Well 24 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: that's the best thing about our podcast, I think is 25 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: that you can listen to it and you can agree 26 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: and disagree with our point of view. So thank you 27 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: again for all the support. Now, so if you've had 28 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: a pretty I would say, exciting week with your dog 29 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: who actually is now I think apparently an influencer. So 30 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: he's a bit of a mic influence. It's kind of 31 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,839 Speaker 1: a big deal around here. Yes, he is a big deal. Now, 32 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,320 Speaker 1: to my surprise, I got a message on my phone 33 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: telling me that I had a delivery that was about 34 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: to be dropped off and did hang on? Did actually 35 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: give out his own address? Well? No, I did, but 36 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: I literally forgot that it was happening. So I was like, 37 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: what did I buy online? I thought, am I having amnesia? 38 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: Like I can't even remember what I have bought? And 39 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: then I go outside to find a pass or sent 40 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: to him with his name, not Archie, with our address, 41 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: and it was a container of dog food for him. Wow, 42 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: he has made Instagram. I'm actually in all though, of 43 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: how supportive this dog community is, Like, he I have 44 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: one hundred requests in his thing for people messaging him 45 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 1: wanting to ask me where I've got in front of me. 46 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: Because I was just flicking through my feed and there's 47 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: Sophie doing a Q and A of Archie and I 48 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: was thinking, oh, you know what, She'll get one question 49 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: from me saying who's your favorite auntie? But there were 50 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: legitimate questions coming through heaps of them. I put that 51 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: up because when I was searching for a Cocaspaniel puppy, 52 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 1: I really wanted to find out more about them and 53 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,839 Speaker 1: I found it really helpful. So that's why I put 54 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: it up. About the engagement now though, But he's also 55 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: had dogs sliding into his d MS asking if he'll 56 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: breed with them. This is the new thing, dogs hitting 57 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: each other up. Looks like, I've got a question for you. 58 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: Now that he's sitting here, can you please give Shadow 59 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: a shout out? Because I feel like I'm failing at Instagram. 60 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: I have life for him. I've been trying to give 61 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: his cousin Ziggy and Shadow a shout out. But if 62 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: anyone in our community wants to go and follow them. 63 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: Maybe just go and check out. Yeah, poor Shadow only 64 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: has around one hundred followers, so a bit depressing. Now, Amy, 65 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: how was your week? My week was really busy, But 66 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: I did go to down the Rabbit Hole Winery on 67 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: the weekend and it's run by a influencer, Elise Cook, 68 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: and I actually haven't followed her before, but oh my gosh, 69 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: I'm going to. She was so lovely and she's so 70 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,959 Speaker 1: stunning looking, and I think you've got a girl crush 71 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: on her, because Amy was like, like, oh my god, 72 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: she's so perfect and beautiful and lovely. Well, my friend 73 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: who I went with, we were joking that she had 74 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: a girl crush on her because she's been in a 75 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: number of times. And we were laughing because we were 76 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: all sitting on the bus doing the wine tasting. We 77 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: were all there cackling like a hat. And then she 78 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: had just the voice of an angel, and I was 79 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: just a hot tip for any guys that are in 80 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: South Australia who might be listening, that is the place 81 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: to go to if you want to meet girls. Do 82 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: you know what I was most surprised about. You said 83 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: that they had these remember the trucker or the train 84 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: driver looking hats that girls were wearing a number of 85 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: years ago. I am so shocked to find out that 86 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: apparently they were selling them at this winery and that's 87 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: all the rage for men. Yeah, that was definitely the 88 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: look for all the men that were there. But let's 89 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: be honest, most of the men there were dragged along 90 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: by their girlfriends. But if you're a single guy, you 91 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: should bring your single guy friends there. There were women 92 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: galore who looked like they were just wanting to speak 93 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: to some single guys. So that's my hot tip for 94 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: the week. Well, on the topic of love life, my 95 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: Instagram feed has been inundated with engagements. I don't know 96 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: if it's engagement season because that's usually when it's starting 97 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: to get warmer, but there was the most extravagant engagement 98 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: I have seen for put as inverted commas, a normal person, 99 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: a non influencer on Instagram for quite a while now. 100 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: This is a sort of friend of a friend that 101 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: I know, and I was very impressed. He went above 102 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: and beyond, so I'll say either scene. They went out 103 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: for dinner. It was their second anniversary, so of course 104 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: she was all beautifully glammed up, which great tip for 105 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: guys out there and make sure your girlfriends looking good, 106 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: because when you want to get those photos, that's a bonus. Anyway, 107 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: So they went out to dinner and unbeknown to his girlfriend, 108 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: he had set up the most extravagant setting to propose. 109 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: So there was rose pedals, candles, there was a big 110 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: sign that said marry me. It was all lit up. 111 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: It was like biggest bunches of roses I've ever seen chocolates. Everything. 112 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: They even had a film crew there, didn't they Yeah, 113 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: so they had a film crew and he blindfolded her, 114 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 1: followed her down this path and proposed. Now, it was 115 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: actually amazing. What was more amazing was the rock. It 116 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: was huge, Like I don't know how this guy did it. 117 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: Props to him. It was amazing. But the funniest thing 118 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: was I was relaying this conversation to you guys and 119 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 1: Mum and our nana and we went and got hot 120 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: chocolates on the weekend. It was quite cute, and I 121 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: said to Mum and Nana, well, how did you guys 122 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: get proposed to? And the funniest thing is they couldn't remember. Now, 123 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 1: I just found it quite funny because it made you 124 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: reflect on how much Instagram and social media has really 125 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: changed proposals because I don't think it was such a 126 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: thing to put out there. I think the thing is 127 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: it just depends who your friendship group was back in 128 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: the day. I mean, if you would have heard about 129 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: your friends getting engaged, But now Instagram opens you up 130 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: to so many more people to actually witness their engagements 131 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: and to see what's gone down. Yeah, but I don't 132 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: