Speaker 1 (00:00):
So this is a singer called Kate Nash from the UK.
She's from the UK. She's taking a leaf out of
Lily Allen's book and she's going on only fans because
remember Lily Allen's putting her feet on only fans for
people who are turned on by feet, and that's how
she's making more money than she makes out of her music.
Or Kate Nash reckons that her tours actually end up
making losses rather than profits. So she's going to try
(00:22):
selling photos of her bum on only fans to make
some money. And she says she's a big fan of
bums and she sees them as the perfect combination of
comedy and sexuality.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
International Correspondence with Ends and eye Insurance, Peace of mind
for New Zealand business.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Kate'son for a surprise if she thinks that the people
on only fans are just going to buy pictures of
her bums to have a laugh at them. Murriold's Ossie
correspondence with me now.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Heymus speechless, speechless?
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Would you put on what's the bit your best asset?
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Muz?
Speaker 1 (00:53):
What would you put on only fans to make money?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
The back of my head?
Speaker 1 (00:57):
You reckon? Do you reckon, there's a market today for radium.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Are going a great face for radio? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:02):
I reckon. If you draw pictures on the back of
your head, you probably will find some people who pay for.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
That, Thank you very much.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Hey, so who is this National Center to getting cold
feet about the social media ban yet?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Look we're not sure. I mean I've not seen his
or her name mentioned. There was a joint party room
and there was some opposition within the opposition about the
government's plan to basically ban sixteen year olds and under
from getting on social media platforms. It didn't matter because
I mean Dutton was always Peter Duton was always going
to carry the day. And a couple of you know,
(01:36):
getting cold feet around the edges and the Nationals, that's
not going to worry Peter Dutton for a heartbeat. I mean,
the fact of the matter is no one knows much
about it. It's easy for the opposition to fall in
behind the government and say, look, we're protecting kids, but
are they really. I mean, you know, how the hell
is this new law going to be policed? What will
happen to the big companies, you know, your big facebooks
(01:57):
and whatnot, tiktoks? If kids are found on there. I
mean children have been on there on television. Maybe he's
saying it's going to take us thirty seconds to get
around whatever. Say, you know, screening that they're going to
bring in. It's just nonsense. And other critics over here
is saying, why don't you take on the gambling industry.
It's making billions at the cost of a lot of
(02:18):
people's mental health or tax sugary drinks. It's turning out,
you know, bluddy flotillas of fat kids because they guzzling
coke all day. I mean, these are tough things, but
the government won't take on nor all the opposition.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Interesting, interesting take on it. Hey, what's going on here? Okay,
So we've got the people who've died in layoffs because
they have had this mythan all. And somebody, one of
the friends is now doing their own investigation.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Why well, because he thinks the whole thing stinks. This
is a fellow who met the two young Danish women's
best friends. They met in Vietnam, and you know, as
young people do you and I did it, both of us. Look,
we'll see you next week over the border in Laos.
We'll meet up at this little place I've heard this
backpacking hostel's pretty good. The guys got there and he's
(03:04):
found both of his friends are either dead or they
were in hospital. They couldn't be contacted, and so he said,
hang on a second, this does not feel right. You've
got at least eight people dead, including two beautiful young
Australian women you know, and they were besties too. They
were nineteen years old, drunk methanol where they drink spiked
(03:24):
or was it simply a case of drinking bootleg liquor?
We don't know. But the fellow who's now conducting his
own operations says he was fobbed off given contradictory information.
He wants to find out exactly what happened.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
It's good to talk to you, mate, Thanks for running
us through that. It's Mariold's Australia correspondent. For more from
