Intro
SPEAKER_01This podcast was produced on the land of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. Someone who is such a conservative reality television. Oh my god. Hey Kurtis. Good gravy. Good gravey.
SPEAKER_00Golly gosh, Ellie.
SPEAKER_01Gosh.
Girls Gone Wild
SPEAKER_01Oh my god. Oh my god. How are you, doll?
SPEAKER_00I'm great. Great. Especially uh we had a cute little dance on the weekend, didn't we? Oops. Oops.
SPEAKER_01We had a accidental wild night out, didn't we?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, which is always the best. Yeah, I think I needed it. An accidental drunk?
SPEAKER_01Like, oh well, you never plan to, you know, go to the peel, do you? No. No, that happens to you. Happens to you out of desperation and substance-fueled decision making.
SPEAKER_00I love that.
SPEAKER_01But it was great fun. Also, love going to the peel when it is like torrential downpour outside. That's fun. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Torrential in and outside.
SPEAKER_01In and outside. My favourite part of the night was uh the multiple house parties that we crashed.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. I felt like we were early 20s again. I actually do.
SPEAKER_01I felt really like Thule vibes or something. I don't know. Like, not, yeah, what am I doing here? Well, in fancy. And like rocking up empty-handed everyone, just drinking everyone's drinks. I've not done that in a very long time.
SPEAKER_00I guess for us, it really is living our past.
SPEAKER_01It was great. But I liked um that first one. How that was cute. Because I was just thinking about, you know, topics to discuss this week on the pod. And I've been watching
All Sarah Snook's Fault
SPEAKER_01streaming hit uh All Her Fault. Yes. Sarah Snook Peacock Show. Which have you fucked with that yet? No, I haven't. Do you know what? I'm gonna say it. It's not very good. Woohoo! Let them know. But I can see why. So it's had like two billion streams, which is that sounds like a lot of a lot.
SPEAKER_00That sounds like a lot.
SPEAKER_01And I can see why. Because it's perfect, like thriller trash. It's based off like a airport novel. Like, you know. Okay, I'm kind of in now. Yeah. I mean, it's very it's giving kind of like big little eyes. Level of yeah, yeah, yeah. Level of production slash goodness.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So it's fine, but it's not right. Uh, but a bunch of those people at that house party worked on that show. Yeah. And I was like, I was like, I had so many thoughts. Give them notes. Give them notes. And they were like, oh, thank you. And then they gave me all the tea about so for those who are playing along at home, uh, this show is set in Chicago.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Um, even though I found out the book is set in Dublin, which I'm like, that's way more, way more fun. Interesting. But of course America can't. But it's not shot in either. No, it's not. But America can't handle things that don't take place in their fine nation. So they rewrote it to be in Chicago, which like look, great, love, love Chicago. Can we say it properly, please? Oh, sorry. Chicago. I am from Chicago. Uh stunning. Uh, however, for the eagle-eyed viewers at home, you'll notice that um DFO South Wharf is in fact in Melbourne.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, and amazing to see people there.
SPEAKER_01Amazing to see Sarah Snook there, just doing a weekend shop, yeah, getting some deals. Uh, yeah, so the the filming locations are hilarious if you're a Melbourne because they're not like what you'd expect. Glamorous places. There's a few sh scenes in like Williamstown Beach as well. I was like, okay, yep.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. I mean, you know, sh locations are expensive. Maya was too much. So Maya was unavailable.
SPEAKER_01David Jones said no. DFO South Wolf said, you know what?
SPEAKER_00They say yes to everything.
SPEAKER_01Well, anything on the well, I guess it looks similar, because you know, both cities have lovely rivers and lovely skyscrapers. So I can see why they thought we wouldn't realise. Um but yeah. Great production. Um loving seriously. I've decided so Cyrus, she, you know, she's having a moment.
SPEAKER_00Look, I'll be honest, I'm not super familiar.
SPEAKER_01So she was in succession?
SPEAKER_00Um, I did.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_00I always get things mixed up names-wise. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Quick plot of succession.
SPEAKER_01I think you'd know if you'd seen it. It's the, you know, the family deciding who's gonna take over the family business. No. May or may not be loosely based on, you know, the Murdochs. Oh that one. You'd know if you'd fucking say it. No, no, it's on my list, though. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. That again, like amazing show, it's a lot. I think you either love it or you didn't quite get it. Okay. Um, you should have to do it. Oh, it's a good thing, you like it. Yeah, it's great. But it's like, yeah, it's it's not my not my usual genre. But I got into it, so she's really good in that. Then she did the Dorian Gray uh play, the SCC play that was amazing, but she did that in London. Yeah, like one person show, incredible, and now this. I'm a bit like, oh get her on the pod. What's next? It's like, girl, we I want to know what's next. You're going full Nicole Kidman already.
SPEAKER_00I don't know. It's gotta be done.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Hey, hitting the plays early in a career is always good.