think it was so performative before, and I think there 133 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: was a lot of pressure on how how did you 134 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: do it and what did the ring look like? It 135 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: was kind of like, oh, yeah, they got engaged. I 136 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: feel like it's a spectator sport now to see who 137 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: can outdo one another. Would would you guys want to 138 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: be proposed to like that? I personally thought having the 139 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: film crew there kind of took away the sort of 140 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: romance and the intimacy of the moment. But it was 141 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: very beautiful, but it probably was a bit shelly for me. Well, 142 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: I feel like you would want it captured in some way. 143 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I suppose everyone's unique. I mean that proposal 144 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: may have suited them, or as a different proposal will 145 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: suit someone else. Well, I think it was really cute 146 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: the way Olivia rote and I think a boyfriend's name's 147 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: justin how he got someone to film from far away 148 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: like it was kind of a bit candidate, but at 149 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: least they captured the moment. Well, we'd love to hear 150 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: what you think. Go to our Facebook community because we're 151 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: going to be putting the question in there, how would 152 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: you like to be proposed? And maybe you could also 153 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: share parents' proposals as well, because I would find that 154 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: really interesting because we've had some hilarious conversations with friends 155 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: about how their parents got engaged and it's hardly romantic, 156 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: it's actually pretty hilarious. So please share those stories with 157 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: us in our community. We'll have a link to that 158 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: in our show notes. 159 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: I'm not going to let anyone talk about me like 160 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: I'm a piece of garbage. 161 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: He's trying to be our lad out there in front 162 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: of all the boys. 163 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 3: I don't want a lad. 164 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: I want a gentleman, someone that's going to talk about 165 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: me a bit in respect. Influencer Madison Woolley has taken 166 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: to YouTube to slam The Outspoken podcast following our episode, 167 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: which critiqued her decision to ignore the government's advice not 168 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: to holiday in Melbourne. Madison labeled our criticism of her 169 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: tone deaf behavior as hate and deflected attention around her 170 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: travel plans, instead choosing to enter the discussion around her parents' 171 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: wealth and her own financial situation. Following the upload, Madison 172 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: Stands launched an attack on our podcast, which got us 173 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: thinking about stant culture. Now, Kate to kick us off, 174 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: can you talk us through what has happened over the 175 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: past few days. Yeah. So, on Thursday we were alerted 176 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: to the fact that Madison had uploaded a YouTube video 177 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: entitled Update Q and a Mexican food Mukbung, where she 178 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: answered fan questions including what age do you want to 179 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: get married, how do you edit photos? And what do 180 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: your parents think about your job? So it was all 181 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: a bit of fun until one fan asked how do 182 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: you deal with hate and criticism? And this is what 183 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: she said. 184 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 2: This is actually a funny one and I actually I 185 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 2: said in my previous video as well. If you guys 186 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 2: haven't seen it, I really feel guys, I'm so sorry. 187 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 2: I mean, I have another target for you, but I'm 188 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 2: so full. I actually dealt with the other day some 189 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 2: quite notally brutal hate. Well, I mean it was kind 190 00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 2: of rude. A podcast. Actually that's really just laing into me. 191 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say who because I just don't want to. 192 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: I just don't want to talk about it. 193 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, this podcast of three girls just really ripped into me. 194 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 2: And I had quite a few people send me like 195 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 2: the episode where they like talk about me and yeah, 196 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 2: they spoke about like my parents' money and how like 197 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 2: I don't have my own money and I really like 198 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 2: tone deaf and it was really horrible listening to that 199 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 2: about myself, especially when all of it is just so. 200 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: Not true. 201 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: I was like listening to I was like, you have 202 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 2: literally no idea. Yeah, So that was that was actually 203 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 2: quite recent where I was like really not like upset 204 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 2: by it, but it was more infuriating for me because 205 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 2: they were saying like all these things about me, like 206 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 2: making claims, and I was just like, that is not true. 207 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: So that was kind of really frustrating. But and I 208 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 2: kind of wanted to like say something, but everyone was 209 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 2: like no, like you just gotta leave and let it go. 210 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 2: Criticism like everyone's gonna have something an opinion to say 211 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 2: about you, and even though you know when you hear it, 212 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 2: you can get so mad, which is what I was. 213 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 2: I was like, that is so unfair, and then I 214 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 2: kind of took a step back and I was like, 215 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 2: what's it going to do, like me saying something back 216 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 2: to them, like being the bigger person. Let it go 217 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 2: and just keep doing your own thing. You just keep 218 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 2: focusing on yourself in one year out the other. Keep 219 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 2: focusing on your own thing. Don't let the opinions of 220 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 2: others bother you. 221 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 1: So instead of actually focusing on the critique we provided 222 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: in terms of her traveling to Melbourne multiple times and 223 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 1: then also going to Byron Bay and also to Noosa, instead, 224 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: Madison decided to focus on the fact that we had 225 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: spoken about her parents' wealth, which was in fact true. 226 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: But the only reason we spoke about her parents' wealth 227 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: was the fact that she speaks about it all the 228 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: time in her videos and it's a constant theme. Now, 229 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: can I interject when you say we spoke about her parents' wealth. 230 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: We touched on the fact that it was a most 231 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 1: requested question about her was what do her parents do 232 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: and do they pay for things for her? But as 233 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: you said, this is what she talks about a lot 234 00:10:58,280 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: on her channel, So I think we should go straight 235 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: in to our grubs and let's have a listen to 236 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: what she talks about on her channel. 