.
Speaker 1: Anyway, my friend was thinking, oh, how foolish of me
Speaker 1: to leave my keys to the car on the whole stand,
Speaker 1: And the police actually said sometimes it's better that way
Speaker 1: because you don't want the robbers to go.
Speaker 2: Trying to find in the house.
Speaker 1: That's when they start disrupting people to start, So it
Speaker 1: just in case I've got to leave all my valuables
Speaker 1: in an easy to grab spot. Personally, wouldn't be that
Speaker 1: upset if someone took my car. I feel like it
Speaker 1: is on its last legs at the moment. There has
Speaker 1: been a huge spike in these sorts of crimes, particularly
Speaker 1: in Byron, with these crimes centering around car theft and
Speaker 1: also break in, and interestingly, there has been an increase
Speaker 1: in what they're calling post and boast, so that's when
Speaker 1: robbers are actually filming and photographing their crime spreeze, so
Speaker 1: they're uploading all of this to Instagram and TikTok.
Speaker 2: Is this like the Bling Ring?
Speaker 1: Well, I think it's more that teenagers know that they
Speaker 1: probably just get a slap on the wrists for doing Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the thing. There's nothing really that the police can
Speaker 1: do because they're too young to throw them in prison
Speaker 1: and they know that they know they're going to get away.
Speaker 1: But also half the time, I mean I had my
Speaker 1: car broken into last year, even when at l Steward
Speaker 1: as well, I think that it's really difficult to actually
Speaker 1: catch people in the act.
Speaker 2: They don't have a lot of police time to look
Speaker 2: into all of this.
Speaker 1: But you also need to literally have the person on
Speaker 1: camera taking the car. That's what yeah, Ruby's provided. And
Speaker 1: the interesting thing is that Byne Bay is a celebrity
Speaker 1: hot spot, so people are obviously thinking, hmm, there's a
Speaker 1: lot of wealthy people around here that I can steal from. However,
Speaker 1: those wealthy people actually have CCTV footage.
Speaker 4: I mean I hear rumors about myself every single day,
Speaker 4: like genuinely, I open TikTok. There's a new rumor.
Speaker 2: UK influencers.
Speaker 1: Saffron Barker has stunned her followers by revealing she caught
Speaker 1: up with her ex Tyler Dixon whilst holidaying in the US. Now,
Speaker 1: so if this isn't the ex we're expecting her to
Speaker 1: be seeing, No, this is.
Speaker 2: Very left of field.
Speaker 1: So Saffron has just gone through a very public breakup
Speaker 1: with new Cheese recruit Lewis Reesezamt. We have spoken about
Speaker 1: this in detail on this podcast and when Lewis and
Speaker 1: Saffron were together, as listeners will know, he did jet
Speaker 1: off on an tense ten week training camp to the
Speaker 1: US in the hopes of getting signed by an NFL team,
Speaker 1: and Saffron was supposed to be meeting up with Lewis
Speaker 1: in the US to celebrate, but when she found out
Speaker 1: that he allegedly cheated on her, of course she had
Speaker 1: to change up her trip. So she still went to
Speaker 1: the US, but instead she visited la and Coachella with
Speaker 1: some friends. And followers were convinced that Saffron was going
Speaker 1: to try and catch up with Lewis while she was
Speaker 1: over there, either to rekindle the relationship or get some closure.
Speaker 1: But she has surprised all of us by catching up
Speaker 1: with her previous ex, Tyler Dixon. Yeah, this was not
Speaker 1: on my bingo card for twenty twenty four, but it
Speaker 1: is a bit of a power move for her, particularly
Speaker 1: because she has been so public about it. She's spoken
Speaker 1: about it on her podcast, she spoke about it on
Speaker 1: her YouTube channel. It's not like she's trying to keep
Speaker 1: this a secret. They actually met during Lockdown and were
Speaker 1: together for about a year, and he was a permanent
Speaker 1: fixture on her YouTube channel and followers, we were very
Speaker 1: surprised when out of the blue they seemed to call
Speaker 1: it quits.
