Speaker 1: Welcome to First things First. I'm Brook Blerton. My pronouns
Speaker 1: are she and her.
Speaker 2: I'm Maddie Mills my pronouns are he and him. And
Speaker 2: before we get started, I'd like to acknowledge the custodians
Speaker 2: of the land on which we record, and for me
Speaker 2: today it's the Gadigal people, even though I have my eyes.
Speaker 1: Closed, and for me also on Galligal who act.
Speaker 2: It is so exciting because we're in studio.
Speaker 1: I know you rarely come to Sydney, but here we are.
Speaker 2: I'm going to put a petition out there and I
Speaker 2: want our viewers maybe to sign it. Brook Blurton should
Speaker 2: be moving to Sydney because what you're going to get
Speaker 2: today is a whole next level of First things First.
Speaker 2: Whenever we're in studio, it is always fun.
Speaker 1: It is always a good time.
Speaker 2: So what is it going to take for you to
Speaker 2: pack up and move to Sydney?
Speaker 1: Maybe like a good job? Yeah, job that would get
Speaker 1: me here yep, and not just for a temporary time,
Speaker 1: like a full time something manifesting.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm manifesting.
Speaker 1: I mean I'm here to do the film, so I'll
Speaker 1: be here for quite a while. So I mean that
Speaker 1: would be a little tester.
Speaker 2: A little tester. Yeah, and I'm going to make sure
Speaker 2: you have the best experience in Sydney so that your
Speaker 2: mind is blown off, like what this city could be
Speaker 2: like for you, because I feel like you have bad
Speaker 2: experiences that you know, linked to this city from when
Speaker 2: you were younger and living as an eighteen year old
Speaker 2: and Zetland like.
Speaker 1: I was twenty one, but I was pretty young. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I mean, like, I don't know. I do love
Speaker 1: Sydney for work because there's so much happening and when
Speaker 1: I come here, I'm like, Okay, it's all exciting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it just doesn't really feel I don't know, like a
Speaker 1: place that I would probably call home, Like I just
Speaker 1: know that I would be here and i'd be in
Speaker 1: the hustle, and I don't want to get lost in that,
Speaker 1: Like I've already kind of got lost in that.
Speaker 2: You're lost in it in a gray like city that
Speaker 2: doesn't have much to offer. Sorry. I know many people
Speaker 2: from Melbourn probably listen to us, but it's just not
Speaker 2: your vibe. You know, it's not your vibe.
Speaker 1: Okay, what is my vibe?
Speaker 2: Your vibe is a city that is surrounded by nature,
Speaker 2: so that on the weekends you can get out and
Speaker 2: be in the sun and have it ventures with your
Speaker 2: friends that are like adventurous. Who cares about going to
Speaker 2: sitting in a bar and drinking a cocktail or seeing
Speaker 2: like being indoors all the time? You know, I feel
Speaker 2: like you are an outdoorsy girl and Melbourne doesn't offer
Speaker 2: you that.
Speaker 1: I think I gave it enough time that I've needed to,
Speaker 1: and I think it is time for change.
Speaker 2: And I think if you're going to go home eventually
Speaker 2: to Perth, you need to give this city another shot.
Speaker 1: All right, Well what are we And we're in October,
Speaker 1: so we've got three months, all right, four months.
Speaker 2: Well, the film at the end of the year is
Speaker 2: going to be a good tester, as you said, And
Speaker 2: I think that at the end of that we can
Speaker 2: have another conversation.
Speaker 1: And we'll come okay, business consultant, We'll.
Speaker 2: Circle back to this. I'll find a job for you
Speaker 2: that you'll love.
Speaker 1: Money is now my co host slash lifestyle and manager manager. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I need one of those.
Speaker 2: You know. There's a lot of acting opportunity here. Ye.
Speaker 1: True. Well, now that I'm actually an actor, I can
Speaker 1: actually say that I am.
Speaker 2: It's just kind of funny if you don't want.
Speaker 1: To add to the resume of fucking shit things that
Speaker 1: I'm doing so.
Speaker 2: Long the amount of things that have come out of
Speaker 2: your mouth about your experiences of work, like on this podcast,
Speaker 2: it's so weird You've got a receipt that is just
Speaker 2: like I.
