Speaker 1: This is Outspoken. The podcast is not afraid to say
Speaker 1: exactly what you're thinking.
Speaker 2: Our names are Amy Kay and Sophie Torber.
Speaker 1: We're identical triplets, but we often don't have identical opinions,
Speaker 1: so sometimes things can get heated. Outspoken covers all things
Speaker 1: reality TV, influencers, entertainment and issues facing women.
Speaker 3: That is so fatch.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Welcome back to Outspoken.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 2: This week, I've really been.
Speaker 1: Reminiscing on my first job because it all started when
Speaker 1: I was listening to Jamazing, which is a podcast by
Speaker 1: Chris Lily and for anyone who hasn't heard it, it
Speaker 1: is so bloody funny. He takes the piss out of
Speaker 1: Australian influencers with his character Jamai King, and basically she's
Speaker 1: a wanna be influencer and a spoil rich kid. And
Speaker 1: in this series, I really think Chris Lily has gone
Speaker 1: back and done his research because she's drinking spicy mugs,
Speaker 1: she's pretending to be woke.
Speaker 2: It's bloody brilliant.
Speaker 1: So in the most recent episode, Jamay is forced to
Speaker 1: look for a job because she's actually having to pay
Speaker 1: for her rent and I found it so funny because
Speaker 1: she said she was out putting a resume in it
Speaker 1: all these retail stores, Zimmerman and Scanler and Theodore, and
Speaker 1: then she said that she had a weak moment and
Speaker 1: put a resume in at Baker's Delight, which is where
Speaker 1: we all had our first job. And it just made
Speaker 1: me laugh thinking back at that time. And of course
Speaker 1: she gets the job, but Baker's Delight, That's a bit
Speaker 1: I love the most about this podcast.
Speaker 2: I feel like Chris Silly has.
Speaker 1: Worked at Baker's Delight before, or he knows someone who has,
Speaker 1: because his analogies or stories about Baker's Delight are literally
Speaker 1: spot on. Because one I really related to was Jammay
Speaker 1: saying that every time her manager leaves, she takes her
Speaker 1: hair head off because that was literally me. I hated
Speaker 1: those hairnets and I would always try and pull my
Speaker 1: hair out of the cap because it's just so unflattering.
Speaker 2: I can't remember.
Speaker 1: Did we have to wear a hat over the hairnet? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you were a hat and then you had to have
Speaker 1: a hairnet with your ponytail or barn in it. It
Speaker 1: was not a good look. It doesn't really make sense
Speaker 1: because it's not like you're actually base the bread. You're
Speaker 1: literally just putting it in a bag, I know, but
Speaker 1: I feel like it's the esthetics of it, so it
Speaker 1: looks like, you know, you're part of the crew baking, well,
Speaker 1: you are slicing the bread. So I suppose a rogue
Speaker 1: hare could fall in there talking about the bread. I
Speaker 1: used to hate it because there was a certain type
Speaker 1: of customer, usually a middle aged woman, that would come
Speaker 1: in and demand that you slice the bread vertically rather
Speaker 1: than horizontally, because I actually had to ask one of
Speaker 1: the senior staff members and it was apparently because they
Speaker 1: make pin wheels, yeah, bread pinwheels, And it was so hard.
Speaker 1: I always used to pretend that I knew how to
Speaker 1: do it, and then someone would have to help me,
Speaker 1: and it was just so embarrassing.
Speaker 2: Don't you love that At.
Speaker 1: Those sort of first time jobs, are's always somebody that
Speaker 1: knows everything that you can run to. It's like it's
Speaker 1: easier for them to put in the order and cut
Speaker 1: the bread. Now. I'm not going to name names, but
Speaker 1: one of the managers there, she had worked there since
Speaker 1: she was twelve or thirteen, so she'd been there for
Speaker 1: about nine years, and she was such a bully there.
Speaker 1: I couldn't stand working with her. She would always pull
Speaker 1: me aside after the shift and tell me everything that
Speaker 1: I'd done wrong. And there was this other guy there
Speaker 1: that we nicknamed bread Men and literally so one of
Speaker 1: the things that Baker's Delight is you always have to
Speaker 1: look like you're busy, so you have to pretend to
Speaker 1: be restocking the shelves, and I remember I would be
Speaker 1: on my hands and knees restocking the shells and he
Speaker 1: would stand on my apron strands and then he'd say
Speaker 1: stand up, and I'd stand up and the apron would
Speaker 1: come off, and I don't know, it was all a
Speaker 1: bit creepy.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: One of the best parts about working at Baker's Delight, though,
Speaker 1: was the fact that you got to take home so
Speaker 1: much stuff if you close, because I remember we'd be
Speaker 1: like stock stacking the car with finger buns and you'd
Speaker 1: be dropping bits of bread off at different people's houses.
Speaker 2: Well they were supposed to give.
Speaker 1: I think they gave all of the bread to charity,
Speaker 1: and then all of the sort of sweet items they
Speaker 1: couldn't give away for some reason, so you did get
Speaker 1: to take them all home, no, because I remember so
Speaker 1: that when the boss was there, you could only take
Speaker 1: one thing on your shift, and then the charity would
Speaker 1: come in and take the bread. However, she would then
Speaker 1: just slide all of the sweet stuff, like all the
Speaker 1: delicious finger buns into the bin, and I could never
Speaker 1: understand why the owner wouldn't want to give them to
Speaker 1: the staff rather than binning them.
Speaker 2: I so reckon though.
Speaker 1: As the episodes go on with Jamazing, I think that
Speaker 1: Jamay is going to get really heavily involved in Baker's Delight,
Speaker 1: and she is going to be that person who's there
Speaker 1: for nine years who's telling all of the people they
Speaker 1: are what they're doing wrong.