Speaker 2: But following the.
Speaker 1: Split, there were all these persistent rumors that Saffron cheated
Speaker 1: on Tyler during a girl's trip to Dubai with none
Speaker 1: other than Love Island's Luca Bish, and it's all very
Speaker 1: convoluted and ancestral because Luca Bish ended up dating fellow
Speaker 1: Love Islander Gemma Olwen, who was also rumored to have
Speaker 1: dated Saffron's most recent ex, Lewis recent Zama, that is
Speaker 1: such a mouthful, but it's all very weird. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: a lot of people started talking about Tyler because it
Speaker 1: was in Dubai that Saffron found out that Lewis was
Speaker 1: allegedly cheating on her, and people were like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: suck shit, because you cheated on Tyler in Dubai, which
Speaker 1: she has come out and said that is not the
Speaker 1: case at all. It was obvious to me that Saffron
Speaker 1: had just dropped her catching up with Tyler as a
Speaker 1: bit of a fuck you to everyone, being like, see,
Speaker 1: we are on good terms and I think.
Speaker 2: And I didn't shet. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And because she has obviously been the topic of conversation
Speaker 1: on TikTok recently because of her split from Lewis, Riesi's
Speaker 1: emmet and a lot of people have been saying, well,
Speaker 1: Sefron did the same thing to her ex, so I
Speaker 1: don't feel sorry for her. Here. It's clear that she
Speaker 1: wants to put these rumors to bed, because she dropped
Speaker 1: it not only on her YouTube channel, but also on
Speaker 1: her dating podcast. Let's throw it to Safron addressing the
Speaker 1: rumor's head on.
Speaker 4: He just happened to be in La at the same
Speaker 4: time that I was in La, so he messaged me, like,
Speaker 4: I'm literally around the corner, and we went to the
Speaker 4: grocery store and got erawan together. Anyways, everyone suddenly thinks
Speaker 4: I'm secretly on this trip Tyler the entire time and
Speaker 4: we're back together, So I just like to confirm not true.
Speaker 4: But like, I literally love him. He is one of
Speaker 4: the nicest people I've ever ever met, like genuinely has
Speaker 4: the biggest heart. Like every single person that's met him
Speaker 4: says how amazing he is. For some reason, there was
Speaker 4: always this rumor that I had cheated on Tyler, which
Speaker 4: I don't know where it's come from because I've never
Speaker 4: cheated on anyone in my life, nor would I Like,
Speaker 4: that's just not part of my morals at all. Basic
Speaker 4: you're on social it's I never fell out with him,
Speaker 4: Like nothing bad happened at all, Like literally we just
Speaker 4: split for like no really reason. Like there was just
Speaker 4: I don't know, Like I just felt like I was
Speaker 4: at a different stage in my life and so did he,
Speaker 4: and like that was genuinely the reason as to why
Speaker 4: we split. There was nothing deeper than that.
Speaker 1: Before Saffron had even revealed that she caught up with Tyler,
Speaker 1: super Sluss had already connected the dots because Saffron and
Speaker 1: Tyler shared nearly identical photos of their luck. But that's
Speaker 1: not incidental either. Like the thing is that people might
Speaker 1: be like, oh, well, maybe she had to come out
Speaker 1: and say it, but when you're on YouTube and social
Speaker 1: media for years like Saffron is, you know that people
Speaker 1: are going to.
Speaker 2: Connect those ties.
Speaker 1: But she claimed that she wasn't following him, so she
Speaker 1: didn't know that he'd shared it. But then it's like,
Speaker 1: if you're not following him, then how are you on
Speaker 1: such good We're not out to lunch with someone, even
Speaker 1: if they're trying to do it sneakily, you know that
Speaker 1: they're taking a photo of their food. And they were
Speaker 1: at Saffron's favorite place, air One, which is that real
Speaker 1: expensive soup marko. Can you imagine going there? Literally every
Speaker 1: YouTuber is there filming, Oh what I got from Air one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but do you know what that stands for?