237 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 2: I think the most frequent assumption I got word was 238 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 2: about like my parents and money and stuff like that, 239 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 2: and a lot of people are really interested in that, 240 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 2: and I'm just like, yo, that's so rude, but whatever, 241 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 2: I do it for the video. You're rich, your parents 242 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 2: are super rich. 243 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,839 Speaker 1: Your parents pay for a lot. There's like, I'm not 244 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: even kidding, that's a lot about that. 245 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,959 Speaker 2: Your parents buy everything, like they pay for everything, they 246 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 2: pay for or your living expenses. No, okay, I'm not 247 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 2: going to go into this because first of all, it's 248 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 2: really rude being like who pays for this? But I 249 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: pay for my own I pay for myself. Okay, So 250 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 2: my parents today are very successful. 251 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: Like I'll be honest with you. As you can see, 252 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: this is a topic of conversation that a lot of 253 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 1: Madison's fans actually want to hear about. In fact, her 254 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: video about her house tour in NUSA, which is her 255 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: parents house, got over a million, so it's something that 256 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: actually attracts people to her channel. But you compare that 257 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: to the regular view she gets, which is about the 258 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 1: twenty thousand viewer, Mark, you can see that this is 259 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: what is attracting a lot of attention. Yeah, and as 260 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: you pointed out, she's really not afraid to talk about 261 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: her parents' wealth, what they do for a job, and 262 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: also talk about what they have paid for in the past, 263 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 1: and as well as she talks about how she has 264 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: stood on her own two feet. Exactly right. So now 265 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: we're going to throw to a couple of clips that 266 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: will refresh your memory on the main points that we 267 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: made during our conversation about Madison Wooly. One that really 268 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: got my attention on the weekend, probably for all the 269 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: wrong reasons, was a video by influencer Madison Woolly and 270 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: it was entitled Weekend in My Life Anniversary Getaway. And 271 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 1: to say this video was bragging is an understatement. Yeah, 272 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: And to put this into context, this is her fourth 273 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: trip in the last month. I'd say she's been to Noosa, 274 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: she went away to Byron Bay. Of course we talked 275 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: about her on the show a couple of weeks ago 276 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: she was in Melbourne and then now she's having a 277 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: night away hotel. So not only is that kind of 278 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: really difficult to grapple with when a lot of us 279 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: don't even have money to go on, you know, one 280 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 1: holiday or even maybe pay for food. That's not her fault, 281 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: I know, but it just is extremely tone deaf to 282 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: be putting that information out. And the whole vlog started 283 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: with her bragging about the fact that she had been 284 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: shopping all day and it was only Friday, so she 285 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: had the rest of the weekend to go on this 286 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: extravagant weekend away, and she was bragging about how she 287 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: had just bought a Gucci bag. Well that's what got me, 288 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: she said. She only had the intention of popping in 289 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: and buying a few things, but then left with a 290 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: Beck and Bridge dress which would be two hundred plus 291 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: a Gucci bag which I googled and found out was 292 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: two eight hundred and fifty dollars, and then this ridiculously 293 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: huge sun hat but that was seventy percent off it. 294 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: But I mean, I just think that in this sort 295 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: of economic time, when people are losing their jobs and 296 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 1: as you say, money is so tired, I just don't 297 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: think it's something that people want to be seeing in 298 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 1: their feed. Now, before we delve any deeper into the discussion, 299 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: we want to make a very important retraction Madison stands 300 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: have pointed out that we mentioned Madison purchased a two thousand, 301 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: eight hundred dollar Gucci bag during her three thousand dollar 302 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: shopping spree, it was in fact a two eight hundred 303 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: dollars Prior bag. We're deeply sorry if this caused any offense. 304 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: It is, of course of high importance to correctly identify 305 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: and influences designer handbag brand of choice during a pandemic. 306 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: We are so so sorry. So as you can see, 307 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: we were really focused on Madison's decision to travel during 308 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: the pandemic, and at that time there was a lot 309 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: of information going on out there that we just wanted 310 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: to refresh everyone's memory on. So if we're looking at 311 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: the facts, Madison and her boyfriend Jonathan Sower first traveled 312 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: from Sydney to Melbourne on June six. During this trip, 313 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: they went to Wineries and also enjoyed a helicopter flight. Now, 314 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: Madison and Jonathan embarked on their second trip from Sydney 315 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,239 Speaker 1: to Melbourne on June twenty third, and they actually documented 316 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: this trip across the Instagram and later in a vlog 317 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: entitled Daily Vlog A Day in Melbourne, which was uploaded 318 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: on July fourth. Now, Madison explained in this blog exactly 319 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: what she was doing in Melbourne, which we'll just throw 320 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: to now. 321 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: Good morning, guys, and welcome to and welcome to another vlog. 322 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 2: So obviously right now I'm in a different area.

So I'm here with John. 337 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 2: He's come down with me and we are actually hiring 338 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 2: a car today and going for a drive out towards 339 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 2: like the wineries, and we're actually doing like the hot 340 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 2: springs like dayspathy. It's called the Morning Mornington Peninsula. I 341 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 2: think in Melbourne. I don't know if you guys are 342 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 2: from Melbourne. I'm not getting that right. 343 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, just to put this into context. At 344 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: this time, it was only people who were meant to 345 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: be doing essential travel to Melbourne. And I'm sorry, but 346 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: it's doing a photo shoot and having a few meetings 347 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: for a brand, really essential travel. And could they not 348 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: have been done in Sydney, where she's from, or meetings 349 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: via zoom? Yeah, exactly right, this is what I didn't understand. Now, 350 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: for some further background information, the borders in New South 351 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: Wales and Victoria did not close during this period, and 352 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: that was during that first half of the pandemic. They 353 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: were still open. However, as you said, non essential travel 354 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: was highly discouraged and the New South Wales government advisor 355 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: that it should be avoided at all costs. Now, what 356 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: is even worse about this situation is the fact that 357 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: on the day Madison and Jonathan traveled, the New South 358 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: Wales Premier warned people to change their travel plans from 359 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: Melbourne because Melbourne had recorded a total of oney eight 360 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty four COVID cases at the time, with 361 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,479 Speaker 1: seventeen new cases recorded that day. A week after Madison 362 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: and Jonathan got back from Melbourne, Victoria was declared a 363 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: state of disaster. What's most disturbing though, is at the 364 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: job of an influencer is to influence the actions of 365 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: other people, and this trip to Melbourne was broadcast on 366 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: her YouTube channel. Now, a lot of Madison's fans have 367 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: defended her behavior by saying that Madison was supporting the economy. 