which was the first time I probably spoke to Danny, and also the last time I spoke to him, I left that evening thinking, this bloke is a flop and he's going to be hated by viewers.
So then when he was eventually introduced to us at the start of the season like this, you can imagine my surprise.
um that's how you should be because that night in Bondi my honest impression of Danny was he was arrogant he was fame hungry and he was a bit of a dickhead and Danny if you're listening sorry if you don't agree with that but that's what I thought and I'm sure you'd say your impression of me was what I'm annoying or I'm fake or whatever Chris and G were shouting at me as you all left in those taxis um but you know this is life isn't it none of us control what others think of us and
Now, you guys will recall how I've spoken a lot about during that evening as I arrived that Chris was like instantly just saying how if I was at his wedding, he would have bashed me.
And then he went on to make like threats about things that he may do to me in the future, which I took to the police and reported to production.
Now, that to me was Chris like trying to assert some toxic male dominance over me, especially given how all the cast like
at the start of filming, they're made aware of me and my reach.
And I suppose the power my content can have in like dictating how the public may perceive them.
And that's,
not me bragging.
That's just a fact.
Remember at the start of every season, the cast, they were all literally warned, never speak to Josh as Channel 9, just see me as this unpredictable force.
They have no leverage over and they can't control what I say or do compared to all the other media, the more mainstream media outlets who they have commercial partnerships with and little deals with where
They kind of use that as leverage.
I always say, you scratch my back, I scratch yours.
But for me, no backs are getting scratched.
I am an island on my own doing my own thing.
And yes, that night, so as I arrived, yeah, Chris, he chose violence.
And Danny took a very different approach to me.
And within minutes of probably meeting, he quizzed me about how much money I made.