Speaker 1: Mean likewise, but it's like you have to do the
Speaker 1: shitty jobs to enjoy the good ones. Yeah, but then
Speaker 1: I'm like, I have too many options in a case
Speaker 1: where I love doing so much because I need variety
Speaker 1: and change. Yeah, but at the same time, I need
Speaker 1: consistency and stability. So it's like such a can intuitive
Speaker 1: of like like I don't know, I just I never
Speaker 1: know what I want. That's the whole thing. But it's
Speaker 1: funny because Capricorns are like really quite serious. I think
Speaker 1: I've been a bit too serious, Like I think I
Speaker 1: need to have a bit of fun.
Speaker 2: Oh well, this is not the city for fun, I
Speaker 2: must admit, but we will make it fun.
Speaker 1: Why why sitting all the time for fun?
Speaker 2: I would say Sydney in the summer. No, in the summer,
Speaker 2: you can make it fun. But what I will say
Speaker 2: is like this city had a massive change around a
Speaker 2: decade ago, and before that time, this was the city
Speaker 2: to be in. This was the city in our country
Speaker 2: that was, you know, recognized as one of the funnest
Speaker 2: places to be and I had a really vibrant nightlife.
Speaker 2: Now it's trying to find itself again and I feel
Speaker 2: like they're shifting away from Sydney.
Speaker 1: Gone in the closet.
Speaker 2: Do you reckon Sydney?
Speaker 1: Well, I mean it's gone back into the closet.
Speaker 2: It feels a little bit like that. But what I
Speaker 2: will say is that Sydney should really amplify what it
Speaker 2: knows and what it's great at, and that is it
Speaker 2: is a harvest city. Let's beach. Let's talk beaches, beach clubs.
Speaker 1: You know, I want, I want this city to like Okay, well, okay,
Speaker 1: let's come on. I want to ask a question. This
Speaker 1: is such a random question. I've just thought about it
Speaker 1: in the moment. Okay, So if if each state or
Speaker 1: city was a type of person and star sign, what
Speaker 1: do they do as a job? What would each city
Speaker 1: or state be?
Speaker 2: Okay, that's a really good question.
Speaker 1: So what is Sydney.
Speaker 2: I actually think Sydney's probably close to a Gemini or
Speaker 2: an Aquarius.
Speaker 1: Okay, the fun uncle, the fun aren't the aren't the
Speaker 1: gay uncle.
Speaker 2: I think Sydney is like the cool.
Speaker 1: Cousin, the cool cousin ye that you want to keep
Speaker 1: going and hanging out with, but like distant.
Speaker 2: Probably don't have much depth. But a pretty you know,
Speaker 2: like the pretty the pretty cousin, but doesn't have much depth.
Speaker 1: And what is Melbourne?
Speaker 2: Melbourne is the quirky emo cousin and probably the cousin
Speaker 2: that's you know, quite alternative and wearing very smart.
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely.
Speaker 2: It might even be in a rock band trying to
Speaker 2: find itself, continuously find itself, you know, probably does try it,
Speaker 2: try doing a lot of different things. Maybe you know,
Speaker 2: plays in a band on the weekend. Might do you know,
Speaker 2: acting yoga, probably chai, late drinker, maybe March.
Speaker 3: Actually I think they're a virgo, a virgo okayist okay,
Speaker 3: I actually think they could be a Capricorn in your
Speaker 3: triple capricorn.
Speaker 1: But they're too serious, it's quite okay. What's the Norman territory?
Speaker 2: Oh fucking rogue, let me tell you what is the
Speaker 2: Northern territory? You know? Star signs? What is the star sign?
Speaker 2: That is just a bit scorpio, Ah, scorpio or a cancer.
Speaker 1: Come on, cancers are emotional, I don't think. Yeah, maybe
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I think a scorpio like fire.
Speaker 1: Yeah. True.
Speaker 2: Probably Northern Territory. Whenever I'm there, it feels like it's
Speaker 2: just everyone's having a festival every day of the year,
Speaker 2: like it's a party. It's like, okay, I mean, I
Speaker 2: do got the best time.
Speaker 1: I thought it was going to be the road uncle
Speaker 1: that's always out fishing and boating and that you just
Speaker 1: see him like probably exactly. Yeah, Okay, Perth, Okay, I
Speaker 1: think I've got this one.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: The thing is there's two types of Perth people. There's
Speaker 1: the Golden Triangle type of people, where a bit like
Speaker 1: they will wear their sweaters on like the top of
Speaker 1: their shirts.
Speaker 2: Oh you did that and then you lost it. What's
Speaker 2: the universe telling you shed it? Let it go? Girl?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I lost my jumper today. Perth is like see.
