WEBVTT - The Cancellation of Chloe Szep

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:04.559
<v Speaker 1>This is Outspoken. The podcast is not afraid to say exactly.

0:00:04.080 --> 0:00:05.000
<v Speaker 2>What you're thinking.

0:00:05.480 --> 0:00:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Our names are Amy Kate and Sophie Torba.

0:00:07.920 --> 0:00:09.480
<v Speaker 2>We're identical triplets, so.

0:00:09.520 --> 0:00:13.399
<v Speaker 1>We often don't have identical opinions, so sometimes things can

0:00:13.440 --> 0:00:19.680
<v Speaker 1>get heated. Outspoken covers all things reality TV, influencers, entertainment.

0:00:19.200 --> 0:00:20.560
<v Speaker 2>And issues facing with it.

0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:23.840
<v Speaker 3>That is so fat Thank.

0:00:23.680 --> 0:00:26.920
<v Speaker 2>You, welcome back to Outspoken.

0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:29.319
<v Speaker 1>Now. It is a very special day today. It is

0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:32.600
<v Speaker 1>Daffodil Day, and this is a day that's very close

0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:35.600
<v Speaker 1>to our hearts because we did lose our beautiful papa

0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:39.519
<v Speaker 1>to cancer in twenty nineteen. So it's very important for

0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:42.159
<v Speaker 1>everyone to get behind the course today because there's just

0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:44.560
<v Speaker 1>so many people living with cancer in their lives.

0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:44.839
<v Speaker 4>I know.

0:00:44.880 --> 0:00:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Daffidil Day has always been really special to us. I

0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:49.839
<v Speaker 1>always remember been primary school going and buying the Daffodil

0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Day bear because our year five teacher had cancer, so

0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:54.760
<v Speaker 1>it was a big day at our school.

0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:56.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and we were so honored to be asked by

0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:59.880
<v Speaker 4>the Cancer Cancel to be ambassadors for Daffidil Day this year,

0:01:00.200 --> 0:01:02.160
<v Speaker 4>so we jumped at the chance to get involved and

0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:04.600
<v Speaker 4>promote such a special day. It was quite funny. We

0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:06.400
<v Speaker 4>had to get our mum to take a photo of

0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:09.080
<v Speaker 4>us with some daffodils on the weekend and it ended

0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:11.280
<v Speaker 4>up being quite hilarious. We got tootored out by a

0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 4>lot of cars and we felt like our mum was

0:01:13.760 --> 0:01:15.679
<v Speaker 4>being a bit of a stage mum Chris Jenner with

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:17.760
<v Speaker 4>a big camera out, but it was It's all for

0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:19.560
<v Speaker 4>a good course, So thank you mum for taking that

0:01:19.600 --> 0:01:20.360

<v Speaker 4>as well.

0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:48.120
<v Speaker 1>Now posted on my Instagram about vaccines and pregnancy this morning,

0:01:48.240 --> 0:01:50.520
<v Speaker 1>and a number of Instagram.

0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:51.760
<v Speaker 2>Influencers fired right back.

0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 1>For God's sake, don't take your health advice from Instagram influencers.

0:01:56.440 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Chloe Zepp has officially been canceled. The twenty two year

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.320
<v Speaker 1>old wellness Warrior has lost twenty two thousand followers this

0:02:03.400 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 1>month after sharing alarming anti VAX's views across her social

0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:11.240
<v Speaker 1>media platforms. Just this week, her partner Mitchell Orville likened

0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:14.720
<v Speaker 1>hotel quarantine to prison and Chloe said her critics have

0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:17.919
<v Speaker 1>an illness worse than any virus. A new trend is

0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:21.680
<v Speaker 1>quickly growing momentum on TikTok, showing jen z as unfollowing

0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Chloe and also throwing out their ZEP activewear. Now, so

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.280
<v Speaker 1>before we get into the topic, can you give us

0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:30.280
<v Speaker 1>a little overview on who Chloe Zepp is well. Chloe

0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Zepp is quickly becoming one of Australia's most talked about

0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:37.880
<v Speaker 1>wellness influencers. She runs a string of businesses, including fitness

0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:41.359
<v Speaker 1>label ZEP and wellness platform well Web. Now. We were

0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:44.079
<v Speaker 1>first introduced to a fifteen year old Chloe back in

0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:47.600
<v Speaker 1>twenty fourteen when she appeared in her Best Friend at

0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:50.760
<v Speaker 1>Shiny Grimman's blogs, and it was her relationship with fellow

0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:54.639
<v Speaker 1>influencer Mitchell Orvil which quickly became the focus of her

0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:58.360
<v Speaker 1>YouTube channel. So very soon into their relationship, she moved

0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:01.240
<v Speaker 1>from Brisbane to Melbourne to live with Mitch and his family,

0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:04.519
<v Speaker 1>And for those who don't know, Mitchell grew his online

0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>following through his pranks channel, which was called Angry Dad. Nowadays,

0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:12.120
<v Speaker 1>the pair share a YouTube channel together called Chloe and Mitch,

0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:15.760
<v Speaker 1>where they document their daily life. But if we rewind

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:18.120
<v Speaker 1>to only a year ago, Chloe and Mitch were in

0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:21.200
<v Speaker 1>a very different position. They were somewhat of a golden

0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:24.080
<v Speaker 1>couple of YouTube. They were attracting a lot of praise

0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:27.480
<v Speaker 1>and attention online for being so open about their struggles

0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:31.000
<v Speaker 1>and traumas, and followers really loved how transparent Chloe and

0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:34.520
<v Speaker 1>Mitch were about their relationship struggles. They even documented their

0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:37.280
<v Speaker 1>first breakup and Mitch moving out of the house, and

0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:40.800
<v Speaker 1>they've also spoken so candidly about their miscarriage at the

0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:44.360
<v Speaker 1>start of twenty twenty and also their pregnancy journey with Artie.

0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:47.240
<v Speaker 1>And Mitch also garnered a lot of praise and admiration

0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:50.480
<v Speaker 1>for opening up about his drug addiction and also sharing

0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:53.480
<v Speaker 1>his recovery along the way. And I feel like the

0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:56.000
<v Speaker 1>reason we are so disheartened by what is going on

0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:58.800
<v Speaker 1>at the moment is we have been so invested in

0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:00.800
<v Speaker 1>their story, and I feel like we been rooting for

0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:03.280
<v Speaker 1>them along the way. So I think that's why we're

0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:05.920
<v Speaker 1>all feeling a little bit blindsided by what's been going

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:08.560
<v Speaker 1>on the past couple of months now. Kate, for those

0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 1>who haven't listened to previous episodes, which we will link

0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:12.960
<v Speaker 1>in the show notes, can you give us a bit

0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 1>of a rundown of where this canceling is coming from.

0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:16.880
<v Speaker 2>I feel like this.

0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:19.920
<v Speaker 4>Cancelation has been coming for a while now. So Chloe

0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:23.279
<v Speaker 4>has been caught out liking anti VAX's posts. One of

0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:26.680
<v Speaker 4>the posts included when a Gold Coast hairdresser posted that

0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:30.239
<v Speaker 4>she was going to ban vaccinated people from entering her salon.

