1 00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: Hello and welcome to Outspoken. It's your dose of the 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,840 Speaker 1: hottest influencer and pop culture news twice a week. I'm 3 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:12,559 Speaker 1: Amy Torber and coming up on today's show, Sophie Kasha 4 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: throws a serious shade at her ex fiance Matti Garrick, 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 1: the ungrateful influences at this year's Australian Open, and our 6 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 1: Friday Debrief. The first m Davies Hen's weekend in Bali 7 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: has been making headlines. The bride to be's guest list 8 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: is under the spotlight, as well as the outfit she 9 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: wore to a beach club, Kate, can you tell us more? 10 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 2: Well? 11 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: The mainstream media have been pretty cruel about m's Hen's looks, 12 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,919 Speaker 1: so for those who haven't seen it, she wore this 13 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: white bando style bra top and had a mini skirt 14 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: made up of chule. It kind of looked like a 15 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: two two and what set people off the most was 16 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: the visible G string that sat just above the skirt, 17 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: which was embroidered with the name Missus G. And all 18 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: I could think about was the Chris Lily character mister G. 19 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: When I saw it, it reminded me more of Kath 20 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: and Kim. Remember Kim used to rock a very visible 21 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: G string. I can see why this G string was 22 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: a bit of a focus in the mainstream media because 23 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: every single Instagram story I saw on Saturday featured it. 24 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: It was either a close up of m twerking and 25 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: the G string in it, or just dancing around. She 26 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: was having the best time. She probably didn't care what 27 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: was being written about her. Well. The Daily Mail run 28 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 1: with a story asking its readers to weigh in as 29 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 1: to whether they thought the outfit was appropriate for her 30 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 1: Hen's party. I mean, they clearly were expecting some pretty 31 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: vile comment trail. There were over two hundred comments on 32 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: the story, and I was actually taken aback about how 33 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: vile they were. I mean, I know the Daily Mail 34 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: is known for that type of commentary, but it was 35 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 1: next level. I really felt for m Now her outfit 36 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: even made international news, with The Sun running with the 37 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: headline Taki Mum leaves little to the imagination and Hendu 38 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: Brah and skirt duo that even show off her G string. 39 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: I really felt like these media publications weren't asking people 40 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: to weigh in on the outfit. They were more asking 41 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: people to weigh in about how they felt about a 42 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: mum wearing an outfit like, Yes, there was a lot 43 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: of shame involved, and I felt for em because this 44 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: was literally her first trip away from her daughter. It's 45 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: such an exciting time in her life. She's been juggling 46 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: motherhood and also planning her wedding. Why can't she let 47 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,839 Speaker 1: her hair down? And we're a cool outfit? Does being 48 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: a mum mean that you're not allowed to show off 49 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: any skin? You're not allowed to wear something cool? Look, 50 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 1: it's not really my vibe. I personally wouldn't be rocking 51 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: a g string to my hen's party, but we're all 52 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: very different people. Em used to own her own fashion brand. 53 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: She's very up on the trend. But also this was 54 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: a hen's party in Bali where everyone was wearing bathers. 55 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: It was more of a bayor bottoms than a launder age. 56 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 1: Like the shaming, that's what I find vile about it. Yeah, 57 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: that really grinded my gears. And the thing is, as 58 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: you said, Amy, she used to own her own fashion label. 59 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: She's very up with the trends and back in July 60 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: last year, models were wearing exposed g strings on the 61 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: runway at Paris Fashion Week. It's a trend that's trying 62 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: to make a comeback for quite a couple of years now. Also, 63 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: I feel like, because she is such a massive influence, 64 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: she's trying to make a statement at her Hen's Party. 65 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: She doesn't want to copy what everyone else has done. 66 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: I've never seen this visible G string used as a 67 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: Hen's Party outfit. It's a bit like when we saw 68 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: Tammy trying to have a pink dress and have that moment. 69 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: They're all trying to have a moment and create a trend. 70 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: I wonder if we'll be seeing more visible Hen's Party 71 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,239 Speaker 1: g's dress and somehow don't think it's going to go 72 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: off as much as Tammy's pink dress. I'm actually more 73 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 1: impressed than and managed to wear this outfit while she 74 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: had her period, because she opened up in her stories 75 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: that when she landed in Balley she got her first 76 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: period post baby. The timing, I mean, doesn't this always happen? 77 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: Your period always rears its head at the most inopportune moment. Yeah, 78 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: isn't it the way? Anytime you have to wear white, 79 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: that's when your period arrives. Now everyone has been really 80 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: invested in EM's Hen's Party guest list, and that is 81 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: because EM's bridesmaid and fellow influence a Lily Brown has 82 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: a long standing feud with EM's other besties Lucy Jackson 83 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: and Nikki Westcott, and seeing this Lily is a bridesmaid, 84 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: you would assume that she would have had a lot 85 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: to do with the plan of the event. So I 86 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: was wondering whether Lucy and nicky'ste might have got lost 87 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: in the mail. Well, some people thought that Lily's invite 88 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: got lost in the mail because in some of the 89 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: early Instagram stories that were coming out from Bali, Lily 90 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: wasn't in any of them, and people were like, where 91 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: is she? But she suddenly popped up the next day 92 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: and Lucy and Nicky were there, So Lily did the 93 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: right thing inviting them. I would have loved to be 94 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: a fly on the wall, particularly, it looked like a 95 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 1: very boozy weekend and that's usually when fights break out. 96 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 1: They had those IV drips after the first night