Speaker 1: Big announcement this morning. If you're tuning into Sunrise, you

3
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,479
Speaker 1: would have been confusing watching Sunrise and listening to us

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 1: at the same time. You heard all the great radio

5
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,760

Speaker 2: After thirty years working with a seven network, and after

8
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 2: a lot of long nights and thinking about it, the

9
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,599
Speaker 2: time is right for me to step away from Sunrise.

10
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 2: Working in this job and in sport has been my dream.

11
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 2: It's given me the most extraordinary experiences and memories.

12
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 3: I could ever have wished for.

13
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 2: It will treasure all the many good times and all

14
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 2: the many great friendships. I'm so proud to have been

15
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 2: a part of Sunrise, and it's incredibly hard to leave

16
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 2: behind my Sunrise family and the show that we've all

17
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 2: put so much energy into for the last twenty two years.

00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 3: got to say, I mean, Kate, you know what this

22
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 3: is like. It's seven becomes such a part of your

23
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 3: life and your family and to decide that the time

24
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 3: is right, it's time to go as hard at thirty

25
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 3: years of your life. And we sort of build up

26
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 3: Sunrise with a team over a long period and we've

27
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 3: had twenty two years as the number one Bricky show,

28
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 3: which has been an honor. But yeah, it comes a

29
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 3: time we kind of think about other things and life

30
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 3: change a little bit and I need to spend some

31
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 3: time with my mum and help her through her cancer.

32
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 3: So there's a lot to do.

33
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 4: It consumes your life, Barettes. We've been in the industry,

34
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 4: We get up at the same time as you and

35
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 4: it does. It does. It consumes your life and it

36
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 4: knocks you around. Are you going to continue working or

37
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 4: are you just going to have a bit of a

38
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 4: break and focus on family.

39
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 3: Baretts, I'll have a little break, but I can't not work.

40
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 3: I love it. I love sport. You know, it's a

41
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 3: bit of an obsessions. And the thing that's always made

42
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 3: it for me is the viewers for us and the

43
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 3: listeners for you and you go, you know what I'm

44
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 3: talking about. Just that connection you get with people. It's

45
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 3: so special and you know, these jobs are a real privilege.

46
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 3: They let you do things you would never imagine that.

47
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 3: That connection with people right around the country is just

48
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 3: magic for me. So, you know, I want to keep working.

49
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: I love sport, you know really, it's such a such

50
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 3: an awesome thing, as you guys know, to be around.

51
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 3: It's just magic. So I've got a couple of things

52
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 3: on the radar for next year, which looking forward to.

53
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a few rumors flying around that you're going

54
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 1: to get back into professional water skiing. I heard that

55
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: Barrets of speed skiing.

56
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, cycling, I could go pro cycling to the twist branch.

57
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 3: I'm not saying too much guys this day.

58
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: Any other TV shows you'd like Farmer, Well, well, I don't.

00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 3: Mind the amazing race actually travel around the world.

60
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 4: I reckon, you can do Survivor.

61
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love.

62
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 5: This many years in television you're doing Mark. I mean,

63
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 5: I think you're the ultimate survivor.

64
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 4: Barrett. Can I just say with your time there, you

65
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 4: had some amazing moments. It takes me back to like

66
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 4: remember when Bieber went there the first time on the

67
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 4: Sunrise said, yeah, what was that? Oh my gosh, what

68
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 4: was a moment that blew you away? In that twenty

69
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 4: two years on Sunrise. Barett's Bieba was.

70
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 3: Was pretty hard the top and we shut down the city.

71
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 3: We didn't expect it, you know, fa thing with one

72
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 3: direction turned up, you know, one direction, the same deal.

73
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 3: It just just shut the city and it was incredible.

74
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 3: But look, to be honest, it's hard to pick a

75
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 3: great sporting moment because I've been lucky to probably talk

76
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 3: to every great sports person you can imagine. I've been

77
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 3: lucky enough. And that's the thing. If you hang around

78
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 3: long enough, you get to talk to everyone. Yeah, so

79
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 3: it's just been I'm seriously, I'm just in a spin

80
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 3: at the moment. It's all just sort of flooding around

81
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,839
Speaker 3: in my head and it's a bit emotional as well.

82
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 1: It is Brett's I could see you in coshe going

83
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: on tour conversation with Brett not the full Monty.

84
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 5: Right around the country on motorile bikes.

85
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: Make it a TV show?

86
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that I know exactly what you're talking about.

87
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 5: It does become much more than a job. It is

88
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,560
