WEBVTT - Tammy's Controversial Egypt Expedition 

0:00:01.040 --> 0:00:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Hello and welcome to Outspoken. It's your dose of the

0:00:04.120 --> 0:00:07.600
<v Speaker 1>hottest influencer and pop culture news twice a week. I'm

0:00:07.680 --> 0:00:11.200
<v Speaker 1>Kate Torbert and coming up on today's show, Tammy Hembro

0:00:11.360 --> 0:00:14.960
<v Speaker 1>is slammed by animal activists for cruel tourist act. Olivia

0:00:15.040 --> 0:00:18.400
<v Speaker 1>Rodgers opens up about her ex moving on, and Jojo

0:00:18.480 --> 0:00:22.240
<v Speaker 1>Sewer and Chris Hughes make it official. The first Megan

0:00:22.280 --> 0:00:26.560
<v Speaker 1>Markle has released unseen footage of herself twerking before labor.

0:00:26.920 --> 0:00:29.720
<v Speaker 1>The Duchess of Sussex shared a throwback video of her

0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:33.879
<v Speaker 1>and Prince Harry doing the viral baby Mamma dance. I

0:00:34.040 --> 0:00:36.479
<v Speaker 1>first came across this with no sound on it. It

0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:38.800
<v Speaker 1>was very early in the morning, and I actually thought

0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:41.880
<v Speaker 1>that it had been AI generated. I was like, holy fuck,

0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:44.040
<v Speaker 1>what is this. Well, we were just talking about it

0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:46.120
<v Speaker 1>before and you didn't even know about the trend, so

0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:47.960
<v Speaker 1>you were like, what is going on? Because this is

0:00:47.960 --> 0:00:50.040
<v Speaker 1>a big trend on TikTok. A lot of women who

0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 1>are about to give birth share themselves dancing to this song. See.

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:55.040
<v Speaker 1>I thought that they were just being creative and had

0:00:55.040 --> 0:00:57.000
<v Speaker 1>come up with it themselves. I'm like, oh wow, like

0:00:57.080 --> 0:01:00.800
<v Speaker 1>that's interesting. I absolutely loved Harry's cameo. He was playing

0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:02.959
<v Speaker 1>the daggy dad character, wasn't he And you could tell

0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:05.080
<v Speaker 1>that they were both taking the piss out of themselves,

0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:07.640
<v Speaker 1>which is what I quite enjoyed, because I think that

0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:10.200
<v Speaker 1>they've got a lot of flak recently, Megan in particular

0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:14.520
<v Speaker 1>for taking herself too seriously and trying to be too perfect. Well,

0:01:14.560 --> 0:01:16.840
<v Speaker 1>Megan clearly can't do anything right because she has been

0:01:16.840 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 1>absolutely slammed in the press over this video. People are

0:01:19.360 --> 0:01:22.320
<v Speaker 1>saying it's cringe. There's been a lot of negative commentary

0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:26.039
<v Speaker 1>on social media. Someone wrote make it stop, hashtag cringe,

0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:29.040
<v Speaker 1>and another said everything they do to be relatable is

0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:32.319
<v Speaker 1>weirdly not relatable. It's bizarre how they never miss I

0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:34.760
<v Speaker 1>think it's evident to anyone who's listened to this podcast

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:37.319
<v Speaker 1>that I'm a big Meghan Markle fan. But I did

0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:39.920
<v Speaker 1>cringe when I initially saw this video, and I just thought,

0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:42.520
<v Speaker 1>why are they doing this to themselves? Because they have

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:45.680
<v Speaker 1>already faced a lot of criticism for being hypocritical when

0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:48.440
<v Speaker 1>it comes to their children's privacy. I mean, we've seen

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 1>the infamous South Park episode where it's like we want

0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 1>privacy and over the past couple of days, for Lillabette's birthday,

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:57.320
<v Speaker 1>Meghan has shared a number of photos of her that

0:01:57.360 --> 0:02:00.560
<v Speaker 1>we've never seen before. The first couple you couldn't really

0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.080
<v Speaker 1>make out her face. She then shared a very cute

0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:06.279
<v Speaker 1>photo of Harry and Lillabet and then obviously this most

0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:09.200
<v Speaker 1>recent clip. We've got a real behind the scenes look

0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:12.400
<v Speaker 1>into how they were preparing for labor. And whilst I

0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:14.720
<v Speaker 1>think it's great, like I love seeing all these snippets,

0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I just know that people are going to say, well,

0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:19.359
<v Speaker 1>didn't you leave the royal family so your children could

0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:22.000
<v Speaker 1>have privacy, Like why are you sharing all of this? Yeah,

0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:24.840
<v Speaker 1>But to defend them here, they want to be able

0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:27.240
<v Speaker 1>to control the images they put out rather than have

0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 1>the press take paparazzi shots of them. So it's up

0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:33.240
<v Speaker 1>to them if they want to release these photos or not,

0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:35.560
<v Speaker 1>and they obviously felt safe to do so as well

0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:38.399
<v Speaker 1>because they were images of Lillabette when she was a newborn,

0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:40.799
<v Speaker 1>and obviously now that she's four years old, she looks

0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:43.280
<v Speaker 1>very different. I always find it quite funny to see

0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:46.359
<v Speaker 1>the creative ways that celebrities and influencers hired their kids'

0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:50.280
<v Speaker 1>faces so that they can still post these beautiful photos online.

0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 1>They're always very artistic, aren't they. I found the caption

0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:57.400
<v Speaker 1>to this video also quite funny because Megan said, four

0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:00.680
<v Speaker 1>years ago today this also happened. Both of our children

0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.280
<v Speaker 1>were a week past their due date. So when spicy food,

0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 1>all that walking and acupuncture didn't work, there was only

0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:09.079
<v Speaker 1>one thing left to do. And all I could think

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:11.840
<v Speaker 1>about was because there's obviously the old wives tale that

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 1>if you have sex it also brings on labor, and

0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I was like, did they miss that out or are

0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:17.679
<v Speaker 1>they trying to be a bit edgy like, you know,

0:03:17.840 --> 0:03:19.799
<v Speaker 1>lead everyone to thinking, well, did they do that as well?

0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:23.080
<v Speaker 1>They actually have the same thought. Another thing I couldn't

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:26.960
<v Speaker 1>stop thinking about was whether any staff at this hospital

0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:29.799
<v Speaker 1>saw them doing the dance and how many times did

0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:31.839
<v Speaker 1>they do it to get it this good? I really

0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:33.800
<v Speaker 1>want to know where our listeners down on this one.

0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Is it cringe or do you love it? I'm gonna

0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:54.160
<v Speaker 1>put up a question box on an Instagram story. Tammy

0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 1>Hamburg's work trip to Egypt is currently under the spotlight.

0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:01.880
<v Speaker 1>The og fitness influencer has been by animal activists for

0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:05.280
<v Speaker 1>riding a camel as well as offending locals with her attire.

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Before we get into the claims, Kate, can you give

0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:09.800
<v Speaker 1>listeners a bit of a background about the trip. Well,

0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.080
<v Speaker 1>this is a paid gig for Tammy, So she has

0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:15.240
<v Speaker 1>teamed up with a travel company called au Venturer to

0:04:15.360 --> 0:04:18.719
<v Speaker 1>host a group of travelers in Egypt. Now, the company

0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:22.760
<v Speaker 1>offers a range of travel packages to different destinations, alongside

0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:26.680
<v Speaker 1>special trips hosted by influencers and celebrities, and it's not

0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:29.320
<v Speaker 1>the first time Tammy has worked with the travel operator.

0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:33.200
<v Speaker 1>So last year she also hosted a trip to Greece. Now,

0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:35.440
<v Speaker 1>the big selling point of this trip was that you

0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:38.880
<v Speaker 1>were accompanied by Tammy Hembro as a guide alongside a

0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:42.800
<v Speaker 1>trained Egyptologist. We spoke about this trip briefly last week

0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 1>and about how Tammy Hembro seemed to form quite a

0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:47.360
<v Speaker 1>connection with the rest of the women on the trips.

0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:49.640
<v Speaker 1>She actually put up an Instagram story where she tagged

0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:51.800
<v Speaker 1>all of them in the post. So, as you said, Kate,

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.159
<v Speaker 1>the selling point really seems to be that you can

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 1>befriend Tammy in and you can hang out with her.

0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:59.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the trip was even advertised as the Ancient

0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:04.119
<v Speaker 1>exp Edition with Tammy engined, and this wasn't a cheap trip.

0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 1>It costs travelers between six and seven thousand Australian dollars

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:11.440
<v Speaker 1>depending on the room that you stayed in. Now, this week,

0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:15.080
<v Speaker 1>photos and videos of Tammy riding a camel emerged on

0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:19.280
<v Speaker 1>social media. Tammy didn't upload the images herself, but instead

0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:23.520
<v Speaker 1>people spotted her in the background of other travelers photos. Yeah,

0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:26.159
<v Speaker 1>she did share a photo of two camels from the

0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:29.200
<v Speaker 1>ride with the Pyramids in the background, so she did

0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>acknowledge that she saw camels, just not that she actually

0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:35.200
<v Speaker 1>rode one. Now, the camel ride was part of the

0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:38.320
<v Speaker 1>planned itinery and that has been available on the tour

0:05:38.360 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 1>operator's website from the get go. On the website, it

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.560
<v Speaker 1>says ride a camel on the high plateau with panoramic

0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:48.120
<v Speaker 1>views across the dunes. Now, clearly this was a planned

0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>part of the trip. Now. Animal activist Bailey Nelson, who

0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:55.840
<v Speaker 1>runs Instagram account Warrior for Animals, was quick to call

0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Tammy out. He wrote, I am an animal rights campaigner

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:03.039
<v Speaker 1>and am deeply disappointed Tammy hembro road abuse camels. I'm

0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:05.160
<v Speaker 1>glad the post has been removed, but more needs to

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:09.120
<v Speaker 1>be done against exploitation in tourism. He also commented on

0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Tammy's post, I'm politely asking if you can do your

0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:15.080
<v Speaker 1>bit to end the exploitation of animals in tourism. I've

0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:17.440
<v Speaker 1>been supporting you for a long time, even praising you

0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:20.080
<v Speaker 1>for advocating for eating more plant based foods in twenty

0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:23.440
<v Speaker 1>twenty to help the environment and of course, animal welfare.