to 97 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: help with the hangovers, and they said these are ahead 98 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: of round two. I mean, I would pay a lot 99 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: of money to know what actually happened behind the scenes, 100 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: because surely once alcohols involved, feelings are going to get 101 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: out there A notable absentee was Tammy Hembro So Em 102 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: and Tammy they've been friends for a really long time now, 103 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: and Em attended Tammy's wedding back in November, and after 104 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: Em shared a reel of the event, a follower asked 105 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: why Tammy wasn't there, to which Em respotted she had 106 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: to look after her brothers. I mean, Tammy has done 107 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: a lot of traveling at the end of last year 108 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 1: and also this year, she probably just couldn't add another 109 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: overseas trip to her list, and she is a newly wed, 110 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: probably wanting to spend a lot of time with Matt. 111 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: It's really hard for me to get my head around 112 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: how quickly this wedding is approaching, because it only feels 113 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: like yesterday when Em got engaged. But that was two 114 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: years ago, back in March twenty twenty three. So EM's 115 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: engagement made big news too because she got engaged under 116 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: the Brooklyn Bridge in New York and everyone just thought 117 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: it was the most esthetic proposal. 118 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 2: Now. 119 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,119 Speaker 1: Em also only just gave birth to her first child, 120 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: Aler back in August, so her and job have packed 121 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: a lot in the last two years. I'm so excited 122 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: for the wedding it's on the twenty second of February. 123 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: Do we think from the choice of Hen's party outfit 124 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: that we're going to see something quite outrageous in a 125 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: number of her wedding looks. Yes. I think she'll have 126 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: a similar second or third dress to Tammy Hembrose. You 127 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: know that one she wore later in the night when 128 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: she was cutting the cave. Sure one. Yeah, it kind 129 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: of looked like lingerie. I think something like that. Serena Williams. Yeah, 130 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 1: I don't think she plays Serena Waitness. Is that true, 131 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: Serena Williams, Yes, Serena. A number of influencers have been 132 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: slammed for their lack of tennis knowledge and labeled ungrateful 133 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: after being gifted free airfares and prime seats to the 134 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: Australian Open by big name brands. One influencer was caught 135 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: on camera saying she predicted Sabrina Williams could win this 136 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: year's Open, whilst Tammy Hembro told her snapchat followers. 137 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 3: This heading to the Australina ben watch some tennis, I 138 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 3: definitely won't be watching. No, I'll be. 139 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: I'm not like. 140 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:45,599 Speaker 3: Into the tennis so much when I'm there. Yeah, like 141 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 3: I'll watch to like fit in, to look like I've belong. 142 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: This is a very privileged comment. I'll get into it 143 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 1: whilst I'm there. I'll get into it whilst I have 144 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 1: the best seats in the house. Well, to add insult 145 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: to injury, Matt and Tammy seats looked like they were 146 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: literally sitting on center core and as a tennis fan, 147 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: I couldn't help but feel so jealous. It does leave 148 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: a bit of a bad taste in your mouth. The 149 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: Sabrina Williams comment really throws me because obviously that influencer 150 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: was referring to Serena Williams, but she's been retired for 151 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: a couple of years now, so who was she actually referring. 152 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: I think she might have been trying to say Seblenka, 153 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: which is one of the women who is set to 154 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: take out this year's title, who won last year's Australian Open. Well, 155 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: just back to Tammy's commentary, she has been slammed by 156 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: tennis fans. One caught her out online saying I'm so 157 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: sick of brand sending influencers who don't watch tennis. Another wrote, 158 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: I get the influencers are there to promote and do 159 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: a job, but it's such a waste of space slash 160 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: tickets to send people who don't watch or pretend to 161 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: like tennis. I've really noticed in the past couple of 162 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: years that the Australian Open has had this transformation. It's 163 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: become a cool girl event. Everyone wants to be seen 164 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: at it, and I think it has a lot to 165 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: do with the fact that horse racing is very on 166 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: the nose. That used to be an event where you 167 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: could get dressed up, you could show off your outfits, 168 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: and now that's what the Australian Open and also f 169 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: One has become. Yeah, and back when horse racing was 170 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: really popular, the high profile of people going weren't there 171 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: to see the horse racing. They were there to socialize 172 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: and party in the marquees. And that's the thing where 173 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: the Australian Open. They have created such an amazing event 174 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: that there's a huge fan village there. Now you can eat, 175 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: you can drink there, there's so many things to do 176 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: that you don't actually even have to watch the tennis. 177 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: You can just be a part of the atmosphere. And 178 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: I get the vibe that a lot of influencers are 179 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: spending more time taking photos of them with the core 180 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: in the background that they're actually spending watching the game. 181 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 1: Whoever's doing the marketing and the brand partnerships at the 182 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: Australian Open needs to be commended because over the last 183 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: couple of years we have seen it go from strength 184 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: to strength. There are a lot of high profile brands 185 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: that you wouldn't normally associate with the tennis getting on board, 186 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: and also a lot of corporate tickets being sold. So 187 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 1: brands like White Fox Boutique, they're jumping on board and 188 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: buying boxes at the tennis and hosting influences a bit 189 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: like we've seen at concerts. I've also noticed that a 190 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 1: lot of these clothing brands, like White Fox and Revenue, 191 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: they have incorporated tennis care into their summer