1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning. It's a nerve wracking

2
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: time to be in the media. I think we're on

3
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 1: air for three hours here every day, and for an

4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 1: hour in the evening as well. Bits and pieces from

5
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: this morning show be replayed at six o'clock. And at

6
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 1: the moment, people are so ready to take offense at things.

7
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: It makes it difficult to speak freely for three hours,

8
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: doesn't it. You and I are good hearted, good thinking people,

9
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 1: I'd like to think, and yet it's you make the

10
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: slightest slip and people are there to be critical. When

11
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: was the last time we made a slip? Look every

12
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 1: ten seconds, Oh, there's a million of them to go

13
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: on twit again because I want them trolling us again.

14
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: But what I find extraordinary is at the moment it's

15
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: at This all began only a few weeks ago with

16
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: the Black Lives Matter movement in the States and US

17
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: in a trailer looking at how we've treated our indigenous people. Absolutely,

18
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 1: we should be having these discussions. Interesting though, I'm reading

19
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 1: today about all the shows that have retrospectively been canceled

20
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: from streaming services. I just walked past the TV and

21
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: saw shots of the two guys from Little Britain dressed

22
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: as black women. But the story is that that's been

23
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: pulled from the BBC archives and from streaming services. But

24
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: they're showing them on television. To say this has been

25
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:32,839
Speaker 1: pulled defeats the purpose, doesn't it. The TV shows Cops

26
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: has been canceled, Chris Lily's shows and none of them

27
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 1: were He had black face, which ones of summer Heights,

28
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: high angry boys. We can be heroes, we can be heroes.

29
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: He had went Asian faces Wong and Jonah from Tonga. Yeah,

30
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: they've been pulled from Netflix in Australia and New Zealand

31
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: over the depictions of race. You know, the woman who

32
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: wrote Friends has the producer of Friends has apologized that

33
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: she didn't make it more racially diverse. They've pulled from

34
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: streaming services. A scene where Ross went to a tanning

35
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: technician and asked to quote go as dark as him

36
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: that's been pulled. Wasn't on the time in the episode

37
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: when Ross asked the guy that there was like, oh,

38
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: I shouldn't have said that. I'm sure they addressed. So

39
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: they probably addressed how uncomfortable it makes. I think that's

40
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: just life. Well, what about this one though, Gone with

41
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: the wind, Gone with the wind, this has just happened

42
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: in the last twenty four hours, has been pulled from

43
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: streaming services because of its depiction of life in the

44
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: Deep South. But it kind of is. It's archival, and

45
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,679
Speaker 1: we look at it and we think we don't like it,

46
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: so that we should be allowed to look back and say, well,

47
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: that's inappropriate, or look how look how we depicted people.

48
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: Then it's interesting that Hattie McDaniel, who played Mammy in

49
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 1: she won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, the

50
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 1: first African American to do so. To everyone in Oscar

51
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: and she said at the time, I sincerely hope that

52
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: I shall always be a credit to my race and

53
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: the motion picture industry. And here we are saying, well,

54
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: that's shameful. Put it away. And that's all the stuff

55
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 1: too about pulling down the statues. We might talk about

56
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: that later in the show. Is this the best way

57
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: to learn from history is to pretend it never happened?

58
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because if you if you don't learn from

59
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: your past mistakes, you're doomed to repeat them. Surely, Well,

60
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 1: what about this last year in twenty nineteen, it was

61
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: reported that Disney would no longer be including Song of

62
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: the South and its streaming service Disney Plus. This is

63
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: a film from nineteen forty six that has long been

64
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: criticized for its depiction of life on a plantation as idyllic,

65
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: and Disney now includes the warning before the film if

66
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: it ever runs it contains outdated cultural depictions. Well, duh,

67
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: it does a zibitdy doo dah. Is that that's fair?

68
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: Zip bitdy do this this? Yeah? Should we have a

69
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: warning before we play this? Or when you look at it?

70
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 1: He's supposed to be were going to plantation? He's having

71
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: the time of Misulosity's were communities? Just love it. It's

72
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 1: a film from nineteen forty six, and it's an education

73
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: to look at it and to say we would not

74
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: depict it like that anymore. So pulling it from the

75
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: streaming service doesn't answer the question. But everything from our

76
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: past is so easily at hand now. You can go

77
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: on the incidet and you can type in Kingswood Country

78
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: or love thy neighbor, Remember love thy neighbor. They see

79
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: these things would never be made now, but people now,

80
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: of course it is. But people are being made to

81
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: answer for decisions they made thirty years ago where they

82
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: made a film and they're all having to now flood

83
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: Twitter with I'm so sorry I made a film thirty

84
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: years ago that may have offended people. It's tough, it's

85
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 1: tough times. Aaron Mollin has been through this herself this week.

86
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: We're going to be talking to her on our show

87
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 1: this morning. I think for legal purposes we can't go

88
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: into details, but she's had a hell of a week.

89
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: When you're on radio and you're just speaking, it's really tough.

90
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 1: What about that one that features all those Nazis and nuns?

91
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: What film? Sound of music? Well, do tell me how

92
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: it ends? Join the and Amanda in the Morning One.

93
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: At one point seven, tell U