0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:27.400
<v Speaker 1>The backlash was very swift. Tammy's Egypt post received a

0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:31.279
<v Speaker 1>flurry of angry commenters. One wrote, how about don't torture

0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:34.200
<v Speaker 1>animals and don't write a camel can't believe it's even

0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:37.200
<v Speaker 1>on the program. Another said do you have any idea

0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:40.040
<v Speaker 1>how they're being treated and how exhausted they are for

0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:44.440
<v Speaker 1>moronic tourists exploiting them for no fucking reason. The fallout

0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 1>resulted in the travel company removing the activity from their

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.719
<v Speaker 1>tour so under Tammy's post, they wrote update, we have

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:54.280
<v Speaker 1>taken on feedback and removed the camel writing from our itinerary.

0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.000
<v Speaker 1>They went on to share on their own Instagram account

0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:59.680
<v Speaker 1>a statement that read, we want to acknowledge concerns about

0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:02.760
<v Speaker 1>the camm riding during our Egypt trip. While this activity

0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:06.320
<v Speaker 1>was removed from the official itinerary, it still occurred we're

0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:09.840
<v Speaker 1>actively reviewing what happened and putting into places system to

0:07:10.000 --> 0:07:12.560
<v Speaker 1>ensure this does not happen on future trips. Thank you

0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:15.320
<v Speaker 1>for your feedback and accountability. We learn from this and

0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:18.760
<v Speaker 1>push forward. But I'm so confused. They're saying that they

0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:22.440
<v Speaker 1>removed the activity because it was inappropriate, but then they're

0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:24.240
<v Speaker 1>saying that it still occurred. Are they trying to put

0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:26.160
<v Speaker 1>blame on the tourists for going ahead with it? Well,

0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 1>they're not taking accountability at all. I mean, this is

0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:30.800
<v Speaker 1>their fault. It's a part of their itinerary. It's on

0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:32.880
<v Speaker 1>their bloody website. It's still on their website that this

0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:35.160
<v Speaker 1>was a part of the planned itinerary for the Tammy

0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Hembro trip. Yeah, it doesn't really make much sense now

0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:40.200
<v Speaker 1>when you dig a little bit deeper. The abuse of

0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:43.000
<v Speaker 1>animals at Egyptian tourist spots has been in the spotlight

0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:46.920
<v Speaker 1>recently following a report published by Peter So. The report

0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:50.880
<v Speaker 1>highlighted the cruel conditions working animals as subjected to. It

0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:54.239
<v Speaker 1>found camels and horses used for tourist rides are being beaten,

0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:58.560
<v Speaker 1>hit on the testicles, and denied rest. That is so disturbing.

0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Camels in particular, all so suffer from skin conditions because

0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:05.119
<v Speaker 1>they're not given adequate their treatment. And if that isn't

0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:08.520
<v Speaker 1>bad enough, when animals become injured or too old to work,

0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:11.960
<v Speaker 1>they are left to die behind the pyramids. Peter actually

0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 1>obtained footage of rotting animal corpses as well as six

0:08:15.320 --> 0:08:19.160
<v Speaker 1>injured animals left to staff and according to Peter, police

0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:21.920
<v Speaker 1>and a government officials are complicit in the abuse. So

0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:25.960
<v Speaker 1>they allege that police have been intimidating tourists and forcing

0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:28.920
<v Speaker 1>them to delete vision of abused animals from their phones.

0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm just so thankful to organizations like Peter for actually

0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:34.480
<v Speaker 1>shining a light on this, because I was completely unaware

0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:37.840
<v Speaker 1>of it myself. And despite the Egyptian government pledging to

0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:41.480
<v Speaker 1>end the abuse, nothing has happened so far. They claimed

0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:44.280
<v Speaker 1>that they would launch an animal welfare program by twenty

0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:46.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty four, but that is yet to happen, and Peter

0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:51.120
<v Speaker 1>has continued to lobby the Egyptian government to introduce regulations

0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:54.439
<v Speaker 1>for working animals within the tourism sector. Yeah, and since

0:08:54.440 --> 0:08:57.400
<v Speaker 1>this report was released, a lot of tour operators in

0:08:57.440 --> 0:08:59.959
<v Speaker 1>Egypt have pledged not to offer Cameral rider as part

0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:03.400
<v Speaker 1>of their tours and this was only in March this year,

0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:07.240
<v Speaker 1>so clearly the travel company or venturer that Tammy partner

0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:09.840
<v Speaker 1>with did not. And I've only just done it now

0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:12.560
<v Speaker 1>to save face. What That's the thing. Tammy is copying

0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:14.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot of blame over this incident, but I also

0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:17.880
<v Speaker 1>think it lies with the travel company. They have literally

0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:22.280
<v Speaker 1>built a business of selling influencer run tours, so they're

0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:24.600
<v Speaker 1>the ones who are the experts in the industry. They

0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:27.920
<v Speaker 1>should really be doing proper research into these locations before

0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:30.640
<v Speaker 1>embarking on these sort of trips. I also think some

0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:33.520
<v Speaker 1>responsibility does lie with Tammy as well, though, because if

0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:35.960
<v Speaker 1>you're going to put your face to a tool like this,

0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:38.440
<v Speaker 1>you should do some research and find out what are

0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:41.079
<v Speaker 1>the activities. Are these activities ethical?

0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:41.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:43.160
<v Speaker 1>Well, I'm a bit dubious to how much of a

0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:46.439
<v Speaker 1>travel guide she actually played on this trip, but considering

0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:48.520
<v Speaker 1>she was being paid, she should have done her due

0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:52.160
<v Speaker 1>diligence and done some research into the itinerary. This was

0:09:52.240 --> 0:09:54.560
<v Speaker 1>big news. I mean again, I have to admit it

0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:57.679
<v Speaker 1>wasn't something that I was aware of myself, and I'm

0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:01.280
<v Speaker 1>very thankful for organizations like Peter for actually bringing awareness

0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:03.560
<v Speaker 1>to these issues. But if I was going to put

0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:07.880
<v Speaker 1>my name and face to a tourism activity, I do

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:09.640
<v Speaker 1>a bit of research to make sure that it was

0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:11.840
<v Speaker 1>an ethical one. Well, even if you're traveling to a country,

0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:14.520
<v Speaker 1>normally you will do some research into what's going on there,

0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:16.920
<v Speaker 1>And particularly she has admitted that she has quite an

0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:20.559
<v Speaker 1>interest in Egypt, so and I mean the Egyptian government

0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:23.200
<v Speaker 1>is also to blame here, but as Peter has pointed out,

0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.160
<v Speaker 1>it's tourists who pay to take horse or camera rids

0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:29.960
<v Speaker 1>that are keeping these cruel operations in business. So people

0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:32.760
<v Speaker 1>really need to reflect on what they're doing now. Tammy's

0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Joseph clothing during her trip has also bothered some of

0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:39.079
<v Speaker 1>her followers. She has been called out for not dressing

0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:43.280
<v Speaker 1>appropriately in the very conservative Muslim country. In terms of

0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:46.480
<v Speaker 1>her outfit, she has posted some glamorous photos of her

0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:49.560
<v Speaker 1>posing in front of tourist sites, and in a few

0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:53.200
<v Speaker 1>of them she wore a headscarf alongside long pants or

0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:56.680
<v Speaker 1>a skirt on top, though she did wear some tight

0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:59.480
<v Speaker 1>t shirts and also crop tops showing off her midriff.

0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.920
<v Speaker 1>In another photo, she was wearing a sleeveless dress that

0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>showed a bit of side boob, and there were also

0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:08.040
<v Speaker 1>some images of her at the hotel pool swimming in

0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:08.640
<v Speaker 1>a bikini.

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:09.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:11.480
<v Speaker 1>And in terms of the rules, it's advised that women

0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:14.720
<v Speaker 1>dress conservatively, So while travelers aren't held to the same

0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:18.320
<v Speaker 1>standard as local women, it's recommended that they wear loose

0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:21.120
<v Speaker 1>fitting clothes that cover at least from your shoulder to

0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:24.720
<v Speaker 1>below your knee. It's also recommended to pack long sleeve

0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:27.880
<v Speaker 1>shirts to slip over your outfits for more conservative areas.

0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Is that in the hotel though, because I think she's

0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:31.959
<v Speaker 1>well within her right to wear a bikini in her

0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:34.439
<v Speaker 1>hotel pool. Yeah, so she's totally allowed to wear a

0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:37.240
<v Speaker 1>bikini at her hotel. There are no dramas there. While

0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.079
<v Speaker 1>will people sew up in arms about it, it seems like

0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:41.160
<v Speaker 1>they're just trying to be highly critical. Oh well, they

0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:43.840
<v Speaker 1>clearly are. I mean, in terms of spots that you

0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:46.200
<v Speaker 1>have to follow dress rules, you do have to wear

0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:48.880
<v Speaker 1>head coverings in a mosque, so she did do that.