Speaker 1: I would say it's similar to the Northern Territory like
Speaker 1: song wearing, chilled out like relaxed dad vibes.
Speaker 2: Okay they relaxed.
Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty sure, it's relaxed dad, like, ok, don't.
Speaker 2: Give a fuckin probably twenty years behind pretty much. Yeah,
Speaker 2: still says inclusive, but a little bit.
Speaker 1: Non progressive language. Yeah yeah, good may how yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: probably day for it, send it that kind of language,
Speaker 1: but kind of like inspired unemployed kind of vibe.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, okay, Well I think Perth is quite
Speaker 2: good looking and so that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well then that could be your hot cousin too.
Speaker 2: That's probably doesn't grown up in the unemployed.
Speaker 1: Golden tranquil throw them on the But about Hobart, Oh.
Speaker 2: An absolute fucking hoe.
Speaker 1: You reckon yep slat for an island.
Speaker 2: The reason I say that is because people always go
Speaker 2: on not even called Tasmania. We don't even call it Tasmania.
Speaker 2: We call it Hobart because there's not much to offer there.
Speaker 2: But you do go there if you want to really
Speaker 2: cute weekend away with like you know, it's it's your rendezvous, it's.

Speaker 1: a little bit more silly.
Speaker 2: We didn't leave anyone out, did we. We've done essay.
Speaker 2: We needed to essay. What is essay?
Speaker 1: I think essay is a bit of a grandma.

Speaker 2: to dig at essay because they're hosting the second day
Speaker 2: and the essay premier came over and he did his
Speaker 2: opening address and he said, you know, oh, I'm so
Speaker 2: happy to be collaborating with New South Wales, but we
Speaker 2: must say that essay is, you know, the best state
Speaker 2: in the country. And all I could think was like,
Speaker 2: how the fuck do you have the confidence to stand
Speaker 2: up there represent the shitter state in the country and
Speaker 2: be like this is the best state. It's like, it's
Speaker 2: just it's not on the radar.
Speaker 1: It's a sleepy grammar. If it was in Sleepy Gradma.
Speaker 2: If it was in Big Brother, they'd be saying essays
Speaker 2: playing under the radar, playing under the.
Speaker 1: Oh, the underdogs, the underdogs. Yeah yeah, I mean that's why,
Speaker 1: you know, I hope we haven't racked on your state.
Speaker 1: If you are from different states, we.
Speaker 2: Love you all, but also tell us what you think.
Speaker 1: Honestly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sure this is going to be the social video.
Speaker 2: So you let you let us know what you think
Speaker 2: about this episode. We're doing a bit of.
Speaker 3: Like a ask us anything, Yeah, and we've got some
Speaker 3: questions and these are some of the most googled questions,
Speaker 3: and some of them are surprising.
Speaker 2: Some of them aren't. Like, I mean, who is Maddie
Speaker 2: Mills's partner? That's actually quite surprising for me. The people
Speaker 2: don't know that, not that they don't know who it is,
Speaker 2: but who's looking at that?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 2: Who is looking for my partner? Do they want him?
Speaker 2: Do they want me? I want to know.
Speaker 1: Maybe they heard on the podcast and they were like,
Speaker 1: who is it?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Maybe? Or is it like the Colombian officials is
Speaker 2: getting deported now?
Speaker 1: Maybe?
Speaker 2: But let's go through these. Okay, let's go one at
Speaker 2: a two.
Speaker 1: Because he just racked on the SA government. They're like,
Speaker 1: I want to you. Okay, all right, let's go through them.
Speaker 1: So all right, first one, what did you say? Who's
Speaker 1: Maddie's partner?
Speaker 2: Let's let's do one at a time, all right, go
Speaker 2: for go. What is Brooke Blurton doing? Now?
Speaker 1: What the fuck am I not doing? That's the question,
Speaker 1: that's the real question, guys.
Speaker 2: Yeah, who aren't you doing?
Speaker 1: There?
Speaker 2: It is there?
Speaker 1: It is Don set.
Speaker 2: But yeah, so what are you doing? Tell us?
Speaker 1: Okay? So currently I well, I'm studying acting at full
Speaker 1: time at Howard Fine and three days a week. I
Speaker 1: also work as a youth worker as a boarding coordinator
Speaker 1: at MITZ, which is a Belwardine Indigenous transition school. I've
Speaker 1: just finished my second book of a sequel for teenage fiction,
Speaker 1: so I've written written two books. I am also working
Speaker 1: on a film in a couple of weeks. So are
Speaker 1: we actually acting? Which is fun?