Speaker 2: No, she totally is.
Speaker 1: She's going to get to the franchise. No, I think
Speaker 1: she'll get fired. Yeah, I reckon she'll get fired as well.
Speaker 1: I really want to hear other people's first job stories
Speaker 1: because I feel like there's a lot of funny stuff
Speaker 1: that goes on in your first job, or even the
Speaker 1: behind the scenes stories that people might not know. Like
Speaker 1: I love hearing stories about Hungry Jackson McDonald's.
Speaker 4: I'm eating a light of finger buns, Oh my god,
Speaker 4: And I keep like scraping the icing off with my
Speaker 4: Cartier bracelet, Like when I go to put the finger
Speaker 4: bunds in a bag, it'll like accidentally scrape off this
Speaker 4: big chunk of icing and then I just like when
Speaker 4: the customer's gone to just like nibble it off the bracelet.
Speaker 4: I keep getting busted to for not wearing my hand hat,
Speaker 4: so like as soon as the how did you guys,
Speaker 4: I just like take it off.
Speaker 2: It's like, fuck it.
Speaker 4: It looks so fucking disgusting.
Speaker 1: Like rumors are swirling after Chloe Zepp and Mitchell Orville's
Speaker 1: Gold Coast home was put up for sale less than
Speaker 1: a year after they purchased it. Now, so this has
Speaker 1: come as a surprise to many followers. Yeah, it really
Speaker 1: has come as a surprise, particularly because the couple have
Speaker 1: just put the finishing touches on their newly renovated Paul
Speaker 1: area and also Mitch has just updated his much spoken
Speaker 1: about movie room. Now. As you mentioned, Amy, Mitch and
Speaker 1: Chloe have owned the property for less than a year
Speaker 1: now now. On the ninth of February last year, the
Speaker 1: couple announced to their followers they had purchased their family
Speaker 1: home after years of renting. Now. Their son Artie was
Speaker 1: only five months old at the time, and Chloe said,
Speaker 1: you couldn't wait to create memories in their family home.
Speaker 1: At the time, Mitch had the news on Instagram, posting
Speaker 1: a photo of himself, Chloe Zepp, and their son Artie
Speaker 1: standing in front of a sould sign. In the caption,
Speaker 1: he wrote, the greatest feeling in the world. Five years together,
Speaker 1: a beautiful son, and now our first home. The last
Speaker 1: year and a half has been a whole lot of growing,
Speaker 1: pain and accountability. Two years ago I went to my
Speaker 1: accountant with a lot of tax and financial problems. My
Speaker 1: party habits were expensive, and my life was slowly spiraling downhill.
Speaker 1: This is proof that it's never too late to put
Speaker 1: your head down and make something of yourself. So fucking
Speaker 1: proud and happy. Can't wait to start the next chapter
Speaker 1: of my life with my family. March eleven couldn't come
Speaker 1: soon enough now. This post caused a lot of controversy,
Speaker 1: and shortly after it, Chloe and Mitch called for privacy
Speaker 1: because followers managed to track down their address from the post.
Speaker 1: So despite the fact that Mitch had blurred out the
Speaker 1: address on the for sale sign, he left the property description,
Speaker 1: which ultimately led intrigued followers to find the address by
Speaker 1: simply googling the property description. It was pretty easy to find.
Speaker 1: I do remember all these posts were popping up where
Speaker 1: people were saying, oh my god, I know where they live.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm looking for a house at the moment,
Speaker 1: And to be honest, it is really easy to work
Speaker 1: out where people live when they do share the fact
Speaker 1: that they've just bought a house, and.
Speaker 2: It's really easy if you look under the sold section.
Speaker 3: It really just popped up.
Speaker 1: So a few hours later, Chloe and Mitch both removed
Speaker 1: their posts and took to Instagram to explain why. Chloe
Speaker 1: shared a photo of herself looking annoyed to her Instagram
Speaker 1: story with the caption, people trying to find our address
Speaker 1: on real estate are the reason we can't share pics. Sorry, Pam.
Speaker 1: I wish people weren't so creepy and could respect our privacy,
Speaker 1: but here we are. She followed up with another story
Speaker 1: with the caption there's people dming me my address seriously.
Speaker 1: Mitch went on to write, had to delete the photo
Speaker 1: of our house. Sadly, we can't share these moments without
Speaker 1: people trying to google and find our address and share
Speaker 1: it around. We are slowly finding it harder and harder
Speaker 1: to share private parts of our lives without people overstepping,
Speaker 1: and since having ardi privacy is far more important to
Speaker 1: us than it ever has been before, it is a
Speaker 1: fair point because if you look at Molly May and
Speaker 1: Tommy in England, they had their house robbed after sharing
Speaker 1: too much information online about it, So I can understand
Speaker 1: why they would have been a bit distressed that people
Speaker 1: were sending them their address. Yeah, particularly when you've got
Speaker 1: a young son and would be really scary to know
Speaker 1: that people were trying to find where you live and
Speaker 1: potentially drive past the house. And I think most people
Speaker 1: are probably just being nosy, but it's hard to differentiate
Speaker 1: between the people who are nosy and the people who
Speaker 1: are actually going to potentially.
Speaker 3: Rock up and rob them or harm them.