0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, some of her clothes were probably too tight

0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:55.680
<v Speaker 1>for some of the locals. It was more just like

0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:58.120
<v Speaker 1>I noticed the photos, she would have the headscarf on

0:11:58.200 --> 0:12:00.840
<v Speaker 1>and she'd try and pull like a really sexy I

0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:03.240
<v Speaker 1>reckon it's more the boss that she was doing. Or

0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:05.320
<v Speaker 1>people were like, this just feels a bit wrong. Yeah, Well,

0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:07.360
<v Speaker 1>as we've come to expect on Instagram people who are

0:12:07.440 --> 0:12:10.240
<v Speaker 1>very vocal with their opinions. One person wrote, pretty sure

0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:13.080
<v Speaker 1>this is cultural appropriation because you're not wearing that scarf

0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:16.079
<v Speaker 1>to cover your body. Another said a holiday to Egypt

0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:18.720
<v Speaker 1>or half naked is possibly one of the most tone

0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:22.120
<v Speaker 1>deaf things I've ever seen. Another person added, no hate,

0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:23.960
<v Speaker 1>but I would have thought showing a lot of skin

0:12:24.320 --> 0:12:27.839
<v Speaker 1>in a majority Muslim country would have been considered disrespectful now.

0:12:27.880 --> 0:12:30.199
<v Speaker 1>Tammy responded to that comment, saying, we were told it's

0:12:30.200 --> 0:12:33.600
<v Speaker 1>fine people can wear bikinis of beach slash pools now

0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:36.160
<v Speaker 1>a middle of this controversy, Tammy is back home on

0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:38.520
<v Speaker 1>the Gold Coast with her kids at the moment, and

0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:40.920
<v Speaker 1>she's been sharing a lot about a New Zealand trip

0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:43.440
<v Speaker 1>she's got coming up with them, asking for suggestions and

0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:45.640
<v Speaker 1>explaining that she's going to be taking her kids there

0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:48.800
<v Speaker 1>very soon. Again, there is no mention of her husband that'

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:51.439
<v Speaker 1>z Akassi coming on the trip. What is going on?

0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:54.199
<v Speaker 1>I just want them to put out a statement explaining

0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:56.400
<v Speaker 1>to us that they're not together anymore. Yeah, well, her

0:12:56.480 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 1>music tastes is very telling. She uploaded a video on

0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:02.120
<v Speaker 1>TikTok of her mind to the Taylor Swift banger get

0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:04.839
<v Speaker 1>Away Car. That is my favorite song and a bit

0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:07.000
<v Speaker 1>of a fun fact. When we went to Taylor's concert

0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:09.080
<v Speaker 1>in Melbourne, it was the surprise song. Well, it was

0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.280
<v Speaker 1>one of the surprise songs. She did a medley. I

0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:14.280
<v Speaker 1>was so excited when that started playing. Now, Tammy added

0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:17.800
<v Speaker 1>the caption, this song is currently on replay in my head. Now.

0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.520
<v Speaker 1>I have been trying to keep up with Tammy snapchat

0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:24.320
<v Speaker 1>and the other day she was singing to get Away

0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:26.839
<v Speaker 1>Car in Coles. Now, it disturbs me that Coles that

0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:30.280
<v Speaker 1>started playing Taylor Swift because there's this saying that once

0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:33.080
<v Speaker 1>you start liking the music in the supermarket, it means

0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:36.080
<v Speaker 1>you're old. Anyway, So Tammy was miming to the song

0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:38.280
<v Speaker 1>and she was saying how embarrassed her kids were. Let's

0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:42.800
<v Speaker 1>throw to what she said were then to get awake.

0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:45.760
<v Speaker 1>You guys should see how they're both looking at me

0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:46.600
<v Speaker 1>right now.

0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:48.319
<v Speaker 2>Nice?

0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:49.439
<v Speaker 1>Do you like my singing?

0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:50.040
<v Speaker 2>No?

0:13:52.240 --> 0:13:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Like, do you know there's cameras in here? Because I

0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:58.800
<v Speaker 1>just started dancing. Look if I heard Taylor Swift on it, Coles,

0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I think I'd be singing along time who. I found

0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:03.640
<v Speaker 1>it interesting the bit that she mimed too on TikTok,

0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:05.079
<v Speaker 1>because it was the bit where it's I'm in the

0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:07.400
<v Speaker 1>getaway car. I left you in the motel bar, put

0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:09.040
<v Speaker 1>a money in the bag, and stole the key. That

0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:11.760
<v Speaker 1>was the last time you ever saw me. Pretty telling.

0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Talking about Matt Sakowski, I have been very intrigued by

0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:19.280
<v Speaker 1>his podcast co host Adam macavoy's strategy when it comes

0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:23.840
<v Speaker 1>to sharing about her birth. She uploaded a TikTok and

0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:27.800
<v Speaker 1>Instagram reel yesterday where she said it's happening and she

0:14:28.000 --> 0:14:30.760
<v Speaker 1>was miming to that viral clip that says we're having

0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:34.520
<v Speaker 1>a baby. Fast forward twenty four hours, she has uploaded

0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:38.440
<v Speaker 1>another video where she does this transition from normal clothes

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:41.200
<v Speaker 1>into scrubs and says we are meeting our son in

0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:45.040
<v Speaker 1>thirty minutes, and a lot of people have written in saying, hey,

0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:48.080
<v Speaker 1>just heads up. She actually had her son ten days ago.

0:14:48.280 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 1>This is all just being rolled out now. Yeah. Well,

0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:52.240
<v Speaker 1>she also dropped it she was having a planned c section,

0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:55.720
<v Speaker 1>hence the timing. I'm thinking did I do my c

0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:58.960
<v Speaker 1>section wrong? Because I was waiting around for ten hours

0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:01.080
<v Speaker 1>to go into the operating THEA. Should I have been

0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:03.640
<v Speaker 1>filming a bunch of tiktoks? Look, it was very poor

0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:07.000
<v Speaker 1>form of you to not film tiktoks. But I wonder

0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:09.720
<v Speaker 1>if she held off from announcing her baby news because

0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:11.840
<v Speaker 1>there's been a lot of focus on Steph Klaire Smith's

0:15:11.880 --> 0:15:15.840
<v Speaker 1>new daughter, Billy, which she announced on Friday last week. Yeah,

0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I think she's definitely trying to time it when she'll

0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:22.000
<v Speaker 1>get most impact in saying that we're recording late on

0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:24.160
<v Speaker 1>Thursday afternoon. I bet she does it tonight and this

0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:26.880
<v Speaker 1>will be old news. One.

0:15:27.600 --> 0:15:30.280
<v Speaker 3>The Daily Mail loves to use my name in everything

0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:32.440
<v Speaker 3>they ever write about him, which I guess is just

0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:35.160
<v Speaker 3>part of what I do and my history with him.

0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:38.520
<v Speaker 1>Olivia Rodgers has opened up about Howard feels seeing her

0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:41.840
<v Speaker 1>ex husband Justin mckinn move on and start a family

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:45.560
<v Speaker 1>with someone else. The former Miss Universe contestant was undergoing

0:15:45.560 --> 0:15:47.960
<v Speaker 1>fertility treatment in the months leading up to the couple

0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:51.320
<v Speaker 1>Shocks split in October twenty twenty two, so I was

0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:54.000
<v Speaker 1>really surprised to see Olivia speak about this. Yeah, She's

0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:58.160
<v Speaker 1>usually pretty restrained and i'd say respectful when speaking about Justin.

0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:00.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, over the years, she has dropped a few

0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:03.520
<v Speaker 1>breadcrumbs here and there and alluded to things that have

0:16:03.600 --> 0:16:06.200
<v Speaker 1>gone on, but she's never given a tell all interview

0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:09.240
<v Speaker 1>which explicitly says I broke up with him for this reason.

0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:11.680
<v Speaker 1>It does seem like since it hit the news that

0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:14.600
<v Speaker 1>he's been accused of stealing almost half a million dollars

0:16:14.600 --> 0:16:18.200
<v Speaker 1>from his former employer, that she has been letting a

0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:20.840
<v Speaker 1>few more details fly. Well, yeah, because I think that

0:16:20.960 --> 0:16:24.360
<v Speaker 1>it's given everyone an insight into potentially what she was

0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:26.840
<v Speaker 1>dealing with behind the scenes, so she hasn't really had

0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:29.560
<v Speaker 1>to explain it because everyone's sort of like, oh, I

0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:32.640
<v Speaker 1>get it now, it makes sense now. She is a

0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:34.720
<v Speaker 1>bit of a fiend for Q and a Box, and

0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:38.720
<v Speaker 1>on her podcast this week, she decided to answer listener questions.

0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I would have loved to have known how many of

0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:44.160
<v Speaker 1>these were about Justin. Yeah, all of them always have

0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:46.600
<v Speaker 1>to do with her relationship. I feel like there must

0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:49.160
<v Speaker 1>have just been an overwhelming amount and she was like, Okay,

0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:52.360
<v Speaker 1>I've got to answer it. Because she ended up answering

0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:53.680
<v Speaker 1>this question.

0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:56.440
<v Speaker 2>How does it feel seeing an ex move on and

0:16:56.480 --> 0:16:58.880
<v Speaker 2>start a family when you're not there yet.

0:17:00.160 --> 0:17:02.000
<v Speaker 1>See you're saying that you think she may have been

0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:03.720
<v Speaker 1>pressured into it because a lot of people asked I

0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:05.760
<v Speaker 1>think she knows this is good content. I think she

0:17:05.960 --> 0:17:08.760
<v Speaker 1>knows that questions like this she can tease on social

0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:11.520
<v Speaker 1>media and get people to listen. I also think it's

0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:14.840
<v Speaker 1>her story to share as well. All of these things

0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:17.000
<v Speaker 1>happened to her, and as you said, Kat, I think

0:17:17.040 --> 0:17:19.000
<v Speaker 1>she feels more comfortable now people know a bit more

0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:22.840
<v Speaker 1>about Justin's character and what was going on behind the scenes. Now.