launchers as well, 192 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: so they understand the power that the Australian Open has 193 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: and that people want to look the part when they're 194 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: going there. There's been a lot of eyes on the 195 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: Ralph Laren influencer activation. So Ralph Lauren are the Australian 196 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: Open's official clothing partner this year, they have been for 197 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: the last four years and they have put on a 198 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: massive influencer trips, so they've been flying out a lot 199 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: of influencers and putting them up in hotels and giving 200 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: them a real luxurious experience. Of course, they're also getting 201 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: prime seats to the tennis. So some of the big 202 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: name influencers in attendance at the Ralph Lauren event have 203 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: been Sammy Robinson, Millie Ford, Sammy Guggenheimer, Rebecca Harding, and 204 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: Sophia Beg. Morgan Waterhouse also got an invite. I'm not 205 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: quite sure how he managed to get a ticket because 206 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: he really isn't in the same playing field as a 207 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: number of those influencers. It's quite interesting because in one 208 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 1: YouTube video and influencer spoke about how Ralph Lauren had 209 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: brought in an expert to bring their guests up to 210 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: speed on the rules of tennis. Let's have a listen 211 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: to what we said. 212 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 4: Once we got there, we headed into the Polo Ralphloranz suite. 213 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 4: They had cocktails and cannon piece for us, and we 214 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 4: just chilled and talked and got picks, and then Ava 215 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 4: was here teaching us a bit about the tennis because 216 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 4: we didn't really know what was going on, and then 217 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 4: we headed down into the court. This was my first 218 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 4: time at the Ausuelian Open, and honestly, I'm in tennis 219 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 4: going out. 220 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: There's also been a number of influencers called out for 221 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: talking during games, and for anyone who is familiar with tennis, 222 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: it is a game of etiquette. You have to be 223 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: quiet during the points and the players will be quite 224 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: vocal if people aren't being quiet and never watching a 225 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: number of games where there'd be some fans who were 226 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: cheering during points and the tennis players would get really 227 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: agitated and speak to the umpire because it's just against 228 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: the rules. You can't have people barracking or speaking during points. 229 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 230 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: Well, sports presenter and producer Michelle Escobar into the debate 231 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 1: on TikTok, saying this. 232 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 5: I'm talking about the influencers who are getting paid by brands, 233 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 5: who are working with brands, who are getting very privileged 234 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 5: positions and freebiz, and are also working at the Australian 235 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 5: Open while not even knowing the basic rules of tennis. Now, 236 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 5: up until a few years ago, you had to work 237 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 5: very very hard to be able to break into the 238 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 5: media landscape, but now it just seems like if you 239 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 5: have a lot of followers, you can jump the queue. 240 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 5: The problem with that is that you're just hiring people 241 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 5: based on numbers and not knowledge, so they don't actually 242 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 5: know what they're talking about. 243 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 1: Michelle went on to say that there were a number 244 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: of sports content creators doing really good work at the 245 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: Australian Open who have a genuine passionate interest for the game, 246 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: and she hoped that they got more opportunities. I can 247 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: totally see where Michelle is coming from, because it is 248 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: utterly frustrating as a tennis lover to see people there 249 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,079 Speaker 1: who don't necessarily appreciate it and who appear to be 250 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: taking the piss and making a bit of a mockery 251 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: of such a beautiful game. But we've got to look 252 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: at it from a marketing perspective and which brands are 253 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: inviting which influencers. It doesn't really make sense for White 254 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: Fox boutique to invite a sports content creator. They want 255 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: to invite a high profile influencer who's going to look 256 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: good in the clothes, who's going to take lots of 257 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 1: photos and be able to provide that content they want afterwards. 258 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: It's also helping open up the sport to a new 259 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: category of people who haven't watched tennis before. Yeah, it's 260 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: all about getting the Australian Open brand and the game 261 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: of tennis out to as many eyeballs as possible, and 262 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,959 Speaker 1: that's what's happening when you invite all of these influencers. 263 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: I think it also just comes down to the individual 264 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: responsibility of the influencer to not act like a jerk 265 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: and have respect for the event that they've been invited to. Hopefully, 266 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: for some influencers this might have kicked off their love 267 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: of the sport now yeah, And I think it just 268 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: shows what a great job the Australian Opens marketing team 269 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: have done to actually put the event on such a pedestal. 270 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: The people are jealous that influence as are getting free 271 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 1: tickets because it's not a new thing. Influence has are 272 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: gifted free tickets to concerts, so many other sporting events. 273 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: But it's really put people's noses out of joint because 274 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: they want to be there so much. So we've got 275 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 1: to remember that this has actually grown from just being 276 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 1: a sporting event. As we've discussed, there's a real festival 277 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 1: vibe around this. There's pop up bars, there's a lot 278 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: of brands they're trying to sell products, so that is 279 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: also why people are reaching out to lifestyle influencers and 280 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: not just sporting figures. 281 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 6: The funny thing about all of this is poor Mads. 282 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 6: She didn't sign up for this. She got really skinny, 283 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 6: really fit, sexy mama when we started dating. 284 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 7: Now you've got this. 285 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 6: So beautiful. 