WEBVTT - The Luxury 'Yummy Mummy' Car 

0:00:03.200 --> 0:00:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Hello and welcome to Outspoken. It's your dose of the

0:00:06.360 --> 0:00:09.960
<v Speaker 1>hottest influencer and pop culture news twice a week. I'm

0:00:10.000 --> 0:00:13.680
<v Speaker 1>Sophie Torbah and coming up on today's show, Sarah's Day's

0:00:13.760 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Quest to find the best seven seater Luxury mum car.

0:00:17.440 --> 0:00:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Karina Irby's new PJ line is labeled tacky and Expensive

0:00:21.840 --> 0:00:26.000
<v Speaker 1>and Tammy Hembro's troublesome housemate. But first, Mollie May has

0:00:26.040 --> 0:00:29.160
<v Speaker 1>proven yet again amy why she is just so relatable.

0:00:29.440 --> 0:00:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah so. Over the weekend, Mollie shared a YouTube where

0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:35.479
<v Speaker 1>she took her followers along to the BAFT Awards and

0:00:35.560 --> 0:00:37.520
<v Speaker 1>to set the scene, there were some pretty big names

0:00:37.520 --> 0:00:41.520
<v Speaker 1>in attendance, including Kylie Jenner and Timothy Shallow. May Now

0:00:41.560 --> 0:00:44.720
<v Speaker 1>on social media it looked like a very glamorous event,

0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:47.720
<v Speaker 1>but Molly later revealed in the comfort of her hotel

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:50.600
<v Speaker 1>room while sipping a peppermint tea, that she had to

0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:54.160
<v Speaker 1>make an early exit halfway through her meal due to

0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:57.760
<v Speaker 1>trapped wins. So to translate that for everyone, Mollie needed

0:00:57.800 --> 0:01:00.200
<v Speaker 1>to fart. Let's have a listen to what she said.

0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Right, seem we are back from the bafters and I'm

0:01:05.760 --> 0:01:09.880
<v Speaker 2>just pouring peppermint tea. Because I have to be honest,

0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:14.279
<v Speaker 2>I got the world's worst.

0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:18.559
<v Speaker 3>This is TMI. I got the world's worst trapped wind

0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:22.759
<v Speaker 3>from sitting in the same position for so many hours

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:26.319
<v Speaker 3>the ceremony, I've got to be honest with you. It

0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:29.679
<v Speaker 3>put the on in long. It was such a lovely evening, though,

0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:34.160
<v Speaker 3>but also because I got such a saw stomach from

0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:36.640
<v Speaker 3>sitting in the same position, we had to leave like

0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:38.480
<v Speaker 3>halfway through the meal because I was in so much pain.

0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:40.640
<v Speaker 3>I was like, I literally cannot sit here. Like does

0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:43.360
<v Speaker 3>anybody else get that when they sit crunched up for

0:01:43.440 --> 0:01:45.120
<v Speaker 3>too long? Or like if you're driving in like the

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:47.039
<v Speaker 3>same position for too long, like I get really bad

0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:49.040
<v Speaker 3>trapped wind. I don't even I'm not really even like

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:50.760
<v Speaker 3>a drumpy gal, so I don't even know why the

0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:52.480
<v Speaker 3>wind's getting trapped because its not like the wind would

0:01:52.560 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 3>usually exit.

0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:57.240
<v Speaker 1>I felt so seen when I watched this video, because

0:01:57.640 --> 0:01:59.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, when you think this is something that just

0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:01.880
<v Speaker 1>happens to you, because no one really talks about it.

0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:04.080
<v Speaker 1>I've been to so many events where I'm like I

0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:07.120
<v Speaker 1>need to go and just be by myself, let it out.

0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:10.880
<v Speaker 1>I think people underestimate how much trapped gas can actually hurt.

0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:13.959
<v Speaker 1>There's been people who have been rushed to emergency rooms

0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:17.280
<v Speaker 1>because they've assumed something more debilitating than that. Well, she

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:20.240
<v Speaker 1>wasn't exaggerating as well, because the BAFTA Awards went for

0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:23.880
<v Speaker 1>fourteen hours. What Yeah, and so she was having to

0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:27.679
<v Speaker 1>sit probably in quite an uncomfortable dress. Yeah, she said

0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:30.639
<v Speaker 1>she was sitting in this really crouched over uncomfortable position,

0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 1>and in the vlog she had to get up at

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.079
<v Speaker 1>the crack of dawn to drive. I think it was

0:02:34.120 --> 0:02:36.440
<v Speaker 1>like three hours to get a hair and makeup done.

0:02:36.480 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>I know when I've had big events on like weddings,

0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:41.280
<v Speaker 1>and you're getting ready all day and you tend not

0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:44.200
<v Speaker 1>to eat very much and then your stomach just fills

0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:46.639
<v Speaker 1>with air, And I think that's the big issue. Or

0:02:46.680 --> 0:02:49.000
<v Speaker 1>you think I'll be healthy and have something like fruitulie.

0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:50.600
<v Speaker 1>That's not going to have that much of an effect

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:53.120
<v Speaker 1>it does. Anything with fiber, well, I don't think it

0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:55.680
<v Speaker 1>also helped that the entree at the Bafters consisted of

0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:58.520
<v Speaker 1>caviat probably not the best food if you're feeling gassy.

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:01.040
<v Speaker 1>I had a laugh because I noticed in the background

0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:03.120
<v Speaker 1>when Molly was sipping on her peppermint tea that there

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.280
<v Speaker 1>was a lot of McDonald's takeaway, and I was like,

0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:07.440
<v Speaker 1>that's quite a lot of food. And then I realized

0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:09.680
<v Speaker 1>that she was actually sharing the room with two other girls.

0:03:09.720 --> 0:03:11.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, the poor thing. She just wants to go

0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:14.000
<v Speaker 1>and fart in peace, and she's got two other people there.

0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:16.119
<v Speaker 1>I love that this is the second episode that we're

0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 1>talking about farting. We got some feedback from one of

0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:20.840
<v Speaker 1>our OG listeners that he loved our discussion on the

0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:23.080
<v Speaker 1>maths fart and that he's never heard women say the

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:25.400
<v Speaker 1>word fart so many times, which I mean I had

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:27.080
<v Speaker 1>to listen back. I was like, I suppose we did

0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:29.440
<v Speaker 1>say it quite a bit. But hopefully Rodney gets a

0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:32.440
<v Speaker 1>laugh out of this one. What is the ultimate mom car?

0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:34.760
<v Speaker 4>Well, hopefully we're about to find out, because I'm in

0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:37.480
<v Speaker 4>the market for a new mom car with seven seats

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:41.520
<v Speaker 4>bougie fossmum vibes. So let's get started with car number one.

0:03:41.640 --> 0:03:44.480
<v Speaker 1>Sarah's Day has assured her followers she's not out of

0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:49.400
<v Speaker 1>touch after launching a social media series reviewing luxury family cars.

0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:53.160
<v Speaker 1>The OG Wellness Warrior claims she's only sharing this series

0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:55.800
<v Speaker 1>because her followers asked for it and not for her

0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 1>own personal gain, Kay, can you tell us more well,

0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Sarah's day is in the market for a new luxury

0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:05.000
<v Speaker 1>seven seedar family car. And I emphasized the word luxury

0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:07.320
<v Speaker 1>because as you're about to hear it later, she used

0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:10.840
<v Speaker 1>that word a lot when discussing her desired car. Sarah

0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:12.320
<v Speaker 1>is now a mum of three, so she needs a

0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:14.920
<v Speaker 1>bigger car. And at the moment she's driving her dream car,

0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.040
<v Speaker 1>which is a five seedar Range Rover Sport. Before that,

0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:21.000
<v Speaker 1>she had a sponsorship deal with Mazda. Now, the fact

0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 1>Sarah advertised that she's car shopping to a one point

0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:27.279
<v Speaker 1>two million Instagram followers has led many to speculate that

0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:30.320
<v Speaker 1>she is either shopping for a car sponsorship deal or

0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:32.640
<v Speaker 1>already has one on the road. Some one case, she's

0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:36.280
<v Speaker 1>just showing us commoners how the rich do things look.

0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:38.839
<v Speaker 1>I don't think with a three month old baby, she's

0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:41.719
<v Speaker 1>doing anything for free. I'm very skeptical that this isn't

0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:44.800
<v Speaker 1>some sort of paid partnership or sponsorship deal. She isn't

0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:47.640
<v Speaker 1>really known for disclosing ads very well well. A day

0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:50.479
<v Speaker 1>before releasing the first real of the series, Sarah took

0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:53.240
<v Speaker 1>to her Instagram story to provide a disclaimer that she

0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:56.840
<v Speaker 1>wasn't out of touch. Alongside a selfie of her duck

0:04:56.920 --> 0:04:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Pouding in the car she was trialing, she wrote, Remember,

0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm in the market to replace my current luxury car.

0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:05.640
<v Speaker 1>I just need more seats, so the bar is already high,

0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:08.320
<v Speaker 1>and I have high expectations when it comes to certain

0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:10.920
<v Speaker 1>features of a car. Keep in mind if I do

0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:13.400
<v Speaker 1>decide to post the little review I filmed for the

0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 1>first car I've tried. It's categorized as a luxury seven seater,

0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:20.039
<v Speaker 1>so I have reviewed it as such. I comment mostly

0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:22.680
<v Speaker 1>on cosmetic elements of the car, but honestly, that's what

0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:25.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm interested in when reading and watching reviews of the

0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:28.040
<v Speaker 1>luxury seven seaters I'm looking at buying. Don't come at

0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:30.160
<v Speaker 1>me for being out of touch. I can assure you

0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:32.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm not, and I acknowledge it's an absolute privilege and

0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:36.000
<v Speaker 1>blessing to even be shopping this category. However, when a

0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:39.640
<v Speaker 1>car is classified in the luxury car category, naturally they're

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:42.200
<v Speaker 1>held at a higher standard and the buyer will expect

0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:46.679
<v Speaker 1>certain features. I think we can all understand and appreciate this. Okay,

0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:48.920
<v Speaker 1>that is all and She finished with the thumbs up.