368 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: But let's be honest. These trips would have been paid 369 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: for by the hotels, they would have been gifted by 370 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 1: the hotels. She was not supporting the economy. If anything, 371 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: this type of action is destroying the economy. It's incredibly 372 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: reckless behavior, especially, as you say, when these people have 373 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: a platform. And I also want to point out that 374 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 1: I know we are talking about Madison at the moment 375 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: original podcast, we spoke about a number of different influencers 376 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: who were doing this, and we don't want to be 377 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: singling anyone out, because you know, this whole situation is 378 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: not one person's fault. But when these people have ridiculous 379 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: amounts of power for their age, I think we need 380 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: to hold certain behavior into account exactly right, Sophie, and 381 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,479 Speaker 1: this isn't an isolated incident. Not only has Madison traveled 382 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 1: twice to Melbourne. Once she got back from Melbourne when 383 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: it was considered a hot spot for coronavirus, she then 384 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: traveled to Byron Bay. Now travel in New South Wales 385 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: was acceptable for residents of New South Wales, so it 386 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: was totally within the law to go to Byron Bay. 387 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: There was a lot of conversation around who sheoul quarantine 388 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: for the fourteen days, and I think that Madison and 389 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: Jonathan really fell into that gray area where ethically she 390 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 1: probably should or quarantined and not further traveled to another destination. 391 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: She went on to Byron Bay. I mean, if she 392 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: had had coronavirus, she's gone from Melbourne to Byron Bay, 393 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 1: back to Sydney and then to NUSS. Coronavirus doesn't discriminate 394 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 1: just because you're an influencer or someone who's wealthy or 395 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: a celebrity, whoever you may be, it doesn't mean that 396 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: you're not going to get it. I think we also 397 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: have to remember at the moment that weddings are being capped, 398 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 1: funerals are being capped. There's so many regular things that 399 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: we can't do as a society that are really important 400 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 1: to us. We can't even go and visit loved ones 401 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,640 Speaker 1: if they are in hospital dying of coronavirus. Yet at 402 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: this time, some of these people deem it essential that 403 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: they are traveling around to promote brands for their influence 404 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: of businesses now whatever. Her biggest defenders was Georgie Rafferty, 405 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: who owns a company called Pilot Luxury Relations. And Georgie 406 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 1: has thirty three thousand followers on Instagram, so she happened 407 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: to be at a meeting with Madison Woolley at a 408 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: Sydney hotel during the time she decided to comment on 409 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 1: our three week old Instagram posts promoting the episode which 410 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: Madison was mentioned in. Yeah, so Georgie has gone onto 411 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: our Instagram account, as Amy said, and decided to comment 412 00:19:56,359 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 1: something negative on the podcast we did about Madison. Well, 413 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: this is culminating when Madison uploaded her YouTube video. So 414 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: it seems the pair were discussing it during their meeting 415 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: at the language And can I just point out people 416 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 1: are allowed to have their own opinion, Like, that's what 417 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: our podcast is all about. We say things that we 418 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,959 Speaker 1: know people are not going to agree with that. We 419 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 1: sometimes I don't agree with each other, and that's the 420 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 1: fun of our podcast. So we want to just point 421 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 1: out people are well and truly welcome to their own opinion, 422 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 1: and they're also welcome not to listen if they don't 423 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: enjoy it. But the thing that has been very hypocritical 424 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: is that Georgie runs a traveling company. Now, Amy, can 425 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: you go into the details of her luxury traveling company? Well? 426 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: Being investigative journalists, we had a little look into who 427 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: Georgie Rafferty is and what her business is all about. 428 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: So her website states that her business works with resorts, hotels, jets, yachts, 429 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: and luxury brands and services. So basically she contacts influencers 430 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: and links them up with hotels, which is quite ironic 431 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 1: because we were commenting on Madison's into State travel and 432 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 1: this led us to believe that maybe was Georgie responsible 433 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: for lining up the Melbourne Hotel Samy, Well, Amy, For 434 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: those who haven't seen the back and forth on Instagram, 435 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: can you tell us what the crux of Georgie's argument 436 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: was against us? Well, Georgie's issue was that she said 437 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: that Madison is a really nice person, so we shouldn't 438 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: be commenting on her and her parents' wealth. So she 439 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 1: didn't really delve into the issue that we had was 440 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 1: that Madison was traveling drinker pans, but she really seemed 441 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 1: to deflect the whole travel even when we reiterated that 442 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 1: that's what our podcast initially had a problem with, which 443 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: is exactly what you're going to do if you're the 444 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 1: one behind organizing all these lavish trips. Well, we did 445 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: actually put the question to Georgie. We said, so, were 446 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: you responsible for organizing Madison's trips to Melbourne? She has 447 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 1: in fact denied this, and she did tease and say, 448 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: we'll have to wait and see what they're collaborating on. 449 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: So I suppose we'll have to keep you posted. And 450 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: so I suppose it does remain somewhat a mystery of 451 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: who has organized Madison's Audi higher car, her helicopter trip, 452 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: and her visit to a lattery Hot Springs resort. So 453 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 1: mystery if anyone know, love, if you could help us out. 454 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, we're just a little bit perplexed over that one. Well, 455 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,199 Speaker 1: there was a little bit of a clue on Madison's 456 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: photo that she uploaded on the plane going to Melbourne, 457 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: which was commented on by Pilot Luxury Travel, which said, Oh, 458 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: it's so good to see you traveling again. So yeah, 459 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: that's funny about that. That's a difficult one. Now, since 460 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: Madison posted the YouTube video, we have had an influx 461 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: of Madison's stands coming across to our page and telling 462 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: us that we're jealous bitches and that we don't know 463 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: anything that we're talking about. Now, we are more than 464 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: happy to take on constructive feedback. That's fine. We've got 465 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: tough skin. So thank you for the people sharing their feedback. 