286 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: Wiggle pajama. Entrepreneur Sophie Keisha has thrown serious shade at 287 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: her expiance Maddi Garrick during a lengthy Q and A 288 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: with her new girlfriend, Maddie Presspackis. Sophie, who is just 289 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: weeks away from giving birth, couldn't resist referring to her 290 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: ex as a cheetah and said she's finally found someone 291 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: who gets on with her family. So the whole idea 292 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: of this Q and A was for followers to get 293 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: to know her new girlfriend. And that's why I think 294 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: it was extra awkward that these shots were being fired 295 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: in saying that though I was really invested in this 296 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: Q and A because I've been really curious to see 297 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: the dynamic between Sophie and her new girlfriend. There is 298 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: a ten year age gap, so I wanted to see 299 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: what they're actually like behind closed doors, and we were 300 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: granted a half an hour glimpse into their lives. So 301 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: Sophie explained that her kids were in bed early for once, 302 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: so it was a great opportunity for her followers to 303 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: get to know Maddie, who she referred to as the 304 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: greatest human in the world. Big title now. She went 305 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: public about her relationship with the AFLW player back in 306 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: November in an exclusive interview with Stella magazine where she 307 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: spoke about her pregnancy and love life. It was a 308 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: really casual Q and A because both of the women 309 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: were dressed in their pjs, Keisha branded, of course, and 310 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: Sophie was enjoying cheesecake from Uber Eat. I think that's 311 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: one of her pregnancy cravings. I was gonna say, tell 312 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,359 Speaker 1: me you're pregnant without telling me you're pregnant. It sounds delightful. 313 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: She did add a disclaimer in the question box, saying 314 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: that there was a no dickhead policy and people would 315 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: be blocked immediately if they crossed the line with their questions. Now, 316 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: this Q and A did spark a lot of commentary 317 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: about Sophie and Maddie's dynamic, and I had to agree 318 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: with a few comments in our Facebook community. Our times, 319 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: it did feel like Sophie was almost parenting Maddie and 320 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: coaching her to give her the right answer. So one 321 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: of our listeners joke that they were worried Maddie would 322 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: get a question wrong and get told off. It did 323 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: feel like that. I mean, as I said, there is 324 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: a ten year age gap between the couple, Maddie's only 325 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: twenty four, and I have to say, as a side note, 326 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: she seemed really sweet and like a nice person. She 327 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: seemed to answer every question almost like she was being 328 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: interviewed on the footy field. She was very diplomatic and 329 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: sort of matter of fact about it. You could tell 330 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: that she was really desperate and under pressure to say 331 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: the right thing as well, because Sophie kept glaring at 332 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: her and sort of being like yeah, So not only 333 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: was she trying to impress Sophie's followers, but also Sophie. Yeah. 334 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 1: Now there was a question about the age gap and 335 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: whether it felt loud at times. This is what Maddie said. 336 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 2: No. Like at the start, honestly, I was a bit like, well, 337 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 2: I would didn't plan to have two kids so at 338 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 2: my age. But no, I feel like soph and I 339 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 2: we like the same things, we have the same interests, 340 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 2: we bond over a lot of the same things. 341 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 7: So, yeah, I feel like you are a much more 342 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 7: mature person of your age then I know than I've 343 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 7: ever met, and I feel like I'm a young soul. 344 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: I meet you halfway. 345 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, we definitely meet halfway. 346 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: As someone who has a history of dating younger guys, 347 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: I could recognize that Sophie was trying to say that 348 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: thing that we all say where you're like, oh, no, 349 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: this person I'm dating is very mature for their age. 350 00:16:58,320 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 3: It's soul. 351 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, whether it's true or not. And I think it's 352 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: what you tell yourself until you break up with them, 353 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: and then you tell everyone, oh, they were so immature. Yeah, 354 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: she was really trying to get that message across. She 355 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,719 Speaker 1: said that Maddie was mature beyond her years, and she 356 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: had her life together. She owns her own home, her 357 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 1: own car, and has her finances well in order. Again, 358 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 1: it almost felt like she was talking about her own child, 359 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: like they take the bin out at night time, they 360 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 1: mow the lawn, they walk the dog like that sort 361 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 1: of vibe. Well, the commentary around finances is interesting because 362 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: I think Sophie is trying to extinguish any negative commentary 363 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: that might come up about Maddie trying to be a 364 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 1: gold digger. Yeah, I think so too. The only time 365 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: that Sophie admitted to noticing the age gap is when 366 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: they're having a sing along in the car together and 367 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: Maddie doesn't know some of the songs. Yeah, that really 368 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: makes you feel old. We have a couple of friends 369 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: who are six or seven years younger than us and 370 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: they didn't know her hands and was and I was like, 371 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: oh my god. Now. Throughout this Q and A as 372 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: we touched on, Sophie threw a lot of shade at 373 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: her ex fiance, Maddie Garrick, and I hope that this 374 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: segment doesn't get too confusing because Sophie's X does have, 375 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 1: of course the same name as a new girlfriend, and 376 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: then the ex before was also an AFLW players. There's 377 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,239 Speaker 1: a lot of crossover with these partners, as we say 378 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: it all the time. But she's obviously got a time. Yeah, 379 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: definitely now. Sophie dramatically called off her engagement to Mattie 380 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 1: Garrick in twenty twenty two. God was it twenty twenty two, 381 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 1: And that was shortly after flying to Italy, where Maddie 382 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 1: was playing basketball and at the time Sophie made it 383 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: very clear that she had been cheated on, allegedly. Allegedly. Now, 384 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: the first potshot that was herld was Sophie admitting that 385 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: she's the one who holds a lot of insecurities about 386 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: the age gap in her relationship with Mattie press Packers, 387 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: and that is due to the way she was treated 388 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 1: by Mattie Garrick. Here's what she said on that. 389 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 7: I will say I'm the one with the insecurities about 390 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 7: the age gap. 391 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like I don't know what's say. No, 392 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 2: I I just I don't see the difference between the 393 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 2: age but I see sinsecurities and yeah, I always just 394 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 2: say that you've got nothing to worry about. Yeah, her, 395 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 2: but before where lives people, and that's all the matters. 