0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:51.720
<v Speaker 1>This ogi this is what convinces me that she has

0:05:51.760 --> 0:05:54.400
<v Speaker 1>some sort of paid partnership deal in the wings, because

0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.359
<v Speaker 1>why would she want to ostracize her audience like this.

0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.240
<v Speaker 1>She's already copying flak for being out of touch and

0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:03.520
<v Speaker 1>promoting this luxury car that most of the moms who

0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:06.080
<v Speaker 1>follow her will majority of the moms who follow her

0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 1>would not be able to afford. So what is the

0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:10.480
<v Speaker 1>point of doing this? When you see a disclaimer like this,

0:06:10.760 --> 0:06:14.320
<v Speaker 1>you know that the real is going to be absolutely obnoxious.

0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:14.560
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 1>Sarah followed up in another slide, saying, don't worry, I'm

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:21.039
<v Speaker 1>not out here trialing in Aston Martin, Lambeau or Ferrari.

0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Just everyday cars have been classified by their brands to

0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:27.919
<v Speaker 1>be in the luxury category. Nothing crazy, I promise a

0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:30.640
<v Speaker 1>lot of the way you keep saying luxury, get luxury.

0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.760
<v Speaker 1>She also added a pole with the voting options yes,

0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:36.960
<v Speaker 1>post your review, I'm interested in No, I don't care now.

0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:40.679
<v Speaker 1>The yes was a resounding winner with over ninety percent

0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:43.520
<v Speaker 1>of the votes. It's a bit weird for Sarah to

0:06:43.640 --> 0:06:47.120
<v Speaker 1>reference an Aston Martin as being sort of an out

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:49.599
<v Speaker 1>of touch car because she's already purchased one of those

0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:52.120
<v Speaker 1>for her dad a couple of years ago, which obviously

0:06:52.160 --> 0:06:54.640
<v Speaker 1>is incredibly generous because she gave it as a gift

0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:57.320
<v Speaker 1>to her dad, But you do buy luxury cars. To

0:06:57.360 --> 0:06:59.440
<v Speaker 1>be fair to her, though, she didn't make a huge

0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:01.680
<v Speaker 1>video about doing her dat a car, which a lot

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.400
<v Speaker 1>of influencers would have done for content. It was mentioned

0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:06.240
<v Speaker 1>in a vlog though it was, but it wasn't like

0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:09.239
<v Speaker 1>click baity like I bought my dad at Aston Martin,

0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:11.640
<v Speaker 1>which I really don't like when people put that sort

0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:13.960
<v Speaker 1>of stuff on TikTok or YouTube. It's a bit vulgar.

0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:16.480
<v Speaker 1>It kind of seems a bit patronizing to people's parents. Well,

0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:18.120
<v Speaker 1>it's a hard one as well, because we've had this

0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:21.400
<v Speaker 1>discussion before where there are influencers or podcasters who are

0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:23.440
<v Speaker 1>clearly making a lot of money, but they feel they're

0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:26.760
<v Speaker 1>unable to disclose this to their audience. Whereas you've got Sarah.

0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:29.360
<v Speaker 1>She is at least being honest about how much she's

0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:31.640
<v Speaker 1>earning and what she's buying. That's the thing. I don't

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:34.680
<v Speaker 1>think anyone is upset that she's successful. I think it's

0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:37.840
<v Speaker 1>more the tone. Yeah, it's very much. The tone is

0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:41.920
<v Speaker 1>quite condescending. Now, while the Instagram poll was a resounding yes,

0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Sarah revealed her dms told a different story. She described

0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 1>them as being a mix of beautiful and fiery. Here's

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:51.000
<v Speaker 1>more of what she said. I don't understand.

0:07:51.320 --> 0:07:54.840
<v Speaker 6>I think people forget I'm just a content creator, right

0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.880
<v Speaker 6>like I think Instagram is just a place to be entertained.

0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:02.680
<v Speaker 6>And there is no ulterior motive to me documenting this,

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:05.440
<v Speaker 6>like I wasn't even going to document it me finding

0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:06.240
<v Speaker 6>a new car to buy.

0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:09.160
<v Speaker 1>As for the decision to share the content, Sarah said

0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:12.480
<v Speaker 1>she was motivated by organic interests from her followers. She

0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:15.400
<v Speaker 1>also said that she was surprised how interested they were

0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:18.119
<v Speaker 1>when she briefly mentioned she needed to sell her car,

0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:20.800
<v Speaker 1>and she did preface that if it ever seemed like

0:08:20.840 --> 0:08:23.360
<v Speaker 1>she was sharing content outside of her normal realm, that

0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:25.280
<v Speaker 1>it was for one of these two reasons.

0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 6>It's either I'm really passionate about it and I want

0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:29.680
<v Speaker 6>to mix it up, because guys, I've been doing this

0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:32.360
<v Speaker 6>for eleven years, Like, I just film things that make

0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:33.520
<v Speaker 6>me happy. I'm a creative.

0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:35.640
<v Speaker 1>At the end of the day, it doesn't surprise me

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:38.000
<v Speaker 1>she's getting that negativity in a DM. So because we

0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:40.040
<v Speaker 1>are at a cost of living crisis. A lot of

0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:43.640
<v Speaker 1>influencers seem to keep overlooking that fact. Now. Sarah was

0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:46.680
<v Speaker 1>also adamant that the series was merely a fun creative

0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:49.320
<v Speaker 1>project and not a way to financially gain This is

0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:49.920
<v Speaker 1>what she said.

0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:53.319
<v Speaker 6>And also, you don't get paid for reels like people

0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:54.360
<v Speaker 6>were like, you're monetizing this.

0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:54.760
<v Speaker 5>I'm not.

0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.480
<v Speaker 6>You don't get paid for Instagram reels like this is

0:08:57.640 --> 0:08:59.679
<v Speaker 6>just for fun. The only thing I get paid for

0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:03.000
<v Speaker 6>for view U is YouTube videos. You get like sense

0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:06.680
<v Speaker 6>perview literal sense, But like Instagram and TikTok in Australia,

0:09:06.720 --> 0:09:10.520
<v Speaker 6>you don't get paid like this is literally just fun

0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 6>and you guys ask for it. So yeah, if I

0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:15.280
<v Speaker 6>ever film something that's like out of my norm, which

0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:17.760
<v Speaker 6>like never books yourself in, you can film whatever you

0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:20.320
<v Speaker 6>want to do, it's either like people have asked or

0:09:20.440 --> 0:09:21.920
<v Speaker 6>I'm just like this is a fun idea.

0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:24.680
<v Speaker 1>I want to debunk what Sarah said there because I

0:09:24.720 --> 0:09:27.560
<v Speaker 1>think it's a little bit misleading. She is correct in

0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:31.080
<v Speaker 1>saying that Instagram and TikTok don't have a creative fund

0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:34.520
<v Speaker 1>or ad sense like other platforms or in other countries. However,

0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:37.440
<v Speaker 1>she still earns money from her reels on TikTok because

0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:40.760
<v Speaker 1>she monetizes a lot of her reels and also Instagram

0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:44.720
<v Speaker 1>stories by featuring sponsored products. I would be confident in

0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:47.800
<v Speaker 1>saying that Instagram would be the social media platform where

0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:49.760
<v Speaker 1>she makes the most money for it. She wouldn't be

0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:52.640
<v Speaker 1>making heaps on her YouTube ad sense. I mean, I

0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:55.400
<v Speaker 1>think she keeps around YouTube because that's where she started,

0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:58.400
<v Speaker 1>and that's where she can tell longer form stories and

0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:00.880
<v Speaker 1>really connect with her audience. But I think the money

0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:04.160
<v Speaker 1>maker here is definitely Instagram, and she's not just creating

0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:06.360
<v Speaker 1>content out of the goodness of her heart to entertain

0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:08.960
<v Speaker 1>the masses. She gets paid a lot for doing it,

0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:12.280
<v Speaker 1>whether that's through paid partnerships or promoting her own products

0:10:12.280 --> 0:10:14.800
<v Speaker 1>like a cookbook that she sells. I found it interesting

0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:18.640
<v Speaker 1>just how many disclaimers and Instagram videos Sarah put out

0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:21.120
<v Speaker 1>before just dropping what was supposed to be an apparent

0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 1>fun video and piece of content, because she went on

0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:27.680
<v Speaker 1>to then accuse her followers of having double standards.

0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:30.120
<v Speaker 6>If I was Kurt or just like a man who

0:10:30.200 --> 0:10:32.679
<v Speaker 6>run his own company, worked really hard, had their own

0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:35.800
<v Speaker 6>business for over ten years, no one would bat An

0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:39.120
<v Speaker 6>Eiel it. If I was just filming random reels of

0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:42.640
<v Speaker 6>me replacing a luxury car, like shopping around and like

0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:46.600
<v Speaker 6>comparing them, no one would say anything. It'd be like, oh,

0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:48.520
<v Speaker 6>that's interesting, I wonder what he's gonna buy it. But

0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:50.480
<v Speaker 6>as soon as you're a female, it's like a completely

0:10:50.480 --> 0:10:51.240
<v Speaker 6>different story.