SPEAKER_01Well, when it's fun, I reckon she'd be fun to hang out with. Let's get her on. But I loved at this house, they had a few like set pieces from that show. Yes. That lovely artwork. Because like that's nice. Like, that was from the set of they were gonna throw it out. Well, they you gotta do that. What are you talking about? You're gonna throw out this beautiful set piece. Anyway, but yeah, that was fun, and I'm sure they spilt more too. I just don't remember. Oh no, that's yeah, they were saying that the production got moved to Melbourne last minute because Sarah Snook was like, Yeah, look, I'm home visiting uh family. Bless her. So we'll just we'll just fly everyone out to Dockland Studios.
SPEAKER_00If everyone could just come to me, that would be great.
SPEAKER_01That's a power fucking move. It's like if you want me in this show.
SPEAKER_00So good. I want to do that with all of my future experiences of all types. Work life, whatever. Just everyone come to me.
SPEAKER_01Oh, that's literally me. You come to me. I'm always like, so we'll go out, yeah, but we'll start at night. I love people coming to name.
SPEAKER_00Me too. Can hoax. Yeah. Both super hoaxes.
SPEAKER_01Uh what else is happening? You said you're not up to date with below deck med. No. Which I don't think I am either. No, but I have I've been enjoying
Below Deck Meddling
SPEAKER_01the season. Oh, it's good. I think it's good. It's below deck. It's always good, but it's never amazing.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. I'm very happy it's there. It's so comforting. Yeah, you need it. Oh, yeah, big time.
SPEAKER_01Where are you up to? Has Max um had his moment yet with the new girl? No.
SPEAKER_00No, the I'm up to the episode before that because the new girl's just arrived and he's done a very quintessential. Oh my god! Yeah. But um love Max. I don't know. I just love the whole what's his name? Um Pretty Boys just who joined the boat. Um was in the previous season. Oh Joe Joe.
SPEAKER_01Joe is the fucking slimiest motherfucker. I love him. I he is disgusting. You can see the like grease.
SPEAKER_00I just love that it's like the exact same thing as it was the previous season of like, oh, everyone's into how did this happen to me? Like, babe, you you are the biggest flirty slut ever in the best way.
SPEAKER_01And when he whips out the Spanish, when he's and especially because they're in Spain this season, he just like starts speaking Spanish, and the girls just like wet themselves. Oh, they're like, but it's funny because he's like Spanish accent sounds fine, but then when he speaks English, it's like, is he from like Liverpool or something crazy? He's got this like insane English accent. They subtitle him on the show, which is hilarious. Offensive. He's like, I can't actually I can't do it.
SPEAKER_00But it's it's um he might be from Liverpool. Liverpool. It's it's given that. He's like, oh the the birds, but yeah, uh, I just I love love that. Yeah, you need it in your life. How to me. I love it when people do that.
SPEAKER_01What do you think about the clown chef?
SPEAKER_00Okay, I'm over it. I like him. Yeah, I'm trying to. The clown bit has been pushed. If the producers are listening, please stop pushing stop trying to make fetch happen.
SPEAKER_01Like, yeah, they need bits like that though, I get it.
SPEAKER_00And the guitar, the little sing songs in the streets.
SPEAKER_01It's the guy with the guitar at the party, isn't he?
SPEAKER_00Well, you know, self-proclaimed vegan, lived in a commune, all that sort of stuff. It all makes sense, but that's also the person I avoided at house party. I don't want to hear about your dreams unless I'm in them. Yeah. And I don't want to hear about your trip again, unless I'm in it.
SPEAKER_01Or that time you lived in Mexico for six weeks.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. No, it'll change your life, man. It'll change your life. Yeah, expand your horizon.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, he's very he's he's harmless brosky. Like, I'd rather hang out with him than fucking Joe. Well, that's fair, just more wholesome. Way more, but like, yeah, he's a bit of a geek. But I am enjoying this season. I have no idea who's gonna fuck who. It seems like they're all gonna fuck each other at some point, which is what we love about blow deck. But uh, I'm also struggling to tell apart some of the interior girlies because they all kind of look the same. Yeah, and that girl dumping her boyfriend so that she could fuck around on the boat was iconic. I know I love her. Oh my god. She's like, uh so hard. Didn't realise I was gonna want to fuck everyone on this show. So see ya live.
SPEAKER_00This is not like this is not a first for her. Like, she is very accustomed to going with the wind for whatever she wants to do.
SPEAKER_01The way she justifies it to herself. That is amazing.
SPEAKER_00Like immediately after that call, which she did not seemingly find difficult, did not buy the job.
SPEAKER_01Oh, she was just like, oh he was like pretty devs. He was proper dev. I felt bad for him because I was like, mate, you didn't realise by now that. But did you see that little picture of him? I mean no.
SPEAKER_00He surely knew this was kind of not hot. I think he was I think he was there at the right time. Which would have been as soon as she would dump somebody else, probably. Oh no. Uh but I loved her little after that call being like, um, oh I hate boys. Yeah. It's like they're not. Like they're the problems.