466 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: I mean, when it's not so constructive and they're just 467 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: calling you bitches, well just unfollow and don't subscribe to us, 468 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:49,880 Speaker 1: you know, stop listening. Basically, Sophie. It's kind of made 469 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: us think more about this stand culture because I've heard 470 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: about it, but when it was directed at us, it 471 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 1: kind of made me laugh, but then also be annoyed 472 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: because I'm like, don't we have anything better to do 473 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 1: with their time? Yeah, it's really interesting because the phenomenon 474 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: of stan culture has been covered in recent weeks by 475 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: publications like The Guardian and Pedestrian. Now, for those listening 476 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: at home, who don't know what stan a stan is, 477 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: which was me a couple of weeks ago. So a 478 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: stan is an over zealous or obsessive fan of a 479 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 1: particular celebrity or influencer. Now, some people think that it's 480 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 1: derived from Eminem's song which is called Stan, which is 481 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: of course about a crazed fan, and others think that 482 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 1: it is the mixture of the two words fan and stalker. Now, 483 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 1: stanning has really taken over social media networks as fans 484 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,719 Speaker 1: have unlimited access to their favorite celebrities or influencers. And 485 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: not only does stan culture glorify stalking, but in some 486 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: cases it also promotes bullying because it gives a person 487 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: a sense of entitlement towards that person, and they feel 488 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: a sense of ownership over the person that they are 489 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: choosing to stan. I don't know if it's you're a stalker, 490 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: if you're a stan like, that's not the connotation I 491 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: get when I hear the word stan. I think of 492 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: people who would just die hard fans and will defend 493 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: this person that they like the well in saying that, 494 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,479 Speaker 1: I think that there's two elements to a stand. As 495 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 1: you said, one is that stalker element, which some you know, 496 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: a list celebrities experience, and the other element is that 497 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: person who will just defend that person blindly for no reason. 498 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: What do you guys think about the fact that Madison 499 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,959 Speaker 1: really went onto her platform of over one hundred thousand 500 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 1: subscribers on YouTube and decided to tell her fans about 501 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 1: quote the hate she received. Do you think she as 502 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: being as an influencer and someone has responsibility to her fans. 503 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 1: Do you think that she should have moderated the comments 504 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 1: because for those who don't know, while she didn't name 505 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: the Outspoken podcast, she narrowed it down to a podcast 506 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: with three girls, and then in the comments there were 507 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:53,199 Speaker 1: conversations naming our podcast and Madison then went on and 508 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 1: screenshotted the commentary and popped it onto her Instagram account 509 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: of five hundred thousand people and said, you know, thank 510 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: you so much for all the amazing comments, alerting people 511 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: to the fact to read the comments. Do you think 512 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 1: an influencer like Madison Willy has some responsibility to the 513 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: behavior of what her fans then to choose to do 514 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: with that information. Well, I definitely think she tried to 515 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: influence them to go over to our podcast platform and 516 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: potentially troll us. While she didn't say in so many words, 517 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: I think her the YouTube video itself and the action 518 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: of her screenshotting it and encouraging the commentary calling us bullies. 519 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: I feel like that definitely prompted people to come over. 520 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: It's interesting because a lot of the STAN articles that 521 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: Sophie reference talk about big celebrities, for example, like Taylor 522 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 1: Swift and other people like that, And the thing is 523 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: that most of these people are too busy actually writing 524 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: music or being actresses to actually engage with this kind 525 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: of behavior, whereas influencers sit on their phone all day, 526 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: so I do. Their whole job is to connect with 527 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: their fans and build that engagement, like you know them. 528 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 1: But can I interject? I feel like she has every 529 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: right to say something about our podcasts on her platform, 530 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: mess she chooses to do something, just as we on 531 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 1: our own platform have the right to speak of and 532 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: critique her. I don't think she has the right to 533 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: blur the lines and insinuate stuff that was not said 534 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 1: in saying that. It's really interesting because the Pedestrian article 535 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: I was talking about earlier, they spoke about how they 536 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: have been so affected by STAN culture that they've actually 537 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: had to take the journalists bylines off their articles because 538 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: people receiving so much hate. And they spoke about how 539 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: every time they write about an artist, particularly a pop star, 540 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 1: they run the risk of incurring the wrath of the 541 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: artists fans. And they spoke about how their staff have 542 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: become targets of orchestrated harassment campaigns, and that ranged from 543 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 1: either childish memes to very specific threats, and staff have 544 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: even had their locations revealed online, their families and universities 545 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: have been bombarded with emails and calls, and their social 546 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 1: media profiles have been flooded with hate. Now, I think 547 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 1: there becomes a point when we as a society are 548 00:26:55,480 --> 00:27:00,160 Speaker 1: allowed to critique people without the fear of copying hatred back. 549 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: As I say, bullying is never the right thing to do. 550 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: I think that you're allowed to critique but not bully obviously. Yeah, 551 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: And there's been a lot of podcasts in recent times 552 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: that have been criticized for actually not naming influencers who 553 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: they've critiqued their behavior. I think Shameless is one. They 554 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 1: were very much named influencers and then kind of stop 555 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: doing that. And I do think it was probably fear 556 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 1: for stands coming out and trying to destroy it. But 557 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 1: I think there were two reasons though, because Shameless started 558 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 1: to develop a huge platform of their own that they 559 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: didn't want to direct their own stands towards that person 560 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: as well. And also, I mean there's been lots of 561 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: talk as well about these stands coming over and destroying podcasts. 