  Speaker 2: Yeah.

  Speaker 3: Horrible.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: So five individuals, including his live-in personal assistant, two medical doctors,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: and a supplier known as the Ketamine Queen, were all prosecuted.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: They all pleaded guilty, and all five of them are
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: now in jail.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because if you provide someone with drugs and.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: It kills them. And they die, yeah.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: It's your fault, yeah.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: It's so sad. And I think he tried so hard
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: to get sober and, yeah, it's really, really tragic.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: They were preying on him. Yeah.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: He wrote, his latest book was him talking about being sober.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Oh, really?
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Just didn't last.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: Well, some of it might have been fabricated. He might
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: have been, you know, continuing on.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the whole time.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: A lot of addicts do it in secret.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: You never know, you know.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, the fact that, you know, he's living in
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: personal assistance. How did two medical doctors, how do they.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: But Michael Jackson's doctor was the same. He was giving
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: him like basically anesthetic and they got him. I think
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: he went to jail as well. Yeah. He was paid.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I believe he was paying him 200 K a year
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: from memory just to supply a table. Yeah. And you know,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: the doctor's thinking, oh, well I'm seeing the money.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Anyway, they're doing a kind of Netflix series on Matthew.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: It's called The One About Matthew Perry. So you know
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: all the Friends series, each episode was the one about
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Ross and Rachel, the one about Phoebe.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: This is The One About Him.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: The One About Matthew Perry. The trailer for the series
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: dropped overnight. Have a listen.
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: All great stories have comedy and tragedy in them. And
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: that certainly was Matthew's story. I was extremely happy when
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: I got famous.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Then I was like, uh-oh, this didn't fix what's inside me.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: This didn't do what I thought it was going to do.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: My brother would talk about that feeling of emptiness or
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: loneliness that he couldn't quite fill. He spent $ 7 million
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: trying to get sober. That's how seriously he took his disease.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Well, there you go, Sean. $ 7 million trying to get sober.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: And obviously he'd struggled with this since the 90s.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Even before Friends? Even before.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. He had just struggled with it forever. And
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: like I said, his book that he was promoting at
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: the time when he died, I'm pretty sure it sort
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: of wraps up with him saying, look, I'm sober now.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: And obviously only to find out the way that he
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: ended up going.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: So sad.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: A lot of people will want to watch that on Netflix.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: That'll be a big docker. Yeah, definitely.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: And Andy Cohen, he's the American television host, best known
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: for hosting the late night talk shows, Watch What Happens
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Live with Andy Cohen, you know, with all the reality
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: stars of Salt Lake City and all that on Bravo.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: I think he produced a bunch of it, didn't he, Chelsea? Yeah, so.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: He also executive produced the Real Housewives series. There you go.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Big sort of gay character. He's outlandish and stuff.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: And he's doing really well for himself. His net worth's
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: about 50 mil.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's good.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: So he's doing okay.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: 50 mil US.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: 50 mil US dollars. Anyway, Andy's got two kids, a
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: seven and a four-year-old, and he's just revealed how much
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: he pays his babysitter.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay. So he's worth 50 mil. What does he pay?
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: He pays his babysitter $ 30 an hour.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, you don't get rich by writing a bunch
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: of checks.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: But, like, that is wild because I've got one extra
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: kid and I pay more than that. Yeah.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: He's ripping them off.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: He is ripping off.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: What do you pay for a babysitter?
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: I pay $ 50 an hour.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Is that kind of standard?
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: I think... Like if you're getting a proper babysitter, like
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: if I'm getting my next-door neighbours who are just young
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: teenagers and I'll do all the grunt, I'll do dinner
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: and shower them, they just have to kind of put
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: them into bed, they kind of get $ 20 in bags
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: of clothes from me, right?
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay, yeah.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: But if you're paying like a... preschool educator or an
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: actual babysitter.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Someone in the babysitter's club.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Oh, the babysitter's club, yeah. I think it's anywhere between,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: like for me and three kids, it's anywhere between $ 45
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: and $ 50 an hour. I always just round up because
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: my three kids can sometimes be a handful.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Chelsea's got the average. Yeah, so apparently the Australian average
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: for a babysitter is $ 25 to $ 40 an hour. But
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: how old are those people? We don't know.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: And you're going above to about $ 50. I, yes, I will.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Like I had to get a babysitter to come on
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Monday because Ryan had to go to work and I
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: had to be in here. So she had to be
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: at my house at 7.30.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, for her to be worth her while. Yes.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: But that guy's paying $ 30. $ 30.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: He was chatting to an American interior designer by the
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: name of Jeff Lewis, to which Jeff called him cheap.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: And Jeff said, I probably would have given her $ 100
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: for two hours with two kids.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: But he is. He's ripping them off.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, some people who earn the most money,
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: they are quite often the tightest.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, I know. I know someone who's really well off.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: So do I. And they're a real freaking tight ass.
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: So do I.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