SPEAKER_01I'm like, come on. Uh and you're not
BBAU
SPEAKER_01are you watching Big Brother? I can't remember. I am. I'm a little I'm a little behind. Why didn't we start with that? We buried the lead.
SPEAKER_00Well, truth be told, I'm just like, I'm loving it. I'm super loving it, but I'm also quite a bit behind. Okay. Um, so I don't um I'm catching up tonight and I can't wait. I'm like four episodes or something off.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So you're not um not watching the live stream.
SPEAKER_00No, I'm not interested in the dryers personally.
SPEAKER_01The the washer and dryer, breakout stars of the show. What's next for them? I don't know. Well they won't they yeah, it's good. Uh it has slowed down a bit. First week was like crazy good. Second week's got, I feel like I don't know how they're gonna keep it up.
SPEAKER_00Is there has there been two eliminations or one so far?
SPEAKER_01There's been two. Okay, I've only seen one. Spoiler arena for you.
SPEAKER_00But yeah.
SPEAKER_01Uh it's so good. And I'm kind of here for this short season, so they're only doing four weeks this year. Nice, nice little taste back in. And then I'm hoping next year we come back and we've, you know, put a ceiling on the house.
SPEAKER_00There's that'd be crazy after spending who knows how much getting this set up, they'd be crazy not to do a million sets. Yes, yes. Oh, there's definitely gonna be another one, and clearly Australia's behind it, so well that yeah, for all the wrong reasons.
SPEAKER_01I think Australia are mobilised. Well, I think people are like hate watching. Do you know what I mean? Is that not well I alone I that's the way I view everything in this world, but I think yeah, who knows if that's what they had anticipated or gone for, but hey, who cares if you struck gold, you know, stop digging. Are you living for Jane?
SPEAKER_00No, actually, I am uh I'm I'm uh controversial, I'm anti-Jane.
SPEAKER_01Wow, I'm shook by that.
SPEAKER_00I think well, from what I've seen so far, I don't know. I didn't like how she rallied behind a bit of old school thought, which is fair for me. But also Okay, so controversial. We're gonna get into it. I have a B in my bonnet about anybody expecting other people to change or live the way that they want, right? No problem if you're religious or uh you know, your relationship style, whatever, but don't try to make me do it. I won't try to make you do my thing. And one of the ones is in a lot of cultures and societies, older people take priority. Yeah, respect your elders, whatever's comfortable for them, you do that.
SPEAKER_01Also, she's acting like she's like a hundred years old, she's like 60.
SPEAKER_00Like, calm down, Joe. Oh, she's even then she's looking good. I will say that, I will say that. But there was like that whole situation where the making out made her uncomfortable. I didn't like voice your concerns.
SPEAKER_01Oh, it's like Holly making you uncomfortable. I can get behind. Oh, I just but the making out, that's not the part that's annoying. It's just Holly's existence.
SPEAKER_00Well, I guess didn't like how much the how seemed to rally around, like, oh well they're you know, they're older, or that you know, that's it from a different time. How does that take priority? It's just different to me. But you can respect it. Let a thousand blossoms bloom. Let a thousand and I'm not gonna talk about it. I'm not gonna talk about it! Anyway, you've fired me. I'll stop now.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, well, for more BB content, head over to Patreon or Apple Subscriptions, where you'll find me each week talking about Big Brother in detail.
SPEAKER_00And there is so much to talk about.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, we're having fun over there.
Aussie Shore S02E09 Recap
SPEAKER_01But we are here to talk about the penultimate episode of Aussie Motherfucking Shaw.
SPEAKER_00Can't thank you so much for having me on for this episode. Yeah, you've got a good one. Because this is probably my favourite of the season.
SPEAKER_01Like so good, so much hard. In a moon booth.
SPEAKER_00I've gone from like hating. I think the last time we spoke about this on the pod, I was not a Lily fan, and I've done a full 180. Right. And I am obsessed.
SPEAKER_01She's a messy queen, and I love it. And this episode is aptly titled Hobbled in Hot. Which is a great title.
SPEAKER_00I laughed so hard reading it.
SPEAKER_01I'm assuming Lexi got fed that line by a gay writer to the side, but hey.
SPEAKER_00Credit where credit's due.
SPEAKER_01So previously, we get a reminder that uh Kart just says, Look, I made him come and he made me a coffee.
SPEAKER_00Which was so good. Bless.
SPEAKER_01That's a great line. I made him come, he made me a coffee. So good.
SPEAKER_00Is that now part of our lexicon forever? Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Lily's gone home. Yep. Wow. After being in hospital for I don't know, throwing a chair. Yeah. And San Fran rails some random chick in the shag pad. Is that what's going on?
SPEAKER_00Which that footage, by the way, was quite funny.
SPEAKER_01That footage was amazing. I think San Fran is a uh hot root.
SPEAKER_00Oh, look. I think he knows what he's doing. In in the words of um the the queer eye cameo in Big Mouth, yeah, the dumb ones pound the hardest.