0:17:23.000 --> 0:17:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Back in May, we have spoken about how Justin and

0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:29.400
<v Speaker 1>is on again off again bachelor girlfriend Tani Leeson welcomed

0:17:29.400 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 1>their son Alo, So this is obviously what this question

0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:34.760
<v Speaker 1>is about. And when that news broke, I think a

0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:38.639
<v Speaker 1>lot of us thought about Olivia and how she was feeling,

0:17:38.640 --> 0:17:41.480
<v Speaker 1>because she's always been pretty vocal about wanting to start

0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:44.440
<v Speaker 1>a family, and as you touched on, she was undergoing

0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:47.280
<v Speaker 1>IVF treatment in the lead up to the couple's shock

0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:49.880
<v Speaker 1>separation back in twenty twenty two, and at the time,

0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Olivia said what she was grieving the most about that

0:17:52.680 --> 0:17:56.399
<v Speaker 1>relationship was the loss of the family life she envisioned

0:17:56.520 --> 0:18:00.159
<v Speaker 1>happening so soon now. Before Olivia answered the question, she

0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:02.760
<v Speaker 1>preface that the only reason she's willing to open up

0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:05.760
<v Speaker 1>about it is because she hoped it may help others

0:18:05.760 --> 0:18:09.119
<v Speaker 1>who are navigating a similar situation, and she explained that

0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:12.080
<v Speaker 1>she generally likes to avoid drama and headlines when she

0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:15.080
<v Speaker 1>can and is so sick of being included in daily

0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:18.280
<v Speaker 1>mail articles about Justin. She did say, though, that she

0:18:18.320 --> 0:18:20.800
<v Speaker 1>can understand why they do it because she's had a

0:18:20.880 --> 0:18:23.840
<v Speaker 1>history with him. Well, ultimately, he's only getting attention because

0:18:23.880 --> 0:18:26.160
<v Speaker 1>of her. Yeah, now let's have a listen to how

0:18:26.200 --> 0:18:28.040
<v Speaker 1>she answered this listener question.

0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:35.399
<v Speaker 3>I am happy for my exes moving on. I don't

0:18:35.440 --> 0:18:40.200
<v Speaker 3>feel upset when I hear about it or see anything.

0:18:40.920 --> 0:18:46.919
<v Speaker 3>And genuinely, I haven't felt negative about negatively about that

0:18:47.160 --> 0:18:49.000
<v Speaker 3>at all since we split.

0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:49.600
<v Speaker 2>I think.

0:18:51.520 --> 0:18:53.840
<v Speaker 3>It really helped me to know that I had made

0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:57.080
<v Speaker 3>the right decision, because I never once looked back and

0:18:57.080 --> 0:18:59.840
<v Speaker 3>thought like, oh, that that could have been me, or

0:18:59.880 --> 0:19:02.159
<v Speaker 3>that should be me, Like I'm so confident in this

0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:04.440
<v Speaker 3>decision that I made, Like I don't think that we

0:19:04.440 --> 0:19:07.560
<v Speaker 3>were a good fit for each other, and so I

0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:09.560
<v Speaker 3>don't think that it would have been a good idea

0:19:09.600 --> 0:19:11.359
<v Speaker 3>to have children, and I think it's really good that

0:19:11.440 --> 0:19:15.480
<v Speaker 3>we didn't, so I wish them all the best. But

0:19:15.720 --> 0:19:18.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't feel sad seeing that.

0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:22.719
<v Speaker 1>Very mature response. I wonder if it's got anything to

0:19:22.720 --> 0:19:24.679
<v Speaker 1>do with the fact. And I do hate to speculate,

0:19:24.800 --> 0:19:28.840
<v Speaker 1>but I follow Tiny Lison on Instagram and it appears

0:19:28.880 --> 0:19:31.640
<v Speaker 1>like Justin is nowhere to be seen. He didn't feature

0:19:31.960 --> 0:19:34.959
<v Speaker 1>in the birth announcement, he didn't like it, didn't comment

0:19:35.040 --> 0:19:37.480
<v Speaker 1>on it. Well, I think she must be feeling like

0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:40.359
<v Speaker 1>she dodged an absolute bullet here and that she's so

0:19:40.640 --> 0:19:43.200
<v Speaker 1>relieved that she listened to her gut when she did.

0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:46.119
<v Speaker 1>Olivia did say that while she wasn't upset by this

0:19:46.240 --> 0:19:48.760
<v Speaker 1>recent news, she'd be lying if she didn't admit that

0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:51.800
<v Speaker 1>over the years she has struggled with not knowing when

0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:53.520
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be her turn to have a family

0:19:53.880 --> 0:19:56.360
<v Speaker 1>and feeling like she's behind and not at that life

0:19:56.400 --> 0:19:59.120
<v Speaker 1>stage that she expected to be in. I also really

0:19:59.160 --> 0:20:02.240
<v Speaker 1>loved in this podcast, asked how she shared two excerpts

0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:04.719
<v Speaker 1>from her diary. So this was a diary that she

0:20:04.800 --> 0:20:07.439
<v Speaker 1>was actually keeping in Bali when she was traveling with

0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:10.840
<v Speaker 1>her other ex Morgan Waterhouse, and she said during the

0:20:10.880 --> 0:20:13.280
<v Speaker 1>trip she purchased a diary because she felt like she

0:20:13.359 --> 0:20:16.840
<v Speaker 1>was having a midlife or quarter life crisis and needed

0:20:16.880 --> 0:20:20.159
<v Speaker 1>to write down her thoughts. So this diary entry was

0:20:20.240 --> 0:20:23.480
<v Speaker 1>dated August fourth, twenty twenty three. Let's have a listen

0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:24.440
<v Speaker 1>to what she wrote.

0:20:24.920 --> 0:20:28.639
<v Speaker 3>Mentally, I've felt pretty good most of the time in Bali,

0:20:29.560 --> 0:20:33.640
<v Speaker 3>but I've had my moments, like quite overwhelming moments where

0:20:33.640 --> 0:20:37.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm questioning myself, my job, where I'm at in my life, etc.

0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:41.520
<v Speaker 3>I suppose when I reflect on what's happened over the

0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:44.760
<v Speaker 3>last year, it's to be expected. This time last year,

0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:46.880
<v Speaker 3>I was en route to the USA with my husband

0:20:47.600 --> 0:20:50.959
<v Speaker 3>and we had such a rocky trip back then in

0:20:51.000 --> 0:20:55.840
<v Speaker 3>a year's time, I definitely pictured myself as a mum, married, settled,

0:20:56.640 --> 0:21:00.640
<v Speaker 3>not traveling through Bali for a month old How things

0:21:00.640 --> 0:21:04.800
<v Speaker 3>can change so much. A couple of days later, I wrote,

0:21:06.200 --> 0:21:08.800
<v Speaker 3>I've had a great deal of self doubt lately, and

0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:11.720
<v Speaker 3>this fear of aging, fear of not being where I

0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:15.320
<v Speaker 3>should be out in my life, eg. Not having kids, etc.

0:21:15.840 --> 0:21:17.480
<v Speaker 3>I felt sad when I saw a toddler with his

0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:20.760
<v Speaker 3>young parents by the pool. Today I find myself wondering

0:21:20.800 --> 0:21:24.680
<v Speaker 3>when that will be me. But I also stopped myself

0:21:24.920 --> 0:21:27.080
<v Speaker 3>and remind myself that what I do have right now

0:21:27.160 --> 0:21:31.040
<v Speaker 3>is pretty amazing. Being grateful helps, and I'm focusing on that.

0:21:31.600 --> 0:21:33.520
<v Speaker 1>I think it's quite clear that Olivia did a lot

0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:37.320
<v Speaker 1>of soul searching on this trip. Me being a massive snoop,

0:21:37.359 --> 0:21:39.440
<v Speaker 1>I had to go back and look at her TikTok

0:21:39.520 --> 0:21:42.359
<v Speaker 1>to see exactly who she was with on the trip,

0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:44.439
<v Speaker 1>what she was doing, because while she was there with

0:21:44.520 --> 0:21:47.200
<v Speaker 1>Morgan Waterhouse, she actually spent the first couple of weeks

0:21:47.200 --> 0:21:48.639
<v Speaker 1>with her mum, and then she did a bit of

0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:51.840
<v Speaker 1>solo traveling, and it's quite clear that she had a

0:21:51.880 --> 0:21:55.280
<v Speaker 1>lot of time to be by herself and reflect. And

0:21:55.359 --> 0:21:58.200
<v Speaker 1>I potentially think she did a lot of reflection on

0:21:58.280 --> 0:22:01.800
<v Speaker 1>her relationship with Morgan, because when I looked back at

0:22:01.800 --> 0:22:04.960
<v Speaker 1>the dates, that is around the time that he mysteriously

0:22:05.000 --> 0:22:07.439
<v Speaker 1>disappeared from her feed, like right after the trip. So

0:22:07.480 --> 0:22:09.400
<v Speaker 1>they went to Balley, looked like they had a great time,

0:22:09.480 --> 0:22:11.320
<v Speaker 1>and then all of a sudden, everyone's like, where is it?

0:22:11.359 --> 0:22:13.200
<v Speaker 1>He did a bit of a mat Zakowski and disappeared.