Speaker 2: Amazing?
Speaker 1: I work as a podcast host yeah, at Nova, I
Speaker 1: do social media, which is my job. I am a
Speaker 1: dog mum, I am a sister, and I fucking do everything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do a lot. I do a lot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wear many hats. I also obviously host and
Speaker 1: do a bit of presenting work and a lot of
Speaker 1: speaking work about my story and everything. So quite a bit.
Speaker 1: But I mean, I love it, you know, I said.
Speaker 1: I love variety, and I love change, and I love
Speaker 1: keeping my plate full. Yeah. But yeah, I think people
Speaker 1: are always really curious to know what I do. And
Speaker 1: I think it's because they can't set down to one role, yeah.
Speaker 2: Which I love. I love being able to be flexible.
Speaker 1: And it's called freelance guys and look it up.
Speaker 2: But also isn't that just great as a creative to
Speaker 2: be able to choose and be able to create different
Speaker 2: things and have different things going at once, Like for me,
Speaker 2: I know that's the reason I'm not locked into any
Speaker 2: contract at a network. As soon as I'm locked into
Speaker 2: a contract at a network, I feel like everything else
Speaker 2: goes out the window. I don't want a full time job.
Speaker 2: I want to drive the car where I want to
Speaker 2: drive it and like metaphorically, and do what I want
Speaker 2: to do, you know, with all the different things that
Speaker 2: are going on in my world. So I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 2: being lockdown ain't the vibe for me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, in terms of jobs, but my relationship you locked Yeah, Okay,
Speaker 1: next question, So who is your partner?
Speaker 2: My partner is Denny. We've been together for a year now,
Speaker 2: which is super cute, cute and it flew by. Do
Speaker 2: you remember when I first got with him and the
Speaker 2: conversations like, how has that been a year? I know,
Speaker 2: but it's been great, Like we have.
Speaker 1: Listened to the pod for this long he'd actually know
Speaker 1: how it sort of evolved, which is pretty quiet cute.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really cute. We were together in the beginning,
Speaker 2: we broke up, then we got back together and it's
Speaker 2: been a year since we got back together and really
Speaker 2: sort of figured out what we wanted and it's going,
Speaker 2: you know, really well. So he's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful man,
Speaker 2: and I'm so happy. Sometimes I feel like I'm really
Speaker 2: I like this feeling of feeling grateful when someone's in
Speaker 2: your life. You know. Sometimes I just look at him
Speaker 2: and I'm just think, oh, I'm so grateful. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: I'm sure he thinks the same, and if he doesn't,
Speaker 2: he should. Yeah. No, but yeah, So okay, the next
Speaker 2: question is Brooke Blurton single?
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, okay, next okay, Yeah, how tall you?
Speaker 2: I am six foot one, so I'm about one hundred
Speaker 2: and eighty five centimeters tall. I sometimes grow. I'll be
Speaker 2: a little bit taller in the morning because by the
Speaker 2: end of the day my muscles actually weigh down my
Speaker 2: bones and I get a little bit shorter. That's how
Speaker 2: musty I am.
Speaker 1: Does Mad Mills talk ship? Yes?
Speaker 2: Have you seen too hot to Handle? No, because I've
Speaker 2: just I've stolen.
Speaker 1: I actually really admire and love having brain cells.
Speaker 2: Yeah great, because what I just said was direct from
Speaker 2: too hot to handle. There's a guy on there who
Speaker 2: tried to pick up three different girls and he used
Speaker 2: the same pickup line about his hide. It was it
Speaker 2: was just crazy. But yes, I'm just over six foot
Speaker 2: you know on Big boort.
Speaker 1: You that's such a psycho.
Speaker 2: Okay, next, Okay, So what is Brooke Blurton's network? Sugar MoMA?
Speaker 2: Sugar MoMA?
Speaker 1: Why do people want to know that? And I also,
Speaker 1: how do you figure that out? I mean, I could
Speaker 1: tell you how much I earned in the last four years,
Speaker 1: but why do people want to know that?
Speaker 2: Why do people want to know that? Shit? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I think that that's like such a personal thing too. Also,
Speaker 2: don't tell them because of the text part. But don't
Speaker 2: tell them, you know, Like.
Speaker 1: No, I'm like fully transparent about that. I don't really care.