0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Look, she does have a point, but I do think

0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:57.880
<v Speaker 1>in this instance it's a little bit of a lazy

0:10:57.960 --> 0:11:00.679
<v Speaker 1>way to deflect the negative commentary that she was getting.

0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:03.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't like when people just pull the gender card

0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:05.520
<v Speaker 1>so that they can just do whatever they want, because

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.320
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the day, in this instance, I

0:11:07.320 --> 0:11:09.480
<v Speaker 1>don't think people are being sexist. I think people have

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:12.079
<v Speaker 1>an issue because she's being toned. To Karina Rbie, who

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:14.480
<v Speaker 1>were discussing later in the episode, she had a similar

0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:18.840
<v Speaker 1>sentiment this week. She feels like she cops unnecessary negativity

0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 1>in the press for sharing about her luxury items, and

0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:23.920
<v Speaker 1>said if she was a man and a successful male

0:11:24.000 --> 0:11:26.280
<v Speaker 1>business owner, it wouldn't be the case. I get where

0:11:26.280 --> 0:11:28.200
<v Speaker 1>they're coming from, but I definitely don't think that this

0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:32.440
<v Speaker 1>is what's at play in this particular situation. And Kate,

0:11:32.559 --> 0:11:34.680
<v Speaker 1>you first saw this video and you told sof and

0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:36.600
<v Speaker 1>I about it, and I thought, oh, surely it's not

0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:40.360
<v Speaker 1>that obnoxious. But my jaw was a jar while watching.

0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:43.320
<v Speaker 1>When you're talking about this review, that would obviously go

0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:46.840
<v Speaker 1>into because Sarah uploaded it a couple of hours after

0:11:46.880 --> 0:11:50.680
<v Speaker 1>sharing the disclaimers on her Instagram story. Now, cart number

0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:53.320
<v Speaker 1>one of this review series ended up being a Lexus

0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:56.719
<v Speaker 1>GX five point fifty. I wasn't expecting much from the

0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:59.400
<v Speaker 1>real because Sarah said the filming was really rough because

0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:01.920
<v Speaker 1>she was holding her baby, Harlowe, and she also said

0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:04.240
<v Speaker 1>that she wanted to reshoot it but didn't have time.

0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.360
<v Speaker 1>I was then very surprised when the real ended up

0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:11.160
<v Speaker 1>being professionally shot by Sarah's husband, Kurt, who is a videographer.

0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:12.920
<v Speaker 1>Or was it professionally shore I thought it was on

0:12:12.960 --> 0:12:15.400
<v Speaker 1>the phone, but it was edited in a really nice way. Oh,

0:12:15.400 --> 0:12:17.080
<v Speaker 1>I think it was a pretty good real. It wasn't

0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:19.520
<v Speaker 1>just something where you pop the camera open film. As

0:12:19.559 --> 0:12:21.559
<v Speaker 1>soon as I saw the car shots or it was

0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:24.160
<v Speaker 1>like blue yeah, yea, I was like, that's Kurt. Throughout

0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:27.120
<v Speaker 1>her career, she and Kur have always had top quality content,

0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Like they never put out anything that looks crap. Yeah,

0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:32.240
<v Speaker 1>and Kurt also featured in this video, which is quite

0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:35.160
<v Speaker 1>unusual these days for Sarah's content. I mean, back in

0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:37.600
<v Speaker 1>the day he was always there, but he's very busy

0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:39.719
<v Speaker 1>with his business and everyone is always like, oh, we

0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:42.400
<v Speaker 1>want more Kurt, but he's just never in the videos anymore,

0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:44.360
<v Speaker 1>which again makes me think that there's more to just

0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:47.360
<v Speaker 1>this simple review video. Yeah, it was very clear from

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:50.160
<v Speaker 1>the get go that Kurt had a vested interest in

0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.240
<v Speaker 1>this video. The fact that he was filming it and

0:12:52.280 --> 0:12:54.559
<v Speaker 1>the fact that he was in it was a big giveaway.

0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:58.040
<v Speaker 1>But then he started spooking all the features of the car.

0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:00.400
<v Speaker 1>It almost felt like he was working for the brand,

0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:03.640
<v Speaker 1>and that's probably because he previously has worked for Lexus.

0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:06.440
<v Speaker 1>So in January last year, he shot a campaign for

0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:09.520
<v Speaker 1>the car brand. He shared photos to his Instagram alongside

0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:11.640
<v Speaker 1>the caption a few of my favorite car shots from

0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:15.679
<v Speaker 1>a recent campaign with Lexus Australia, and Lexus Australia's Instagram

0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:19.360
<v Speaker 1>account responded with our love heart under Kurt's post. Also

0:13:19.600 --> 0:13:22.160
<v Speaker 1>back in November twenty twenty three, Kurt was hired by

0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:25.680
<v Speaker 1>Lexus to shoot content for their function at the Melbourne Cup,

0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:28.080
<v Speaker 1>so he clearly is in bed with this brand. So

0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:30.040
<v Speaker 1>it must have been easy for him to organize a

0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:33.080
<v Speaker 1>car for Sarah. Yes, it's very interesting. Now. While Kurt

0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:36.200
<v Speaker 1>tried very hard to sell this car, Sarah, on the

0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:39.560
<v Speaker 1>other hand, seemed more focused at being ultra picky about

0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:42.800
<v Speaker 1>the car's luxury features, and it was clear she would

0:13:42.800 --> 0:13:45.040
<v Speaker 1>have preferred trialing the next model up.

0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:47.840
<v Speaker 4>Here's what she said, I should preface this is the

0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:49.920
<v Speaker 4>luxury version, and if I was to get it, I

0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:52.200
<v Speaker 4>would get the sport Luxury, which is one tier up.

0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:54.600
<v Speaker 4>It would have different rims, but I would probably get

0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:58.240
<v Speaker 4>new rims anyway, because I want big, bad mungle rims.

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.520
<v Speaker 1>The car sunroof also didn't appear to be up to

0:14:02.559 --> 0:14:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Sarah's standards.

0:14:04.000 --> 0:14:06.280
<v Speaker 4>A current car has a full moon roof, like all

0:14:06.320 --> 0:14:07.080
<v Speaker 4>the way back, here is.

0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:08.199
<v Speaker 6>The sunroof open it?

0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:10.600
<v Speaker 4>I wonder if there's a version where it like you

0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:11.520
<v Speaker 4>get a bigger.

0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:13.520
<v Speaker 1>One, always got the sun? Can we close?

0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:13.880
<v Speaker 3>Like?

0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Is there no shade?

0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:17.199
<v Speaker 6>Oh it's manual.

0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:19.760
<v Speaker 1>I sound like.

0:14:19.760 --> 0:14:22.440
<v Speaker 4>Such a princess, But my rang drover, you just boop

0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:24.080
<v Speaker 4>and it goes okay.

0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:26.840
<v Speaker 1>Don't you hate it when you have to manually pull

0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:30.040
<v Speaker 1>the sunroof shade over? I mean, we've all been there before.

0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:33.320
<v Speaker 1>And it's also not big enough. Oh, absolutely slumming it

0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:35.360
<v Speaker 1>with that sunroof for me. Normally I just get my

0:14:35.360 --> 0:14:38.400
<v Speaker 1>butler to open it for me. Well, the automatic boot

0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:40.880
<v Speaker 1>also wasn't high tech enough for Sarah.

0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:43.520
<v Speaker 6>I'm pretty sure in the sports luxury when you do this,

0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:45.880
<v Speaker 6>a handful of baby, a handful of groceries. When you

0:14:45.920 --> 0:14:47.240
<v Speaker 6>do that and it opens Ooh.

0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:49.960
<v Speaker 4>As a mum, little things like that make me buy

0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:51.960
<v Speaker 4>a car, I just want to whoop and I want to.

0:14:54.360 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 3>Manual.

0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Look, I'm not a mum yet, but that is actually

0:14:57.640 --> 0:15:00.320
<v Speaker 1>a really good feature for months. I also, I want

0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:02.200
<v Speaker 1>to say that it would have looked fake if she

0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:05.360
<v Speaker 1>was gushing too much about the car, because she's prefaced

0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:07.360
<v Speaker 1>that this is going to be a review, So I mean,

0:15:07.560 --> 0:15:09.480
<v Speaker 1>she does have to point out some of the features

0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:12.400
<v Speaker 1>that she does or doesn't live, but not in such

0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:14.920
<v Speaker 1>a way that it's like, oh, I'm just so above

0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:16.320
<v Speaker 1>it that I need my car to do all of

0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:18.400
<v Speaker 1>these again, it rubbed me up the wrong way. It

0:15:18.440 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 1>came down to tone. I couldn't help but laugh when

0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Sarah said this after making the back seats lay flat

0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:25.200
<v Speaker 1>down with the press of a button.

0:15:25.680 --> 0:15:27.880
<v Speaker 6>I feel like most of the yummy mummy cars have this.

0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:29.520
<v Speaker 6>At this point, I'm still impressed.

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, my car does not do this. I've got

0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:33.720
<v Speaker 1>a Kia Sportage. I call it my soccer mum car,

0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:36.080
<v Speaker 1>but I actually have to manually put the seats down.

0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:38.280
<v Speaker 1>It does seem like Sarah has a problem with Kias

0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:40.360
<v Speaker 1>because she went on a ramp before posting all of

0:15:40.360 --> 0:15:43.360
<v Speaker 1>these reviews how she never would want a Kia Carnival,

0:15:43.400 --> 0:15:45.800
<v Speaker 1>which is known to be a really popular mum's car.