SPEAKER_01The dumb ones do pound the hardest. And San Fran, also he's 21. So like, is he? Yeah, something like that. He's something. So come on. He's yeah, no, I agree. I think stamina.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. And just the no inhibition to just get in there.
SPEAKER_01And you know, without Lily around.
SPEAKER_00Oh boy, he certainly loves that. He speaks on it all. And who would it? I I'd be like, thank fuck. Yeah. For the moon boot.
SPEAKER_01So it's the morning after.
SPEAKER_00He's not the only one loving the absence of Lily, though.
SPEAKER_01No, no. We'll get there. So morning after, San Fran is stoked that he got some in the shag pad. And Lockie is oh my god. So Lockie is reveling in his victimness. Oh.
SPEAKER_00He's like, oh, I got caught a failure twice. Which, by the way, like they have the girlies have a chat in the morning of and they go on and on about all of this stuff about how it's such a bad thing. I just want to flag, I don't understand. These people say all sorts of heinous shit on the show, but then suddenly something will happen, like the word failure, and they all crumble.
SPEAKER_01What's it's what's the significance? Do you know what? He's he's m I think he is like, Yay, I have an out. No, that's my hot take. I think he I think he was done with cardiac anyway. I can see he knew that if he fucking.
SPEAKER_00Actually, the more I think about it, yeah.
SPEAKER_01He knew as soon as he went inside that uh she was gonna catch feelings. Con had already warned him of this. Uh the curse of Nonna is just has been unleashed.
SPEAKER_00Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_01And now he's like, fuck, how do I get out? And then luckily she, you know, had a moment which the we've all been there. Yeah. And so I think he's like, fuck yeah, I can um shake this one loose now.
SPEAKER_00Yes. Um, but also one thing that came of this episode and moment was that girly's having the chat thing, Jada.
SPEAKER_01Oh my girl.
SPEAKER_00I was living for this, and not really fully expecting this full calling out of the friend thing. Did it in a really honest way, and like genuinely cared. Yeah. It was it was beautiful, it was poetry. I loved it. Yeah. And she took it really well, which is also nice to see.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Bless me. No, Jada is a friend you want to have because she's the life of the party, but then she'll give it to you straight. And yeah, she's very she's so I big points.
SPEAKER_00Love Jada. Big points on her for me this episode.
SPEAKER_01But also with Loki, like, you know, you've lived a pretty privileged life if the worst thing that anyone's ever called you is a failure. Like, honey. Oh, yeah. Do you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00It's very telling. Your privilege is trying.
SPEAKER_01Twice! Twice! Twice. Yeah. He's fogging a dead horse with cardiac, he says he's over it. And then I love this. Then it cuts to cardia, and she's like, Yeah, I think I might be pushing him away. And I was like, You don't say girly. In fact, I think you may have pushed him away.
SPEAKER_00It seemed intentional.
SPEAKER_01Not pushing. I think it's done so. Girl.
SPEAKER_00Oh, big time.
SPEAKER_01It's too late. Uh they clear the air, and this was awkward. Well, she tries to clear the air. She apologizes. She's like, look, I messed up, blah blah blah. But he's not sold because you want my lucky impression.
SPEAKER_00Please. So you've just apologised to me. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01I'm so sorry.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, right. Well, okay. Cool then. That was his whole vibe. It's just like, yeah, you're fucking right to apologize, and like it's gross to watch.
SPEAKER_01Don't think I'll ever come back from being called a failure twice.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, look, you did fuck up pretty bad. He accepted kind of bad.
SPEAKER_01Do you want to uh yeah, do you want another coffee? Or oh god. Yeah, he sucks. But uh yeah, I think he's like he relieved. And look, I would be too, Cadia. I don't want the wrath of Nana around me either. Uh he's like, we're gonna stay. I love it. He does he does a lot of this in confessional. He's like, Oh yeah, but we're gonna stay mates. I'm just like, um, does she know this? Or are you just is this what you've decided?
SPEAKER_00It's well, whatever he decides is reality for him.
SPEAKER_01Anyway, uh but also, and then so Loki is still pissed because the righteousness is righteousing. Oh, it's right he's still pissed at Ree for getting involved. And to that I'm like, come on, let Ree get involved in the drama. Everyone was like annoyed when she was being a wallflower, and now she's getting involved, and we're like, I don't know.
SPEAKER_00I don't think it was that bad either.
SPEAKER_01She just piled on with And also wasn't Lexi like just as bad in this?
SPEAKER_00I I think so, from what I remember, but also like Yeah, it just really wasn't that bad. This whole thing of if someone's already on one about something and you're you're a mate, depending on your style, usually you validate their feelings a little bit, because you know I d I don't remember her riling it up.
SPEAKER_01No, and Manaki's joining in on this. He's like he's like, fuck off, Free. Oh, hello, Fredon.
SPEAKER_00She's just getting jealous. She's like, what's going on here?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, Manaki's also taking sides. When did Manaki and Lockie get so oh chummy?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I really want to talk on that. Manaki's well keen. That's obvious, right? Yeah. Um Lockie, not as not keen as you might thought. I don't know. There's been a few little scenes here and there that get a bit touch-in cute, I think. Have you not seen that?