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:34.279
<v Speaker 4>Chloe has also supported lockdown protests on her Instagram story.

0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:36.839
<v Speaker 4>She's been caught out not wearing a mask in public

0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:40.040
<v Speaker 4>despite them being mandatory in the Gold Coast, and Mitch

0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:43.080
<v Speaker 4>has also been caught out congregating in large groups at

0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:45.479
<v Speaker 4>the beach when they're meant to be social distancing. And

0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:48.360
<v Speaker 4>Chloe has also said on her Instagram story that people

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:51.520
<v Speaker 4>that criticize her for her anti science views have an

0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:54.360
<v Speaker 4>illness worse than any virus going around now.

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:57.120
<v Speaker 1>When it comes to cancelation, I feel like the numbers

0:04:57.160 --> 0:04:59.960
<v Speaker 1>speak for themselves. Amy, can you talk us through where

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Chloe's current follower count stands well. Chloe is rapidly losing

0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:06.960
<v Speaker 1>followers by the day. Over the past thirty days, she's

0:05:06.960 --> 0:05:09.880
<v Speaker 1>lost twenty two thousand, five hundred and thirty followers and

0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:13.120
<v Speaker 1>that's three point five percent of her following. So currently

0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:16.919
<v Speaker 1>Chloe still has six hundred and fifty seven thousand followers.

0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:20.040
<v Speaker 1>Mitch has lost five thousand, seven hundred and sixty followers

0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:22.080
<v Speaker 1>in the last thirty days and he currently has a

0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:24.919
<v Speaker 1>following of two hundred and eighty seven thousand, and in

0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:27.560
<v Speaker 1>the last thirty days, he's lost one point nine six

0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:30.720
<v Speaker 1>percent of his following. As for Chloe and Mitch's family

0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:33.720
<v Speaker 1>YouTube channel, they have lost two thousand subscribers in the

0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:37.120
<v Speaker 1>last thirty days, with their subscribe account currently sitting at

0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:39.800
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and forty two thousand and When you take

0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:42.800
<v Speaker 1>a look at Chloe's active where brand account, zep it

0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:46.120
<v Speaker 1>has lost two eight hundred and twenty thousand followers in

0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:48.240
<v Speaker 1>the past thirty days, which is a huge hit for

0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:49.880
<v Speaker 1>a business Instagram account.

0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:52.880
<v Speaker 4>I do feel like while these numbers sound big, it's

0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:56.240
<v Speaker 4>not really When you do put into consideration the percentage

0:05:56.279 --> 0:05:59.159
<v Speaker 4>of their following that they have lost. I really would

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:01.840
<v Speaker 4>like to urge any one who is still following Mitch

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:05.520
<v Speaker 4>and Chloe that disagrees with their stance to unfollow them,

0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.040
<v Speaker 4>because this is the only way we're going to take

0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:09.760
<v Speaker 4>that power away from them.

0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:11.840
<v Speaker 1>It's so true, and I think that's what people are

0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:15.200
<v Speaker 1>realizing that people power does work. So not only is

0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Chloe losing thousands of followers by the day, but her

0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:20.640
<v Speaker 1>active where brand ZEP is also taking a big hit.

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:23.719
<v Speaker 1>There is a new TikTok trend where jen zets are

0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:27.640
<v Speaker 1>creating videos of themselves unfollowing Chloe or throwing away their

0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:30.680
<v Speaker 1>ZEP active where in some videos the women are drawing

0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:33.440
<v Speaker 1>over the ZEP branding or they're threatening to burn the

0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:36.719
<v Speaker 1>clothes in an attempt to boycott the brand totally. It

0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.000
<v Speaker 1>seems this trend was actually spurred on though, by a

0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:42.520
<v Speaker 1>TikTok Chloe created herself. Now, Kate, what was this TikTok?

0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:43.039
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:45.880
<v Speaker 4>So on Saturday, Chloe shared a video to TikTok with

0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:48.720
<v Speaker 4>the caption how to continue on your day even if

0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:51.359
<v Speaker 4>you don't agree with something Now. In the video, she

0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:54.840
<v Speaker 4>shows herself outside her Gold Coast mansion and she marches

0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.520
<v Speaker 4>into the shop with her arms flailing and looks at

0:06:57.520 --> 0:06:59.960
<v Speaker 4>the camera and then marches out swinging her arms again.

0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:02.440
<v Speaker 4>So many followers have said that the video was the

0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:07.160
<v Speaker 4>final straw and has insulted people genuinely concerned about public health.

0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:10.400
<v Speaker 4>What do you guys think this type of video does

0:07:10.440 --> 0:07:13.240
<v Speaker 4>for Chloe's Active where brand? Obviously we're seeing that people

0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:16.480
<v Speaker 4>are beginning to destroy their zet merch, But do you

0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 4>guys think this will have a lasting effect on her brand?

0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:22.080
<v Speaker 1>I think it will because I've seen people also filming

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.920
<v Speaker 1>videos where they're actually unsubscribing from her mailing list. I

0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:28.920
<v Speaker 1>just don't understand why she felt the need to post

0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 1>this TikTok at all. It's like all of the Orville family,

0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:34.000
<v Speaker 1>they keep jumping on social media. I feel like, what

0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:37.040
<v Speaker 1>do they expect the outcome is going to be? Personally,

0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:40.080
<v Speaker 1>I would be humiliated to walk around with any ZEP

0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:41.800
<v Speaker 1>active where on. Even if I was going for a

0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:43.480
<v Speaker 1>walk down the road, I wouldn't want to be seen

0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:46.240
<v Speaker 1>in it because these days, what you wear does really

0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:48.760
<v Speaker 1>reflect your views. So if I was walking around in

0:07:48.800 --> 0:07:50.520
<v Speaker 1>that sort of get up, I would assume people would

0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:52.680
<v Speaker 1>think I was an anti vaxer. I actually have seen

0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:55.240
<v Speaker 1>videos on TikTok as well where people have had their

0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:58.120
<v Speaker 1>zet parcels arrive and they just kick it along the ground.

0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:01.240
<v Speaker 1>So these are obviously people who who are big fans

0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:03.360
<v Speaker 1>of Chloe Zep, I mean so much so that they've

0:08:03.360 --> 0:08:05.880
<v Speaker 1>bought her active where within the last couple of weeks

0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:08.200
<v Speaker 1>and they've turned Yeah, I know a lot of people

0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:10.880
<v Speaker 1>complaining that you couldn't actually return the gear.

0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:13.480
<v Speaker 4>Because they've obviously placed an order and then found out

0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 4>about her anti lockdown, anti vax stance. It is interesting though,

0:08:17.640 --> 0:08:20.080
<v Speaker 4>because in the last couple of days, Chloe has actually

0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:23.080
<v Speaker 4>launched a new drop of her Zep active wear, so

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.760
<v Speaker 4>she's introduced these new flared pants and I had to

0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:28.560
<v Speaker 4>look at the website because normally her gear sells out

0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 4>within minutes. I remember her bike shorts were just such

0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:34.720
<v Speaker 4>a hot item. However, now a couple of days later,

0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:38.920
<v Speaker 4>she still has white and black pants both still in stock.