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Does that mean you're not a yummy mummy cake, because

0:15:47.920 --> 0:15:50.360
<v Speaker 1>I feel like there was also this emphasis on you're

0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:52.520
<v Speaker 1>only a hot mom or a yummy mummy if you're

0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:56.000
<v Speaker 1>driving around in a luxury you're some ugly daggy mum

0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:58.600
<v Speaker 1>if you don't have a fucking Lexus or a range Er.

0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:00.520
<v Speaker 1>I did see this mum right under uneath in the

0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:03.040
<v Speaker 1>comment section, I'm pretty happy with my rav four with

0:16:03.040 --> 0:16:05.880
<v Speaker 1>my four kids, and then Sarah wrote a comment back like, oh, yeah,

0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:08.400
<v Speaker 1>they're great cars. My mum has one. Yeah. I mean,

0:16:08.440 --> 0:16:11.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't particularly like the term yummy mummy either. Reminds

0:16:11.320 --> 0:16:12.800
<v Speaker 1>me of that TV show that was on a couple

0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:14.840
<v Speaker 1>of years ago Channel seven. It was all those rich

0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:18.840
<v Speaker 1>mums that got like Mercedes g. Waggers was apparently one

0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:21.200
<v Speaker 1>of the yummy mummies, the one from Adelaide. She drives

0:16:21.240 --> 0:16:24.360
<v Speaker 1>around with the number plate Yummy. I went to her

0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:26.360
<v Speaker 1>house so when I was working at the thirty six as,

0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:28.440
<v Speaker 1>we got her on board to be an ambassador and

0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:30.840
<v Speaker 1>we had her sit in Courtside and we filmed something

0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:32.920
<v Speaker 1>at her house and I saw remember the room. It

0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:34.600
<v Speaker 1>was like, what's a brand that she really liked was?

0:16:35.360 --> 0:16:37.760
<v Speaker 1>It was a Fasaci room and she was lovely. The

0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:41.320
<v Speaker 1>whole family was so home. That show went off overseas,

0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:44.080
<v Speaker 1>so all the massive ms, so all of the yummy

0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:45.640
<v Speaker 1>mummies ended up. I think she's got like is it

0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:48.040
<v Speaker 1>a million followers or something ridiculous? So I feel like

0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:51.240
<v Speaker 1>the term yummy mummy, I gree it feels very twenty fifteen,

0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:53.600
<v Speaker 1>like as if your only value in being a mum,

0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:57.440
<v Speaker 1>as if you're an attractive fit. And adding the term

0:16:57.440 --> 0:17:01.880
<v Speaker 1>boss babe. Yeah, the whole thing felt so ten years ago,

0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:04.639
<v Speaker 1>like my boss babe car. Also the word bougie. I

0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:06.280
<v Speaker 1>know we said it on the podcast a bit, but

0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:08.920
<v Speaker 1>I actually hate that word. Yeah, I mean, i'd much

0:17:08.920 --> 0:17:12.360
<v Speaker 1>prefer to be called a milk I'm just joking myself now.

0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:14.760
<v Speaker 1>At the end of the video, Sarah raided the car

0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:17.280
<v Speaker 1>eight stars out of ten and asked her followers to

0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:20.399
<v Speaker 1>comment below what car she should try next now at

0:17:20.400 --> 0:17:22.640
<v Speaker 1>the time, Kia Carnivals. Yeah, I would love the Oh

0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:25.040
<v Speaker 1>my god, imagine how brutal it would be.

0:17:25.440 --> 0:17:25.919
<v Speaker 5>I find it.

0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:28.719
<v Speaker 1>Offensive because it's funny. When I was looking for a

0:17:28.720 --> 0:17:31.280
<v Speaker 1>new car earlier this year, Dale was like, you should

0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:33.280
<v Speaker 1>check out the Kia Carnival. He's like, I want you

0:17:33.320 --> 0:17:34.880
<v Speaker 1>to be a soccer mom, and I was like, how

0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:36.480
<v Speaker 1>many kids do you think we're having? Like, I don't

0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:39.120
<v Speaker 1>think we need seven seven that's a bus. Yeah they are,

0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:42.000
<v Speaker 1>and we actually hired one for my wedding when we

0:17:42.040 --> 0:17:44.479
<v Speaker 1>wanted to drive. Anyway, It's a good people, It's actually

0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:47.360
<v Speaker 1>a really good car. So I told Dale on the weekend.

0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:49.080
<v Speaker 1>I was like, Sarah's day has been bagging out Kia

0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:50.720
<v Speaker 1>Carnivals and He's like, what the fuck.

0:17:51.680 --> 0:17:51.920
<v Speaker 5>Well.

0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:54.800
<v Speaker 1>At the time of recording, The Real has notched up

0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:57.600
<v Speaker 1>one point two million views on Instagram and one hundred

0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:01.080
<v Speaker 1>ninety seven thousand on TikTok, clearly creating hype about the

0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:03.600
<v Speaker 1>real before uploading at worked, and it does seem like

0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Sarah purposely pumped it up for engagement. If Lexus are

0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:10.720
<v Speaker 1>a paid partner, then they're probably pretty happy with these views.

0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:12.719
<v Speaker 1>But are they They were going to buy a Lexus

0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:13.800
<v Speaker 1>from seeing that video?

0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:14.040
<v Speaker 5>Well?

0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:17.199
<v Speaker 1>Also, does her audience have the funds to buy a

0:18:17.280 --> 0:18:19.560
<v Speaker 1>seven seed luxury Lexus as well?

0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Well?

0:18:20.160 --> 0:18:22.200
<v Speaker 1>It might have been a branding exercise, but also was

0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:24.480
<v Speaker 1>it good publicity for them? Because I feel like there

0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:26.560
<v Speaker 1>are a lot of people deterred and put off and

0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:28.800
<v Speaker 1>saying she was out of touch because of it. I

0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:31.720
<v Speaker 1>actually can't believe how many people were genuinely commenting on

0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:34.480
<v Speaker 1>what car they wanted her to try next, and the

0:18:34.600 --> 0:18:38.159
<v Speaker 1>majority of people were saying how much they enjoyed the series.

0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:41.080
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if Sarah was moderating the comments though, because

0:18:41.160 --> 0:18:43.280
<v Speaker 1>when I was looking through the TikTok ones, there was

0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:46.240
<v Speaker 1>a comment that says something like, oh, the comments aren't

0:18:46.280 --> 0:18:48.760
<v Speaker 1>it And people had tall poppy syndrome, but there were

0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:51.480
<v Speaker 1>no negative comments on them, so it seems like they

0:18:51.520 --> 0:18:53.719
<v Speaker 1>had been deleted. Well, if you are trying to impress

0:18:53.760 --> 0:18:55.879
<v Speaker 1>a brand like Lexus, you probably do want to filter

0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:58.200
<v Speaker 1>out some of those negative comments where your audience is

0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:00.480
<v Speaker 1>basically saying that they don't relate to this and it's

0:19:00.480 --> 0:19:01.080
<v Speaker 1>out of touch.

0:19:01.240 --> 0:19:01.440
<v Speaker 5>Well.

0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:05.400
<v Speaker 1>A Reddit thread dedicated to Sarah's luxury car series Saga

0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:08.800
<v Speaker 1>was a different story, though, One anonymous poster wrote, this

0:19:08.840 --> 0:19:11.280
<v Speaker 1>fucking pissed me off. Who even posts this shit? Just

0:19:11.280 --> 0:19:13.119
<v Speaker 1>buy a new car and get on with it. I

0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:15.760
<v Speaker 1>hate people who flaunt their shit like this, and she

0:19:15.920 --> 0:19:18.440
<v Speaker 1>knows damn well some of her mum followers stress about

0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:21.119
<v Speaker 1>even putting food on the table. Another said, laughing my

0:19:21.200 --> 0:19:23.400
<v Speaker 1>ass off, the fact she doesn't think she is out

0:19:23.400 --> 0:19:25.960
<v Speaker 1>of touch is actually hilarious. She has multiple homes and

0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:30.160
<v Speaker 1>expensive boat loads of designer clothes and accessories, constantly does

0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:33.840
<v Speaker 1>unnecessary and expensive skin treatments. The list goes on, She's

0:19:33.880 --> 0:19:37.440
<v Speaker 1>actually delusional. Holy smokes, this post is making my blood boil.

0:19:37.520 --> 0:19:40.359
<v Speaker 1>The tone of this is actually so condescending and rude.

0:19:40.400 --> 0:19:42.919
<v Speaker 1>Another years of wrote, Girl, my father and half of

0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:45.480
<v Speaker 1>my colleagues just lost their jobs because of the United

0:19:45.520 --> 0:19:47.919
<v Speaker 1>States government. I don't want to hear shit about you

0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:51.119
<v Speaker 1>buying a new luxury car while you're completely renovating a

0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:54.360
<v Speaker 1>vacation home. Now, I do want to preface that Sarah

0:19:54.520 --> 0:19:57.600
<v Speaker 1>is well within her rights to buy whatever luxury car

0:19:57.720 --> 0:19:59.480
<v Speaker 1>she wants, and if she does want to document it

0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:01.560
<v Speaker 1>to her f that's fine. The thing that I have

0:20:01.640 --> 0:20:04.600
<v Speaker 1>an issue with is firstly the way she did it

0:20:04.640 --> 0:20:07.840
<v Speaker 1>was pretty tone deaf, but secondly it's to do with

0:20:07.920 --> 0:20:10.000
<v Speaker 1>the ad disclosure. So there was a lot of confusion

0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:12.800
<v Speaker 1>in our Facebook community about what the actual issue was

0:20:12.840 --> 0:20:14.760
<v Speaker 1>with this series, and that is it for me, because

0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:19.200
<v Speaker 1>if the series is sponsored, Sarah really needs to disclose it.