562 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 1: Because it's interesting with YouTube, if you're a creator on YouTube, 563 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: you can actually delete comments that people leave, but with 564 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: Apple podcasts, you actually can't even report comments that are 565 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,920 Speaker 1: vicious in nature. You're also true, so you also can't 566 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 1: respond to those comments. There's no platform to write back 567 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: to these people. Is the actual ability for these influencers 568 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: to send their stands over to different podcasts and literally 569 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 1: ruin their ranking on Apple, which is what some of 570 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: these people have been doing to our podcasts. They've been 571 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 1: leaving zero and I just think I think that there 572 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: needs to be some kind can leave zero. Sorry a one, 573 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: it's a one. And the thing is, as we said, 574 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: we're open to criticism, but when you haven't actually listened 575 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 1: to the podcast and you're able to send people over 576 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 1: to leave us, hey, I actually think that something needs 577 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,479 Speaker 1: to be done. Yeah, And that's what I think. I 578 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: was frustrated about the fact that there is the ability 579 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: to moderate your comments on YouTube and the fact that 580 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: Madison on her video said that she did not want 581 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: to name us or you know, talk directly with us 582 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: about the content. However, allowed her fans to name us 583 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: and then publicize those comments and sent fans our way. 584 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: I think, you know, where does the responsibility lie there? 585 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 1: But in saying that as well, I did notice there 586 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: were a number of comments in support us pointing out 587 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: the fact that we actually had an issue with her 588 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: traveling during COVID, but those comments were subsequently removed, and 589 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: there have been numerous comments on the actual travel vlogs 590 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: themselves about questioning her behavior to travel. So it is 591 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: interesting that she can control the narrative in that situation. 592 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: I suppose. Just to wrap this up, we just want 593 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: to highlight the fact that we are more than open 594 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: to constructive criticism. As so iph you mentioned earlier, our 595 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: podcast is called out spoken. We often don't even agree 596 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: with each other's opinions, and I think that's what makes 597 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 1: this podcast good and having raw opinions and just butt 598 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: in the case, everyone grows from constructive criticism. You can 599 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: become better at what you do from getting constructive criticism, 600 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: but in saying that saying things that are untrue or 601 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: lies is not constructive criticism. Yeah, and I think in 602 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 1: no way do I stand by anyone calling us bullies. 603 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: I think that it's a really sad time when you 604 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: can't hold someone who has influence to account without being 605 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: labeled a bully. I so disagree with the commentary around 606 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: oh because where women were meant to support women. Of 607 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: course that is a great thing to do. However, as women, 608 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: we can't just blindly sit by and watch someone do 609 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 1: the wrong thing and not have a conversation about it. 610 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: That is such a good point. And what is ironic 611 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: is that Madison was actually featured on the Hughesy and 612 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 1: Edge show. So they're doing this segment where they highlight 613 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: an influencer of the week. Now that segment is completely 614 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: taking the piss because I kept seeing Madison Woolly and 615 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: Tylia Scaines promoting the fact that they were going to 616 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: be appearing on the radio, and I was like, Wow, 617 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: what's this about? And then when I listened, it was 618 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: so funny. They were very much implying that only men 619 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: followed her. She did not take offense that at all. 620 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: She laughed it off. She laughed everything off. Yeah, and 621 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: they were also belittling her vlogs and what she did, 622 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,239 Speaker 1: so they were making fun of the fact that, you know, 623 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: they asked her exactly, what does working full time mean 624 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: to you? And oh, so you just take photos and 625 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: videos of yourself all day. It with the insinuation was 626 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: that she was unintelligent for doing that job. It was 627 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: I mean, they were having a little bit of fun. 628 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: But Madison went on her Instagram, she promoted this segment. 629 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: Everyone supported it. Yet when it's women calling out the 630 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,719 Speaker 1: behavior of another woman for traveling into state during a pandemic, 631 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: we are labeled as bullies and jealous bitches. 632 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 633 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: Now, I understand that this segment is focused directly on 634 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: Madison bully and that is just because we wanted to 635 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: address the claims that she sent out to a six 636 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: hundred thousand plus followers on her Instagram and YouTube channel, 637 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: and we just want to say that we're aware that 638 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: she is not the only person doing the wrong thing 639 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,959 Speaker 1: in regards to traveling, and we did highlight that on 640 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: our previous episode. So if you do want to have 641 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: a listen to that episode. You can go back and 642 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: find it from three weeks ago, just n forward disappear. 643 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 3: Did they give a fuck? Unfollowed leave We'll never see 644 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 3: you again? Phenomenal. We didn't want you here in the 645 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 3: first place. We don't want you here now, we want 646 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 3: you here in the future. You are ruining the vibe 647 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 3: that we have going on, Shad saying. 648 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: Now let's get into the pit and the peak of 649 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: the social media week, Sophie, can you start us off 650 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: with the peace? I think the peak has to be 651 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: that Chloe zep and Mitchell Orvaler absolutely pumping out the 652 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: content at the moment. Now, of course we spoke about 653 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,959 Speaker 1: how they had given birth to their son Artist. Well, 654 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: Chloe had given birth, that's right, Mitchell did. And the 655 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: thing that I found most interesting is that they had 656 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: a professional videographer of film the whole birthing experience. So 657 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: I think it's going to take a number of weeks 658 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: until we get to see that, but they have been 659 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: sharing what it's like to have a newborn child. These 660 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: days in the lifelogs have been so interesting and it's 661 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: really heartwarming to actually see Chloe and Mitch's parents. They 662 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: seem to be really doing a great job of it. 663 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: But I had noticed last night that Mitchell shared a 664 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: post about how he's been really grateful for all the 665 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: feedback fans and followers have been giving him, but he 666 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: kind of is at the point where he needs everyone 667 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 1: to sort of stop because it's just getting too much. Well, 668 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: I think it was the fact that a lot of 669 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: people were writing, or you're doing this wrong, you're doing 670 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: that wrong, and this could lead to your child dying, 671 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 1: which is of course incredibly negative when you're trying to 672 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: do the best. Now, what was really interesting is Mitchell 673 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,959 Speaker 1: seems to want to rebrand his whole YouTube channel now. 674 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: He's thrown out the suggestion of calling it Mac Family 675 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: or cam Family, now that Mac is of course Mitchell 676 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 1: artist Chloe, and I don't think people really like the suggestion, 677 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 1: because he then followed up with a subsequent suggestion of 678 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: just calling it the Orvils or the Oral Family. So 679 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: I'm glad that they've gone with the Orvils. That is 680 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 1: so much more on brand. And I think Chloe said 681 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 1: she's ready to now get proposed because she needs to 682 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: be an Orvil. Now we should probably get onto the pit, 683 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 1: which is of course the breakup between Kayla Estinas and 684 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: her fiance Toby. Now, these two were absolute Adelaide royalty. 