1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:01,240
Speaker 1: And Whippers.

2
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 2: Celebrity Apprentice, it was down to Darren mcmullon Benji Marshall

3
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 2: final last night that raised as much money as they

4
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 2: can for their charity. This is what happened.

5
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 3: How much money did Darren raise?

6
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 4: Darren raised one hundred and seventy two thousand, six hundred

7
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 4: and seventeen dollars.

8
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 3: Benji you raised.

9
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 5: It's three hundred and eighty seven.

10
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 3: Thousand, one hundred and five dollars. Benji, you are the

11
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 3: winner of Celebrity Apprentice.

12
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: Just in the shitty, Benji, can I get a higher?

13
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 2: No? You can? Night checking when you were doing that

14
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 2: with Journey Kits and that was hilarious.

15
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: That was good man. It was the whole experience of

16
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: Celebrity Apprentice, as you would know. But it's one I'll

17
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: never forget and probably one I'll never do again. It

18
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: was tough, it was hard, like the our we filmed,

19
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: some of the challenges we had to do, like you

20
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: put yourself out of your comfort zone. But the best

21
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: part is like my charity, and you just heard how

22
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,839
Speaker 1: much money we made minus to the charity bench Souse Kids,

23
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 1: Yes as young Indigenous based charity who helped underprivileged youth,

24
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: Indigenous youth, go to school, go to work and health

25
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: and give them a chance to try and live their dreams,

26
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 1: which for some of them just going to school, it's unbelievable. Yeah,

27
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: we're fund their program for the next three years.

28
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 3: That's awesome. What a result. What was the toughest part

29
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 3: bench of the show?

30
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: I guess dealing with people really asking people for money

31
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 1: is hard, but dealing with different personalities or celebrities, sure.

32
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: And the first day I walked in, I sort of

33
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: made a joke, so where's the celebrities go down?

34
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 4: Too?

35
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: Well? That didn't get it either, But I think they

36
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: looked at me like, who are you? But I don't

37
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: see myself as a celebrity, but a lot of people did.

38
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: And working with some of those people was tough. You

39
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: know what.

40
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: One of the moments, and you were up against Darren McMullin,

41
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 2: who did really well on the show as well. But Darren,

42
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 2: you know what, there was a moment on the show

43
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: where Darren spot the dummy.

44
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 3: He found out that his dog had cancer.

45
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,839
Speaker 2: He had a couple of episodes left, right, a couple

46
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 2: of challenges left, but he was really he had to

47
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: go at Lord's sugar and said, I don't have to

48
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 2: be here. You need me here. My life is falling apart,

49
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: and you want me to go out there and do

50
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 2: all this stuff and all that stuff mate as a

51
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 2: mate on the show, and I know you were close

52
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 2: with Darren. I mean, how was that You're juggling stuff

53
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 2: like that? What happened with that stuff?

54
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's tough. In the second to last episode, Darren

55
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: didn't make it to the start of the episode, and

56
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 1: I got really emotional about it. I was talking to

57
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: Darren the night before and he just found out his

58
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 1: dog had cancer, his dad was sick, and he was

59
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: dealing with a lot of things in his personal life

60
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 1: that you know, you just expected to carry on and

61
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: don't worry about that stuff. You just carry on with this.

62
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: But he didn't turn up, and he texted me and said, hey, bro,

63
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: can I talk to you the night before? And I didn't.

64
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: I couldn't. I was in bed with my kids. And

65
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,839
Speaker 1: when he didn't turn up the next day, I thought

66
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: the worst, your mind runs. I did, and I thought,

67
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: maybe I've missed an opportunity to, you know, helped this guy,

68
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: or maybe something happened, but no one told us what

69
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: had happened to him, but he had a heart problem

70
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: that he had to go to hospital with and we

71
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 1: didn't sleep much. The last week was I reckon ten

72
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: hours sleep, yeah, because we were working so hard, so

73
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: you can imagine how tough it was. But Darren's a

74
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: really great guy, and one of the best things to

75
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,679
Speaker 1: come out of the show was our friendship, because I

76
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: didn't think we would be friends at the start. I

77
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: thought he was just this arrogant, cocky guy, and once

78
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: he dropped the exterior and saw inside the real Darren,

79
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: he was actually a really good just great stories.

80
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 2: What I mean.

81
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 3: You had an advantage a little bit in that it

82
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 3: seems to be in your wardrobe. You've got so many

83
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 3: signed jerseys. And one of the highlights recon of the

84
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 3: show was when you went to the market and you

85
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 3: had to raise the money and you were able to

86
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 3: bring out a couple of jerseys sold really well. Compared

87
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 3: to was it Ryan the Model Jacob? What said? He's

88
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 3: name Jared Jared Justin? Justin? So Jared the Model? He

89
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 3: has turned up with a photo? He turned up with

90
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 3: a photo which was a one off sort of half

91
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 3: naked which struggled about it was a one offer. You

92
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 3: had a point of that. It struggled to raise too

93
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 3: much money. I think his mum ended up buying. His

94
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 3: mom did by it. That's the best part. He turns

95
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 3: up with this photo of himself and goes, look, this

96
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 3: is a limited edition gone on, poor bloke.