0:20:19.240 --> 0:20:22.280
<v Speaker 1>Because in twenty twenty one, the AAANA updated their Code

0:20:22.280 --> 0:20:26.240
<v Speaker 1>of Ethics to ensure influencers met the same advertising standards

0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:29.520
<v Speaker 1>as traditional forms of advertising. So the new code essentially

0:20:29.720 --> 0:20:34.040
<v Speaker 1>requires influencers to clearly disclose a partnership, which includes paid

0:20:34.160 --> 0:20:37.840
<v Speaker 1>and contra and this means influencers like Sarah must make

0:20:37.880 --> 0:20:40.760
<v Speaker 1>it clear, obvious and be upfront with their audience the

0:20:40.840 --> 0:20:43.480
<v Speaker 1>relationship they have with the brand, so they either have

0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:46.640
<v Speaker 1>to use the inbuilt paid partnership tools or use hashtag

0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:49.919
<v Speaker 1>ad or hashtag sponsors. Sarah has stated several times that

0:20:49.960 --> 0:20:52.080
<v Speaker 1>this is not an AD, so we will have to

0:20:52.160 --> 0:20:55.200
<v Speaker 1>take her on her word, but it will be interesting

0:20:55.240 --> 0:20:57.640
<v Speaker 1>to see if this series keeps going and what car

0:20:57.720 --> 0:21:00.720
<v Speaker 1>she ultimately decides on. Maybe in her head, if she

0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:03.280
<v Speaker 1>does have a deal with Lexus, she doesn't think that

0:21:03.320 --> 0:21:05.560
<v Speaker 1>she has to disclose it until she gets that car,

0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:08.600
<v Speaker 1>because what it seems like if she has organized a

0:21:08.640 --> 0:21:11.320
<v Speaker 1>deal through a car company, what would probably happen is

0:21:11.359 --> 0:21:13.440
<v Speaker 1>that car company would loan her a car for a

0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:15.679
<v Speaker 1>number of years, which she could then upgrade. It's not

0:21:15.720 --> 0:21:19.040
<v Speaker 1>like they're giving her a completely free car. I wonder

0:21:19.040 --> 0:21:22.440
<v Speaker 1>if the deal could potentially be with a luxury dealership,

0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:26.720
<v Speaker 1>so instead of the deal being just with Lexus, it's

0:21:26.720 --> 0:21:28.320
<v Speaker 1>with a dealership who is going to give her a

0:21:28.400 --> 0:21:31.000
<v Speaker 1>range of different cars to try, and then maybe she

0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:33.800
<v Speaker 1>thinks that the car she then gets, that's when the

0:21:33.800 --> 0:21:36.080
<v Speaker 1>sponsorship starts. As you said, Amy, well, I'm a bit

0:21:36.119 --> 0:21:39.600
<v Speaker 1>suspicious because we have seen something similar play out with Hiro,

0:21:39.720 --> 0:21:42.399
<v Speaker 1>which is the electrolyte company that she's now part owner of.

0:21:42.560 --> 0:21:45.359
<v Speaker 1>So the seven months before disclosing that she was a

0:21:45.440 --> 0:21:49.359
<v Speaker 1>partner of that company, she was promoting this product all

0:21:49.400 --> 0:21:51.720
<v Speaker 1>over a social media saying that it was this product

0:21:51.720 --> 0:21:54.840
<v Speaker 1>that she organically liked, when it really wasn't. It was

0:21:54.880 --> 0:21:58.600
<v Speaker 1>something that she is financially benefiting off I want to

0:21:58.640 --> 0:22:00.840
<v Speaker 1>talk about the cost of this car. I was really

0:22:00.920 --> 0:22:03.359
<v Speaker 1>curious when I saw her upload the real because I

0:22:03.359 --> 0:22:05.640
<v Speaker 1>would have no idea what something like this would set

0:22:05.680 --> 0:22:08.040
<v Speaker 1>you back. I'm not really into cars. I had a

0:22:08.080 --> 0:22:11.399
<v Speaker 1>look and the LEXUSJX five point fifty is one hundred

0:22:11.400 --> 0:22:14.960
<v Speaker 1>and thirty thousand dollars, while the sports model that Sarah

0:22:15.040 --> 0:22:17.960
<v Speaker 1>wanted is one hundred and forty five thousand. For most

0:22:18.000 --> 0:22:21.320
<v Speaker 1>of Sarah's followers, who are every day Australians who are

0:22:21.359 --> 0:22:24.119
<v Speaker 1>probably struggling at the moment to get groceries on their table,

0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:27.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that this car is in their realm

0:22:27.400 --> 0:22:30.119
<v Speaker 1>of possibility. I don't think that there's mums looking at

0:22:30.119 --> 0:22:32.400
<v Speaker 1>this thinking that this is possible for them at all.

0:22:32.520 --> 0:22:34.240
<v Speaker 1>And I mean, I know we talk a lot about

0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:38.040
<v Speaker 1>how influencers also provide a bit of an escapism for people,

0:22:38.080 --> 0:22:41.159
<v Speaker 1>and it's fun to see influencers trialing things that you

0:22:41.240 --> 0:22:43.879
<v Speaker 1>might not be able to afford. So it did seem

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:46.520
<v Speaker 1>like her audience did get some enjoyment out of it,

0:22:46.600 --> 0:22:47.840
<v Speaker 1>But I think there would be a lot of mums

0:22:47.840 --> 0:22:51.480
<v Speaker 1>feeling ostracized and alienated by it, particularly key drivers. I

0:22:51.520 --> 0:22:54.080
<v Speaker 1>think she sort of touted this as come and find

0:22:54.080 --> 0:22:56.680
<v Speaker 1>a mum car with me. See, I actually don't think

0:22:56.720 --> 0:22:58.159
<v Speaker 1>it was like that at all. From the get go.

0:22:58.280 --> 0:23:01.160
<v Speaker 1>She used the word luxury about twenty times and said

0:23:01.160 --> 0:23:03.639
<v Speaker 1>this is I have high expectations because I've driven this

0:23:03.720 --> 0:23:07.119
<v Speaker 1>luxury car before. There was no ounce of relatability in

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:10.480
<v Speaker 1>that disclaimer at all. I'm so sorry, but I'm about

0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:14.120
<v Speaker 1>to do a full rant. I'm smiling, but I'm so pissed.

0:23:14.920 --> 0:23:19.280
<v Speaker 1>Bikini Mogulkarna Irby is facing backlash after releasing a new

0:23:19.400 --> 0:23:23.040
<v Speaker 1>skin friendly pajama line, which her followers have labeled tacky

0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:27.880
<v Speaker 1>and too expensive. Social media users erupted after discovering they'd

0:23:27.920 --> 0:23:30.800
<v Speaker 1>have to shell out two hundred and eighteen dollars to

0:23:30.840 --> 0:23:33.760
<v Speaker 1>get their hands on a matching PJ set. Now sophy

0:23:34.119 --> 0:23:38.320
<v Speaker 1>this pajama line is an extension of Corina's bikini brand. Yeah,

0:23:38.320 --> 0:23:42.000
<v Speaker 1>that's right, because Karna already owns a successful swimwear brand

0:23:42.040 --> 0:23:45.040
<v Speaker 1>called Moana Bikini, as well as a clothing brand called

0:23:45.080 --> 0:23:48.359
<v Speaker 1>The Smile Club. Karina's name will probably sound familiar to

0:23:48.440 --> 0:23:51.960
<v Speaker 1>listeners because she has over a million followers, and she's

0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:54.760
<v Speaker 1>also been featured on our show a handful of times.

0:23:54.840 --> 0:23:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Who could forget that time that she tried to sue

0:23:57.280 --> 0:24:01.159
<v Speaker 1>influencer updates AU. Yeah, because Corrina brands herself as a

0:24:01.200 --> 0:24:05.320
<v Speaker 1>body positivity influencer and she was accused of photo shopping

0:24:05.359 --> 0:24:08.400
<v Speaker 1>her body by an American super sleuth who called her

0:24:08.440 --> 0:24:11.959
<v Speaker 1>a hypocrite. She also went viral for a post that

0:24:12.080 --> 0:24:14.679
<v Speaker 1>was deemed pretty out of touch because she said she

0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:18.879
<v Speaker 1>accidentally bought an investment property, which really went down like

0:24:18.920 --> 0:24:21.600
<v Speaker 1>a lead balloon in this current clone. Wasn't a beachfront

0:24:21.640 --> 0:24:25.160
<v Speaker 1>as well, I believe so. Now, on Valentine's Day, Karina

0:24:25.160 --> 0:24:28.640
<v Speaker 1>announced that her new pajama line was live, and I mean,

0:24:28.720 --> 0:24:31.560
<v Speaker 1>I just think that we needed another influencer bringing out

0:24:31.560 --> 0:24:34.240
<v Speaker 1>a pajama line. The world was calling out for it. Yeah,

0:24:34.240 --> 0:24:37.040
<v Speaker 1>pajamas are like the new active wear to influences.