685 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: They of course launched BBG program together in twenty thirteen, 686 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: and most recently they became parents to their daughter Ana, 687 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: And it's just so sad to hear that they have 688 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: parted ways. Oh my gosh. I was shocked when this 689 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: popped up in my newsfeed, and it was so funny 690 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 1: because I told everyone in the office and then I 691 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: was getting messages from friends and you guys saying, oh 692 00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 1: my ok God, Kaylor and Toby have broken up. And 693 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: I suppose what's quite interesting about this split is the 694 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: fact that they are worth so much money. I think 695 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,720 Speaker 1: it's nearly up to a billion dollars that their sweat 696 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,439 Speaker 1: empire is now worth. But also the fact that they're 697 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 1: still going to be working together. I wonder how long 698 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 1: that will actually last. Yeah, I mean, I think it 699 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: was a really classy release that they put out that 700 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: they're still friends, that they're still working together, and they're 701 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: going to do the best to support their daughter. Well, 702 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 1: it was your typical sort of happy, happy, we're still 703 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: friends released, but we're better offers, you know, business partners. 704 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 1: I think down the track. It will be interesting to 705 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: see actually how that fares, because I don't know, I 706 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 1: don't know how productive it can be working with your 707 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 1: ex partner. Does anyone feel like there's a little bit 708 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: more to the story than we're being told. I know 709 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 1: a lot of people are saying maybe it's a result 710 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: of COVID and spending a lot of time together, but 711 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 1: I think this pair, the fact that they work together 712 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,760 Speaker 1: and obviously live together. They already spent a substantial amount 713 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: of time and they've been together for eight years, so 714 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: I you know, let's I am sure, knowing Adelaide, there'll 715 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 1: be lots of gossip around, which is you know, it's 716 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 1: sad for Kaylor and Toby, but I'm sure we'll hear 717 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: a bit more about what's actually happened. Now it's time 718 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 1: for the reality wrap. Now everyone is talking about the 719 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 1: Plan C Bachelor, which was announced by this so dramatic 720 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: podcast last week. What do were your thoughts on this? 721 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: It doesn't surprise me. I mean, looking at who the 722 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 1: different options were, I can see why they would have 723 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 1: been picked before Lockie and it's been bloody and it's 724 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: been bloody boring. I keep falling asleep in the Bachelor. Now, 725 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: for those who haven't heard, the original person who was 726 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 1: asked to be the bachelor was model Jet Kenny. I 727 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: actually haven't heard of him before. Yeah, I didn't know 728 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: who he was. He was apparently on Dancing with the 729 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: Stars and then got into a relationship with someone on 730 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 1: the show, so that ruled him out. Now, the second 731 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: plan b Bachelor was a bit of a shock to 732 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: me because it was AFL star Alex rants Now, it 733 00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: wasn't touched on on the So Dramatic podcast, but for 734 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: those who don't know, he recently divorced his wife and 735 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 1: he's got he's got a number of children, so it 736 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 1: did seem like an interesting option for him to be 737 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 1: put forward. What sort of makes this story even more 738 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: interesting is the fact that Alex Rantz retired from football 739 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 1: last year, which shocked the football community. So maybe this 740 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 1: was actually lined up. But then again, didn't he retire 741 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,720 Speaker 1: because he wanted to spend more time on his religion, 742 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:24,879 Speaker 1: So then it seems weird to take on that sort 743 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 1: of role. Yeah, well, I actually have met Alex a 744 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: few times. He wouldn't know who I was, but my 745 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 1: ex boyfriend's brother played AFL at the Tigers and they 746 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: were kind of working on a special project with each 747 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 1: other back in twenty fourteen. Now, after seeing him a 748 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,319 Speaker 1: few times in the office, I'm upset that he wasn't Bachelotte. 749 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: He was hot. We really good. Well, apparently the girls 750 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 1: on Locky season were actually cast for Alex So I 751 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: mean I'd personally be a little bit disappointed if I 752 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 1: rocked up and he wasn't there and it was Locky. Yeah, 753 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 1: I know, it is a bit disappointing. I'm really hoping 754 00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: Lockie season starts to get better. There's so much drama 755 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 1: sort of going on amongst the girls, but it doesn't 756 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 1: really eventuate into anything interesting. Do you know what I 757 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: thought that was pretty funny that came out about Lockie 758 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 1: this week was there was an article about the fact 759 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,240 Speaker 1: that he has three nipples, Like, is that how desperate 760 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: we are for Bachelor news? Gosh? Well, moving on to 761 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,399 Speaker 1: Bachelor and Paradise Rest in Peace, it was much more 762 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 1: interesting than The Bachelor. There is a feud currently going 763 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 1: on between Alisha Glenn and Jewels. Now, say, can you 764 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,479 Speaker 1: fill me in? Because I saw a little bit about 765 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: this on Batchy Funnies Instagram. It's a bizarre feud because 766 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,479 Speaker 1: no one quite knows what's going on. And for those 767 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: who don't remember, Jewles is the guy who broke Alisha's 768 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 1: heart on but quite really it was a complete bit 769 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 1: of a dick now. Fans have been left divided about 770 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 1: this comment and whether it's shady or not. So there 771 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: was a photo of Alisha and Glenn and Jeweles left 772 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: the comment google search frog meme now for those who 773 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 1: don't remember the frog meme circulated a number of years ago. 774 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: Was that very crudely drawn frog line from him. But 775 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: my favorite meme was when he was still McDonald's chips 776 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: anyway back in the day anyway, and Alisha responded to 777 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 1: this prob's time to tap out, buddy now. Glenn hit 778 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: back saying Google search umbrella of ambiguity. Now for those 779 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,919 Speaker 1: playing at home, this is the quote that Jules used 780 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: on Bachelor and Paradise to describe his and Alisha's relationship 781 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: and which was equally confusing at the time as what's 782 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 1: going on in this Instagram comments And then Alisha added 783 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,280 Speaker 1: to this by sharing a photo of her and Glenn 784 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:33,760 Speaker 1: under an umbrella, saying, hey, Siri, play umbrella Byrianna Now 785 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: was Jules trying to refer that Alisha looks like the 786 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: frog meme, well, because that's really bloody rue. The frog 787 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 1: always looks has a very blank expression or a sad expression. 