0:22:13.560 --> 0:22:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I was in Balley at a similar time on my honeymoon,

0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:19.959
<v Speaker 1>and I kept seeing all her extremely glamorous photos of

0:22:20.000 --> 0:22:22.879
<v Speaker 1>them doing their little photo shoots, and I mean, I

0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:24.840
<v Speaker 1>couldn't even get my husband to take one photo of

0:22:24.880 --> 0:22:28.480
<v Speaker 1>me on the trip. And it's so funny because they

0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:31.600
<v Speaker 1>looked so glamorous and so in love and everything was perfect,

0:22:31.680 --> 0:22:33.560
<v Speaker 1>but clearly it wasn't. And I think this is really

0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:36.280
<v Speaker 1>great for Olivia to share what was actually going on

0:22:36.320 --> 0:22:38.240
<v Speaker 1>behind the scenes. All I could think, too, was it

0:22:38.280 --> 0:22:40.359
<v Speaker 1>was very trusting of her to write down these deep

0:22:40.520 --> 0:22:44.280
<v Speaker 1>personal thoughts when she was on vacation with someone relatively new.

0:22:44.440 --> 0:22:46.480
<v Speaker 1>I would be worried that they would go and read it.

0:22:46.600 --> 0:22:48.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, maybe everyone isn't nosy like me and would

0:22:48.680 --> 0:22:52.320
<v Speaker 1>invade someone's privacy like that, But you know, it's pretty

0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:54.879
<v Speaker 1>brave to leave that lying around. If she did, I

0:22:54.880 --> 0:22:57.639
<v Speaker 1>wonder if it was under lock and key. She also

0:22:57.880 --> 0:23:00.760
<v Speaker 1>had the foresight to say that the reason she probably

0:23:00.800 --> 0:23:03.560
<v Speaker 1>hasn't struggled with this news as much is because she's

0:23:03.600 --> 0:23:07.119
<v Speaker 1>in a really great relationship now, and she also feels

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:09.880
<v Speaker 1>confident that she's frozen her eggs. So she did really

0:23:09.920 --> 0:23:12.560
<v Speaker 1>gush about her new boyfriend, Hugo. She said that she

0:23:12.720 --> 0:23:15.679
<v Speaker 1>genuinely thinks she's found the right person for her to

0:23:15.720 --> 0:23:18.400
<v Speaker 1>have a family with. So this has got me really excited.

0:23:18.520 --> 0:23:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I feel like we are on engagement watch with this couple,

0:23:21.600 --> 0:23:24.640
<v Speaker 1>and I, for one, I'm ready for another epic Olivia

0:23:24.720 --> 0:23:27.000
<v Speaker 1>Rodgers wedding. Hopefully she unblocks us by them, because I'd

0:23:27.040 --> 0:23:30.200
<v Speaker 1>like to see the phone please, Olivia. We're big fans.

0:23:31.560 --> 0:23:43.040
<v Speaker 2>Dream Case podcast. Right, yeah, yeah, you answer the question? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, what's.

0:23:42.359 --> 0:23:45.680
<v Speaker 1>Up with that? After weeks of speculation and a hell

0:23:45.720 --> 0:23:48.640
<v Speaker 1>of a lot of soft launching, Jojo Siwa and Chris

0:23:48.720 --> 0:23:52.640
<v Speaker 1>Hughes have confirmed they are together. The pair controversially met

0:23:52.640 --> 0:23:55.640
<v Speaker 1>on Celebrity Big Brother UK when the former dance mum

0:23:55.720 --> 0:23:58.760
<v Speaker 1>Start was in a relationship with Ossie content creator Kath

0:23:58.960 --> 0:24:00.919
<v Speaker 1>Ebbs and so for if those are not across it,

0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:03.199
<v Speaker 1>can you bring us quickly up to speed? Well. As

0:24:03.240 --> 0:24:05.560
<v Speaker 1>soon as Jojo and Chris met in the UK Big

0:24:05.560 --> 0:24:08.320
<v Speaker 1>Brother House, it was clear that they had an instant connection,

0:24:08.920 --> 0:24:12.239
<v Speaker 1>and while they did describe their bond as platonic, there

0:24:12.240 --> 0:24:16.200
<v Speaker 1>were several incidents that raised concern not only amongst viewers

0:24:16.200 --> 0:24:19.560
<v Speaker 1>but also their housemates. So in the house they were

0:24:19.680 --> 0:24:23.280
<v Speaker 1>very physically affectionate. There were a lot of cuddles in bed,

0:24:23.560 --> 0:24:26.920
<v Speaker 1>massages and head scratches, and this was very early on.

0:24:27.440 --> 0:24:29.159
<v Speaker 1>There was also a bit of a weird incident in

0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:31.640
<v Speaker 1>the hot tub when Jojo was sitting on Chris's lap

0:24:31.680 --> 0:24:34.240
<v Speaker 1>and they were accused of sharing a forehead kiss. I

0:24:34.280 --> 0:24:36.639
<v Speaker 1>love how primary school he is they kissed in the forehead.

0:24:37.200 --> 0:24:39.880
<v Speaker 1>Another big moment for Jojo on the show was when

0:24:39.920 --> 0:24:43.920
<v Speaker 1>she declared she'd come to this realization about her sexuality,

0:24:44.080 --> 0:24:46.760
<v Speaker 1>and she said she's always told herself she's a lesbian,

0:24:46.800 --> 0:24:49.320
<v Speaker 1>but being in the house made her realize that she's

0:24:49.400 --> 0:24:52.479
<v Speaker 1>not a lesbian, she's queer. This was a pretty bold

0:24:52.640 --> 0:24:56.080
<v Speaker 1>admission to make when your partner is outside watching on

0:24:56.119 --> 0:24:59.720
<v Speaker 1>at home, because it was quite clear that this revelation

0:24:59.840 --> 0:25:03.360
<v Speaker 1>ca because of her growing feelings for Chris. Yeah, and

0:25:03.520 --> 0:25:07.159
<v Speaker 1>despite all of these online theories and chat about Chris

0:25:07.200 --> 0:25:10.520
<v Speaker 1>and Jojo being more than friends, Kath flew over to

0:25:10.560 --> 0:25:14.560
<v Speaker 1>the UK to be by JoJo's side in the finale, However,

0:25:15.200 --> 0:25:18.560
<v Speaker 1>Jojo dumped Kath at the rap party just hours later.

0:25:19.440 --> 0:25:21.720
<v Speaker 1>After the show, Jojo and Chris appeared on a couple

0:25:21.720 --> 0:25:24.400
<v Speaker 1>of talk shows together, and they both continued to toe

0:25:24.480 --> 0:25:26.520
<v Speaker 1>this line that nothing was going on and that their

0:25:26.560 --> 0:25:30.200
<v Speaker 1>relationship was platonic, and they kept saying that they had

0:25:30.200 --> 0:25:33.439
<v Speaker 1>a soulmate friendship, which was a bit wanky. I was like,

0:25:33.560 --> 0:25:35.480
<v Speaker 1>what do you mean, you just clearly have the hots

0:25:35.480 --> 0:25:37.960
<v Speaker 1>for each other. Oh, it just annoyed me because it's like,

0:25:38.040 --> 0:25:40.879
<v Speaker 1>you clearly dumped your partner to be with this guy.

0:25:41.080 --> 0:25:43.919
<v Speaker 1>At least be honest about it. Yeah, and all this

0:25:44.080 --> 0:25:47.840
<v Speaker 1>breadcrumbing of their relationship, like JoJo's been posting all these

0:25:47.840 --> 0:25:51.120
<v Speaker 1>photos of her face timing Chris and suddenly she likes

0:25:51.160 --> 0:25:54.240
<v Speaker 1>drinking English tea and her new favorite meal is spaghetti

0:25:54.280 --> 0:25:56.680
<v Speaker 1>who which is what Chris like? And also the way

0:25:56.720 --> 0:25:59.960
<v Speaker 1>she keeps calling him Christopher, sweet Christopher. Is it because

0:26:00.800 --> 0:26:03.120
<v Speaker 1>it's like I know him better because I call him

0:26:03.119 --> 0:26:05.800
<v Speaker 1>his real name? Or is it because he's from the

0:26:05.960 --> 0:26:08.360
<v Speaker 1>UK and she thinks it kind of sounds more sophisticated.

0:26:08.440 --> 0:26:10.800
<v Speaker 1>I think it probably started off as a flirtatious thing

0:26:10.840 --> 0:26:13.960
<v Speaker 1>where you can you know, oh, Christopher. I've actually become

0:26:13.960 --> 0:26:16.040
<v Speaker 1>a quite a big fan of Jojo. I didn't really

0:26:16.119 --> 0:26:18.520
<v Speaker 1>like her before, but I like Joel so Joel is

0:26:18.560 --> 0:26:21.760
<v Speaker 1>her UK personality. She's a bit more erst and down

0:26:21.760 --> 0:26:24.399
<v Speaker 1>to Earth And I don't know why, but I am

0:26:24.400 --> 0:26:27.240
<v Speaker 1>actually shipping this relationship, even though I feel so sorry

0:26:27.280 --> 0:26:29.680
<v Speaker 1>for Calf. I think it's because you didn't watch Love

0:26:29.680 --> 0:26:33.080
<v Speaker 1>Island and you don't know who Chris Hughes is. Not

0:26:33.160 --> 0:26:36.160
<v Speaker 1>that he was unlikable on the show. I really liked him,

0:26:36.160 --> 0:26:37.639
<v Speaker 1>but he sounds like a bit of a cloud chaser

0:26:37.680 --> 0:26:40.520
<v Speaker 1>if anything. Yeah, he's a cloud chaser. I mean he's

0:26:40.560 --> 0:26:42.760
<v Speaker 1>been with that girl from Little Mix, what was a

0:26:42.800 --> 0:26:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Jesse from Little Mix? Like he's been Olivia Utwood. Yeah,

0:26:45.880 --> 0:26:48.040
<v Speaker 1>he's been with a lot of high profile women and

0:26:48.160 --> 0:26:50.760
<v Speaker 1>Jojo sewat is not his typical type. I have seen

0:26:51.119 --> 0:26:54.320
<v Speaker 1>people on TikTok saying, can you imagine if Jojo Sewah

0:26:54.400 --> 0:26:57.320
<v Speaker 1>popped up on his series of Love Island, he would

0:26:57.359 --> 0:26:59.719
<v Speaker 1>be he was a child then yeah, but if she was,

0:26:59.760 --> 0:27:02.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, the same mate, would he be taking it

0:27:02.119 --> 0:27:04.680
<v Speaker 1>to the fire pit to have a chat? No, he wouldn't.