Speaker 1: Well, talking about being a little bit nosy, influencer watchdog
Speaker 1: account Influencer Updates revealed that a local real estate company
Speaker 1: had recently listed Chloe and Mitch's mansion on the Instagram
Speaker 1: account as a property coming soon. Influencer Updates was careful
Speaker 1: not to include the name of the real estate company
Speaker 1: as she didn't want to reveal the location of the house,
Speaker 1: so Influencer Updates also revealed that the couple's personal assistant,
Speaker 1: whose business is called Sorted by v is in the
Speaker 1: process of selling their furniture, listing dining chairs, barstools, side tables,
Speaker 1: and living room chairs all up for sale on the
Speaker 1: PA's Instagram account. It appears some items need to be
Speaker 1: gone urgently, with the description saying need gone asap. Amongst
Speaker 1: those items was Mitch's infamous Louisverton scooter with the price
Speaker 1: tag of three point five thousand dollars. In terms of
Speaker 1: this excuter for those that were wondering, because there was
Speaker 1: a few questions saying, what the hell has Louis Vton
Speaker 1: released a new scooter. It's actually just wrapped in a
Speaker 1: Louis Vuton branding. Yeah, because when I saw that, I
Speaker 1: was like, that's pretty cheap for a Louis Vuitton's scooter
Speaker 1: three and a half grand. I actually liked some of
Speaker 1: those chairs. I was like, Oh, I wonder if we
Speaker 1: could reach out, and they did look a bit born.
Speaker 1: Really they would have been new, though, because every roomor
Speaker 1: they moved in and everything they got was basically new.
Speaker 1: Every influencer moves house and buys all new furniture to
Speaker 1: fit it. I actually thought the pricing was quite reasonable.
Speaker 1: I'm quite sad that I don't live on the Gold
Speaker 1: Coast and can't take advantage of this sale. Might be
Speaker 1: a little bit orkies rocking up to collect the items,
Speaker 1: I think after discussing them on the podcast. So rumors
Speaker 1: ever split started circulating, while others thought the couple may
Speaker 1: be moving overseas, as Chloe has made comments in the
Speaker 1: past about wanting to live in Bali or Hawaii. Now,
Speaker 1: the split roomors were quickly shot down when Chloe included
Speaker 1: Mitch in her Insta stories showing off her new ZIP headquarters.
Speaker 1: So Chloe had Gold Coast interior designers Studio Beck styling
Speaker 1: the office, which is said to be finished in a
Speaker 1: week's time, so it's obvious they're not moving overseas now.
Speaker 1: The other rumor that started gaining traction is that they're downsizing.
Speaker 1: So many people are speculating that Chloe's active wear Brown
Speaker 1: Zep is facing money problems after their very controversial anti
Speaker 1: vax stance last year, which saw many women creating videos
Speaker 1: throwing out their ZEP activewear. Now, this is of course
Speaker 1: just speculation and the Zeps have not confirmed any of
Speaker 1: this information at all. The other thought is that Mitch
Speaker 1: also isn't working across social media, so potentially he doesn't
Speaker 1: have accessible funds to pay a very expensive mortgage or
Speaker 1: to live their luxurious lifestyle. Now. There is also a
Speaker 1: very hot rumor that they are waiting for Angry Dad
Speaker 1: and Sharon to settle their house in Melbourne. Then they
Speaker 1: will combine their money to purchase land to build two
Speaker 1: houses so they're close to one another.
Speaker 2: Again.
Speaker 1: There's also a rumor going around that Dylan and Crystal
Speaker 1: will get in on the deal and also build a
Speaker 1: house nearby. So it kind of sounds like the Woo
Speaker 1: Woo commune and village that people would speculating about a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. And I do have to point
Speaker 1: out and reiterate this is just a rumor at the moment.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but I can't.
Speaker 1: Imagine Angry Dad being part of that Woo Woo lifestyle.
Speaker 1: I mean to now I changed a bit on his Instagram,
Speaker 1: but it kind of sounds nice and are living near
Speaker 1: each other in a big house, like I can imagine
Speaker 1: wanting to do that with you guys. Yeah, I wouldn't mind,
Speaker 1: but I feel like with the three of us, they'd
Speaker 1: probably I don't know if for the same street or
Speaker 1: next door to each other. I think that could be dangerous.
Speaker 1: I think nice and close. Now. There was also some
Speaker 1: speculation that perhaps the couple were moving due to privacy reasons,
Speaker 1: and that they wouldn't want the fact that they were
Speaker 1: moving to be highly publicized due to the fact that
Speaker 1: they still appear to be living in the house. So
Speaker 1: I was really surprised to see that real estate dot
Speaker 1: Com had printed a full article on their news section
Speaker 1: promoting the fact that Mitch and Chloe's house is up
Speaker 1: for sale now. In the article, they list the full address,
Speaker 1: include a photo of the house's exterior, and also a
Speaker 1: map showing the property's proximity to the water, as well
Speaker 1: as what the couple pay for the house. So they
Speaker 1: revealed that Chloe and Mitch paid one point eight five
Speaker 1: million dollars.
Speaker 2: Well, this makes me.
Speaker 1: Think that they're clearly not living there. The fact that
Speaker 1: they're selling off their furniture. I wonder if they've already
Speaker 1: moved into a new place, already furnished it, and now
Speaker 1: they just need to get rid of the stuff before
Speaker 1: some of the Chloe's well, Chloe has been posting a
Speaker 1: lot of her in an apartment near the water, and
Speaker 1: she was doing that before the house went up for sale.
Speaker 2: Chloe also has.
Speaker 1: Been posting a lot about why she is missing from
Speaker 1: Instagram and all about the fact that she's going through something.