396 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 2: We bond over good things and yeah, we've got our 397 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 2: life set out together, so that's good. 398 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 7: We've got big plans. 399 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 8: Baby. 400 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 1: I wonder how Maddie Presspackers felt about these comments being 401 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: thrown in when this is a Q and A where 402 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 1: we're supposed to be getting to know her, because it 403 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 1: kind of makes Sophie sound like she's hung up on 404 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: Maddie Garrick. And it's still very hurt by her actions. Yeah, 405 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: and when someone talks badly about their ex it's usually 406 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: a bit of a red flag because you're like, Oh, 407 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: if we were to break up, is this how you're 408 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 1: going to talk about me? 409 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 410 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 4: Now. 411 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: Sophie also went on further to say that her kids 412 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: have been hurt in the past by her exes, and 413 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: she didn't enter into a relationship with Mattie two point 414 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 1: zero until her son Bobby gave her permission. She also 415 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: said that she's finally found someone that gets along with 416 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: her family. I'm not sure if she meant her immediate 417 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: family as in Jared and the kids, or if she 418 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: met her extended family, because it's very clear that Maddi 419 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 1: Press Packers has made a huge effort with Sophie's kids. 420 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: She sounds like she genuinely loves them and has a 421 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,880 Speaker 1: really great bond with them, which is very sweet. Oh, 422 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: it's lovely to see and it seems very genuine. In 423 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,959 Speaker 1: terms of Sophie's extended family, there have been a lot 424 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: of question marks about how her relationship is with them, 425 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 1: particularly her sister who she was on survival with. There's 426 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: been rumors that there's a feud between them. I wonder 427 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: if that had anything to do with Matti Garrick. It 428 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,360 Speaker 1: did seem like there was a bit of a tension 429 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: with one family member that they were referring to in 430 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: this Q and A. This Q and A also revealed 431 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 1: that Sophie and Matti press Packers first hooked up just 432 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: three weeks after she called off her engagement to Maddie Garrick. 433 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: So the couple first met in twenty twenty two at 434 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 1: Electric Nightclub on Chapel Street at three am, and by 435 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: three thirty am they were sharing their first kiss. 436 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 8: I'll throw it back to twenty twenty two. I had 437 00:20:53,040 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 8: returned from a unfortunate overseas trip and I it was 438 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 8: like three weeks later, I think me and Kateland shout 439 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 8: out to Kateland. We had this most random, spontaneous day 440 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 8: where we like just went for lunch during the day 441 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 8: and then somehow we were at a nightclub at three 442 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 8: o'clock in the morning and saw this little smile looking 443 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 8: back at me and the bar and within five minutes 444 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 8: I said, I'm gonna. 445 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 7: Kiss you, and I did so. 446 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 8: I made the first move many moons ago. 447 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 6: I kiss you the second time. 448 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 8: All right, who made the first Oh yeah. 449 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: That really made it sound like a rebound, but they 450 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: didn't actually start up a relationship for quite some time. 451 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 1: Following the kids. They were friends for about a year 452 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: before anything happened. Sophie also dated Sophie vander Hoove in between. 453 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: Well it's with the names, like, don't date anyone with 454 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: your name or the name of your eggs now. Further 455 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: shade was thrown at Maddie Garreic when Sophie answered if 456 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: she'd found the one, Here's what she said. 457 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 7: Is she the one? 458 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: You both truly look happy? 459 00:21:59,400 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 2: You know what? 460 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 8: I fucking hope. 461 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 7: So, because I'm a little bit sick and tired. 462 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 2: Of this, I think I think, no, No, I know 463 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 2: she's the one. I think we've definitely found our person 464 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 2: in each other. 465 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 7: Everyone's screenworld called that place. 466 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 8: Thanks no cheat to cheatah, Pumpkin Eita here cheater Cheatah. 467 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 7: No, you're not. 468 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: God, that is so awkward. I actually really feel for 469 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,199 Speaker 1: Maddie press Packers because you get a sense to what 470 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: it must be like behind the scenes between them, that 471 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: she must always be having to reassure Sophie that she's 472 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: not doing anything wrong, but she's not acting like her ex. 473 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: I think she must be working in overtime to prove 474 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: that she's nothing like Maddie Garrick. And the thing is, 475 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: you would have to be very trusting if your girlfriend 476 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: played afl W because they're often on the road traveling, 477 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: they're surrounded by women their own age of the same 478 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: interests as them, and maybe that's where some of Sophie's 479 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: insecurities are coming in, particularly if she was cheated on 480 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: when Maddie was away. Well my basketball, yeah, Well, Maddie 481 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: Press Packers. She plays for Essendon, doesn't