SPEAKER_01I think Loki just would enjoy that attention. Oh, that's so cute. Yeah. He's remember he said at the start, he's like, oh yeah. He's like, I'll pash my mates for for a laugh at the part. Oh, what an ally. Okay. Thanks. What an ally. You know? He wants a m he wants a pride like participation award for having like queer family members. Yeah. And not gay and not gay bashing.
SPEAKER_00Do you think? Congratulations. Um, do you reckon he would do a monarchy? Yeah, you could start me off, but I'm not gonna suck a dick because I'm not gay.
SPEAKER_01Hey, maybe.
SPEAKER_00I reckon he would. I reckon he would. For sure.
SPEAKER_01Uh okay, today's job question mark is salsa dancing. I love they've really thrown this out of the world. Like they're just like, alright, now they're just doing random shit.
SPEAKER_00Oh, production was just like, oh, uh, we've got this thing to do, we better shoot it now.
SPEAKER_01When Charlotte is tapped out. Charlotte has clocked off, she's on the plane, back to wherever the fuck she is, and she's like, I'm done. So salsa dancing it is. Uh this was yeah, this was alright.
SPEAKER_00I think we've said enough about it. I mean that's pretty much all I have on that. There is nothing to talk about.
SPEAKER_01Con and San Fran getting partnered up was kind of cute.
SPEAKER_00Oh, that was cute.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, they make a cute cute couple.
SPEAKER_00Actually they do. No, my actually, there is one thing that I will say about that scene was the term from Lexi, oh, I'm not a dancer, I move like a stiff dick. That tickled me. I thought that was great.
SPEAKER_01I love Lexi, but like, and I'm really glad that they dropped the girlfriend in this app because I'm like, we need more Lexi. I I'm I'm missing the messiness from last season.
SPEAKER_00Absolutely, absolutely.
SPEAKER_01Uh, Katia and Kyle visit Lily in I'm assuming like her Brisbane home.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. I think it was her parents' house?
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Lily's gone back to her parents' house in her moon boot, um, working on her lawsuit against Paramount Plus, no doubt. Uh and uh I love this, and Kyle just the messiest bitch of all time can't help himself with those duck lips, is like so yeah, so San Fran cheated on you.
SPEAKER_00And how many seconds from the moment it walks in the door? Like she says hi, Cuddy says hi, and then he goes, Stan Fran's cheating on you. Which is the most like which let's just interrogate that for the most explosive way to say to somebody that he fucks somebody, which is the accurate truth.
SPEAKER_01Which, like, is it cheating if they were not at all in a arranged arrangement? Yeah, it's not. No, I thought that was a stretch, but hey, living for the messiness, great TV. Uh, they also throw Rhee out of the. I was not expecting this. Cardi is like, also, you should know something. That ugly dog Re is fucking jealous. Like, it literally was like that. I was like, whoa, like what the fuck? This girl that it was just fighting your battles and like getting all in trouble. And getting getting in trouble for supporting you, yeah, you're now gonna go to Lily, the fucking dark lord, and throw her under the bus. I was shook by this.
SPEAKER_00Katiya, no, no, no, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_01Like, she says she's I love she says she's really intimidated by you. Oh, well, why didn't she say it to my face?
SPEAKER_00Killed me. Absolutely killed me.
SPEAKER_01That doesn't sound like my problem.
SPEAKER_00She no, she said it wasn't her problem.
SPEAKER_01Not my problem. Well, that's not my problem, and that's actually really upsetting. She should have probably said something to me. It's like she's the whole point is that you're intimidating.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Not for one second. It's literally like, hmm, let me think about that.
SPEAKER_00Oh, so good. Incredible. It's exactly what we we expect and hope for out of this television show. Oh, so good.
SPEAKER_01Then back at the house, uh, Re apologizes to Lockie, which again I was like, boo. I didn't like that.
SPEAKER_00Why are we doing this? I didn't like that. Uh that scene made me really uncomfortable, actually, because he just took all the power and was just like, yeah, no, I was fucking shit as he always does. But the worst part for me was how she did the classic, oh yeah, look, I am so sorry. Yeah, no, you're right, you're right. I'm such a bad person. And it was just hard to watch. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01But you're right, she was literally just like, Yes, you are perfect, and I'm horrible.
SPEAKER_00Me bad, me, dumb girl, you smart boy.
SPEAKER_01It was that, and I was like, Freed, what are you doing? Get some self-respect. I don't know. I wouldn't want he's pretty aggro, like, I wouldn't want him pissed at me either. So maybe she's just doing it type thing. I look, I'll be very shocked if we see Ree next season. But I think she's yeah, done. I don't I don't think she had a fun time. Nope. No. Um, which sucks because she walked in to the house on day one. She's had some great moments. Ready to go. She was had the best attitude. I'm annoyed for her. I know, I'm annoyed for her. And I get it. Like we all we all hate being no one wants to be around a lily that sucks all the oxygen out of the room.