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:37.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:24:37.440 --> 0:24:40.399
<v Speaker 1>Well. She made the announcement on her Instagram by sharing

0:24:40.400 --> 0:24:43.600
<v Speaker 1>a photo of herself and one of her colleagues modeling

0:24:43.760 --> 0:24:47.560
<v Speaker 1>the pajamas and wrote, oh my god, someone slapped me. Please,

0:24:47.920 --> 0:24:50.640
<v Speaker 1>this is a dream. My skin friendly PJ line has

0:24:50.720 --> 0:24:53.639
<v Speaker 1>just gone live and you're absolutely loving it with a

0:24:53.640 --> 0:24:57.000
<v Speaker 1>ton of crying faces. Thank you, honestly, wow, thank you,

0:24:57.080 --> 0:24:59.760
<v Speaker 1>because this is a new adventure. The stock is limited

0:24:59.840 --> 0:25:04.040
<v Speaker 1>for first in best dress. Literally, Happy Valentine's Day, everyone,

0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:08.120
<v Speaker 1>I need to know what is a skin friendly pajama like? Well,

0:25:08.160 --> 0:25:11.160
<v Speaker 1>this has been a pretty contentious issue because Karina didn't

0:25:11.160 --> 0:25:15.840
<v Speaker 1>actually explain on her website what made the pj's skin friendly.

0:25:16.119 --> 0:25:18.480
<v Speaker 1>It was only until she got some criticism that she

0:25:18.640 --> 0:25:21.639
<v Speaker 1>went into detail in the comments section, saying that her

0:25:21.680 --> 0:25:25.119
<v Speaker 1>pjs are designed with a unique fabric blend that won't

0:25:25.160 --> 0:25:29.880
<v Speaker 1>absorb your skin's oils or prescription moisturizers. So she said,

0:25:29.920 --> 0:25:32.080
<v Speaker 1>if you're an itchy girlly like me, you know the

0:25:32.119 --> 0:25:35.520
<v Speaker 1>struggle of clothing stripping your skin of any cream, leaving

0:25:35.520 --> 0:25:38.400
<v Speaker 1>you dry and uncomfortable. You would have thought that if

0:25:38.400 --> 0:25:41.119
<v Speaker 1>that is a big selling point of the product, that

0:25:41.160 --> 0:25:43.560
<v Speaker 1>it should have been explained when the product was launched

0:25:43.560 --> 0:25:45.720
<v Speaker 1>and also on the website, because I have never ever

0:25:45.760 --> 0:25:48.880
<v Speaker 1>heard of that before. No, neither have I now. It

0:25:48.960 --> 0:25:52.000
<v Speaker 1>was awkward because this announcement post was acting as though

0:25:52.040 --> 0:25:54.600
<v Speaker 1>everyone was loving the pajamas and everyone couldn't get enough

0:25:54.640 --> 0:25:57.199
<v Speaker 1>of them, But it seemed like she hadn't read the

0:25:57.320 --> 0:26:01.320
<v Speaker 1>room because following the post, hundreds of her followers took

0:26:01.359 --> 0:26:05.160
<v Speaker 1>to the comments section to question the eye watering price tag.

0:26:05.520 --> 0:26:08.400
<v Speaker 1>So one follower wrote, they look tacky. I wouldn't even

0:26:08.400 --> 0:26:11.639
<v Speaker 1>buy these if they were at kmart, whilst another said, girl,

0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:13.960
<v Speaker 1>I was so excited until I saw a pair of

0:26:14.000 --> 0:26:18.040
<v Speaker 1>pants was eighty dollars and now I'm heartbroken. Another said

0:26:18.160 --> 0:26:21.600
<v Speaker 1>more expensive than Peter Alexander full price and can easily

0:26:21.600 --> 0:26:24.320
<v Speaker 1>get theirs on sale. You mentioned that she has a

0:26:24.320 --> 0:26:27.320
<v Speaker 1>bikini line. It almost feels like she used the bikini

0:26:27.359 --> 0:26:30.080
<v Speaker 1>strategy of selling the tops and bottoms separately, Like, I

0:26:30.119 --> 0:26:32.640
<v Speaker 1>know that's something that has been happening in the pajama

0:26:32.640 --> 0:26:35.760
<v Speaker 1>space for a while. Well it's clever, it's well, it's

0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:38.480
<v Speaker 1>not clever if you're outpricing yourself. So I would never

0:26:38.560 --> 0:26:41.360
<v Speaker 1>pay one hundred dollars for a pair of pajama bottoms.

0:26:41.359 --> 0:26:44.879
<v Speaker 1>Maybe if they were the skims one. Now, these pajama

0:26:44.920 --> 0:26:48.199
<v Speaker 1>sets do come with a pretty hefty price tag, so

0:26:48.280 --> 0:26:51.000
<v Speaker 1>they range from one hundred and fifty eight dollars to

0:26:51.119 --> 0:26:55.520
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and eighteen, so very similar to the skimmed pajamas. Yeah,

0:26:55.640 --> 0:26:58.159
<v Speaker 1>and I was really as sounded to see, in particular

0:26:58.240 --> 0:27:02.320
<v Speaker 1>how expensive the summer pajamas were, so she has released

0:27:02.440 --> 0:27:06.520
<v Speaker 1>a selection of camis where the top basically has these

0:27:06.760 --> 0:27:10.840
<v Speaker 1>flaps that open to it labs split in the middle

0:27:11.200 --> 0:27:14.400
<v Speaker 1>to reveal your stomach. Now, there wasn't much material being

0:27:14.520 --> 0:27:17.400
<v Speaker 1>used on these, and they will individually set you back

0:27:17.600 --> 0:27:21.879
<v Speaker 1>seventy nine dollars, while a pair of matching shorts is

0:27:21.880 --> 0:27:25.920
<v Speaker 1>a further seventy nine dollars. Now, this material looked rather thin,

0:27:26.040 --> 0:27:27.760
<v Speaker 1>and it looked like something that you could get on

0:27:27.800 --> 0:27:31.080
<v Speaker 1>a fast fashion website. Obviously we have heard that there's

0:27:31.119 --> 0:27:34.320
<v Speaker 1>some special fabric which makes its skin friendly. Now, when

0:27:34.320 --> 0:27:37.080
<v Speaker 1>it came to the winter pajamas, a pair of long

0:27:37.240 --> 0:27:40.080
<v Speaker 1>pants is one hundred and nine dollars, well, the matching

0:27:40.200 --> 0:27:42.680
<v Speaker 1>shirt is one hundred nine. I understand what she's trying

0:27:42.680 --> 0:27:45.639
<v Speaker 1>to do here, and she's trying to put her pajama

0:27:45.680 --> 0:27:48.840
<v Speaker 1>line on a pedestal and say these are a luxury brand.

0:27:48.880 --> 0:27:51.520
<v Speaker 1>But she's marketed at all wrong. If she has missed

0:27:51.520 --> 0:27:53.960
<v Speaker 1>the whole point that these are a special material that

0:27:54.000 --> 0:27:55.679
<v Speaker 1>has kind to your skin, I think people would have

0:27:55.680 --> 0:27:58.199
<v Speaker 1>been okay with the price tag if that had been

0:27:58.240 --> 0:28:01.280
<v Speaker 1>properly promoted. As you've touched on skims, which is Kim

0:28:01.359 --> 0:28:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Kardashian's pajama line. They have a very similar price tag,

0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:08.800
<v Speaker 1>but they have really touted themselves as being a luxury

0:28:08.880 --> 0:28:11.200
<v Speaker 1>sleep brand, a hot item. Yeah, and you know, they've

0:28:11.240 --> 0:28:15.400
<v Speaker 1>selled great shapewear and underwear, like they've gained a big

0:28:15.480 --> 0:28:18.200
<v Speaker 1>name for themselves before they went into sleepwear. And I

0:28:18.240 --> 0:28:21.119
<v Speaker 1>feel like you expect that price tag from a brand

0:28:21.200 --> 0:28:24.359
<v Speaker 1>like Skims, but not from a small influencer brand like

0:28:24.480 --> 0:28:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Mowana Smile Club, particularly because these pajamas don't really look luxury.

0:28:30.240 --> 0:28:32.000
<v Speaker 1>They look more on I mean, I hate to say

0:28:32.040 --> 0:28:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I agree with that person's comment. They do look a

0:28:33.800 --> 0:28:36.159
<v Speaker 1>bit tacky. Well I do remember so for Dovera and

0:28:36.200 --> 0:28:39.280
<v Speaker 1>Lily Brown, their influencers that have pajama lines, and they've

0:28:39.320 --> 0:28:41.800
<v Speaker 1>also been slammed over the cost. And when you are

0:28:41.920 --> 0:28:45.080
<v Speaker 1>a smaller business, you actually have to put a bit

0:28:45.080 --> 0:28:47.920
<v Speaker 1>of a mark on the products. Also because you're not

0:28:47.920 --> 0:28:50.520
<v Speaker 1>buying them in bolk, so you don't get the discounts

0:28:50.560 --> 0:28:52.880
<v Speaker 1>that larger brands get. So it is always going to

0:28:52.880 --> 0:28:55.480
<v Speaker 1>be a little bit more expensive buying from a small brand.

0:28:55.880 --> 0:28:56.040
<v Speaker 5>Now.

0:28:56.240 --> 0:29:00.160
<v Speaker 1>Karina was quick to respond to the criticism, describing the

0:29:00.200 --> 0:29:03.760
<v Speaker 1>pricing as middle of the range, which wasn't very popular,

0:29:04.040 --> 0:29:06.920
<v Speaker 1>so under a comment critiquing the prices, she wrote, you

0:29:06.920 --> 0:29:09.320
<v Speaker 1>get what you pay for with the poking out tongue,

0:29:09.480 --> 0:29:12.680
<v Speaker 1>she continued, a lot of development has gone into these pieces.