she and Sophie 482 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: bat who will also played for Essendon, So when you're 483 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: ex as a teammates, it's very awkward. Questions then turned 484 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: to Sophie's pregnancy and whether the couple were having this 485 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: baby together or if Maddie was part of the decision 486 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 1: making process, and Maddie was quite honest and said that 487 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: because they started out their relationship as just friends, she 488 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: always knew that Sophie planned to have another baby, and 489 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: she said that when she finally fell in love with Sophie, 490 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: Sophie really tried to push her away because the baby 491 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: was her number one priority, understandably, but Mattie said it 492 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 1: didn't affect things on her end, and that because she 493 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: loves Sophie's kids, Bobby and Floss, she knows that she's 494 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 1: going to love this third baby just as much. It 495 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,719 Speaker 1: seems like a very mature perspective. It is mature, and 496 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to take away at all from what 497 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 1: she's saying, but her newborn is very different to a 498 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: six and ten year old or however old her kids are. 499 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: And I think with Mattie only being twenty four, she 500 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: might be going into this a little bit blind. I 501 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: think Sophie could read the naivety her tone, and she 502 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: could probably see what people were thinking, so she kept saying, 503 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 1: how do you actually feel about the newborn stage? Though, Maddie. 504 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 1: Maddie said this, and what. 505 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 7: About the newborn stage, sweetheart? Well, I suppose you just 506 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 7: don't know what to expect. So she's going to be great. 507 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 2: Starting from the start. 508 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: Learn how to change it, nappy. 509 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 7: That's why she doesn't live here, so she can go 510 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 7: home whenever she wants. Yeah, I've got to go home 511 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 7: and clean up. 512 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 2: Sorry. 513 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's another interesting element because Maddie and Sophie don't 514 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: currently live together and they're not planning on moving in 515 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: together when this baby is born. I think that's a 516 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: very clever idea, because this is such a fresh relationship 517 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 1: and it's a lot to expect of a new partner, 518 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: especially someone who's so young. If this wasn't their decision, 519 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: I think that's going to cause a lot of arguments though, 520 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: because even though they're saying that they're not bringing up 521 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: this baby together, you'd be pretty resentful if you haven't 522 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: slept at all and you're dealing with a crying baby 523 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: and then you're part And I was like, all right, well, 524 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna pop home and get a good night 525 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: in sleep. Like, I can see that this is going 526 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: to be quite difficult for them to navigate, but then again, 527 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,719 Speaker 1: it will be important for Maddie to get a good 528 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: night's sleep if she's an athlete and she needs to 529 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: be in tip top shape for her game. Again, you 530 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: can see how this works on paper, but not in 531 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,479 Speaker 1: the real world. Yeah, but the afl W season will 532 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 1: probably be over by the time this baby's too. True. 533 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: What is also interesting is they're planning on taking a 534 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: family vacation to London when the baby is born. Will 535 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: surprised me. What is people traveling with a newborn. I mean, 536 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: I know everyone's experiences are different, but my son was 537 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,439 Speaker 1: a very good sleeper. I've been very lucky with the 538 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: way he slept and has been going. But I still 539 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: couldn't think of anything worse than taking him on a 540 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: long haul flight. Yeah. Well, let's listen to what Sophie 541 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: and Maddie said about this trip. 542 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 6: Just having fun, just having fun with us and two 543 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 6: kids and a newborn. Yeah, she doesn't know what she's 544 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 6: in for, guys, she has no idea. 545 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if I'm more scared for the 546 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 2: plane ride or. 547 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: But no looking forward to it. I'll be very interested 548 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: to follow on and see how this goes. Hopefully it 549 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: runs a bit smoother than we think it's going to run. Yeah. Well, 550 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: there was a question asking whether Maddie will be called 551 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 1: mum as well, and Sophie confirmed that Maddie will just 552 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 1: be called Mad's bind the baby. She did joke that 553 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 1: she'd be called Papa instead of mum. You can see 554 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 1: that Sophie is very keen to settle down, and there 555 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 1: was a question that she shared that said, I cannot 556 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 1: wait for Maddie to propose his what Maddie's reaction was 557 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: one day, what are you laughing at? 558 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 2: One day any ring suggestions? 559 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: Nah ah no, yeah, no yet Sophie Cash was really 560 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,880 Speaker 1: opening herself up to commentary, isn't she. And the thing 561 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: that just came across in this whole Q and A 562 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 1: was just how young Maddie is like she again, can't 563 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: fault the girl sounds like an absolute sweetheart, but maybe 564 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: a bit naive. Now Sophie, who is only a couple 565 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: of weeks from giving birth, has opened up more about 566 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: the relaunch of her Young Mummy blog, so she did 567 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: reveal in Estella interview that she was getting back onto it. 568 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 1: This is a decade later, which makes it feel really 569 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: old because when I was working at the Thunderbirds, the 570 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,880 Speaker 1: netball team, I remember that we reached out to her 571 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: and gave her free tickets to come along to a 572 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 1: game because she loves netball. She was obviously living in 573 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: South Australia at the time too, so a lot's changed 574 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 1: for her. When she said it was launching again, I 575 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: didn't think that it would launch in a blog format 576 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: because who reads blogs. Now this is going to be 577 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: featured on her Casha Pajama website, so that's where you 578 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: can find the blog. But I originally thought, because she 579 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 1: launched a new YouTube channel when she announced her pregnancy, 580 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: that the Young Mummy might take the new format of 581 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 1: daily vlogs. Well, not daily blogs, weekly vlogs. Yeah, well, 582 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: TikTok vlogging. I'm surprised that a media company like Mamma 583 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: Mia hasn't picked up as a regular feature on their website. 