0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:41.880
<v Speaker 1>I think the thing that's so unfortunate for her is

0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:44.760
<v Speaker 1>that it's named after her last name, of course, being Zep,

0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:47.320
<v Speaker 1>and I don't think too many young women are going

0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:49.840
<v Speaker 1>to want to be a walking billboard for her. I

0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:52.959
<v Speaker 1>think that at the moment, so many young Australian women

0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:56.120
<v Speaker 1>are so passionate about vaccinations and about getting out of

0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:57.000
<v Speaker 1>this situation.

0:08:57.360 --> 0:08:59.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so if you so much so that I saw

0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:02.280
<v Speaker 4>Tarllie Smyth actually posted a photo of herself wearing a

0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:05.600
<v Speaker 4>brand that was called Vaxed and she was saying, I'm

0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:06.600
<v Speaker 4>proud to wear this?

0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:11.160
<v Speaker 2>Is that coming off stacks? Is that well? This good

0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 2>brand alignment?

0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:15.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you guys think that Chloe even considered the launch

0:09:15.320 --> 0:09:17.440
<v Speaker 1>of her active wearline in terms of putting that video

0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:19.400
<v Speaker 1>up and what bad publicity it was.

0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:21.000
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a case.

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:23.000
<v Speaker 4>Similar to what we've talked about with Sarah's Day, that

0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:26.240
<v Speaker 4>they surround themselves with yes people and it seems like

0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.720
<v Speaker 4>a lot of people in their group and their family

0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:30.840
<v Speaker 4>all believe the same thing. So it's become a bit

0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:33.760
<v Speaker 4>of an echo chamber. So I honestly think that they

0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:37.920
<v Speaker 4>are quite removed from reality about what everyday Australians are

0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:41.960
<v Speaker 4>thinking and sort of seeing only things discussed online that

0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:44.880
<v Speaker 4>they believe. You know, they follow certain hashtags and certain

0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:47.000
<v Speaker 4>groups that they probably think, oh, people are going to

0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:49.640
<v Speaker 4>agree with us. Do you think as well, that they thought,

0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:52.439
<v Speaker 4>Oh well, bad publicity is also good publicity in a

0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:55.040
<v Speaker 4>way if everyone's talking about you, Because even we saw

0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:58.040
<v Speaker 4>with Sarah's Day's active wear line with White Fox Boutique

0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:01.200
<v Speaker 4>that still continued to sell out despite all the controversy

0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:04.080
<v Speaker 4>she had with that certain video clip. I do like

0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:06.960
<v Speaker 4>your theory, but unfortunately, I don't even think that that

0:10:07.040 --> 0:10:09.440
<v Speaker 4>has crossed their mind. I think that, as Kate said,

0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:12.080
<v Speaker 4>they are surrounded by a bunch of yes people. I'm

0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:13.880
<v Speaker 4>sure all the people that gather with them in the

0:10:13.880 --> 0:10:16.120
<v Speaker 4>morning at the beach are properly cheering them on, saying

0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:18.040
<v Speaker 4>this is a great idea, But I don't think they're

0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:20.480
<v Speaker 4>the people they should be taking advice from. So let's

0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:22.880
<v Speaker 4>move on to the next controversy because this week has

0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:25.960
<v Speaker 4>been a big week for Chloe and Mitch. So on Sunday,

0:10:26.440 --> 0:10:29.560
<v Speaker 4>Mitch and Chloe shared a vlog to their joint YouTube channel,

0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:33.400
<v Speaker 4>which has caused, as I said, more controversy. So the video,

0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:37.080
<v Speaker 4>called Family Life and Deep Talks, has received over ninety

0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:40.880
<v Speaker 4>thousand views. Now it's also received a lot of dislikes.

0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:43.839
<v Speaker 4>I haven't actually seen this many dislikes on a YouTube video.

0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:44.080
<v Speaker 2>For a while.

0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:47.120
<v Speaker 4>So it's had three point one thousand dislikes and two

0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:52.439
<v Speaker 4>point four thousand likes since the time of recording this episode. Now,

0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:55.240
<v Speaker 4>at the start of the video, Mitch revealed his sister

0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:59.120
<v Speaker 4>Hannah is struggling in hotel quarantine. So Hannah Orville really

0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:01.559
<v Speaker 4>is an influencer in her own right. She has two

0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:05.360
<v Speaker 4>hundred and seventy nine thousand followers and she is currently

0:11:05.360 --> 0:11:09.360
<v Speaker 4>in hotel quarantine after traveling to Melbourne. Now, Hannah made

0:11:09.400 --> 0:11:11.880
<v Speaker 4>the permanent move to the Gold Coast from her hometown

0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:16.280
<v Speaker 4>of Melbourne in early July. So last year, Mitch's parents

0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:19.240
<v Speaker 4>relocated to the Gold Coast during the Melbourne lockdown, and

0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:21.960
<v Speaker 4>Hannah was also able to escape the Melbourne lockdown last

0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:25.400
<v Speaker 4>year as she was dating AFL player Cameron Zaha, so

0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:28.040
<v Speaker 4>she was able to travel to Queensland and join the

0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:31.640
<v Speaker 4>AFL bubble. So in this YouTube video, Mitch referred to

0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:35.559
<v Speaker 4>hotel quarantine as hotel prison, and he said that Hannah

0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:38.160
<v Speaker 4>didn't have a balcony nor access to fresh air for

0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:41.080
<v Speaker 4>two weeks. He also revealed Hannah has been suffering from

0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:43.200
<v Speaker 4>an eating disorder for the last six months and has

0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:45.320
<v Speaker 4>gotten to the point where it's been very scary for

0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:48.640
<v Speaker 4>the family. Now, Mitch explained, Hannah received a call from

0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:51.680
<v Speaker 4>the Public Health Department checking in on her, and she

0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:54.480
<v Speaker 4>confided with this individual that she was struggling, not being

0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:57.840
<v Speaker 4>able to exercise, and apparently the health worker said to

0:11:57.880 --> 0:12:01.360
<v Speaker 4>her to eat less. Now, Mitch went on to slam

0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:04.200
<v Speaker 4>Australia's healthcare system, and we'll throw to a clip of

0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:04.880
<v Speaker 4>what he said.

0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:11.720
<v Speaker 5>Currently, my sister is doing a hotel prison. In fourteen days.

0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:14.960
<v Speaker 5>She landed one of the hotels with no balcony, no

0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:18.559
<v Speaker 5>fresh air, can't even open a window. Two weeks anyway,

0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:22.559
<v Speaker 5>not the point. Hannah has been suffering from an eating

0:12:22.600 --> 0:12:24.760
<v Speaker 5>disorder for the good part of the last six months,

0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:27.240
<v Speaker 5>to the point where it got so scary that like

0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:29.280
<v Speaker 5>there was a lot like I don't even need to

0:12:29.280 --> 0:12:31.560
<v Speaker 5>go into the details about it anyway, long story shot,

0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:36.360
<v Speaker 5>very scary. Anyway, how is this? She faced timing, bawling

0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:38.120
<v Speaker 5>her eyes out, and I answered, and I was like,

0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:41.280
<v Speaker 5>how are you doing? She's like, oh, not that good?