0:29:12.880 --> 0:29:17.240
<v Speaker 1>They also aren't overpriced compared to other leading brands now.

0:29:17.280 --> 0:29:20.160
<v Speaker 1>In response to a customer asking how many washes and

0:29:20.200 --> 0:29:23.720
<v Speaker 1>whars they're likely to get out of the pajamas, Karina wrote,

0:29:23.760 --> 0:29:26.440
<v Speaker 1>I've never put out a bad product. I design everything

0:29:26.480 --> 0:29:29.160
<v Speaker 1>myself and back it with my life. I've been wearing

0:29:29.240 --> 0:29:32.120
<v Speaker 1>and washing these for two years. It's tried and tested,

0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:34.240
<v Speaker 1>to say the least. I had to get the perfect

0:29:34.240 --> 0:29:36.680
<v Speaker 1>custom fabric blend to cater for my ex met and

0:29:36.720 --> 0:29:39.880
<v Speaker 1>prescription creams. A lot of attention and detail has gone

0:29:39.880 --> 0:29:42.440
<v Speaker 1>into this new product, and as for the price, it's

0:29:42.480 --> 0:29:46.520
<v Speaker 1>middle range pricing when compared to other brands worldwide. This

0:29:46.680 --> 0:29:49.280
<v Speaker 1>just seems to be a common thing now happening to influencers.

0:29:49.320 --> 0:29:51.400
<v Speaker 1>There are so many out there that a lot of

0:29:51.440 --> 0:29:53.800
<v Speaker 1>us either don't know who they are or may know

0:29:53.960 --> 0:29:56.440
<v Speaker 1>them by face, but we don't know their backstory. So

0:29:56.880 --> 0:30:00.360
<v Speaker 1>potentially a lot of Arena's followers may know about her

0:30:00.400 --> 0:30:03.360
<v Speaker 1>issues with her skin and she might have breadcrumbed along

0:30:03.400 --> 0:30:07.040
<v Speaker 1>the way that she was designing this new pajama range

0:30:07.080 --> 0:30:10.160
<v Speaker 1>to help people with skin conditions like her, but she's

0:30:10.240 --> 0:30:12.480
<v Speaker 1>lost them in the marketing. Yeah, because I think it

0:30:12.600 --> 0:30:16.440
<v Speaker 1>needed to be reiterated in the announcement post and maybe

0:30:16.440 --> 0:30:19.160
<v Speaker 1>followed up with some Instagram stories. Yeah, but by saying

0:30:19.200 --> 0:30:21.120
<v Speaker 1>skin friendly, no one knows what that means. I mean,

0:30:21.160 --> 0:30:23.360
<v Speaker 1>if you haven't had an issue with your skin, yeah,

0:30:23.600 --> 0:30:25.760
<v Speaker 1>you don't know that you need skin friendly pajamas. Yeah.

0:30:25.800 --> 0:30:28.160
<v Speaker 1>And a follower was quick to point out that on

0:30:28.280 --> 0:30:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Mawana Smiles website, where the pajamas were listed, it didn't

0:30:32.440 --> 0:30:35.440
<v Speaker 1>outline what fabrics they were made from and where they

0:30:35.480 --> 0:30:39.800
<v Speaker 1>were manufactured. Karina has since updated all items to state

0:30:39.840 --> 0:30:43.160
<v Speaker 1>that they are made from ninety three percent lio seal,

0:30:43.280 --> 0:30:46.920
<v Speaker 1>which is a hypoallergenic fabric. Again, something that you would

0:30:46.920 --> 0:30:49.680
<v Speaker 1>have thought you'd lead with. Yeah, definitely. Now would you

0:30:49.840 --> 0:30:53.280
<v Speaker 1>pay over two hundred dollars for some pajamas? I want

0:30:53.280 --> 0:30:56.840
<v Speaker 1>to know? Look, I personally wouldn't. I have received some

0:30:56.960 --> 0:31:00.480
<v Speaker 1>nice pajamas recently for Christmas presents and birthday present. Ree's

0:31:00.520 --> 0:31:02.760
<v Speaker 1>got me some Peter Alexander sets that I probably wouldn't

0:31:02.760 --> 0:31:05.479
<v Speaker 1>have bought myself that I've really liked. So I think

0:31:05.520 --> 0:31:07.760
<v Speaker 1>they're a good present for people, but I don't know

0:31:07.760 --> 0:31:10.520
<v Speaker 1>if i'd personally fork out for them just for an

0:31:10.520 --> 0:31:13.400
<v Speaker 1>every day where. It's so ironic that this topic has

0:31:13.400 --> 0:31:17.959
<v Speaker 1>popped up because I have been fully into searching pajamas

0:31:17.960 --> 0:31:19.680
<v Speaker 1>because I really want to get a nice set of

0:31:19.720 --> 0:31:23.960
<v Speaker 1>winter pajamas for when I give birth. And my sister

0:31:24.000 --> 0:31:27.240
<v Speaker 1>in law recently gave birth to our new nephew a

0:31:27.240 --> 0:31:29.640
<v Speaker 1>couple of days ago, which is super exciting, and it

0:31:29.680 --> 0:31:31.440
<v Speaker 1>got me thinking like, oh, I want to make sure

0:31:31.440 --> 0:31:34.080
<v Speaker 1>that I get some black pajamas so that they don't

0:31:34.080 --> 0:31:37.320
<v Speaker 1>get dirty or anything on them. And I actually would

0:31:37.360 --> 0:31:40.520
<v Speaker 1>pay two hundred dollars for a nice quality pair that's

0:31:40.560 --> 0:31:44.360
<v Speaker 1>going to last me, that's comfortable and soft. You're probably

0:31:44.360 --> 0:31:47.760
<v Speaker 1>like me. So when I was organizing my hospital bag,

0:31:47.800 --> 0:31:50.920
<v Speaker 1>I came across Chantel Stanton, the model in influence of her.

0:31:51.320 --> 0:31:53.080
<v Speaker 1>She had a baby, I think a year ago now,

0:31:53.120 --> 0:31:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I think he just celebrated his first birthday. And I

0:31:55.760 --> 0:31:57.840
<v Speaker 1>looked at everything that she'd put in a hospital bag,

0:31:57.920 --> 0:32:01.920
<v Speaker 1>and she was wearing the black skin vas over two

0:32:02.000 --> 0:32:04.160
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars and I was like, do I buy them?

0:32:04.240 --> 0:32:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Do I not? My advice would be to not buy

0:32:06.960 --> 0:32:10.800
<v Speaker 1>expensive vajamas for the hospital. I bought myself to nineties

0:32:11.120 --> 0:32:13.680
<v Speaker 1>because night is better because it's got buttons and that

0:32:13.720 --> 0:32:16.160
<v Speaker 1>you can just undo if you're breastfeeding. So does the

0:32:16.200 --> 0:32:18.840
<v Speaker 1>pajama top, yes, Sophie, but you don't want to be

0:32:18.880 --> 0:32:22.600
<v Speaker 1>wearing pajama pants when you've either given birth vaginally or

0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:24.920
<v Speaker 1>had a C section, because there's a lot going on

0:32:25.000 --> 0:32:27.560
<v Speaker 1>down there and nurses have to come in and change

0:32:27.600 --> 0:32:30.240
<v Speaker 1>pads and do this and that. I mean, I don't

0:32:30.240 --> 0:32:32.160
<v Speaker 1>even think I was wearing undis most of the time

0:32:32.240 --> 0:32:34.280
<v Speaker 1>the first night, so well as I thought that I

0:32:34.360 --> 0:32:36.160
<v Speaker 1>might want a nice pair to wear when people come

0:32:36.200 --> 0:32:38.000
<v Speaker 1>over to visit me at my house and that sort

0:32:38.000 --> 0:32:39.760
<v Speaker 1>of thing. Yeah, I mean you can wear them after,

0:32:39.920 --> 0:32:41.920
<v Speaker 1>but again you're going to be getting vomit on them.

0:32:42.160 --> 0:32:45.040
<v Speaker 1>I would actually invest in a really nice dressing gown instead.

0:32:45.160 --> 0:32:47.080
<v Speaker 1>I definitely don't think that I'll be on the pr

0:32:47.160 --> 0:32:50.760
<v Speaker 1>less for Karina Irby after this topic, but I just

0:32:50.880 --> 0:32:53.400
<v Speaker 1>really find it interesting to see how she is trying

0:32:53.400 --> 0:32:56.840
<v Speaker 1>to position this brand. We've seen the likes of Matilda

0:32:56.920 --> 0:33:00.960
<v Speaker 1>Jurf selling very expensive sleep wear and dress gowns. Obviously

0:33:00.960 --> 0:33:03.320
<v Speaker 1>there is a market there well, that fruit dressing gown

0:33:03.320 --> 0:33:05.920
<v Speaker 1>that might be on discoun I always yeah, exactly on

0:33:06.080 --> 0:33:08.640
<v Speaker 1>super sale now. But I think where she went wrong

0:33:08.720 --> 0:33:12.200
<v Speaker 1>potentially is that the designs didn't really reflect a feeling

0:33:12.240 --> 0:33:15.680
<v Speaker 1>of prestige or quality. For me, designs were a little

0:33:15.680 --> 0:33:19.760
<v Speaker 1>bit colorful and looked very fast fashioning. And also her

0:33:19.800 --> 0:33:22.480
<v Speaker 1>audience probably don't have that expendable budget.

0:33:22.640 --> 0:33:24.040
<v Speaker 7>Made a new friend called Patrick.