584 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: Maybe so if he thinks financially, she's better off putting 585 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: on her own website where she can get advertisers and 586 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: get traction on there and then also in turn get 587 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 1: people to buy her pajamas. See, I reckon she'd be 588 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: better off actually repackaging it as a podcast. I would 589 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: definitely be keen to listen to it. I think that 590 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: she's going to be pretty open and honest on there, 591 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,439 Speaker 1: and it will be interesting for her to compare things 592 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 1: now to how they were a decade ago. She already 593 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 1: said that there's so many new apps and products on 594 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: the market, and she did joke that she should call 595 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: it the middle Aged Mummy, which isn't true. She's only 596 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,159 Speaker 1: thirty four. Hey hey, hey, we're actually a year or 597 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: two older than her, so none of that. Maybe it 598 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: could be called the geriatric mum because trick mom. After 599 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: thirty five, I have not had anyone refer to me 600 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: medically as a geriatric mummy. I think they've got rid 601 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: of that term. Yeah. I wasn't referred to that, but 602 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: I was thirty four. No, I was thirty five when 603 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: I gave birth. Yeah, I was waiting for it. But 604 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: I think that now a lot of women are having 605 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: children later that they're like, this doesn't really seem to 606 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: apply well. With pregnancy rage being a real thing, I 607 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: don't think anyone would have the balls to go a 608 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: woman geriatric. Let's get into our Friday debrief and for 609 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: the OG listeners who can actually tell our voices apart, 610 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: you will have noticed that Amy's has dropped out. She 611 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: had to head off to a meeting. If you can 612 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: read that code, read between the lines. So I'm going 613 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: to jump in with a high of the week for me. So, 614 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: it was my second wedding anniversary on Tuesday, which is wild. 615 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 1: How was that two years ago? It actually freaks me out. 616 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: I can't believe it. It was such a good day and 617 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: I'm at a point where I'm like, oh, I feel 618 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: like I really want to watch the video back in 619 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: full because the year after you kind of get it 620 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: six months after the wedding anyway, and you're like, oh, 621 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,719 Speaker 1: I feel like I've already seen this, but it's sort 622 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: of like fresh again. So we were going to watch 623 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: on our wedding anniversary, but Reese fell asleep watching suits. 624 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: Very romantic evening, but it was a lovely day, I mean, 625 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: now that we have Jack. We actually didn't think ahead 626 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: of time to book in a babysitter, so we just 627 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: had takeaway on the couch watching suits. But it was 628 00:29:58,680 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 1: absolutely perfect. 629 00:29:59,640 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 2: See. 630 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: I got a lot of flak for celebrating the anniversary 631 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: of my first date with my husband, which was eight 632 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 1: years since our first date. You paid the shit out 633 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: of me on the podcast for it. Our night didn't 634 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: end romantically at all because we went to a little 635 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: tie place around the corner from us and a nice place. 636 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 1: Look at that all the time. It's ogent laugh. But 637 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: poor Brownon ended up getting food poisoning. So he woke 638 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,239 Speaker 1: up at like five o'clock in the morning and he's like, 639 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: I think I'm going to be sick, and I was like, 640 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: in my pregnancy rage, Oh shut up, you don't really 641 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: mean it. Anyway, fucking five seconds later. Anyway, back to 642 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 1: my anniversary. As I said, it was pretty low key, 643 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,719 Speaker 1: but I had a really nice day because Reese managed 644 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: to surprise me twice. So the night before he came 645 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: home from work with this big, beautiful bunch of flowers 646 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: and he said, I'm so sorry your present hasn't arrived 647 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: in time. And for the second wedding anniversary, the theme 648 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: is caution. So I was really racking my brains, like 649 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: I don't know what to get because that's a start, 650 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: see yeah, but you kind of want to get some 651 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: personalized A lot of the personalized stuff was a bit 652 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: now anyway, so I was like, oh gosh, this is 653 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: you know, you could have just got me flowers. This 654 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: is They're beautiful. The next day, at around twelve o'clock, 655 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: I hear this knock on the door and I was like, 656 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: oh my god. So I've got the two dogs at 657 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: the door, I've got Jack. And I opened the door 658 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: and there's this man standing there. It almost looked like 659 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 1: that show First Day, with a big bunch of twelve 660 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: red roses and a little bag and inside the bag 661 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: was a Teddy Bear And I said, Kate Torbert and 662 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,719 Speaker 1: I'm like what because normally Reese would say Kate Turner 663 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: and I was like, who is this from? I was like, 664 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: am I being trolled? And then I was like, well, 665 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: it looks like a Valentine's Day present and didn't you think, oh, 666 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: this is a bit early? Well I noticed it was 667 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: sept from the same floorist that Reesa got the other 668 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: flowers from, and I was like, oh my god. He 669 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: must have put in an order for Valentine's Day and 670 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: it's arrived like today, like there must have been some miscommunication. 