0:12:41.320 --> 0:12:43.160
<v Speaker 5>I said, why? She said, I just got a call

0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:46.600
<v Speaker 5>from the Public Health Department. So the people that call

0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:53.320
<v Speaker 5>in on people in so they've called her to check

0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:55.360
<v Speaker 5>in on her and see how her mental health is

0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:58.680
<v Speaker 5>doing and she said it wall clearly due to a

0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:03.760
<v Speaker 5>fresh air can find space eating disorder. I'm struggling. My

0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:05.760
<v Speaker 5>mental's not great. You know, I'm doing the best that

0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:08.000
<v Speaker 5>I could, but you know, not being able to exercise

0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:09.800
<v Speaker 5>and stuff like that to the best of my ability

0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:16.040
<v Speaker 5>is playing with my mental His advice was eat less.

0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:22.280
<v Speaker 5>If you can't exercise, eat less. She's got an eating disorder.

0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:27.000
<v Speaker 5>This is where we're at, hey, this is where we're

0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:33.160
<v Speaker 5>at as a society. It's all about protecting our health. Anyway,

0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:36.240
<v Speaker 5>I'm exhausted from talking about it. I think everyone's very

0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:38.400
<v Speaker 5>clear on my eyes down. So yeah, now I'm going

0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:41.720
<v Speaker 5>to go do some shopping and take a little bundle

0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:43.360
<v Speaker 5>of stuff over to Hanning because clearly she's going to

0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:45.440
<v Speaker 5>need the extra hand. Thanks to the fucking public Health

0:13:45.440 --> 0:13:49.000
<v Speaker 5>Department doing the fucking miraculous, wonderful job of encouraging Aaron

0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:51.439
<v Speaker 5>checking in on her mental health. Thanks for that, mate,

0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:53.320
<v Speaker 5>Leave that job to me, fucking dipshit.

0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:57.360
<v Speaker 1>What I've noticed in a lot of Mitch's responses over

0:13:57.400 --> 0:14:00.320
<v Speaker 1>the past couple of weeks is a very aggressive home

0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:03.360
<v Speaker 1>we haven't really heard before. There's a lot of anger

0:14:03.440 --> 0:14:05.960
<v Speaker 1>being directed there in that video. It's almost kind of

0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.920
<v Speaker 1>scary to watch. The thing is, I can understand in

0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:11.439
<v Speaker 1>a way where he's coming from, because it was very

0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:14.840
<v Speaker 1>irresponsible advice that was given to his sister Hannah, And

0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I think in that instance, he was being quite defensive

0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:20.760
<v Speaker 1>because he really cares about her health. And a lot

0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:22.640
<v Speaker 1>of people have come out and said that they actually

0:14:22.640 --> 0:14:24.680
<v Speaker 1>didn't have an issue with what Mitch said there, but

0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:26.440
<v Speaker 1>also a lot of people have come out and said

0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:28.200
<v Speaker 1>that they do have an issue. Do you guys think

0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:28.840
<v Speaker 1>he went too far?

0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:29.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Amy.

0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:32.480
<v Speaker 4>The thing is, I think everyone understands that it's very

0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:35.040
<v Speaker 4>sad that Hannah is suffering with an eating disorder, and

0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:38.400
<v Speaker 4>of course the advice that that healthcare worker allegedly provided

0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:42.080
<v Speaker 4>was unacceptable, but it isn't acceptable.

0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:43.000
<v Speaker 2>To slam the whole system.

0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:47.120
<v Speaker 4>The healthcare system has been working so incredibly hard. Healthcare

0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:49.320
<v Speaker 4>workers have been putting their lives on the line to

0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:53.040
<v Speaker 4>help Australians in this unprecedented time, and I think it

0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:56.440
<v Speaker 4>was very tone death of Mitch to call the whole

0:14:56.480 --> 0:14:59.080
<v Speaker 4>system out. I mean, I can see why healthcare workers

0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:01.240
<v Speaker 4>would be extreme offended by that.

0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:04.840
<v Speaker 1>Behavior, and while I also sympathize with what Hannah's going through.

0:15:04.880 --> 0:15:06.280
<v Speaker 1>I think we also have to point out that she

0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:08.640
<v Speaker 1>did choose to travel knowing that there would be the

0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:11.840
<v Speaker 1>chance she would be placed in hotel quarantine. That's what

0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:13.680
<v Speaker 1>I didn't really understand either.

0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:15.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Well, I did see this comment on Chloe and

0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:18.840
<v Speaker 4>Mitch's YouTube video and could not agree more with it.

0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:21.360
<v Speaker 4>So the comment said, I find it quite ironic that

0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:24.000
<v Speaker 4>you are having a go at the worker publicly because

0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:26.880
<v Speaker 4>he gave advice on a subject he wasn't educated on,

0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:30.200
<v Speaker 4>when that's exactly what you and Chloe are doing. That's

0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:33.600
<v Speaker 4>why we are so annoyed with you. You are uneducated

0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:36.640
<v Speaker 4>on health and public safety matters, so please stop spreading

0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:39.920
<v Speaker 4>anti lockdown and anti vax messages. What did you guys

0:15:39.920 --> 0:15:40.800
<v Speaker 4>think about that comment?

0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:43.480
<v Speaker 1>I think they're spot on. I found Mitch's stance regarding

0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:47.440
<v Speaker 1>the healthcare workers apparent comments pretty hypocritical, considering he and

0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Chloe used their platforms to push things like water detops

0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:55.360
<v Speaker 1>and juice cleanses, as well as their emphasis on excessive exercise.

0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:58.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. I think that's what everyone is so frustrated about.

0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:01.000
<v Speaker 4>This complete hypocrisy, and it seems like only once it

0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:04.600
<v Speaker 4>really personally affects them that they arc up and get

0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:07.360
<v Speaker 4>really aggressive. So I did not wish COVID on anyone,

0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:09.080
<v Speaker 4>but it would be very interesting to see if their

0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:12.400
<v Speaker 4>stance completely changed if someone in their family was affected.

0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:12.840
<v Speaker 2>By the pandemic.

0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:15.800
<v Speaker 1>Well later in the video, Chloe and Mitch also cause

0:16:15.880 --> 0:16:19.560
<v Speaker 1>more controversy by openly not wearing masks while out shopping.

0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:24.120
<v Speaker 1>So Mitch filmed Chloe's shopping in Kmart unmasked and awkwardly,

0:16:24.160 --> 0:16:27.920
<v Speaker 1>everyone in the background is wearing a mask. So masks

0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:31.080
<v Speaker 1>are currently mandatory in indoor areas on the Gold Coast,

0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:33.640
<v Speaker 1>and we do not believe Chloe or Mitch a medically

0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:34.400
<v Speaker 1>exempt from.