0:33:24.640 --> 0:33:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Matt Sakowski has given it insight into how he and

0:33:27.720 --> 0:33:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Tammy Hembro navigate arguments, and I actually think this is genius.

0:33:32.280 --> 0:33:35.080
<v Speaker 1>So Matt revealed on his podcast that he and Tammy

0:33:35.120 --> 0:33:38.600
<v Speaker 1>have made up a mystical person called Patrick that lives

0:33:38.640 --> 0:33:42.200
<v Speaker 1>with them, who they blame everything on in an attempt

0:33:42.240 --> 0:33:45.360
<v Speaker 1>to diffuse arguments. Let's have listened to what Matt said.

0:33:45.960 --> 0:33:47.360
<v Speaker 7>Made a new friend called Patrick.

0:33:48.040 --> 0:33:52.960
<v Speaker 6>Okay, look elaborate, you know, I do want to know more.

0:33:52.960 --> 0:33:55.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm just confused. So I haven't heard of Patrick.

0:33:55.880 --> 0:34:01.720
<v Speaker 5>Patrick is a made up mystical person, So yeah, roommate

0:34:01.920 --> 0:34:04.959
<v Speaker 5>if you must. And he lives with Tammy and I

0:34:05.360 --> 0:34:10.880
<v Speaker 5>and we blame everything on him that has so for instance,

0:34:10.920 --> 0:34:14.799
<v Speaker 5>a we'll say, ah, babe, Patrick keeps leaving his bikinis

0:34:14.840 --> 0:34:18.279
<v Speaker 5>in the bathroom, and she'll be like, oh, okay, or

0:34:18.440 --> 0:34:21.080
<v Speaker 5>she'll be like, Matt, Patrick doesn't make the bed in

0:34:21.080 --> 0:34:22.400
<v Speaker 5>the mor you know what I mean. And then we

0:34:22.480 --> 0:34:24.480
<v Speaker 5>blame Patrick for all this sort of stuff to make

0:34:24.520 --> 0:34:25.319
<v Speaker 5>it less.

0:34:25.920 --> 0:34:30.920
<v Speaker 1>Guys against the problem. That is literally the couple against

0:34:30.920 --> 0:34:31.400
<v Speaker 1>the problem.

0:34:31.600 --> 0:34:36.520
<v Speaker 7>It is, isn't it? And Patrick fucking problem, isn't he? God?

0:34:36.600 --> 0:34:37.480
<v Speaker 7>Damn it? Patrick?

0:34:38.080 --> 0:34:40.640
<v Speaker 1>God? This Patrick sounds like a bit of a lazy slob.

0:34:40.680 --> 0:34:42.600
<v Speaker 1>I feel like there's a Patrick living at my house

0:34:42.600 --> 0:34:44.719
<v Speaker 1>at the moment as well. I might have to implement this.

0:34:44.880 --> 0:34:46.960
<v Speaker 1>Does Patrick take all the towels and leave them on

0:34:47.000 --> 0:34:49.319
<v Speaker 1>the floor or is that you? I think there's two

0:34:49.400 --> 0:34:53.360
<v Speaker 1>Patrick's that. I think it's great though, because I know

0:34:53.520 --> 0:34:55.680
<v Speaker 1>Kate with you, you've got your two dogs, and you

0:34:55.760 --> 0:34:58.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of diffuse arguments with the dogs that you will

0:34:58.160 --> 0:35:00.400
<v Speaker 1>have a dog voice, And yeah, each dog has their

0:35:00.440 --> 0:35:04.640
<v Speaker 1>own personality, and it's not so much like with tours

0:35:04.680 --> 0:35:07.120
<v Speaker 1>around the house. It's more of you want to say

0:35:07.160 --> 0:35:09.080
<v Speaker 1>something a bit edgy and it sounds cuter in the

0:35:09.120 --> 0:35:11.439
<v Speaker 1>dog's voice. Well, dad, stop being a prick. I think

0:35:11.440 --> 0:35:14.560
<v Speaker 1>as we approach motherhood amy, we should take a leaf

0:35:14.600 --> 0:35:17.000
<v Speaker 1>out of Tammy and Matt's book and introduce this Patrick

0:35:17.080 --> 0:35:20.479
<v Speaker 1>character because I think when tensions are high, it adds

0:35:20.520 --> 0:35:23.000
<v Speaker 1>a bit of comedic value. Doesn't it end up? Like

0:35:23.040 --> 0:35:24.839
<v Speaker 1>with the dog voices, you end up having a voice

0:35:24.840 --> 0:35:27.200
<v Speaker 1>for your baby as well, and they help you diffuse

0:35:27.200 --> 0:35:29.719
<v Speaker 1>the situation too. I think the three of us need

0:35:29.719 --> 0:35:33.520
<v Speaker 1>a Patrick in our friendship and working relationship to blame

0:35:33.560 --> 0:35:36.200
<v Speaker 1>it on. Like, Oh, Patrick didn't finish his run sheet

0:35:36.200 --> 0:35:39.440
<v Speaker 1>for the podcast. Patrick put an error in the podcast

0:35:40.160 --> 0:35:43.200
<v Speaker 1>as idiot Patrick talking about fake tanning children. I love

0:35:43.239 --> 0:35:45.480
<v Speaker 1>that the name is Patrick as well, Like, it's just

0:35:45.520 --> 0:35:48.160
<v Speaker 1>such a ramated one. Let's make one up for the podcast.

0:35:48.200 --> 0:35:49.880
<v Speaker 1>But I think it needs to be a girl. What's it?

0:35:50.160 --> 0:35:53.040
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we'll throw it out to our podcast listeners. Can

0:35:53.080 --> 0:35:55.400
<v Speaker 1>you help us come up with a Patrick with a

0:35:55.440 --> 0:35:57.960
<v Speaker 1>girl's name who we can blame all of our podcast

0:35:58.000 --> 0:36:00.640
<v Speaker 1>issues on and all of our fights on. Before we Go,

0:36:00.960 --> 0:36:03.560
<v Speaker 1>I was really hoping to put together a segment on

0:36:03.719 --> 0:36:07.319
<v Speaker 1>m Davies's wedding all we can. I've been hanging out

0:36:07.320 --> 0:36:10.319
<v Speaker 1>to see photos. She's been dropping a lot of crumbs. Yeah,

0:36:10.360 --> 0:36:12.720
<v Speaker 1>she's been She put up tiktoks, like on the morning

0:36:12.760 --> 0:36:15.600
<v Speaker 1>of her wedding. Yeah, and it's clear that someone has

0:36:15.640 --> 0:36:18.040
<v Speaker 1>actually uploaded a photo of her in her dress, because

0:36:18.040 --> 0:36:20.480
<v Speaker 1>she did put a little reminder out of people not

0:36:20.520 --> 0:36:22.880
<v Speaker 1>to put up photos before she has. Yeah, that was interesting.

0:36:22.920 --> 0:36:25.520
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, so she hasn't put out her photos just yet,

0:36:25.560 --> 0:36:27.560
<v Speaker 1>So we are going to hold off to talk about

0:36:27.600 --> 0:36:30.640
<v Speaker 1>that on Friday. What's the bet because we're recording this

0:36:30.760 --> 0:36:33.799
<v Speaker 1>on Monday afternoon. She's going to put them out tonight. Yeah,

0:36:33.800 --> 0:36:36.040
<v Speaker 1>it looks silly. Yeah, well, I feel like she might

0:36:36.120 --> 0:36:39.400
<v Speaker 1>have a deal with Vogue or another publication similar to

0:36:39.400 --> 0:36:42.000
<v Speaker 1>what Tammy Hambro had, so we might be waiting a

0:36:42.000 --> 0:36:45.080
<v Speaker 1>little while to see them. But I am so excited

0:36:45.120 --> 0:36:46.920
<v Speaker 1>to see her dress. I think it's going to be

0:36:47.000 --> 0:36:51.200
<v Speaker 1>something quite different and out there. She's obviously a fashion designer,

0:36:51.200 --> 0:36:53.160
<v Speaker 1>she had her fashion brand. We think there's going to

0:36:53.200 --> 0:36:55.960
<v Speaker 1>be a visible g string in any of She's already

0:36:55.960 --> 0:36:57.920
<v Speaker 1>done it. She's done it, so she doesn't need to

0:36:57.920 --> 0:37:00.080
<v Speaker 1>do it again. I just have the dedication that she

0:37:00.239 --> 0:37:02.520
<v Speaker 1>ACKed up three tiktoks on the day of a wedding.

0:37:02.680 --> 0:37:04.640
<v Speaker 1>I have a soft spot for m Davies. I really

0:37:04.680 --> 0:37:06.719
<v Speaker 1>like her content ever since she's become a mum. I

0:37:06.719 --> 0:37:09.359
<v Speaker 1>think she's a lot more relatable and I've just seen

0:37:09.400 --> 0:37:12.120
<v Speaker 1>a really lovely side of her developed through motherhood. Well,

0:37:12.120 --> 0:37:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Tammy Hembro enlisted the help. I think it was that

0:37:14.280 --> 0:37:16.640
<v Speaker 1>well known girl on TikTok that does all of the

0:37:16.719 --> 0:37:19.600
<v Speaker 1>social media content for weddings. She is going to wedding

0:37:19.600 --> 0:37:22.400
<v Speaker 1>and content creator. That's the name I'm looking for, So

0:37:22.440 --> 0:37:25.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm guessing the m Davies probably has the same woman.

0:37:25.640 --> 0:37:27.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, but a lot of the videos she put

0:37:27.400 --> 0:37:29.440
<v Speaker 1>up with her speaking to camera, so I got the

0:37:29.520 --> 0:37:31.359