Speaker 1: So I do feel like there could be some validity
Speaker 1: in this whole split rumor. Do you know what's so
Speaker 1: bizarre about this article? Though? As I said, you would think,
Speaker 1: judging by the couple's previous behavior about not wanting to
Speaker 1: have photos of the front of their house up online,
Speaker 1: that you know they would be a bit cautious when
Speaker 1: promoting this property to the real estate market. But it
Speaker 1: sounds like they must have given their blessing because their
Speaker 1: real estate agent was quoted throughout the article, so they
Speaker 1: have their agent. Mitch Lambert said, what a better time
Speaker 1: than when the market is so buoyant for them to
Speaker 1: make a lifestyle change. They are planning to stay local
Speaker 1: on the Gold Coast. They've got some really exciting projects
Speaker 1: coming up as a family now. He also said in
Speaker 1: the article that the couple only bought the property twelve
Speaker 1: months ago, but have decided to take advantage of the
Speaker 1: booming Gold Coast market. Isn't that basically just like saying, hey, suckers,
Speaker 1: here's a house that they bought for one point eighty
Speaker 1: five and we're just going to bump it up. Do
Speaker 1: you think this is a bit of pr management because
Speaker 1: the article only came out once all these rumors started circulating,
Speaker 1: So don't you think it would be a way for
Speaker 1: the couple to control the narrative. Actually, we're selling it
Speaker 1: to take advantage of the market. We're in actual fact,
Speaker 1: it might be a case that there is a split,
Speaker 1: but they're trying to cover it up because Mitch for
Speaker 1: months has been talking about the him and Chloe aren't
Speaker 1: going well. Mitch has disappeared off social media. Then suddenly
Speaker 1: Chloe is saying that she's going through something. It just
Speaker 1: doesn't really make sense that suddenly they're like, oh no,
Speaker 1: we're actually just selling our house after being here for
Speaker 1: nine months because of the property market. I don't know
Speaker 1: how happy they would have been with the rest of
Speaker 1: the article, because it was really weird.
Speaker 2: At the end.
Speaker 1: The journalists had tacked on a couple of lines about
Speaker 1: how Chloe and Mitch had hit headlines when they didn't
Speaker 1: wear masks at bigw and also the fact that Chloe
Speaker 1: supports Chinese medicine. I mean they didn't say she was
Speaker 1: anti facts, but they were alluding to it. Another really
Speaker 1: weird part of the article also was when the marketing
Speaker 1: agent reiterated that the couple had extensively renovated the house,
Speaker 1: and that information was jux supposed with the news that
Speaker 1: the street featured a raft of what they referred to
Speaker 1: as mega mansions, with the highest sale on the street
Speaker 1: going for a whopping fourteen point five million dollars in October.
Speaker 1: So it just reiterates the fact that clearly the Orvils
Speaker 1: and Zeps are set to make a lot of money
Speaker 1: off selling this house, particularly because they have renovated it.
Speaker 1: Do you think maybe that real Estate dot Com actually
Speaker 1: approached Chloe and Mitch after all of the rumors started circulating,
Speaker 1: and then the Asia was like, oh well, it's already
Speaker 1: out there, we may as well make it look like
Speaker 1: we were aware and where Kyle, I personally think it's
Speaker 1: pr management. I personally think that they would have thought,
Speaker 1: how are we going to spin this now? Chloe's EP
Speaker 1: sister weighed in on the discussion. A follower asked her
Speaker 1: in a Q and A why are Chloe and Mitch
Speaker 1: selling their house, to which she responded because they want
Speaker 1: to now. She also commented on Mitch's absence on social media.
Speaker 1: So a follower asked, a Mitch and Chloe, Okay, I
Speaker 1: know he is quite on socials, but then scene sorry,
Speaker 1: that hurts my soul to say that, but then seen
Speaker 1: Chloe's story yesterday. Now. Kate responded, saying, Mitch is completely
Speaker 1: off insta and I don't think he will be returning.
Speaker 1: Sad he's gone because he was so good at what
Speaker 1: he did and he used his platform to help so
Speaker 1: many others. Chloe is the most amazing human I know. Honestly,
Speaker 1: I'm so lucky to have a sister like her. She's
Speaker 1: going through it right now, but she's legit superwoman. They're
Speaker 1: two of the closest people to me, and I will
Speaker 1: do anything for them. So Kate actually messaged Mitch to clarify.
Speaker 1: Mitch sent back a lengthy post saying there comes a
Speaker 1: point in time where you need to weigh up what
Speaker 1: you're doing and ask if that's really of service to
Speaker 1: you anymore. Social media threw me under a public microscope,
Speaker 1: which accelerated the speed in which I was forced to
Speaker 1: go through experiences publicly and felt the need to have
Speaker 1: to share everything. After a while, it was clear the
Speaker 1: path that I wanted to choose in life could not
Speaker 1: be served through social media. Living a life and having
Speaker 1: to prove that I have one were two contradictions I
Speaker 1: was struggling to bring together every day, and for me,
Speaker 1: that sacrifice is getting offline and not fulfilling the need
Speaker 1: for validation from everyone else online, but ignoring it from
Speaker 1: the four walls of my home. I love my new path,
Speaker 1: and I thank God every day for showing me I
Speaker 1: can still have some aspirations, but go through different doors.
Speaker 1: The need to earn and succeed and grow and become
Speaker 1: more will never disappear, but for this life, it will
Speaker 1: not be on social media anymore. Does anyone think that
Speaker 1: there is any truth in what Mitch is saying that
Speaker 1: he's never going to be back on social media, because
Speaker 1: I still think he is biding his time before he's back.
Speaker 1: He's going to I think he's going to come back
Speaker 1: bigger and better than ever. And I just think that
Speaker 1: there's a bit of rebranding going on. I mean, we
Speaker 1: saw that ZEP is under a big rebrand for twenty
Speaker 1: twenty two and see the whole family align low into
Speaker 1: a sort of anti vax sentiment that surrounded them has disappeared.
Speaker 5: We haven't even told them.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we bought house. We bought our first family
Speaker 3: home just so we.
Speaker 5: Can settle with Artie.
Speaker 3: And yeah, we've been renting the ages, so we wanted.
Speaker 5: To get into the market. The market's been crazy, but
Speaker 5: we finally found something.