0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:35.080
<v Speaker 2>Wearing a mask.

0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:38.480
<v Speaker 1>I think what was even more disturbing in his video,

0:16:38.600 --> 0:16:41.520
<v Speaker 1>apart from the non mask wearing, was the fact that

0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:45.880
<v Speaker 1>they showed their child's pooh and the belief that I fell.

0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I was like, what is going on? I was eating

0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:50.360
<v Speaker 1>my dinner watching the Yeah, not even I mean, what

0:16:50.400 --> 0:16:52.680
<v Speaker 1>about poor Artie when he grows up and he knows

0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:56.560
<v Speaker 1>poo's whoo in the toilet? I mean, I totally understand

0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:58.640
<v Speaker 1>as a parent being proud of the first time your

0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:00.080
<v Speaker 1>child goes to the toilet, but I do so I

0:17:00.160 --> 0:17:02.840
<v Speaker 1>think it's a private matter that you don't share with

0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:03.320
<v Speaker 1>the rest.

0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:03.640
<v Speaker 5>Of the world.

0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:05.880
<v Speaker 1>It's a prime example of them sharing way too much

0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:07.560
<v Speaker 1>when they should just shut up sometimes.

0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:09.080
<v Speaker 2>And I do think Artie.

0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:11.639
<v Speaker 1>Is a big reason why people continue following Chloe and

0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:14.359
<v Speaker 1>Mitch's absolutely adorable and I think that people love to

0:17:14.400 --> 0:17:17.160
<v Speaker 1>see them as parents. But I mean, it's just gone

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:19.800
<v Speaker 1>too far at the moment to continue supporting them.

0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:21.280
<v Speaker 2>So it's not only.

0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:23.920
<v Speaker 4>On TikTok that Chloe is receiving backclass.

0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:25.440
<v Speaker 2>She's also been.

0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:29.840
<v Speaker 4>Called out on Instagram by Ozzie Influencer's Opinion. Now this

0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:33.000
<v Speaker 4>page went on a five month hiatus, but it's back

0:17:33.359 --> 0:17:38.560
<v Speaker 4>to call out Antifax's influencers spreading misinformation. So Ozsie Influencer's

0:17:38.680 --> 0:17:41.800
<v Speaker 4>Opinion called out Chloe for losing followers and for following

0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:46.760
<v Speaker 4>questionable hashtags, including hashtag truth seekers. Now, if you're not

0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:49.639
<v Speaker 4>familiar with this hashtag, it is an anti vaxxer and

0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:52.120
<v Speaker 4>COVID conspiracy theory hashtag.

0:17:52.600 --> 0:17:53.760
<v Speaker 2>Chloe was also.

0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:57.760
<v Speaker 4>Found to be following a hashtag called hashtag spaces fake.

0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Is it just me? Oh, I do not follow any

0:18:00.240 --> 0:18:02.919
<v Speaker 1>hashtags I don't understand as a huge influencer why you

0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:05.440
<v Speaker 1>would actually follow these controversial hashtags.

0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:08.080
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I didn't know you actually could follow hashtags,

0:18:08.359 --> 0:18:11.399
<v Speaker 4>would be honest. Now, a page that Chloe is also

0:18:11.480 --> 0:18:14.520
<v Speaker 4>following is called seek the Truth and this is a

0:18:14.520 --> 0:18:19.280
<v Speaker 4>anti vax and COVID conspiracy theory page and interestingly, Ozzie

0:18:19.320 --> 0:18:22.919
<v Speaker 4>Influencer Opinions shared the m Davies and Tammy Hembroke are

0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:24.120
<v Speaker 4>both following the page.

0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Now, since Tammy has been.

0:18:26.200 --> 0:18:29.040
<v Speaker 4>Called out for following this page, she did share in

0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:31.879
<v Speaker 4>her YouTube comments that she is not anti vax and

0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:34.280
<v Speaker 4>that she is actually booked in to get her vaccine,

0:18:34.280 --> 0:18:36.720
<v Speaker 4>so that is great to hear, and since they were

0:18:36.760 --> 0:18:39.359
<v Speaker 4>called out, both of them have unfollowed the page.

0:18:39.520 --> 0:18:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm absolutely living for the fact that Ozzie Influencer Opinions

0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:44.760
<v Speaker 1>is back. I feel like it's feeling a bit of

0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:46.360
<v Speaker 1>a void that Celebrity.

0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:46.879
<v Speaker 2>Spellcheck last if.

0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:49.120
<v Speaker 1>I was thinking that, can you imagine if celeb spell

0:18:49.200 --> 0:18:52.120
<v Speaker 1>check was around right now, how much trouble they would

0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:55.840
<v Speaker 1>be staring up. I did love that Ozzi Influencer Opinions

0:18:56.119 --> 0:18:58.919
<v Speaker 1>went back to the archives and shared a video that

0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:01.840
<v Speaker 1>really did not aid well. So it showed Mitch back

0:19:01.920 --> 0:19:05.399
<v Speaker 1>in March twenty twenty, and he was urging people to

0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:08.439
<v Speaker 1>take part in social distancing and for young people to

0:19:08.520 --> 0:19:12.200
<v Speaker 1>protect the vulnerable people in society. Let's throw to the clip.

0:19:12.400 --> 0:19:15.639
<v Speaker 5>It's been fine, Like honestly, I'm not even going to

0:19:15.720 --> 0:19:18.240
<v Speaker 5>really complain, Like it's just been a bit of quality

0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:24.520
<v Speaker 5>time at home. I've found activities to do, been training hard. Still, Yeah,

0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:27.000
<v Speaker 5>I'm you know, I think we've been asked to sit

0:19:27.040 --> 0:19:29.800
<v Speaker 5>at home and stay on the couch. Our ancestors were

0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:32.919
<v Speaker 5>asked to pick up a gun and go to war perspective,

0:19:32.960 --> 0:19:35.600
<v Speaker 5>and I think that's so fucking true. And I know, like,

0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:39.600
<v Speaker 5>obviously the reason that we're social distancing is because we're

0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:42.199
<v Speaker 5>in a fortunate position and we can We don't have

0:19:42.240 --> 0:19:43.639
<v Speaker 5>to go to work, we don't have to do our stuff.

0:19:43.680 --> 0:19:46.120
<v Speaker 5>So nurses, school teachers, all that stuff, all those people

0:19:46.119 --> 0:19:48.879
<v Speaker 5>that literally have to go to work and stuff. Obviously

0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:52.280
<v Speaker 5>you can't social distance, so that's not a problem. But

0:19:52.720 --> 0:19:55.480
<v Speaker 5>I guess if you're in a fortunate enough position where

0:19:55.520 --> 0:19:58.919
<v Speaker 5>you can do your part, I feel like you know

0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:02.760
<v Speaker 5>too much of this attitude of I'm young, fit, healthy,

0:20:02.920 --> 0:20:04.960
<v Speaker 5>I like, you fuck about the virus. It's not you

0:20:05.320 --> 0:20:07.040
<v Speaker 5>that you have to worry about. It's you getting the

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:10.159
<v Speaker 5>virus and giving it to people around you, babies, kids,

0:20:10.320 --> 0:20:14.359
<v Speaker 5>elderly people like it's just it pisces me off, but

0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:15.120
<v Speaker 5>what can you do?