0:27:05.720 --> 0:27:07.520
<v Speaker 1>We don't know. I mean they might have clicked on

0:27:07.560 --> 0:27:10.879
<v Speaker 1>this personality level that we're not deep enough to get. Oh,

0:27:11.359 --> 0:27:13.160
<v Speaker 1>we don't think Chris Hughes is interested in the amount

0:27:13.160 --> 0:27:15.960
<v Speaker 1>of followers that she has. Now he's an international name. Well,

0:27:16.280 --> 0:27:18.879
<v Speaker 1>last week they looked like they were getting very cozy

0:27:18.920 --> 0:27:21.800
<v Speaker 1>because Jojo returned to the UK to perform a series

0:27:21.840 --> 0:27:24.960
<v Speaker 1>of shows there and they both uploaded a ton of

0:27:25.000 --> 0:27:28.879
<v Speaker 1>photos with their arms wrapped around each other, and Jojo

0:27:28.960 --> 0:27:31.640
<v Speaker 1>shared that Chris got her all of these little birthday presents.

0:27:32.040 --> 0:27:34.840
<v Speaker 1>And Jojo took it a step further when she performed

0:27:34.840 --> 0:27:37.600
<v Speaker 1>the cover of Betty Davis Eyes for her UK fans

0:27:37.640 --> 0:27:41.200
<v Speaker 1>and she changed the lyrics to say, Chris Hughes eyes.

0:27:41.280 --> 0:27:44.919
<v Speaker 1>We actually spoke about this on the Subs episode last week. Again,

0:27:45.480 --> 0:27:48.760
<v Speaker 1>it's also performative and intention seeking. Yeah, a lot of

0:27:48.800 --> 0:27:51.359
<v Speaker 1>people are thinking that this is a publicity's done. And

0:27:51.840 --> 0:27:55.800
<v Speaker 1>on Sunday, Chris all but confirmed their relationship with a

0:27:55.840 --> 0:27:58.680
<v Speaker 1>photo that he shared to Snapchat. So it was kind

0:27:58.720 --> 0:28:02.800
<v Speaker 1>of this seedy looking blurred photo where Jojo was lying

0:28:02.880 --> 0:28:06.400
<v Speaker 1>across his chest in bed and he was shirtless and

0:28:06.480 --> 0:28:09.000
<v Speaker 1>she was sort of pretending to be asleep, which everyone

0:28:09.040 --> 0:28:11.600
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh my god, and he captured the photo

0:28:11.760 --> 0:28:12.800
<v Speaker 1>sleeping beauty.

0:28:13.160 --> 0:28:13.440
<v Speaker 2>God.

0:28:13.440 --> 0:28:15.920
<v Speaker 1>It's just so attention seeking, isn't it. Did you see

0:28:15.920 --> 0:28:19.040
<v Speaker 1>people say it looked like a newborn shoe, maybe because

0:28:19.080 --> 0:28:21.600
<v Speaker 1>of the age gap, but a few days later, during

0:28:21.600 --> 0:28:25.040
<v Speaker 1>an interview with the Guardian, Jojo finally confirmed the news.

0:28:25.080 --> 0:28:27.800
<v Speaker 1>So she was straight up asked by a journo whether

0:28:27.840 --> 0:28:32.000
<v Speaker 1>the relationship was romantic or platonic, and after what the

0:28:32.080 --> 0:28:35.240
<v Speaker 1>journalist said was a full twenty seconds of silent grinning,

0:28:35.600 --> 0:28:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Jojo said she is currently dating Chris, who she refers

0:28:38.640 --> 0:28:42.400
<v Speaker 1>to as sweet Christopher. She said, it's not platonic anymore,

0:28:42.440 --> 0:28:45.560
<v Speaker 1>and it's been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and

0:28:45.600 --> 0:28:48.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm absolutely head over heels for him, and he's the

0:28:48.320 --> 0:28:51.040
<v Speaker 1>same way. A bit awkward to be like, Oh, he's

0:28:51.080 --> 0:28:53.600
<v Speaker 1>head over heels for me. I think she's saying that though,

0:28:53.640 --> 0:28:56.000
<v Speaker 1>because a lot of the commentary has been that he

0:28:56.040 --> 0:28:59.440
<v Speaker 1>looks like he's trapped and he's fucked up. Yeah, I've

0:28:59.440 --> 0:29:03.320
<v Speaker 1>seen those online now. When asked if this was all

0:29:03.360 --> 0:29:06.719
<v Speaker 1>for press attention, Jojo said, clearly, you've never been around us.

0:29:06.800 --> 0:29:09.200
<v Speaker 1>I won't speak for him, but for me personally, the

0:29:09.280 --> 0:29:12.200
<v Speaker 1>happiness in my life just radiates off me right now.

0:29:12.480 --> 0:29:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Literally yesterday I was massaging my cheeks. I've never been

0:29:15.480 --> 0:29:17.760
<v Speaker 1>in pain from smiling so much. Kay, I want to know,

0:29:17.840 --> 0:29:20.240
<v Speaker 1>have you ever been in a relationship with your cheeks

0:29:20.280 --> 0:29:22.959
<v Speaker 1>was so sore from smiling. I remember when I started

0:29:23.040 --> 0:29:26.719
<v Speaker 1>dating Reese that I was pretty happy with myself because

0:29:27.120 --> 0:29:29.640
<v Speaker 1>we started with a platonic friendship as well. So maybe

0:29:29.640 --> 0:29:33.200
<v Speaker 1>it's when you've known the person and finally you get

0:29:33.240 --> 0:29:35.640
<v Speaker 1>to be with them. Well, so you actually were having

0:29:35.640 --> 0:29:38.080
<v Speaker 1>to massage your cheeks because you were smiling that much. No,

0:29:38.120 --> 0:29:40.080
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't, but I was genuinely pretty thrill with right.

0:29:40.120 --> 0:29:40.200
<v Speaker 2>No.

0:29:40.280 --> 0:29:42.720
<v Speaker 1>But I'm just saying, like the performance of it all,

0:29:42.760 --> 0:29:45.760
<v Speaker 1>because I've actually seen her when she was performing on stage,

0:29:45.800 --> 0:29:47.120
<v Speaker 1>and I think it was when she did the whole

0:29:47.200 --> 0:29:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Chris Hughes eyes thing. There's a clip of her actually

0:29:50.240 --> 0:29:52.760
<v Speaker 1>massaging her cheeks because Chris was in the crowd and

0:29:52.840 --> 0:29:55.320
<v Speaker 1>just saying, I just so happy. I don't know, to me,

0:29:55.440 --> 0:29:57.680
<v Speaker 1>is that a bit much? This is how girls of

0:29:57.720 --> 0:30:00.720
<v Speaker 1>this age act. They get head over heels rush into

0:30:00.720 --> 0:30:03.360
<v Speaker 1>this relationship. I mean, I don't know how logistically it's

0:30:03.360 --> 0:30:06.720
<v Speaker 1>going to work. He's a thirty two year old English guy. Well,

0:30:06.920 --> 0:30:09.400
<v Speaker 1>there's been a lot of discussion about this age gap

0:30:09.440 --> 0:30:12.880
<v Speaker 1>between them, and also debate about how much Chris knew

0:30:13.000 --> 0:30:16.320
<v Speaker 1>about JoJo's music career before they met, because a lot

0:30:16.360 --> 0:30:19.320
<v Speaker 1>of people have called him opportunistic, but others have pointed

0:30:19.360 --> 0:30:22.360
<v Speaker 1>out that because he doesn't really fit into her gen

0:30:22.480 --> 0:30:26.440
<v Speaker 1>Z demographic, maybe he was unaware of her public persona

0:30:26.480 --> 0:30:28.640
<v Speaker 1>because I've kept seeing all these dick dogs or people

0:30:28.680 --> 0:30:30.640
<v Speaker 1>are like, the second he gets out of the house

0:30:30.680 --> 0:30:33.120
<v Speaker 1>and sees the Karma clip, He's like, holy fuck all.

0:30:33.600 --> 0:30:36.200
<v Speaker 1>I hardly think he was being strategic about it. She

0:30:36.360 --> 0:30:39.240
<v Speaker 1>literally entered the house as a lesbian with a partner.

0:30:39.400 --> 0:30:41.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you'd have to have pretty big tickets on

0:30:41.160 --> 0:30:43.960
<v Speaker 1>yourself to think, oh yeah, oh winner. Over that being said,

0:30:44.280 --> 0:30:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Kath dropped a pretty interesting insight on their podcast. They

0:30:48.520 --> 0:30:52.840
<v Speaker 1>were interviewed by Claire Stevens, and they revealed that before

0:30:52.960 --> 0:30:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Jojo went into the house, they actually mentioned the whole

0:30:56.920 --> 0:31:01.200
<v Speaker 1>Drew and Tully scenario which Tully entered the house in

0:31:01.240 --> 0:31:06.080
<v Speaker 1>a relationship with a woman and then obviously she cheated Withdrew,

0:31:06.400 --> 0:31:08.880
<v Speaker 1>and the fact that Jojo actually knew about it. I

0:31:08.920 --> 0:31:12.440
<v Speaker 1>was like, isn't that bizarre? It is bizarre. But do

0:31:12.480 --> 0:31:16.880
<v Speaker 1>I think that she purposely carried it out to get attention? No? No,

0:31:16.960 --> 0:31:20.080
<v Speaker 1>I think she genuinely really likes Chris. I think that

0:31:20.160 --> 0:31:23.600
<v Speaker 1>there's a genuine connection there. Well, JoJo's had a pretty

0:31:23.640 --> 0:31:25.600
<v Speaker 1>good test for Chris to see if he's in this

0:31:25.640 --> 0:31:27.880
<v Speaker 1>for the long haul and whether he is getting cringed

0:31:27.920 --> 0:31:30.560
<v Speaker 1>out by some of her behavior, because she decided to

0:31:30.600 --> 0:31:33.400
<v Speaker 1>show him a viral clip that has been haunting her

0:31:33.440 --> 0:31:36.320
<v Speaker 1>for over a year now. So in the clip, Jojo

0:31:36.440 --> 0:31:39.600
<v Speaker 1>is being interviewed on the red carpet and she's wearing

0:31:39.800 --> 0:31:42.880
<v Speaker 1>face paint, which resembles what the guys from Kiss were.