671 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 1: I was like, well, this is so embarrassed' a good 672 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: way to get him cheaper, don't sit on Valentine's Day. Yeah, 673 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: So I rang him and I'm like, what's going on. 674 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: He's like, no, no, there they are from me. I 675 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 1: just wanted to send you a second bunch to surprise you. 676 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: And I was like, why the different name. I think 677 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: you just forgot to put Turner. And then a couple 678 00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: of hours later there was another knock on the door 679 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: and I opened the door and there was a third 680 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: bunch of flowers from him, and I'm like, what is 681 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: going on? This is not clever because you're having to 682 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: pay for two lots of delivery and they were from 683 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: a different company. Anyway, why did he send three bunch 684 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 1: of flowers? I'm still confused. So he said the first 685 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: was to celebrate our first year of marriage, the second 686 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: was to celebrate the second year, and the third was 687 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: for the year ahead. What Yeah, and it was more 688 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: sense to me for two years of marriage. Well, I'm 689 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: not complaining that. Was this a mistake? No, it wasn't. 690 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: Ask him tonight, I will. I loved it though. I 691 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,959 Speaker 1: love getting flowers. What have you got for us? I 692 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 1: really feel like the karma gods are on to me 693 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: because we did a segment last year about m Davies 694 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: trying to sell a white couch that had stains all 695 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: over it. It's funny you say that, because when I 696 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: was doing some research into m dav's Hen's party for 697 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: this episode today, I came across an article Perth Now 698 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: wrote about our coverage of said couch. Yeah, and we 699 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: were having a bit of a laugh because this couch 700 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: was beyond filthy. It looked absolutely terrible. I mean, at 701 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: least she was honest in the Facebook advert about it. Anyway, 702 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: Brandon and I we want to get a bigger couch 703 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: we now that we're having a family, but we need 704 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 1: a corner couch. We currently have a three seater couch 705 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 1: and we are absolutely squished on it. As the subs 706 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 1: would know, you are trying to make your house into 707 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: a hotel. Not really, I just want to make it 708 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: a nice place to be. Maybe the use of the 709 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: word hotel was wrong, but anyway, we have changed the 710 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: configuration of our room. We ended up blocking off a 711 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 1: wall like putting jip rock up. We had these two 712 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 1: ugly arches, so we now have our TV where the 713 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: archers used to be, and the room feels a lot bigger. 714 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: So we needed a bigger couch. And basically, and every 715 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: time I tried to take a picture of this old couch, 716 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 1: it looked absolutely filthy. I don't know if it's because 717 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: we moved where it was sitting and there was different lines. Well, 718 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: it just looked filthy the more we looked at it. 719 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: But I couldn't take a new photo of it. So 720 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,719 Speaker 1: I found a photo that I took of when we 721 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: bought it. Oh, that's a little bit different. And I 722 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: also found photos of what it looked like from where 723 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: we bought it. So we got it from James lane. Anyway, 724 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 1: we had quite a few people inquire about it, and 725 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 1: someone wanted to come and look at it, and we thought, fuck, like, 726 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 1: we can't leave it how it is. So we have 727 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: spent hours and hours and hours cleaning this couch. We 728 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 1: had one of those portable upholstery cleaners. I've got one 729 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,319 Speaker 1: of those. It took so long, and because I was 730 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,280 Speaker 1: so nervous, because I didn't want to take the covers 731 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: off and wash them, because I've read so many websites 732 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: saying that it shrinks them or they it could ball 733 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,360 Speaker 1: up like blazers. But anyway, we decided that this upholstery 734 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,320 Speaker 1: cleaner was doing nothing. It looked so streaking and dirty. 735 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: So at twelve o'clock the other night, we were laughing 736 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,879 Speaker 1: so much. We're like, fuck, we've got to do something. 737 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: It's going to drive overnight. So we grabbed all of 738 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: the pillowcases off, We filled up the bath with water, 739 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 1: we chucked in laundry detergent, and we were literally scrubbing them. 740 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 1: We said out next one they but probably thinks we're 741 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 1: a murderer cleaning this couch off. And you said that. 742 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,720 Speaker 1: I was like texting you and you suddenly went mia 743 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: and I'm like, where are you Why are you ignoring me? 744 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 1: And You're like, we're cleaning the couch, and I was like, 745 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: how long does it take? Well, the next day, Brandon 746 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: still was not happy with some of these cushions that 747 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: an hour and a half before the people were set 748 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,399 Speaker 1: to come and look at it. He's like, let's put 749 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 1: these two back in the bath. So you put him 750 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: in the bath again. So Brandon was suggesting getting a 751 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 1: leaf blower out to try and dry these cushis. You know, 752 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: we have a dryer at our house, we have a 753 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: dryer at ours, but I was wirried it was going 754 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: to shrink the cushions. Anyway, we had to put it 755 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: in the dryer. We pulled it all together. It looks 756 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 1: fucking brand new. People that the water aren't listening to this. 757 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: The girl rocked up and she was like, oh my god, 758 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 1: I love it, and we were like perfect. So she's 759 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: coming on Friday to come and get this. This goes 760 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 1: out Friday. Hopefully the exchange will have taken place by 761 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: the well, you know, you have a lot of people 762 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,239 Speaker 1: listening that might want the couch. It's being professionally clean. 763 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: Well that's what I thought. I'd probably be more happy 764 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: to buy a secondhand couch if I knew that it 765 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 1: had been cleaned. It's been bleached into an intr anyway, 766 00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,760 Speaker 1: moral of the story is be very careful with your couch. 767 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: Maybe don't let your dog on it. I thought you 768 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 1: gonna say with your marketplace purchase, be wary. Well, we're 769 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 1: going to leave things there.