0:20:15.480 --> 0:20:18.640
<v Speaker 1>I do remember watching these youtubes and really enjoying them

0:20:18.720 --> 0:20:22.399
<v Speaker 1>during the lockdown period, So it is crazy to see

0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:25.679
<v Speaker 1>in twelve months the type of content they're now sharing.

0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:29.200
<v Speaker 4>Well, what an absolute shift of attitude as well. It's

0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:31.080
<v Speaker 4>absolutely crazy.

0:20:31.160 --> 0:20:33.080
<v Speaker 1>And the fact that they pointed out that they are

0:20:33.080 --> 0:20:35.840
<v Speaker 1>in a privileged position where they can happily work at

0:20:35.840 --> 0:20:38.520
<v Speaker 1>home still make money and urging people to let steal

0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:40.760
<v Speaker 1>it all together. As you say, how can you switch

0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 1>so much in a year? I also love that The

0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:46.720
<v Speaker 1>Ossie Influencer Opinion Instagram page also pointed out the complete

0:20:46.800 --> 0:20:50.960
<v Speaker 1>hypocrisy from Chloe and her sister Kate surrounding a lot

0:20:50.960 --> 0:20:54.320
<v Speaker 1>of the medical procedures they have had done so Ozsie

0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:57.879
<v Speaker 1>Influencer Opinions shared a screenshop that revealed Chloe and Kate

0:20:58.040 --> 0:21:01.600
<v Speaker 1>follow a page that sells illegal tanning injections, and the

0:21:01.600 --> 0:21:04.520
<v Speaker 1>account also shared a video from four Corners from back

0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:08.000
<v Speaker 1>in twenty eighteen, when Kate zep was interviewed about her

0:21:08.040 --> 0:21:12.240
<v Speaker 1>cosmetic injectibles and surgery. Chloe also featured in the segment

0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:14.520
<v Speaker 1>as the show took clips from a video she shared

0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:17.199
<v Speaker 1>on YouTube of hair getting botox and filler when she

0:21:17.320 --> 0:21:20.840
<v Speaker 1>was just eighteen. And it's so interesting because Chloe and Kate,

0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:23.440
<v Speaker 1>they seem happy to compromise their health to have a

0:21:23.560 --> 0:21:26.440
<v Speaker 1>tan or bigger lips, but when it comes to protecting

0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 1>the public health of others, it doesn't seem to be

0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:31.639
<v Speaker 1>quite an issue. They don't care what's in the products.

0:21:31.920 --> 0:21:34.720
<v Speaker 4>I did really enjoy a meme that Mia Friedman shared.

0:21:34.800 --> 0:21:36.320
<v Speaker 4>It was a post that says that you're a fan

0:21:36.359 --> 0:21:39.200
<v Speaker 4>of injectibles but scared of vaccines, and then it says

0:21:39.240 --> 0:21:42.320
<v Speaker 4>anti wrinkle injections are derived from the world's most deadly

0:21:42.359 --> 0:21:45.280
<v Speaker 4>toxins from bacteria, and the liquid that we use to

0:21:45.280 --> 0:21:48.320
<v Speaker 4>dissolve filler is from testicles, and that's sheep balls, to

0:21:48.359 --> 0:21:48.879
<v Speaker 4>be precise.

0:21:48.960 --> 0:21:50.520
<v Speaker 2>So it's quite hilarious when you do.

0:21:50.560 --> 0:21:53.840
<v Speaker 4>See people who are anti vaxx and clearly have got

0:21:53.880 --> 0:21:56.000
<v Speaker 4>a lot of filler in their face.

0:21:56.160 --> 0:21:57.800
<v Speaker 2>Being quite hypocritical about it all.

0:21:57.960 --> 0:21:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Now seems like this is all becoming a bit of

0:21:59.840 --> 0:22:03.680
<v Speaker 1>a family affair because Mitch's mum Sharon Orville has also

0:22:03.920 --> 0:22:06.679
<v Speaker 1>weighed in on the action. On Tuesday, she shared an

0:22:06.680 --> 0:22:10.280
<v Speaker 1>eight minute video called I Stand for Australians, and Sharon

0:22:10.320 --> 0:22:13.960
<v Speaker 1>said she was inspired by former NBA player Andrew Boget's

0:22:14.000 --> 0:22:16.760
<v Speaker 1>video and had found the strength to finally speak her

0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:19.480
<v Speaker 1>truth and stand up for people who need it most.

0:22:19.560 --> 0:22:22.480
<v Speaker 1>Right now, so, Sharon said that she wanted everyone to

0:22:22.520 --> 0:22:25.920
<v Speaker 1>stop being divided and stand together, even with differing opinions,

0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:29.360
<v Speaker 1>to find a solution to the country's problems now. Controversially,

0:22:29.440 --> 0:22:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Sharon said that the current solution was worse than the

0:22:32.480 --> 0:22:34.840
<v Speaker 1>problem and that lockdowns didn't work.

0:22:35.240 --> 0:22:36.119
<v Speaker 2>This is what she said.

0:22:36.560 --> 0:22:39.679
<v Speaker 3>The way we are dealing with this situation with this

0:22:39.840 --> 0:22:45.560
<v Speaker 3>virus isn't working. It's proving not to work because our

0:22:45.680 --> 0:22:48.600
<v Speaker 3>numbers are going up. We're getting shut down for longer

0:22:48.640 --> 0:22:54.680
<v Speaker 3>and longer periods. We're getting worse things happened to us

0:22:55.119 --> 0:23:00.199
<v Speaker 3>where it's not getting better, it's getting worse. Okay. I

0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:03.679
<v Speaker 3>want to do is say to you all, how about

0:23:03.880 --> 0:23:08.880
<v Speaker 3>instead of attacking each other or forcing opinions on each other,

0:23:09.520 --> 0:23:12.639
<v Speaker 3>we allow each other to have our opinion, to choose

0:23:12.680 --> 0:23:16.720
<v Speaker 3>to get vaccinated or choose not to get vaccinated. Everyone's

0:23:16.760 --> 0:23:19.080
<v Speaker 3>in a different place. I have an autoimmune disease, so

0:23:19.320 --> 0:23:22.440
<v Speaker 3>my choice on getting vaccinated or not vaccinated is different

0:23:22.440 --> 0:23:25.720
<v Speaker 3>to somebody else's choice. But we do have a choice.

0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:29.920
<v Speaker 3>We should have a choice, and I think that we

0:23:29.960 --> 0:23:31.240
<v Speaker 3>should all support each other.

0:23:31.400 --> 0:23:32.600
<v Speaker 1>What did you think of this video?