SPEAKER_00And we've all been there. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01So I get it. And I feel for um for re-read.
SPEAKER_00And you you just yeah, this us like little bit where Lily's been aware, you have seen her come out a little more.
SPEAKER_01But well night out, because why the fuck not? Uh, this was fun. Kyle's Passion Boys, Con and San Fran area. Con and San Fran as a little wingman duo, not gonna lie, like pretty hot. I don't know. I have fantasies about this. Look, that's fair. That's fair. Um, yeah. I would love some MMF content with those two to come out. I'd miss.
SPEAKER_00I do not think that that's a reach in any way, shape, or form.
SPEAKER_01I reckon San Fran would be down. Com would be like, oh nah, bro, I don't want my dick on TV. I don't want my dick near another dick.
SPEAKER_00Oh, that's even if we're family. You're right, you're right, he would be.
SPEAKER_01But I reckon Sanfran would absolutely I can tell. Re and Manaki hug it out at the club. I love this is my favourite scene on their shows when they make up and have like DNMs and shit in the club because yes, that's that's real. We do we all do that.
SPEAKER_00That is so relatable content.
SPEAKER_01It is because you're out and you're like, oh, I just want to have fun. I don't want to be like awkward with this person. So you're like, can we just like leave this on the floor?
SPEAKER_00It's the time to do it. Exactly.
SPEAKER_01DNMs.
SPEAKER_00DNMs in the smokers. That's where you'll find me. That's my jam. Yeah, bring that back. Um, but we need to talk about the kiss.
SPEAKER_01So San Fran gets a uh an MFF kiss when Con's in the loop.
SPEAKER_00Well, they both found themselves a filly, and then they're they're doing their thing, and then as soon as Con goes to the bathroom, little three-way kiss again, taking me straight back to high school.
SPEAKER_01Three-way kiss.
SPEAKER_00It's cute, love it. Very cute.
SPEAKER_01Love to see it. Love that. Uh cut to kebabs.
SPEAKER_00Uh well, we're skipping over Conn's little hissy fit. I mean, he was being silly. I don't think he was mad. I disagree. Oh, really?
SPEAKER_01I reckon he was so uncomfortable. I thought he was being a like a good sport about just making a joke.
SPEAKER_00Well, I don't know. I love to watch things that make me uh hate things, but um I have to talk about his moment of like yeah, no, never never touch my girl again or some shit like that. Did he reach it? So possessive. No, I reckon he was like super insecure about it.
SPEAKER_01But they still seem to have their little bromance going.
SPEAKER_00Oh yeah, they do. I don't know. He wasn't cut about it in the sense that he's gonna talk about it later, but it was just like a little caveman moment.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it was that's con, he's so harmless, and then he just gives it up. And San Fran was like, oh yeah, watch out, Con.
SPEAKER_00Well, he said there's only one thing I love more than a three-way kiss, and that's cutting con's grass.
SPEAKER_01Amazing, very funny, very vibing. Uh yeah, vibes are hype. Yeah, vibes are hype. Back at the ranch, uh, and the next day they have a pool party. Yes. And Callum Hole. I I hate to say it, but I'm obsessed. You love Callum Hole? Love. Look, I love a bit of hole, but uh Callum Hole? No, not on my list. So sorry. And I love that like Charlotte's gone, but like, quick, bring someone else in from a from the franchise with a northern accent. Yeah, like sure. He did great, he stirred all of the shit that needed to be stirred.
SPEAKER_00He did in the best way, but like he just grow he grosses me out. Oh no, like I wouldn't trust him for a second, but he's got I'll watch him on the safety of my own couch on television.
SPEAKER_01There is not a body hair on that man. It is like a it is like an asshole wax situation.
SPEAKER_00Oh, I bet he's yeah, top to toe laser, top to toe laser.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah, for sure, and not a hair out of place. Any any boy that is that clean. Yeah, don't trust him, can't do it. Yeah, he's straight, man. Oh, he's like, oh, we're nearing the end of summer. Uh I love this. Jada's like, call him and a tit just pops out.
SPEAKER_00So good. And she knocks over um Reese drink into Reese in one beautiful, graceful movement. Yeah. A titty pop and a drink spill. Yeah. That's why we watch this show.
SPEAKER_01And bless, we do need Calum Mair because he goes, or where's Lily? And they're all like, mmm. They give the tea. They spill the tea. Uh, then they cheers to Feamly Fighting and Fucking.
SPEAKER_00Poetry. I love this boot.
SPEAKER_01Beautiful. I love this show so much. And then Dernan, Dernan, incoming moon boot, the the shot of just the moon boot.
SPEAKER_00Heaven. Honestly, they could have milked that a lot more. I would have been very happy.
SPEAKER_01Coming for a logie with that editing. Like just slow-mo shot. A loafie. A lofi. Moon boot hobbling in, and then we get her hobbling in. I died. And Ree's like, oh yeah. Way to kill my fucking vibe with this bitch.
