00:00:00.080 That's when I was interviewing. So I interviewed a thousand people in London.
00:00:04.260 That was kind of how I started my media career. I had like a show there.
00:00:08.700 And one of the things that I didn't realize is how many women lie about abuse. 1.00
00:00:15.300 Because when women would say, oh, my abusive ex-boyfriend, you know, a couple of years ago,
00:00:19.620 my initial reaction is to believe them. Right. Because, you know, when someone's telling you
00:00:24.040 something with a really serious face, you think. Yeah. But then someone in the comments section
00:00:28.260 told me to ask like a couple of questions and so really get the specifics yeah and so I'm like well
00:00:33.760 did you file a police report no no well what happened and what happened would be they would
00:00:39.700 tell the story very out of context for example one girl said that she was thrown down a flight
00:00:45.740 of stairs and I'm like that sounds like a terrible thing yeah that sounds like and so I'm like what
00:00:49.880 but the comments kept saying no no ask her more ask her what led up to it yeah like okay what
00:00:54.500 happened long story short she was trespassing okay he told her to leave yeah and they're at
00:01:01.260 the top of the stairs she started an argument in front of his like five-year-old kid she's like 1.00
00:01:06.340 yelling at him and he's pushing her out of the house and yeah okay maybe like i mean it's not
00:01:12.240 smart you shouldn't touch it you should just never touch people but like at the end of the day like
00:01:16.240 well no he i think it's like morally fine to push someone out of your house you told to leave if
00:01:21.860 It's your home and they're trespassing, yeah.
00:01:24.020 But from like a tactical point of view,
00:01:26.480 it's just better to call the cop, you know,
00:01:28.000 cause then she could.
00:01:28.920 Yeah, if you're doing interviews three months later,
00:01:30.760 you should definitely just call the cop.
00:01:32.780 No, no, no, no, no, I meant like.
00:01:34.400 No, I get it.