0:23:32.600 --> 0:23:35.000
<v Speaker 4>Okay, well, I think it's quite clear that Sharon is

0:23:35.040 --> 0:23:38.879
<v Speaker 4>not thinking critically or understanding the complexities of this situation

0:23:39.000 --> 0:23:39.320
<v Speaker 4>at all.

0:23:39.840 --> 0:23:40.680
<v Speaker 2>I feel like the.

0:23:40.680 --> 0:23:44.640
<v Speaker 4>Australian government has proven that lockdown's work, and you only

0:23:44.680 --> 0:23:47.160
<v Speaker 4>have to look at Australia's case numbers to see that

0:23:47.280 --> 0:23:50.000
<v Speaker 4>our death rate and our case numbers are so low

0:23:50.040 --> 0:23:53.200
<v Speaker 4>to other countries. Lockdowns have been a success in minimizing

0:23:53.240 --> 0:23:55.520
<v Speaker 4>the spread and reducing the strain on hospitals.

0:23:55.520 --> 0:23:56.520
<v Speaker 2>They are really important and.

0:23:56.480 --> 0:23:59.320
<v Speaker 4>Yes they're very shit to be a part of. However,

0:23:59.359 --> 0:24:02.000
<v Speaker 4>lockdowns are aren't effective when people like Sharon and her

0:24:02.040 --> 0:24:04.600
<v Speaker 4>family refuse to abide by simple rules like wearing a

0:24:04.640 --> 0:24:07.160
<v Speaker 4>mask or congregating in grease, and this is what's pissing

0:24:07.200 --> 0:24:10.840
<v Speaker 4>people off. I feel like Sharon has completely also ignored

0:24:10.880 --> 0:24:13.359
<v Speaker 4>the fact that the situation is currently worse in Australia

0:24:13.400 --> 0:24:16.200
<v Speaker 4>because we're dealing with the delta variant. Now, something else

0:24:16.240 --> 0:24:17.960
<v Speaker 4>that a lot of people are talking about from this

0:24:18.119 --> 0:24:20.760
<v Speaker 4>video is that Sharon claimed more people were dying from

0:24:20.760 --> 0:24:23.120
<v Speaker 4>mental health problems than from COVID.

0:24:23.200 --> 0:24:24.119
<v Speaker 1>This is what she said.

0:24:24.359 --> 0:24:28.000
<v Speaker 3>How about we banned together instead and speak about what

0:24:28.040 --> 0:24:30.320
<v Speaker 3>the real issues are here, and that is that the

0:24:30.320 --> 0:24:34.639
<v Speaker 3>way it's being handled at the moment isn't working. People's

0:24:34.880 --> 0:24:39.720
<v Speaker 3>mental health is really important. We can't talk about people

0:24:39.720 --> 0:24:42.520
<v Speaker 3>that are dying from a virus when they're dying in

0:24:43.000 --> 0:24:47.399
<v Speaker 3>much larger numbers from mental health problems. And those that

0:24:47.440 --> 0:24:50.080
<v Speaker 3>aren't dying are having mental health problems that they're going

0:24:50.119 --> 0:24:51.439
<v Speaker 3>to have to struggle with for years.

0:24:51.640 --> 0:24:54.240
<v Speaker 4>The thing that annoys me is this is simply not true.

0:24:54.240 --> 0:24:58.800
<v Speaker 4>This is complete misinformation. Data from suicide registers in Victoria,

0:24:58.880 --> 0:25:01.959
<v Speaker 4>Queensland and newsa wal will show that suicide figures have

0:25:02.080 --> 0:25:04.639
<v Speaker 4>not increased since the start of the pandemic. So when

0:25:04.680 --> 0:25:06.679
<v Speaker 4>you take a look at the state like Victoria that

0:25:06.680 --> 0:25:09.080
<v Speaker 4>have endured over two hundred days of lockdown in the

0:25:09.080 --> 0:25:12.720
<v Speaker 4>past eighteen months, the suicide rate for twenty twenty one

0:25:12.800 --> 0:25:15.320
<v Speaker 4>is actually down when you compare it to the same

0:25:15.400 --> 0:25:18.760
<v Speaker 4>time in twenty nineteen. Also, when you have a look

0:25:18.760 --> 0:25:21.280
<v Speaker 4>at the death rate in Australia from COVID. It is

0:25:21.400 --> 0:25:23.679
<v Speaker 4>nine hundred and eighty six deaths. Now, that figure is

0:25:24.000 --> 0:25:28.439
<v Speaker 4>very low compared to other countries. However, worldwide there have

0:25:28.520 --> 0:25:31.400
<v Speaker 4>been four point four to six million deaths from COVID.

0:25:31.840 --> 0:25:34.240
<v Speaker 4>Our government has been doing a good job keeping the

0:25:34.320 --> 0:25:37.520
<v Speaker 4>deaths down by the lockdowns. However, if we were to

0:25:37.640 --> 0:25:39.080
<v Speaker 4>let it get out of control, like a lot of

0:25:39.119 --> 0:25:42.080
<v Speaker 4>these people are suggesting, then the deaths would be a

0:25:42.200 --> 0:25:45.080
<v Speaker 4>lot higher and the impact on people's mental health would

0:25:45.080 --> 0:25:46.160
<v Speaker 4>be even worse.

0:25:46.520 --> 0:25:49.399
<v Speaker 1>Now the spine Sharon saying that she wanted people to

0:25:49.440 --> 0:25:51.919
<v Speaker 1>not be divided and stand together even if they had

0:25:52.000 --> 0:25:55.280
<v Speaker 1>differing opinions. A lot of people were angered because she

0:25:55.400 --> 0:25:58.920
<v Speaker 1>blocked and deleted comments that she didn't agree with. However,

0:25:58.960 --> 0:26:02.120
<v Speaker 1>she did leave up a comment from Abby Chatfield which read,

0:26:02.520 --> 0:26:05.720
<v Speaker 1>laughing my ass off, public health isn't a matter of opinion.

0:26:06.040 --> 0:26:08.560
<v Speaker 1>She then continued and said, maybe the reason the numbers

0:26:08.600 --> 0:26:10.760
<v Speaker 1>are going up is because people like you and your

0:26:10.800 --> 0:26:13.840
<v Speaker 1>family members are using their platforms to encourage the breaking

0:26:13.880 --> 0:26:17.560
<v Speaker 1>of lockdown laws and protests. Lockdown's work when people actually

0:26:17.560 --> 0:26:20.560
<v Speaker 1>follow the rules which you are encouraging. People not to do.

0:26:20.840 --> 0:26:23.199
<v Speaker 1>How ignorant can you be not to see that?

0:26:24.000 --> 0:26:26.200
<v Speaker 4>I did find it interesting that Chloe and Mitch didn't

0:26:26.240 --> 0:26:30.200
<v Speaker 4>share Sharon's post, despite Mitch sharing Andrew Bogot's post, which

0:26:30.320 --> 0:26:33.639
<v Speaker 4>spurred on Sharon's video. Chloe did write a comment on

0:26:33.680 --> 0:26:35.640
<v Speaker 4>the post, though, she wrote, amazing of you to.