788 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: So I don't know if this was maybe in reference to, 789 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: you know, poking fun at the cheating rumors that were 790 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,760 Speaker 1: going around the place, and that she would be sad. 791 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: I'm not quite. I'm so confused. I did see that 792 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 1: Jules also referred to Glenn as Greg, which was the 793 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: name that Alisha accidentally called Glenn, not like you called him, 794 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 1: not Jesse. Do we think Greg Do we think the 795 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,800 Speaker 1: Jewels is trying to remain relevant by getting himself involved 796 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 1: in this so called feud? I think so he just 797 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 1: needs to go away, just leave them to it. No 798 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: one's interested anymore. I think I feel bad that I 799 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 1: inflated all these people. There's huge wedding and it flew 800 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: everyone else. I wasted everyone's time and wasted everyone's everything, 801 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: and they feel bad. You don't think I feel bad. 802 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: Now let's get into a new segment, which is Social Snapshot. Now. 803 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 1: It is taking a look at the most interesting stuff 804 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: that has happened on our news feeds this week. Now, 805 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,280 Speaker 1: Amy let's kick it off with some Michael Finch goss. Well, 806 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 1: Michael Finch took to YouTube after being absent for a 807 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 1: month and he basically said that he thinks that all 808 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: influencers should get a part time job. Now. This is 809 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: because he is working at a pop plant places that right, Yeah, 810 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,919 Speaker 1: So he was saying that being an influencer is such 811 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 1: a lonely job. So he started working for free at 812 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 1: his friend's place painting pop plants. So it actually looks 813 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 1: really fun. Yeah. Yeah, it's some beautiful pop plants and 814 00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 1: they're very cool. Well. I think it's great advice for 815 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 1: influencers though, because it gets them out there in the 816 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 1: real world. They're having social interactions with people, and they're 817 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,399 Speaker 1: probably appreciating and enjoying the time off that they have. 818 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: I think it's pretty cool that he's doing it for 819 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,439 Speaker 1: free as well. Well. Shane Grimman came out a few 820 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: months ago and she said that she would love to 821 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: work at a coffee shop just to be able to 822 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 1: talk to people and find out what, you know, normal 823 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 1: people are doing every day. Now, on the topic of 824 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: Shane Grimman, I have been loving her quarantine vlogs. They 825 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 1: are so raw and real and I feel excited because 826 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 1: I feel like perhaps Shany is back. I think that 827 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 1: she definitely is back. We've spoken about her in the 828 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,720 Speaker 1: past and said we would love to see more content 829 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: coming out, and she did open up in her recent 830 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: vlog and said that the reason she hasn't been sharing 831 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,760 Speaker 1: as much about her life is because she didn't really 832 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: know herself. And she feels like she's gotten to know 833 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 1: herself a bit better and it's going to start posting again, 834 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: which is great. 835 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 2: We are having a baby. 836 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: A baby. 837 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 2: Jeff's so weird to say that. 838 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 1: Now it's time for awkward Turtle. Now, Amy and Sophy, 839 00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: this involves both of you. Yeah, well, everyone who listens 840 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,879 Speaker 1: to this podcast were No. I'm obsessed with Facebook Marketplace 841 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:04,880 Speaker 1: and I was doing a bit of wheeling and dealing 842 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 1: on there last week, and I was leaving out an 843 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,320 Speaker 1: item for someone's mum to come and collect. So I 844 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: thought I'd send some photos of a secret spot where 845 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 1: I'd put this cup. Anyway, so I went to my 846 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 1: photos and I went to send these photos of the location, 847 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,799 Speaker 1: and I accidentally sent a video of Sophie and her 848 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 1: dog Archie. And you might think, oh, well, that's that's 849 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,840 Speaker 1: not too embarrassing this video. We're gonna put it on 850 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 1: our Instagram to share that. Yeah, it was. It was 851 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,720 Speaker 1: Sophie trying to put Arche's collar on. The real insight 852 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:40,879 Speaker 1: into what Sophie's like off my cause she literally You're 853 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 1: like it was everyone's ears. But she was like, oh 854 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:48,239 Speaker 1: my god, she's bite Amy. It was hilarious. And then 855 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 1: I'm there in the background, I sound like the biggest dickhead. 856 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, he's very spoiled. Now he's Insta famous, 857 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: and I just thought, how do I even explain this video? 858 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,319 Speaker 1: So I quickly wrote back to the girl, I was like, 859 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: I am so sorry, please ignore that video of my 860 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 1: sister's dog. And she wrote back was he's very cute. 861 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but I'm the one that's being stitched up here. 862 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,359 Speaker 1: I'm away screaming in this video in pain from being 863 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 1: bitten by Archie us teething at the moment, I thought 864 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,879 Speaker 1: there was a function now on Messenger where you can 865 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 1: remove a post that you've sent. Couldn't you know I 866 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 1: have done that. I went to remove it and it 867 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,759 Speaker 1: said remove for me, so it would only remove it 868 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 1: on that. I think you can do both. I believe 869 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 1: it's on Instagram. Well maybe so it's both. You know 870 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 1: it's on Facebook. You can remove Messenger. It didn't let me. Now, 871 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: I feel like this is something that happens a lot. 872 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 1: We'd love you to share your own awkward messages that 873 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,240 Speaker 1: you've accidentally sent people like I feel like it happens 874 00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: a lot. If I'm thinking about someone, perhaps I'm writing 875 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 1: about Amy, having a little bit about Amy, and I 876 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,400 Speaker 1: want to send it to Kate. Sometimes I automatically go 877 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 1: to send it to the person thinking about So I 878 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 1: must have been thinking about Archie when I sent that. Hap. Well, 879 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 1: I always get really nervous when I do have to 880 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 1: send a photo because you're scared you're going to click 881 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 1: on something else and send that. So, yeah, it's actually 882 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 1: happened to you, which is not good.