SPEAKER_00And what does she do? She comes in hot. She's like, oi, everyone, I'm back.
SPEAKER_01Get rid of all your oxygen. I need it. And they all, you know.
SPEAKER_00She like barely, her ass barely touches the seat and she's like, right, Rhee, I hear you talking shit about me. Come here.
SPEAKER_01She's like, first, Rhee, you're in the hot seat. Get over here. She does. She makes her come over. And he's like, Are you fucking serious? Which, so if I was right, I'd be like, who the fuck passed this on? But anyway, uh, and then Kyle's little duck lips a purse, and she's like, Good luck, fanfran, and Rihanna.
SPEAKER_00Which we are all thinking.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, but also, yeah, no thanks to you, like making this happen. Messy bitch. Lily's like, Alright, Rhee, why are you talking shit about me? And Rhee's like, Well, yes, I have been speaking about you because you know, yeah, you're a lot, and you make me feel a bit shit. And you know what? Kudos to her. That would be a full.
SPEAKER_00She held her ground pretty well, and that would be such a scary place, especially for someone admittedly anxious about this kind of thing. Yeah. So good on her. But I also feel really bad because there was these ones.
SPEAKER_01There was not my problem. Not my problem.
SPEAKER_00A lot of pointing, a lot of slap slapping the hands. It was it was intense.
SPEAKER_01I just don't need this. I was like, it actually is your problem. It's you've made someone feel really shit. Like, I don't know. I think that's a teachable moment. You just go, oh my god, I'm really sorry. And you just like, I don't know, try and be better.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, but the the self-awareness that would take would mean that we weren't here in the first place. True. Everyone's on a journey, she'll get there, maybe. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Then with that out of the way, she's like, San Fran, you're up next.
SPEAKER_00Can't get out of here.
SPEAKER_01Oh boy. This bothered me this bit. She's such a punisher. He no, this bothered me because Re took a beating. This is and then San Fran literally just goes, Boy, being bing bing bing. That's his little gorgeous eyelashes. The curls are you know what a cheeky little smile. Cheeky smile, and she goes, Yeah. Oh, I can't stay mad at Sam Fran.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. It it frustrated me for the exact same reason. Poor little Reed didn't deserve it. Not that he did, but it's just like talk about getting off easy, pun intended.
SPEAKER_01She'd already used up all her mad juices on um Rihanna. Yeah. The poor thing. She goes, I can't stay mad at that phase. And then that's kind of it, and you're like, oh, alright, well. Uh then back at the ranch, it's the final house party of the season.
SPEAKER_00And what a house party.
SPEAKER_01Yep. Frenchie rocks up for Jada with flowers, and she goes, You bring me flowers, you get my fucking flower. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02I love her.
SPEAKER_01She's so good. Uh Callum rocks up with Lexi's hot girlfriend. Yes. Very hot. Love to see her. Love their little blonde girl thing they've got going on.
SPEAKER_00Very cute. Very cute. Giving G and Cruchelle. And we've we've we've seen some um we've seen the boys do some kissing, and now we get to see the girls do some kissing. Inclusivity, hooray for television and era.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Breaking down barriers for the community.
SPEAKER_00Stonewall happened so that we could get this show.
SPEAKER_01Wait, no one died, it's Tom While. Uh and it kicks off uh after Callum. Sorry, Cardia tells Callum about Lockie not finishing her off, and Callum's like, oh highlight of the season. There's one thing Callum Hall doesn't stand for, and that's finishing off your lady.
SPEAKER_00Oh my god. So good. It is so good. So the cute the they're they're having a little cheeky chuckle about it, having a chat. Lockie over here gets all in his feels insecure because he fucking should. Yeah. Personal opinion.
SPEAKER_01He's feeling totally like emasculated, isn't he?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, which is uh legitimately warranted. But um the best part about this interaction is then Callum walks out while Lockie's having a little hissy fit and does not shy away from the drama and in front of everybody outside. And it's like, I'm just saying you're not a you're not a real man, you're a boy. If you can't, you're a little boy if you don't know how to service a bird. If you don't know how to service a bird, you're a boy. Get that bird service right now! And everyone loses it. People like scream, people stand up, walk away.
SPEAKER_01It is all you have to do in this situation is just have a little chuckle. But no no no Lockie's a very serious boy. He gets really upset. In my world, a man finishes off his woman. Which is like it's funny because Callum is one of those broskies that like thinks that by saying this he's like standing with women, but actually in the way he is speaking about women, like there's some sort of like video game that you either like get to the end or you don't. I'm like, you actually sound like a fucking tosser. Correct. You know what I mean? It was like, okay.
SPEAKER_00But if you have to choose between Callum talking about objectifying women as a game to play, or lucky not finishing the joby not finishing the job.
SPEAKER_01Hello, ladies, right in. Who do we choose? I I think we should get Jane from Big Brother to decide as the representative of all women. I reckon she should weigh it. She should weigh in.