0:31:43.640 --> 0:31:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Let's have a listen to what she said in the

0:31:46.120 --> 0:31:50.280
<v Speaker 1>interview real yes to my podcast.

0:31:50.520 --> 0:31:53.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh, I mean, honestly, let's my think, not

0:31:53.680 --> 0:31:54.360
<v Speaker 2>one of my axes.

0:31:54.960 --> 0:31:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I actually had to watch this a few times to

0:31:56.640 --> 0:31:59.400
<v Speaker 1>get it because it wasn't obvious to me. I had

0:31:59.400 --> 0:32:03.880
<v Speaker 1>to read the comments, and basically people were ripping into

0:32:03.880 --> 0:32:07.600
<v Speaker 1>her because she thought what she responded was really funny

0:32:07.640 --> 0:32:10.520
<v Speaker 1>and kind of stepped back to be like, oh wow,

0:32:10.720 --> 0:32:12.440
<v Speaker 1>well I think, And it wasn't well I think because

0:32:12.440 --> 0:32:16.080
<v Speaker 1>she said it so enthusiastically dream Guests and my podcast,

0:32:16.680 --> 0:32:18.240
<v Speaker 1>and I think it was also done to what she

0:32:18.440 --> 0:32:21.000
<v Speaker 1>was wearing. Now, someone else who was confused by this

0:32:21.040 --> 0:32:23.760
<v Speaker 1>clip was Chris Hughes. Let's have a listen to what

0:32:23.800 --> 0:32:24.600
<v Speaker 1>he said about it.

0:32:26.680 --> 0:32:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I don't get it. I don't get it. Perfect

0:32:38.000 --> 0:32:43.440
<v Speaker 2>dream case on my podcast, right, yeah, yeah you answered

0:32:43.440 --> 0:32:50.920
<v Speaker 2>the question. Yeah, yeah, yeah, what's up with that? You know,

0:32:51.120 --> 0:32:53.000
<v Speaker 2>just my voice and what I looked like. People just

0:32:53.040 --> 0:32:56.920
<v Speaker 2>love to pick on me though. Yeah, when you get

0:32:57.040 --> 0:32:59.479
<v Speaker 2>like when you get when you get into something, your

0:32:59.560 --> 0:33:04.880
<v Speaker 2>voice rasty, can you try to say dream guess my

0:33:04.920 --> 0:33:07.880
<v Speaker 2>podcast the way that I did in that video? Dream

0:33:08.080 --> 0:33:19.680
<v Speaker 2>yess on my podcast? Yeah? What do you think of that?

0:33:20.080 --> 0:33:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Is it Halloween thing?

0:33:22.160 --> 0:33:29.400
<v Speaker 2>No thing? No? That was no nice. I like it,

0:33:29.960 --> 0:33:33.840
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, Bob. It's different, thank you. It was That's

0:33:33.880 --> 0:33:36.000
<v Speaker 2>what I looked like in the Karma music video. So

0:33:36.160 --> 0:33:40.960
<v Speaker 2>oh yes, yeah, you're just doing that. I like it

0:33:41.000 --> 0:33:46.520
<v Speaker 2>on your chin, it goes from your chin through Yeah,

0:33:47.240 --> 0:33:50.360
<v Speaker 2>dream yess on my podcast. Oh god here.

0:33:51.960 --> 0:33:52.360
<v Speaker 1>Issues.

0:33:53.040 --> 0:33:55.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah I didn't either, but the world had a lot

0:33:55.640 --> 0:33:58.320
<v Speaker 2>of fun with it. Yeah.

0:33:58.560 --> 0:34:01.520
<v Speaker 1>He sounded so cute, like I can see why she's

0:34:01.640 --> 0:34:05.160
<v Speaker 1>into him. Like his response was very darling. Yeah, I

0:34:05.200 --> 0:34:07.920
<v Speaker 1>feel like he answered it so diplomatically. That shows someone

0:34:07.960 --> 0:34:10.440
<v Speaker 1>who is in their thirties, he's tuned a lot of

0:34:10.440 --> 0:34:12.880
<v Speaker 1>girls before. Well, he would give you the ick though,

0:34:12.880 --> 0:34:15.000
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't it. Oh? I love how he's like, I like

0:34:15.080 --> 0:34:17.360
<v Speaker 1>that little thing on your chin, like that looks good?

0:34:18.800 --> 0:34:21.560
<v Speaker 1>What the fuck is this? Well? I got myself here.

0:34:22.360 --> 0:34:25.480
<v Speaker 1>I've just been thinking about poor Cath in all of

0:34:25.520 --> 0:34:29.200
<v Speaker 1>this and how they're faring, because in their recent podcast,

0:34:29.840 --> 0:34:33.000
<v Speaker 1>it was recorded when they still believe that this relationship

0:34:33.040 --> 0:34:36.719
<v Speaker 1>was platonic and nothing was going on. This week, Kath

0:34:37.080 --> 0:34:40.080
<v Speaker 1>did share a TikTok of them dancing with text over

0:34:40.120 --> 0:34:42.640
<v Speaker 1>the top that said shaking my ass instead of crashing

0:34:42.640 --> 0:34:45.720
<v Speaker 1>the fuck out, and then caption the post happy Pride

0:34:45.840 --> 0:34:49.040
<v Speaker 1>month Now. Followers were quick to assume that Kath was

0:34:49.080 --> 0:34:52.279
<v Speaker 1>taking a swipe at Jojo, so one user wrote, or

0:34:52.320 --> 0:34:56.000
<v Speaker 1>perhaps move on she has, to which Kath responded, I

0:34:56.000 --> 0:34:59.080
<v Speaker 1>think it's time you move on. I have. Another said

0:34:59.120 --> 0:35:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm happy for Joe, to which Cath said same. This

0:35:01.640 --> 0:35:04.040
<v Speaker 1>has nothing to do with her wishing them the best.

0:35:04.360 --> 0:35:07.200
<v Speaker 1>This is very layered and I agree with what Kath

0:35:07.320 --> 0:35:11.000
<v Speaker 1>said in their podcast. If their relationship with Jojo was

0:35:11.000 --> 0:35:14.840
<v Speaker 1>a heterosexual one, then Jojo would have been the villain

0:35:15.680 --> 0:35:18.520
<v Speaker 1>and Chris would have been painted as a home wrecker. Yeah,

0:35:18.640 --> 0:35:23.120
<v Speaker 1>Whereas because Jojo was in a lesbian relationship. People are like, oh, well,

0:35:23.760 --> 0:35:25.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, she's seen the light. She wants a man.

0:35:26.239 --> 0:35:28.880
<v Speaker 1>That's exactly what people are viewing this as, which invent

0:35:28.920 --> 0:35:33.480
<v Speaker 1>Tree has been repulsive online, Like I don't even want

0:35:33.480 --> 0:35:35.440
<v Speaker 1>to repeat some of the things that have been said,

0:35:35.480 --> 0:35:39.200
<v Speaker 1>but it's oh, you know, she's had a factory reset now,

0:35:39.360 --> 0:35:41.560
<v Speaker 1>Like it's absolutely appalling, and I can't believe in this

0:35:41.640 --> 0:35:43.920
<v Speaker 1>day and age people actually share that opinion. And then

0:35:43.960 --> 0:35:46.160
<v Speaker 1>people try and make excuses like, oh, they were only

0:35:46.239 --> 0:35:48.520
<v Speaker 1>together for a couple of months. It's like, so what,

0:35:48.680 --> 0:35:52.560
<v Speaker 1>this was a legitimate relationship. One person has emotionally cheated,

0:35:52.600 --> 0:35:54.040
<v Speaker 1>And while I don't think it's fair to have some

0:35:54.200 --> 0:35:56.840
<v Speaker 1>witch hunt, I do think though, we should have some

0:35:57.080 --> 0:36:00.759
<v Speaker 1>sympathy for Kath, who was mourning their relationship. You can

0:36:00.800 --> 0:36:03.400
<v Speaker 1>also see from the way that Jojo is with Chris,

0:36:03.719 --> 0:36:06.839
<v Speaker 1>she goes from zero to one hundred very quickly. Yeah,

0:36:06.840 --> 0:36:08.440
<v Speaker 1>as she seems like a bit of a love bomber.