Speaker 1: Slickstick owner Mia Plastic has turned thirty in style holding
Speaker 1: a lavish affair at a mansion in the Mornington Peninsula.
Speaker 1: So can you tell us a little bit more about
Speaker 1: the party. Yeah, well, the theme was Capri for a
Speaker 1: Day and it was held at the Merrick's North Glasshouse Villa,
Speaker 1: which overlooks the Coastal One region. Now, the property is
Speaker 1: known for its unique architecture with huge glass ceilings and
Speaker 1: it is an absolutely stunning property. It sleeps up to
Speaker 1: eight guests across four different suites and it has a
Speaker 1: soul a heated swimming pool overlooking the vineyard.
Speaker 2: Now there's also but you just turned into a real
Speaker 2: estate agent.
Speaker 1: We have story about Chloe and Mitch's house. I'm enjoying
Speaker 1: your take on this party. I think I know we're
Speaker 1: looking for an airbnb to stay at for our thirty
Speaker 1: third birthday.
Speaker 2: Is this available so well range?
Speaker 1: I think it may be a little out of our
Speaker 1: price range. It was listed at one two hundred dollars
Speaker 1: a night, and interestingly, it does state in the policy
Speaker 1: terms that no parties are to take place and that
Speaker 1: guests must register vehicle number plates to access the front gate.
Speaker 1: So I really wonder how this host felt about the
Speaker 1: fact that Mayor held rather a lavish birthday party there.
Speaker 1: I do think that's quite a common clause, and a
Speaker 1: lot of Airbnb contracts again not to have any parties.
Speaker 1: I've seen a lot around Hen's parties and Bucks parties.
Speaker 1: The thing is, though, one two hundred at night, that's
Speaker 1: not too bad if you split that between eight guests,
Speaker 1: maybeeah tybe it's a go for the thirty third. Now,
Speaker 1: it's pretty evident from the onset that this event was
Speaker 1: all for the gram. So in the garden, she had
Speaker 1: these long tables set up, she had professional menus, lemons
Speaker 1: decorating men. Professionally printed menus has them at a backyard
Speaker 1: birthday party. She also had yellow napkins rich people. She
Speaker 1: had a biscuit shaped like lemons set up on people's plates.
Speaker 1: It was very instagrammable. There was also a life size
Speaker 1: illustration of Mia on an arch shaped media wall with
Speaker 1: thirty written above it, as well as a number of
Speaker 1: large balloon installations, a bar, and a white dessert cart. Now,
Speaker 1: she also had a live illustrator there who drew portraits
Speaker 1: of the guests. And just to be clear, it wasn't
Speaker 1: one of those artists who back in the day drew
Speaker 1: really offensive cartoon drawings where they emphasized everyone's worst speetures.
Speaker 1: It was an illustrator that was super flattering, did these
Speaker 1: fashion styled sketches. I'd hate to think how much money
Speaker 1: that cost.
Speaker 2: So who was there? Because I feel like this would
Speaker 2: be quite a ritzy event.
Speaker 1: Well, there weren't that many notable guests. They're the only
Speaker 1: one I really saw was The Bachelor's Kierra Maguire. Now, no,
Speaker 1: you're wrong, Sovie, because Sophie Kesh was caught out smoking
Speaker 1: a jar in the background on a photo.
Speaker 2: It was it in our group.
Speaker 1: Maybe she was lying low because Survivor was on it.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but she was definitely there. It definitely
Speaker 1: was her with a cigarette. And I always enjoy people
Speaker 1: getting caught out in these situations because it makes me
Speaker 1: think how many photos. Have I been in the background
Speaker 1: of doing something embarrassing smoking a dark gay No, definitely,
Speaker 1: I have never smoked. But you know when you're like
Speaker 1: walking and someone snaps a photo and you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: I can just imagine how horrible that would have been. Now,
Speaker 1: it was pretty grotesque because at one point, I think
Speaker 1: it was. The day after the party, Mia shared a
Speaker 1: table full of the gifts that she received from her friends,
Speaker 1: and I mean, I think there's always a level of
Speaker 1: intrigue of what do people get as presents. However, I
Speaker 1: think when you start seeing a sea of orange Louisvton
Speaker 1: gift bags, I'll find it a bit braggy and cringe
Speaker 1: and I just think, what about the friends who bought
Speaker 1: her something?
Speaker 4: Shit?
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a great gift, a glasshouse candle,
Speaker 1: but I can imagine rocking up with a glasshouse candle.
Speaker 1: When everyone's given her a frigging Louiston bag, you look
Speaker 1: like much stitchback. I would love a glasshouse candle. Maybe
Speaker 1: you'd have to get about ten or probably more than ten.
Speaker 2: I think, you.
Speaker 1: Know, you know, when it was all twenty first season,
Speaker 1: I feel like people don't really buy friend's presents anymore.
Speaker 2: For years. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I suppose to someone's party. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: suppose if someone's putting on a lavish party. Now. Of course,
Speaker 1: Mia enlisted the help of many vendors to make this
Speaker 1: extravagant party a reality, and she used a number of
Speaker 1: small businesses in Melbourne, including an event higher business, a
Speaker 1: custom biscuit business, a local florist, and also a balloon supplier.
Speaker 1: Now it appears one of the supplies is not happy though,
Speaker 1: because under MIA's post about the event, one woman wrote,
Speaker 1: were you planning on thanking the small business who.
Speaker 2: Worked for free at your party? Now? This comment?
Speaker 1: It was lucky I saw it because it was swiftly removed,
Speaker 1: and I do find it really interesting. I'm not sure
Speaker 1: who the supplier in question who allegedly work for free is,
Speaker 1: but I do find it quite interesting because her boyfriend
Speaker 1: is camp painting for the United Party to help out
Speaker 1: small businesses, particularly those in Melbourne who have done it
Speaker 1: tough during lockdown.