SPEAKER_00But yeah, I don't know. I look, I'm gonna presume I want it clear I'm not speaking for all women or anyone that is not had my own experience. And now I get cancelled. But from the conversations I've had with some of my beautiful AFAB friends, they have told me that they would prefer someone to at least finish the job. Because you know, girlies get out there and they're not that much. Sometimes they just want a little bit of do too. Yeah, of course. What a waste. Imagine getting all ready and then you suck some guy off and he's like, cheers, boy. Yeah, that would suck, but I don't know. At least if you got a cold.
SPEAKER_01As Paul Mitzi said last week, they do drink a lot on this show. So I feel like I feel like it's you know. Are we really performing at our best? Get down there. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know. Anyways. Anyway, the well look, the nation is divided. Lockie Chucks a huge tantrum, though, which is fabulous. So good. Love watching this. And also, so I missed Anthony's there as well. My favourite character of the whole show, Anthony. You didn't really get much screen time in this. Well, you did at the end, but I was like, when did you enter the house? I must have been doing something else. I don't think you're gonna be like, I was like, oh, so he's there, and Anthony um yeah, decides that he's auditioning for season three.
SPEAKER_00I'm glad that you said this because I felt like we got a bit of that the first time they're on the show. Yeah. A bit of a now's my moment.
SPEAKER_01Well, they're back now, and yeah, love this. Everyone's fucking, and then afterwards they're in the hot tub. Yeah, we didn't even talk about everyone. Everyone fucks this night. It's great. So good. And Anthony's in the hot tub, and Kyle's like, so umarchy, huh? The less hot version of me. What do you think? How'd he go? And Anthony's like, look, performance in Birdwise, I'd have to rate uh Monarchy a solid 6.5, which is a wild thing to say.
SPEAKER_00Great audition, though. Yeah, you got the point. You got the point.
SPEAKER_01And you've got to be messy to get on this show. So well done. And Kyle is living in about the same time it took him to stir the show. Correct. Lily, he runs straight over to Monarchs. He's like, so Monarchy.
SPEAKER_00You'll never guess what I just heard.
SPEAKER_01You'll never guess what I just heard from Anthony. He said you're a dud road. 6.5. In fact, Monarchy's like, What?
SPEAKER_006.5. And then now Monarchy gets all quite emotional. This is like, oh, totally, but it was fun to watch. Like the whole, well, it must be a pretty good 6.5 if you keep coming back. Yeah, yeah, that was great.
SPEAKER_01No, because then Anthony is being a little bitch here. Because then he then he goes over, he's like, Oh, did I upset you? Yeah. I'm like, don't you fucking dare, Anthony?
SPEAKER_00Didn't try to dig out of that hole at all.
SPEAKER_01Chinese like calligraphy tattoos. Anthony. Which I gotta say, I did not notice them before when I was uh going off about how hot Anthony is, and I've got to say, it's giving 6.5.
unknownOoh!
SPEAKER_01Let him know. Yeah. Uh wow, this was great. And then, oh no, I love this. Manaki's over it. He goes, Siebs cunt.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I've not heard seebs in like made me want to bring it back.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I was like, Siebs. Yeah, because it's like, oh, do you want to talk about it?
SPEAKER_00It's like, no, there's nothing to talk about. No, see, cunt. So good.
SPEAKER_01Sieebs cunt was my favorite line of this episode. And yeah, finale next week. Can't wait. It's kicking off. And looks like drama next week. And then also Manaki and Kyle are gonna have a passion.
SPEAKER_00Well, we've got a little teaser of.
SPEAKER_01We get no context though. I feel like it's gonna be like a dare or something.
SPEAKER_00100% it's a drinking game or something. It's a drinking game or dare, and it's yeah, I don't know. Yeah. But also, I don't is it mad bad to say like I don't really need to see that? Like, I don't need to see that. I don't wanna see that. I don't know. Unless there's drama, in which case I'm gonna say that.
SPEAKER_01There will be. But also it's the finale, so I'm not sure.
SPEAKER_00Usually they just kinda if if they don't make out and Kyle immediately say 6.5, I'm gonna be upset.
SPEAKER_016.5.
SPEAKER_00What an episode though. That was top tier. Really good episode.
SPEAKER_01You had the lily coming back in the moon boot visual amazing, spraying everyone. You had 6.5, you had Lockie having a tantrum about not everything, finishing off a bird. Sorry. Fucking hell. These people.
SPEAKER_00And you know, for this show, it had the big three, it had fucking, it had fighting. And most importantly, farting. Oh what were you gonna say?
SPEAKER_01I was gonna say family. Oh, that would have made more sense. No. There was farting. There was farting. Yeah. There always Jane would also have opinions on.
SPEAKER_00Oh I'm you're getting me so stirred up for Big Brother. I've got to watch Big Brother. I've got to catch up. Yeah. Uh cool. Well thanks, Curtis. Thanks for having me on again.
SPEAKER_01Anytime. Bye-bye. Bye-bye.
SPEAKER_00Bye-bye.