0:26:35.560 --> 0:26:36.840
<v Speaker 2>Speak the truth, Shaz.

0:26:37.200 --> 0:26:39.760
<v Speaker 4>She also used the praising hands and the love hearts.

0:26:40.040 --> 0:26:40.159
<v Speaker 3>Well.

0:26:40.200 --> 0:26:42.240
<v Speaker 1>It's been a very busy week on social media for

0:26:42.280 --> 0:26:45.200
<v Speaker 1>the Orvils because Sharon's husband Mark, who's better known as

0:26:45.240 --> 0:26:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Angry Dad, also ranted on his Instagram's story earlier this week,

0:26:49.080 --> 0:26:51.880
<v Speaker 1>saying that the media should be shut down because it's

0:26:51.880 --> 0:26:54.720
<v Speaker 1>not essential. He also said we wouldn't have to listen

0:26:54.760 --> 0:26:57.840
<v Speaker 1>to what's right and what's wrong if the media weren't around,

0:26:58.040 --> 0:27:01.199
<v Speaker 1>and he also denied being pro or anti vaccination and

0:27:01.280 --> 0:27:04.959
<v Speaker 1>instead blame the media for causing division within communities by

0:27:05.040 --> 0:27:07.840
<v Speaker 1>highlighting the need for vaccinations during a pandemic.

0:27:08.200 --> 0:27:11.679
<v Speaker 4>It's a really disappointing response from both Sharon and Mark Orville,

0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:15.800
<v Speaker 4>and quite puzzling because Angry Dad is going through cancer

0:27:15.840 --> 0:27:19.800
<v Speaker 4>treatment at the moment and Sharon is autoimmune compromise, so

0:27:20.000 --> 0:27:23.280
<v Speaker 4>it just seems strange that they are anti VAXX at

0:27:23.320 --> 0:27:26.439
<v Speaker 4>the moment because it really could affect their lives. I

0:27:26.480 --> 0:27:29.360
<v Speaker 4>suppose maybe he is being anti lockdown because he wants

0:27:29.400 --> 0:27:31.359
<v Speaker 4>to go out and live his life to the full extent.

0:27:32.040 --> 0:27:33.600
<v Speaker 4>But in order to do that, people are going to

0:27:33.680 --> 0:27:37.480
<v Speaker 4>have to get vaccinated, and his family are really becoming

0:27:37.480 --> 0:27:41.400
<v Speaker 4>a problem by pushing this anti vax anti lockdown stance.

0:27:41.680 --> 0:27:44.359
<v Speaker 4>It's not going to hurry things along all. If we

0:27:44.520 --> 0:27:47.800
<v Speaker 4>do what these people say and ease the restrictions and

0:27:47.880 --> 0:27:51.280
<v Speaker 4>let everyone get out and about without having vaccination numbers up,

0:27:51.320 --> 0:27:54.240
<v Speaker 4>then it is going to be an absolute catastrophe. We

0:27:54.320 --> 0:27:56.639
<v Speaker 4>have seen what it is like in India and the

0:27:56.760 --> 0:27:59.040
<v Speaker 4>UK and the US and everywhere else that has let

0:27:59.320 --> 0:28:00.720
<v Speaker 4>the virus run wild.

0:28:00.960 --> 0:28:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, what do you guys think in a year's time

0:28:02.920 --> 0:28:05.240
<v Speaker 1>do you think that Chloe and Mitchell will still have

0:28:05.320 --> 0:28:07.359
<v Speaker 1>the same platform that they have now or do you

0:28:07.400 --> 0:28:10.200
<v Speaker 1>think they are actually going to be canceled. I think

0:28:10.240 --> 0:28:14.440
<v Speaker 1>it's very dependent on what happens with the pandemic. I

0:28:14.480 --> 0:28:18.080
<v Speaker 1>think that there is room for redemption, I think in

0:28:18.200 --> 0:28:20.840
<v Speaker 1>some people's eyes, but for others, I think that they

0:28:20.880 --> 0:28:23.280
<v Speaker 1>no longer want to support them in any area of

0:28:23.280 --> 0:28:25.840
<v Speaker 1>their lives. Do you think they're being a bit pigheaded

0:28:26.119 --> 0:28:28.560
<v Speaker 1>in the way that they've come out on social media

0:28:28.560 --> 0:28:30.400
<v Speaker 1>and said all of these things, because at the end

0:28:30.400 --> 0:28:34.080
<v Speaker 1>of the day, they do rely on having followers to

0:28:34.160 --> 0:28:35.520
<v Speaker 1>live the lifestyle.

0:28:35.000 --> 0:28:35.560
<v Speaker 2>That they leave.

0:28:35.960 --> 0:28:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think that they're forgetting a lot of their

0:28:37.840 --> 0:28:40.440
<v Speaker 1>privilege at the moment, the fact that they're privileged to

0:28:40.480 --> 0:28:43.520
<v Speaker 1>continue working and earning a lot of money via social media,

0:28:43.560 --> 0:28:45.600
<v Speaker 1>because it's just going to take a few brands to

0:28:45.720 --> 0:28:48.640
<v Speaker 1>drop off, and especially if their business starts to drop

0:28:48.680 --> 0:28:50.000
<v Speaker 1>off with ZEP, they're going to be in a bit

0:28:50.040 --> 0:28:50.479
<v Speaker 1>of trouble.

0:28:50.600 --> 0:28:52.800
<v Speaker 4>But it's the thing that's frustrated me a lot about

0:28:52.800 --> 0:28:56.280
<v Speaker 4>this whole thing is how Chloe and Mitch seem happy

0:28:56.320 --> 0:29:00.800
<v Speaker 4>to promote anti lockdown protests. However, when it to other

0:29:01.080 --> 0:29:04.800
<v Speaker 4>large social justice issues, we haven't heard their voices at all,

0:29:05.400 --> 0:29:08.040
<v Speaker 4>and it just sort of leaves a really bad taste

0:29:08.080 --> 0:29:10.720
<v Speaker 4>in your mouth because I feel like Chloe and Mitch

0:29:10.960 --> 0:29:13.840
<v Speaker 4>and the Orvil family have been showed to be incredibly

0:29:13.880 --> 0:29:17.400
<v Speaker 4>selfish during this pandemic. They clearly don't care about other people,

0:29:17.440 --> 0:29:20.440
<v Speaker 4>because if they did, they would be getting vaccinated. And

0:29:20.480 --> 0:29:23.400
<v Speaker 4>I'm just kind of tired of this privileged selfish behavior,

0:29:23.440 --> 0:29:27.200
<v Speaker 4>particularly from people that have a good life. They're privileged,

0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:29.600
<v Speaker 4>they're living in a mansion on the Gold Coast, their

0:29:29.680 --> 0:29:31.240
<v Speaker 4>earnings haven't been affected at all.

0:29:31.360 --> 0:29:33.240
<v Speaker 1>I think that's all we have time for. Thank you

0:29:33.320 --> 0:29:36.200
<v Speaker 1>so much for joining us for today's episode. If you

0:29:36.240 --> 0:29:37.920