Speaker 2: So it does even be odd to me if she
Speaker 2: hasn't paid these people.
Speaker 3: I mean, I shall just rise above it. I shall
Speaker 3: let this thing affect me.
Speaker 5: In forty seven, how is she?
Speaker 1: This week we saw the return of married at first
Speaker 1: sight and it didn't disappoint. Now, Amy, can you tell
Speaker 1: us about the surprising standout cast member.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so social.
Speaker 1: Media has spoken and fans have fallen in love with
Speaker 1: Brent's best man, Levi. Now, just to refresh everyone's memories,
Speaker 1: Brent is the tattooed groom who has a fear of
Speaker 1: feat So he used to work in Dubai running an
Speaker 1: events management business before COVID struck, and then he's been
Speaker 1: forced to come back to Australia and he's been working
Speaker 1: in hospitality. I was so confused during that because I
Speaker 1: thought they were initially saying that he had a foot fetish. No,
Speaker 1: so he actually has a fear of feet, but I
Speaker 1: think so foot phobia. Yeah, so that his partner's feet
Speaker 1: need to look nice, but he doesn't want to touch them.
Speaker 1: He doesn't really want to see them, but he doesn't
Speaker 1: want to have someone that has manky toes.
Speaker 2: Basically i'd be off that lost man.
Speaker 1: So Brent is married to Tamara, who so far has
Speaker 1: been painted as a bit of a villain and I'm
Speaker 1: getting complete Inness vibes from her. So basically everybody loved
Speaker 1: Levi because he stood up for his friend Brent after
Speaker 1: Tomorrow turned her nose up at the thought of him
Speaker 1: working at a nightclub, and this spiked a big debate
Speaker 1: about whether Tomorrow would like to date somebody who works
Speaker 1: in retail. Yeah, it was great because Levi totally gave
Speaker 1: it to her. He inferred that she was elitist because
Speaker 1: she actually admitted that her previous partner did work in
Speaker 1: retail and she was ashamed go out with him. I mean,
Speaker 1: people loved that, but they also love the fact that
Speaker 1: Levi is very good looking and it reminded me of
Speaker 1: John Mayer or something else. So celebrity that he had
Speaker 1: vibes from. Well, he's basically become Jessica Power's hot brother
Speaker 1: of this series. So everyone's been going on about him.
Speaker 1: Everyone's been looking him up on Instagram and he has
Speaker 1: over one hundred and twenty five thousand followers already on Instagram.
Speaker 1: This was before he appeared on Maths and he's also
Speaker 1: signed to IMG Models and has doubled in acts. So
Speaker 1: do we think he actually is genuinely Brent's broad Is
Speaker 1: he just like an actor?
Speaker 2: A render friend.
Speaker 1: Who knows it wouldn't surprise me if he was an
Speaker 1: actor that has been hired by nine.
Speaker 3: Now I'm really.
Speaker 1: Looking forward to twenty five year old Al perkins wedding.
Speaker 1: So he's the brother of influencers Leah and Mimi Perkins,
Speaker 1: who have a combined following a four hundred and twenty
Speaker 1: two thousand. So far, Our's only got about four and
Speaker 1: a half thousand, but his following's obviously going to grow
Speaker 1: after appearing on Maths. So do you guys remember him
Speaker 1: because he's the carpenter who's he said on Monday's episode
Speaker 1: that he was the best looking groom out of all
Speaker 1: of the contests. Guy. Yeah, and he rated himself an
Speaker 1: eleven out of ten. Oh, he was a complete douchebag.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's and I think that it just made
Speaker 1: Maths lose any sort of integrity they may have held
Speaker 1: onto because it was so obvious that he didn't apply
Speaker 1: for the show, that he's not interested in being married.
Speaker 1: I mean he said that he'd never had a girlfriend before.
Speaker 1: Why if you've never had a girlfriend, would you then
Speaker 1: want to jump into a foam marriage.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But the thing is, I feel like everyone knows now,
Speaker 1: just like they do with Love Island, that the show
Speaker 1: is a platform for people. It's not so much about
Speaker 1: actually finding love, and I think that we're all happy
Speaker 1: to buy into it if we get the drama, and
Speaker 1: I think we are going to get the drama with him,
Speaker 1: he kind of gave me Joey essex vibes. I loved
Speaker 1: how he was going on that he was the best
Speaker 1: looking guy, and then they had that blonde guy come
Speaker 1: in who everyone was like, oh my god, this guy
Speaker 1: is good looking.
Speaker 2: Somehow.
Speaker 1: I forced Brandon to watch the first episode with me,
Speaker 1: and I was hilarious because he was just cringing when
Speaker 1: that guy was saying he was the best looking. He's like, God,
Speaker 1: I just don't talk like this. This is not normal.
Speaker 1: My favorite part of the episode was when Hour was
Speaker 1: asked what he was most insecure about, and there was
Speaker 1: his massive flaws and then he's like, my legs, they
Speaker 1: aren't as mustly as I want them to be. Yeah,
Speaker 1: insecurities are probably my legs.
Speaker 2: Is that a good answer?
Speaker 1: It's like, yes, that is a great answer for the
Speaker 1: maths producers. What did you guys overall think of the
Speaker 1: episode so far? I always hate the first episodes because
Speaker 1: I feel like they're really slow to get into it.
Speaker 1: It's like, let's just meet the couples and get into
Speaker 1: the juicy bits, because I always find myself it's almost
Speaker 1: like a marathon to get through the first couple of episodes,
Speaker 1: and then it just puts me off from watching the
Speaker 1: rest of it.
Speaker 2: I just really want to get into the dinner party.