97
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 1: It's embarrassing on national TV.

98
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,679
Speaker 3: What about the show though that you pitched in about yourself?

99
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: Are they actually going to make that trick?

100
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 3: Because that was gripping? Can we talk about this a

101
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 3: bit more? Says I just want to set this up

102
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 3: because if people didn't see this, there's a pitch to

103
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 3: stand benj and this was how you started it.

104
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 4: I've never ever talked about this publicly. I've never ever

105
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 4: talked about this because it's meant so much to me.

106
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: Comes out with its Marshal look, footsteps, a wi a

107
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: full back.

108
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 4: That's the Benji Marshall that everyone else sees, the Benji

109
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 4: Marshall that everyone else thinks they know. That's not the

110
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 4: real me. You know how I know that because I

111
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 4: don't even know the real me. There's a half of

112
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 4: me missing that I haven't found out about. I don't

113
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 4: know my real dad, I don't know my culture I

114
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 4: don't know my nationality?

115
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 3: Who am I name? Wow?

116
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 5: Are they actually going to make that show?

117
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 3: Because I want to watch? Yeah?

118
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: Yeah they are, they are Yeah, Warner Brothers is making it. Wow,

119
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: So this is this will be a six part series. Well, no,

120
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 1: we don't know if it's exactly going to be that

121
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,559
Speaker 1: that that pitch was supposed to be not really well

122
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: to be made. The story was real, but I didn't

123
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 1: think we'd talk about actually making it off.

124
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 3: The back of it was extraordinary.

125
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 2: So you want to find out about where you where

126
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 2: you're from, your culture? Do you really want to get

127
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 2: Do you want to go and find your father? No?

128
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't want to know who my dad.

129
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: I don't really want to have a relationship with with

130
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 1: my dad.

131
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 2: Don't you want to just confront him binge and just

132
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: not really looking now one of those people though that like,

133
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 2: if there's like toxic people in my life, I can

134
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 2: just cut him off and that's it.

135
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: I'm not really dealing with you again. But I do

136
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 1: have this want to know, like what am I am? I?

137
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: Like English? Am I I don't know?

138
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 3: Like what half? What about it?

139
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 1: I mean I spoke to my mum about it. I

140
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: think she didn't understand that. Well, she didn't know that

141
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: I'd felt like that. But when I was a kid,

142
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: I asked. I asked the question, and the look that

143
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: I saw, I'd never want to ask again, you know so,

144
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: And to be fair, I still don't want to have

145
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 1: to put in that position to ask her.

146
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 3: Now then she would have seen the show, Yeah, she

147
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 3: would have seen that moment. Has she made contact regarding

148
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 3: that topic to me?

149
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we talked all the time.

150
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, But as she said, no, I can tell

151
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 3: you more if you really want to know.

152
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: Nah. No, Well she had me when she was fifteen,

153
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: at a really young age. Yeah, so the whole I

154
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 1: guess circumstance of that people might not understand. And I

155
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 1: don't want to dig there with her. That's that's her story.

156
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: This is more about me and what I'm doing. I

157
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 1: don't I didn't really want to drag her into.

158

00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: my story.

181
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 2: And then you've got Anthony Wiggle, who is a huge

182
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 2: tie loved and the Wiggles performed. The only thing that

183
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 2: was missing Robbie Farrell with his top off up on

184
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 2: the scoreboard or something like that.

185
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: He was there, but they didn't want to put it

186
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: in the edit make the cut.

187
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 3: Because of the bum bag exactly. Zoe must be proud, mate.

188
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's really proud, and she said to me last night,

189
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: I'm proud of so many things, But the thing I'm

190
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: proud of about is everyone gets to see the you

191
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: that I know. Yeah, because everyone has this preconceived idea

192
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: you're just a cocky, arrogant footy player. But there's much

193
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: more than that. And one of the biggest things she

194
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: highlighted was she loved how I was able to just

195
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: share my emotions and vulnerability strangers and encourage men like

196
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: as men, you guys know that we don't speak up enough,

197
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: we don't share our feelings or whatever, but society is

198
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: probably that way. You know, when you cry, like, who's

199
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 1: watching me cry?

200
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:38,959
Speaker 3: We feel? How do you feel?

201
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: Vulnerability is strength to me?

202
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 3: Mate.

203
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 2: We know that you've got a great career on Fox Sports,

204
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 2: this show could be going ahead, and how well you

205
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 2: do in the media, But would you ever think about

206
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 2: going into business?

207
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: Well, it's funny. I actually had a message from Janine,

208
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: who was one of the assistants. She found a boostjuice

209
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: and stuff, and she just said, if you go into business,

210
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: let me know I can give you advice or help

211
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: or whatever. But one thing I did get from the

212
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: show is I learned a lot about that Maybe I

213
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: do know enough to start business if I want to

214
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: get into that path. But I don't know. I just

215
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: feel like I need purpose, you know, and and find

216
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: something that's going to give me a good purpose. And

217
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: part of that show I found that with the charity stuff.

218
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,719
Speaker 3: She didn't suggest there could be a personalized boost choo

219
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 3: Strenk named after you.

220
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: No, didn't you do that in your one.