Speaker 1: No? So backwards, it's nowhere. I just know they charge
Speaker 1: like wounded balls for smoothies named after Haley, but it's
Speaker 1: like forty five US dollars for fucking smoothie.
Speaker 2: Do you know what?
Speaker 1: I am loving though? The fact that she is dropping
Speaker 1: these subtle fuck you's, like I am here for it.
Speaker 1: And on her podcast she even said that Tyler is
Speaker 1: the nicest boyfriend she's ever had, and she gushed it
Speaker 1: that he's doing so well in life and that everyone
Speaker 1: stand their relationship and wants them back together, which I
Speaker 1: wonder if they potentially could get back together. Nah, she's
Speaker 1: just using him. I think that she's played it very well.
Speaker 1: She has put to bed rumors that she cheated. She
Speaker 1: now looks like the good person. Lewis looks like the
Speaker 1: bad person.
Speaker 2: Like that.
Speaker 1: She is touching on all of the TikTok rumors on
Speaker 1: her podcast, because that's something that I think more influencers
Speaker 1: need to do on their podcast because these are the
Speaker 1: things that we want to hear about. So just pretend
Speaker 1: rather than pretending happening, particularly because she's she's got a
Speaker 1: dating podcast, so we actually want.
Speaker 2: To hear about your data.
Speaker 1: But you think that's because Spotify are involved, so they're like,
Speaker 1: you have to talk about this. It's kind of like
Speaker 1: the Kick Pod when they've got producers involved and like,
Speaker 1: hang on, people just want to hear about your linse.
Speaker 1: I mean that being said, I do want to find
Speaker 1: out more about what actually happened, because she's trying to
Speaker 1: be the bigger person and not go into all of
Speaker 1: the mercury, but we want to keep some clues, like
Speaker 1: it's quite clear that he cheated on her allegedly. I
Speaker 1: did a little stalk into Tyler because I haven't even
Speaker 1: looked at his Instagram since he and Saffron broke up.
Speaker 2: I refollowed him as soon as I heard they caught up. Well,
Speaker 2: he's got one.
Speaker 1: Hundred and seventeen thousand followers, so and it says on
Speaker 1: his Instagram that he lives half in London and then
Speaker 1: in Dubai. And he also looks like I'm not trying
Speaker 1: to be superficial, but he's beefed up a bit. He
Speaker 1: looks a lot better because he kind of looked a
Speaker 1: bit little boy when they.
Speaker 2: Were going out.
Speaker 1: Really came from a very wealthy family to begin with.
Speaker 1: And I think that the reason that they broke up
Speaker 1: is because he didn't want to just be Saffron's handbag
Speaker 1: and sit around her house with her family.
Speaker 2: He wanted to go and do something with this. I
Speaker 2: got the vie.
Speaker 1: The Saffron's mum, Wendy wasn't a fan of his. There
Speaker 1: seems to be some boyfriend that she didn't like.
Speaker 2: No, it was an implication that he was too short
Speaker 2: for her. Yeah, she always.
Speaker 1: Kept referencing how she wanted some real six foot four
Speaker 1: guy because they met through Instagram, and I think he
Speaker 1: claimed he was a lot taller than he actually is.
Speaker 2: I reckon Wendy.
Speaker 1: Her mum is a big fan of him because they
Speaker 1: reiterated that he's the nicest boyfriend she's ever had. I
Speaker 1: think her terrible relationship with Lewis has confirmed to her
Speaker 1: that he was actually a nice guy. It's funny in
Speaker 1: hindsight when a dickhead seems like less of a dickhead. Anyway,
Speaker 1: that is where we're going to leave things today. If
Speaker 1: you do want to hear more content from us, though,
Speaker 1: we do drop a subs episode every Thursday that is
