Send us a text

Welcome back to The Goss episodes here on the Aussie English podcast!Man, it's been awhile since my dad Ian and I got together on the podcast and talked about stuff in and out of Australia.And guys, we get back on the podcast today with this sensational bitch slapping that happened in the recent Academy Awards night!I'm sure you've seen tons of memes right now, but this episode is about Chris Rock, who hosted the 2022 Oscars and made a joke about Will Smith's wife Jada. While Will took the joke lightly at first, he noticed Jada looking upset when he glanced over to her. Then Will got up, walked onto the stage where Chris Rock was standing, and bitched slapped the host.20 million viewers around the planet saw what happened and people have dubbed it 'the slap of the century'.Listen in today on what we think about Chris Rock being a brave & smart guy who did the best he could in that very difficult situation, what we think of Will Smith's audacious behaviour as a top Hollywood celebrity, and how we think it may ruin his career.What about you? Would you call this kind of behaviour appropriate for a supposedly prestigious award ceremony?Let me know what you think!