Speaker 1: I love the Honeymoons, though, I feel like it's really
Speaker 1: entertaining because on their wedding day, they're obviously presenting the
Speaker 1: best form of them as a person. You know, they're
Speaker 1: dressed up to the max, and then it was the
Speaker 1: best you're supposed to look on, the best version of you.
Speaker 1: And then as they get to the honeymoon, suddenly the
Speaker 1: cracks start to appear. Like even in the first episode,
Speaker 1: there was that really tall guy with the.
Speaker 3: Beard, and he and his new wife were.
Speaker 1: Really getting along, and then they fast forward to the
Speaker 1: next day and he's trying to feed her fruit out
Speaker 1: of a bowl and you could just tell she got
Speaker 1: the total ick, like, I, you know, I'm a mum.
Speaker 1: I don't need to be fed out of a bottle.
Speaker 1: He was a bit full on, wasn't He was? Like
Speaker 1: I hate when the grooms give this big heartfelt speech
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, you're my partner, and my person
Speaker 1: is like, we know that you wrote this without meeting
Speaker 1: the person. Literally, anyone could be standing in front of
Speaker 1: you and you could be saying these Its a bit of.
Speaker 3: A red flag.
Speaker 2: That guy was quite nice.
Speaker 1: He came too strong, he was until they the next
Speaker 1: episode where he was trying to feed her fruit on
Speaker 1: the bed.
Speaker 3: It was a bit much.
Speaker 1: I always wonder when I'm watching it, do you think
Speaker 1: that the brides choose wedding dresses that they're never gonna
Speaker 1: ever wear at their real wedding. I'm pretty sure you're
Speaker 1: always really out there. I'm pretty sure Martha came out
Speaker 1: and said that they were able to pick between some
Speaker 1: dresses and then they always give them the dress that
Speaker 1: they don't like to try and cause drama. Yeah, there
Speaker 1: are a few interesting hairstyles as well. I do wonder
Speaker 1: how much control they have over what they look like.
Speaker 2: And he's idiots the money, get a pot, my mom, gee,
Speaker 2: I've got money.
Speaker 1: Now it's time for our pit and peaks of the week. Now, Kate,
Speaker 1: can you kick us off with your pit and peek? Well,
Speaker 1: the pit of my week was a very costly visit
Speaker 1: to the emergency vet. So our puppy Sonny ate a
Speaker 1: sock when I was out to dinner. Fortunately Reese was home,
Speaker 1: so he rushed her to the emergency vet. It ended
Speaker 1: up costing around six hundred dollars to give her a
Speaker 1: tablet to throw the sock up. So fortunately as she
Speaker 1: is fine, but it was quite a stressful night because
Speaker 1: it ended up taking quite a few hours and Reese
Speaker 1: was sitting in the car waiting because of COVID and
Speaker 1: someone actually took a chicken into the vet. I would
Speaker 1: not like to know the story behind that. So I'm
Speaker 1: really happy that she's okay. But just before she ran
Speaker 1: out with a sock in her mouth, and I've been
Speaker 1: so careful putting my socks away and it ended up
Speaker 1: that she's now been pinching socks from the washing machine.
Speaker 2: I feel like that's a golden retriever thing. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So the peak of my week is the Bodykind campaign
Speaker 1: that has been released recently on Instagram. So the Butterfly
Speaker 1: Foundation and Instagram have partnered up to present how five
Speaker 1: digital creators use Instagram to be bodykind. So the five
Speaker 1: influencers involved are Olivia Rodgers, Alira Potter, Matt Hay, Kate Walsley,
Speaker 1: and Denny from Style by Danny, and I really enjoyed
Speaker 1: it because they were giving tips on how to say
Speaker 1: bodykind on social media and how you shouldn't believe everything
Speaker 1: you see on Instagram, and I was just thinking it
Speaker 1: would be really helpful for teenagers out there. It is
Speaker 1: rather an interesting move from Instagram after all of those
Speaker 1: negative reports came out about how Instagram is having such
Speaker 1: a negative effect on teenager's body image, so I feel
Speaker 1: like it is quite a strategic move for them to
Speaker 1: partner with the Butterfly Foundation.
Speaker 2: Sophie, what about your pit and peak for the week.
Speaker 1: Well, my pit is a bit of a controversial one
Speaker 1: and I already know how you guys feel about it.
Speaker 1: But it was the treatment of Dani Medvedev in the
Speaker 1: Os Open final, and I have to put it out there.
Speaker 1: I'm a massive Rafa fan. I was so excited for
Speaker 1: Rafa to make it twenty one Grand Slams. The only
Speaker 1: thing I didn't like was how the Australian crowds did
Speaker 1: treat Danny and oh my.
Speaker 2: God, let me finish.
Speaker 1: He has been cast as the complete villain of the
Speaker 1: Grand Slam, and I understand that he has made some
Speaker 1: controversial calls and he's been aggressive to the umpires and
Speaker 1: so forth.
Speaker 2: He has acted like a bit of a bad sport.
Speaker 1: But it made me feel really sad to listen to
Speaker 1: his press conference when he was saying that his experience
Speaker 1: at the Australian Open has made him lose his dream
Speaker 1: of continuing and he doesn't want to continue further than
Speaker 1: thirty And let's be honest to the listeners, because the
Speaker 1: only reason Sophie is sticking up for this guy is
Speaker 1: because he freakishly looks like her partner Brandon.
Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing.
Speaker 1: Mum came to me and she's like, oh, Brandon looks
Speaker 1: a lot like one of the tennis players. And I
Speaker 1: was like, oh, who is it? And then I look
Speaker 1: him up and I'm like, oh, that's not the most
Speaker 1: fluttering he honestly looking so much.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing.