0:36:08.480 --> 0:36:10.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm guessing maybe she was like that with Kath Ebbs

0:36:10.840 --> 0:36:14.000
<v Speaker 1>as well. Let's get into our Friday debrief and it's

0:36:14.040 --> 0:36:16.320
<v Speaker 1>been a big week for me as a mum because

0:36:16.440 --> 0:36:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Jack took his first steps so on Wednesday night, we

0:36:20.000 --> 0:36:22.919
<v Speaker 1>always have family dinner at my parents' house, and he'd

0:36:23.000 --> 0:36:26.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of been standing up and kind of going back

0:36:26.040 --> 0:36:28.919
<v Speaker 1>and forth on one foot, and I was like, he's

0:36:29.000 --> 0:36:31.720
<v Speaker 1>so close, He's going to do it. So he actually

0:36:31.840 --> 0:36:34.600
<v Speaker 1>ended up walking towards Amy. Amy had a soft toy

0:36:34.640 --> 0:36:37.120
<v Speaker 1>penguin in front of her and coaxed him across whilst

0:36:37.160 --> 0:36:40.400
<v Speaker 1>I was filming, and it was just such a magical moment.

0:36:40.480 --> 0:36:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Everyone was so proud and cheering him on, and he

0:36:42.960 --> 0:36:46.440
<v Speaker 1>looked so impressed with himself. It was so exciting, and

0:36:46.480 --> 0:36:48.719
<v Speaker 1>I love that we actually captured it on video. I

0:36:48.719 --> 0:36:51.440
<v Speaker 1>feel like we've always got our cameras rolling because you

0:36:51.560 --> 0:36:55.319
<v Speaker 1>also got a moment of him pulling Harry's dummy out

0:36:55.360 --> 0:36:57.960
<v Speaker 1>and Harry just looking so shocked. Oh, it was so

0:36:58.080 --> 0:37:00.920
<v Speaker 1>funny because he did it the other day. Amy greeted

0:37:01.040 --> 0:37:04.040
<v Speaker 1>us at the door, and it was like Jack was like, yank,

0:37:04.280 --> 0:37:06.319
<v Speaker 1>thank you, and it was like pop out of his mouth.

0:37:06.360 --> 0:37:09.800
<v Speaker 1>But at least he did say tar It's very polite.

0:37:10.120 --> 0:37:13.120
<v Speaker 1>I honestly feel this week like time is going so quickly.

0:37:13.160 --> 0:37:17.240
<v Speaker 1>I think it's because I officially received my C section

0:37:17.400 --> 0:37:20.319
<v Speaker 1>date and there is a bit of a story behind it,

0:37:20.360 --> 0:37:23.920
<v Speaker 1>but we roughly share about that once the baby is born,

0:37:23.960 --> 0:37:27.640
<v Speaker 1>because it's quite funny. But yeah, it's just all feeling

0:37:27.680 --> 0:37:30.400
<v Speaker 1>more real now that I can count down the days.

0:37:30.840 --> 0:37:34.320
<v Speaker 1>And I think it's scary also because we're like, fuck,

0:37:34.920 --> 0:37:37.040
<v Speaker 1>like Amy's gonna have to come back. I'm gonna go

0:37:37.080 --> 0:37:39.560
<v Speaker 1>and leave. Like it's all becoming more real. You've only

0:37:39.600 --> 0:37:41.600
<v Speaker 1>just got into this routine of going to your house. Now.

0:37:41.600 --> 0:37:43.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I'm gonna be back recording with Amy. Michelle

0:37:43.920 --> 0:37:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Andrews from Shameless is filling me with a bit of

0:37:46.120 --> 0:37:49.640
<v Speaker 1>confidence because she's returned three weeks postpartum on the podcast,

0:37:49.680 --> 0:37:52.520
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, maybe I can come back that quickly too. Well,

0:37:52.560 --> 0:37:54.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to burst your bubble or anything, but

0:37:54.120 --> 0:37:55.960
<v Speaker 1>she was missing from the next one and Anna bell

0:37:56.000 --> 0:37:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Lee had to step in. I think someone was sick

0:37:58.200 --> 0:38:01.319
<v Speaker 1>or something. Well she was back Thursday, so I mean,

0:38:01.719 --> 0:38:03.839
<v Speaker 1>good on her, Like, it's pretty amazing she's been able

0:38:03.840 --> 0:38:05.560
<v Speaker 1>to come back. She's had so much going on. I

0:38:05.600 --> 0:38:07.160
<v Speaker 1>think we'll be able to come back and record a

0:38:07.160 --> 0:38:09.520
<v Speaker 1>little bit because to break down the fourth wall, the

0:38:09.560 --> 0:38:11.960
<v Speaker 1>recording bit is the easy bit, like it's the research

0:38:12.239 --> 0:38:15.480
<v Speaker 1>doing the run sheet editing, you know, doing all the

0:38:15.560 --> 0:38:18.440
<v Speaker 1>extra workoutside of actually recorded. Yeah, it's a tough bit.

0:38:18.600 --> 0:38:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Do you know What's thrown me that we have a

0:38:20.040 --> 0:38:22.640
<v Speaker 1>long weekend coming up, so it is the King's birthday

0:38:23.280 --> 0:38:24.879
<v Speaker 1>and I want to put it out there. We are

0:38:24.880 --> 0:38:27.720
<v Speaker 1>going to be releasing our final installment of our Sarah's

0:38:27.760 --> 0:38:30.640
<v Speaker 1>Day deep dive. We've had so many dms asking when

0:38:30.760 --> 0:38:33.680
<v Speaker 1>is the last installment coming out? Probably not the best

0:38:33.719 --> 0:38:38.160
<v Speaker 1>timing after the flag that got for Tuesday's episode. Look,

0:38:38.200 --> 0:38:40.359
<v Speaker 1>there were a lot of opinions out there. Clearly our

0:38:40.400 --> 0:38:43.560
<v Speaker 1>opinion wasn't in the majority. Look, I remember saying during

0:38:43.560 --> 0:38:45.799
<v Speaker 1>that segment that Sarah's Day was quite aware of how

0:38:45.800 --> 0:38:48.480
<v Speaker 1>many feathers she was going to ruffle. I didn't realize

0:38:48.480 --> 0:38:52.520
<v Speaker 1>my opinion would come across as so controversial, but evidently

0:38:52.560 --> 0:38:52.839
<v Speaker 1>it did.

0:38:52.920 --> 0:38:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:38:53.160 --> 0:38:55.440
<v Speaker 1>I think that's what it's all about having an opinion podcast.

0:38:55.480 --> 0:38:58.400
<v Speaker 1>You're not always going to align with listener's opinions, and

0:38:58.440 --> 0:39:00.919
<v Speaker 1>I think that's what makes it in enjoyable people sharing

0:39:00.920 --> 0:39:03.759
<v Speaker 1>their opinion. I really enjoyed reading the group discussion because,

0:39:03.840 --> 0:39:06.319
<v Speaker 1>like ah, a lot of people that send their kids

0:39:06.320 --> 0:39:09.399
<v Speaker 1>to school actually like no holidays are more important. That's

0:39:09.400 --> 0:39:11.080
<v Speaker 1>the thing. I mean. People did point out that we're

0:39:11.080 --> 0:39:13.880
<v Speaker 1>obviously not at that life stage where we're sending kids

0:39:13.920 --> 0:39:17.000
<v Speaker 1>to school, so we're not school mums ourselves. No, I'll

0:39:17.040 --> 0:39:19.560
<v Speaker 1>probably be thinking, oh okay, I might take a holidays

0:39:19.600 --> 0:39:21.800
<v Speaker 1>during the term. Well. The thing that I also found

0:39:21.840 --> 0:39:25.759
<v Speaker 1>really interesting in the Facebook discussion in our group was

0:39:25.800 --> 0:39:28.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people saying that different states have different

0:39:28.400 --> 0:39:31.319
<v Speaker 1>rules in terms of when kids start school. So for

0:39:31.400 --> 0:39:34.200
<v Speaker 1>us in South Australia, most kids start school the year

0:39:34.200 --> 0:39:37.040
<v Speaker 1>that they turned five, so that's why we were saying

0:39:37.040 --> 0:39:39.440
<v Speaker 1>that we were quite surprised that Fox started at six.

0:39:39.520 --> 0:39:42.120
<v Speaker 1>We've since had parents writing in saying that most of

0:39:42.160 --> 0:39:45.200
<v Speaker 1>their kids do start school at six and it's really

0:39:45.239 --> 0:39:48.960
<v Speaker 1>important for boys in particular to reach a maturity level

0:39:49.160 --> 0:39:51.680
<v Speaker 1>where they feel confident and able to start. So it

0:39:51.719 --> 0:39:54.200
<v Speaker 1>did open up some interesting discussions and points of view

0:39:54.200 --> 0:39:56.160
<v Speaker 1>that I wasn't across. Yeah, I learned a lot about

0:39:56.160 --> 0:39:58.000
<v Speaker 1>it and found it really helpful considering I have a

0:39:58.040 --> 0:39:59.719
<v Speaker 1>son and I was like, God, when is he going

0:39:59.760 --> 0:40:02.480
<v Speaker 1>to Yeah, we were doing the sums because with our

0:40:02.560 --> 0:40:05.239
<v Speaker 1>kids being around a year apart, we were like, hold

0:40:05.280 --> 0:40:07.960
<v Speaker 1>on a second, so Harry could go to school with

0:40:08.120 --> 0:40:10.600
<v Speaker 1>my son, or he could go to school with Jack.

0:40:10.800 --> 0:40:13.200
<v Speaker 1>So we try to do them bath It's a shame

0:40:13.239 --> 0:40:14.719
<v Speaker 1>it's not our sons that are going in the same

0:40:14.800 --> 0:40:16.560
<v Speaker 1>year because we live close by, like we could have

0:40:16.600 --> 0:40:19.000
<v Speaker 1>shared the pickup and drop offs. I'm probably good for

0:40:19.040 --> 0:40:20.759
<v Speaker 1>them then when we can still do that, they've just

0:40:20.800 --> 0:40:24.320
<v Speaker 1>been different classes. Anyway, we hope you have an amazing

0:40:24.440 --> 0:40:26.840
<v Speaker 1>long weekend, and thank you so much again for listening

0:40:26.880 --> 0:40:29.840