Speaker 1: There is this weird like it's kind of from the
Speaker 1: eyes down that look exactly like Brandon.
Speaker 2: Like Brandon most.
Speaker 1: Of his face, Well, Daddy's losing his hair a little
Speaker 1: bit and Brandon's not, so there's a few slight differences.
Speaker 2: Not to be mean to him, so.
Speaker 1: It's just sticking up for him because she kind of
Speaker 1: thinks of him as being britch. I just felt sorry
Speaker 1: for him because can you imagine making it through to
Speaker 1: the to the final and no one cheering you on.
Speaker 2: They're being zero support for.
Speaker 1: You, because he literally kept like pulling faces at the
Speaker 1: crowd and like to be fair, you know how everyone's saying, oh,
Speaker 1: he was mouthing boring in the background of the speech,
Speaker 1: I think he was mouthing booing because there were still
Speaker 1: people booing him when he was mentioned. I feel like
Speaker 1: our listeners won't have looked into this as deeply as
Speaker 1: you have.
Speaker 3: Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: Sorry for that.
Speaker 1: Now, to finish on a high, my peak of the
Speaker 1: week is an Instagram dog called Jeffrey. Now. Jeffrey is
Speaker 1: an Afghan hound who suffers from a new logical condition
Speaker 1: and he is part of the Black Josh Foundation, which
Speaker 1: rescues and rehabilitates dogs with disabilities. And he is just
Speaker 1: the most joyful, beautiful dog. He has this long, shaggy
Speaker 1: hair and his owners say that he kind of resembles
Speaker 1: an hour because he's got these really big brown eyes.
Speaker 2: And he fancy pony. I love he looks like a
Speaker 2: fancy pony.
Speaker 1: And he gets around in a wheelchair and it's just
Speaker 1: so beautiful because he just he's so.
Speaker 2: Good at running on his wheelchair.
Speaker 1: And I also love the fact that when he sleeps,
Speaker 1: his nose whistles, so it sounds like he's singing.
Speaker 2: And he's definitely one to follow, isn't it.
Speaker 1: He Literally whenever I see him in my Instagram feed,
Speaker 1: he totally brands my Jay. So if anyone else wants
Speaker 1: to follow him, his account is actually at olive dot
Speaker 1: the dot Tiny Dot Doodle, so that's his sister who
Speaker 1: he lives with. And also, if you want to donate,
Speaker 1: you can head to the bee like Josh Foundation.
Speaker 2: They're doing such incredible things. Now, what's your pit?
Speaker 1: And pk Amy, Well, my pit was that Dale and
Speaker 1: I went to a number of auctions on the weekend.
Speaker 1: We missed out by hundreds of thousands of dollars, so
Speaker 1: that was a bit of a down.
Speaker 2: And I feel like that's a bit every week I know.
Speaker 1: And the peak has been discovering reality TV show Olivia
Speaker 1: Meets Her Match. So this show is on, HEYU, And
Speaker 1: I must admit I've already watched all like the first
Speaker 1: series of it, and as much as I as I
Speaker 1: can of the second series because they're still releasing episodes.
Speaker 1: And the show follows Olivia Attwood, who was a fan
Speaker 1: favorite on Love Island, so she's kind of a bit
Speaker 1: like you know Fay from the most recent series of
Speaker 1: UK Very Direct. Well, people say that Faye is a
Speaker 1: cheap version of her. It's actually really horrible because they're
Speaker 1: so similar. So she's very direct. So she found love
Speaker 1: on the show with Chris Hughes. And what's really hilarious
Speaker 1: is they actually had their own reality show come out
Speaker 1: called Chris and Olivia Cracking On, but the show only
Speaker 1: lasted three episodes because they broke up in the middle
Speaker 1: of it. So did they actually air it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it aired.
Speaker 3: I think you can watch it on nine now. It's
Speaker 3: actually quite funny.
Speaker 1: But obviously the reality TV gods have spotted something in
Speaker 1: Olivia because they've commissioned this new show and it follows
Speaker 1: her and her new fiance, Bradley Dak and brad is
Speaker 1: an English footballer, so basically, Olivia's not afraid in saying
Speaker 1: he's basically loaded and he pays for a lot.
Speaker 3: Of their lifestyle.
Speaker 1: She's also an influencer, so she's just going to say
Speaker 1: she'd have a fair bit of money.
Speaker 2: Yeah she does.
Speaker 1: So it's one of those really great shows that you
Speaker 1: just don't have to think about.
Speaker 2: You just sit back and watch.
Speaker 1: And they're planning her wedding and they've just bought he
Speaker 1: they buy a house in it, and they like, you could.
Speaker 2: Just lose yourself in that sort of.
Speaker 1: Tack nothing this Oh it's not even tacky. It's just like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I just love the feel of it.
Speaker 1: So I'd highly recommend if you're looking for a bit
Speaker 1: of a nothing reality show, go and watch.
Speaker 2: That would be great over the weekend.
Speaker 1: I reckon if you're having a quiet weekend or you've
Speaker 1: been isolated, you to COVID, find that and put it on. Well,
Speaker 1: the thing is, at first I was like, wow, Olivia
Speaker 1: is so rude to Brad, and now I actually really
Speaker 1: love her.
Speaker 2: I just think she's hilarious.
Speaker 1: And apparently the media in the UK are touting that
Speaker 1: she's going to be the next Stacy Dooley. And Stacy
Speaker 1: Dowley is of course an investiative journalists who has really
Speaker 1: amazing documentaries. So apparently Olivia's working on this documentary about OnlyFans.
Speaker 1: It looks absolutely epic, so I can't wait to see
Speaker 1: that one too. I'm definitely going to add it to
Speaker 1: my list of shows to catch up on. Well, I
Speaker 1: think that's all we have time for. Thank you so