Speaker 1: I mean networth in terms of like net worth what
Speaker 1: you just wanted with masts, Well, I'm a walking dollar sign,
Speaker 1: Like I'm literally just walking around and there's like dollar
Speaker 1: signs on me, Like is that what you want?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: But I don't know. To be honest, guies with you,
Speaker 1: I could tell you what I've earned in the last
Speaker 1: four years, but would it really matter or like, would
Speaker 1: it define my networth. I'm not too sure, no, considering
Speaker 1: like I'm not like an a lister, Like, why do
Speaker 1: you need to know that?
Speaker 2: Totally? And even I would say that even the net
Speaker 2: worths that are searched on the internet, they're always wrong.
Speaker 1: What do you think I'm worth?
Speaker 2: A bag of twistis No.
Speaker 1: You're a dumb dog in the millions? In the millions,
Speaker 1: I'm definitely in the millions, but very low. I think
Speaker 1: I loved very low millions, not like Tones and I,
Speaker 1: whom earned like thirty five million in one like. It
Speaker 1: went from Yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 2: I love that you're a millionaire.
Speaker 1: Thanks, I love that this is.
Speaker 2: Going to be the headline Brooke Blurton is a millionaire?
Speaker 1: Are you still on Getaway?
Speaker 2: I'm not. I mean, I had requests to go on,
Speaker 2: but I was busy. And let's be really honest about Getaway.
Speaker 2: Getaway sounds like an amazing job and an opportunity that
Speaker 2: I will always be grateful for. Yeah, when I went
Speaker 2: into it, I did it because I wanted to make
Speaker 2: a mark in terms of representation. They've never had a
Speaker 2: black fellow on that show. I thought it was super important.
Speaker 2: Get Away When you look at the TV show when
Speaker 2: you're watching it is really really high end and luxury.
Speaker 2: A lot of the time, that's not the experience of
Speaker 2: a host traveling on the show.
Speaker 1: Oh I know.
Speaker 2: Before sunrise you get the last shot at sun said,
Speaker 2: it's very long days of filming. You're not getting paid
Speaker 2: what you think you would be getting paid. You also
Speaker 2: are staying in you know, cheap hotels. It's not luxury.
Speaker 2: So I mean it's I love the show and I
Speaker 2: actually would go back if it aligned with timing. So
Speaker 2: the last time, I was in a play and they
Speaker 2: asked me to do a few things on the show
Speaker 2: and I couldn't do it, so I said no, And
Speaker 2: I've actually said no three times. So I feel like
Speaker 2: maybe they're a little bit like, well fuck you. But
Speaker 2: I feel like if I reached out and I said, hey,
Speaker 2: let's go again, I feel like they might. So at
Speaker 2: the moment, I'm not, and I'm okay with that. I
Speaker 2: feel like I did what I had to do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I agree with you in terms of travel.
Speaker 1: If you guys have you know, listened, it's just kind
Speaker 1: of funny, like people really do think that it's really glamorous.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but when you break.
Speaker 2: It down to locals every day, Like, I mean, it's
Speaker 2: nice to talk to people. I actually really enjoy the conversations,
Speaker 2: but by the end of the day, you're very exhausted.
Speaker 1: Your social batteries.
Speaker 3: Yea.
Speaker 2: And also when you work on a legacy show like that,
Speaker 2: people have been on the show the crew for so
Speaker 2: long and you're coming into those circles and so they've
Speaker 2: already formed extremely close relationships and have all this history,
Speaker 2: and you can feel a little bit like, oh, you know,
Speaker 2: you're I don't know, extra sized or well, not by them,
Speaker 2: but by your own insecurities.
Speaker 1: True.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I had a great time, and I absolutely
Speaker 2: love the team that I've worked with and John Wallshoe
Speaker 2: heads it up over at nine a great man. So
Speaker 2: I would go back, but just has to work for timing. Yeah. Okay,
Speaker 2: So who is the most famous person in your contact list?
Speaker 1: Oh? I don't really have that many famous people, to
Speaker 1: be fair with you, Oh.
Speaker 2: Really, yeah, I don't think so I've got so many, Like.
Speaker 1: I've got athletes and basketballers and reality TV people, but
Speaker 1: I don't really well, yeah, I guess they're all famous,
Speaker 1: but I don't think. I don't have like an A
Speaker 1: lister okay, I mean I think bas Leman would be
Speaker 1: out there for you.
Speaker 2: Bas Leman's up there. I've got Austin Butler's number. I
Speaker 2: have a lot of It's like so cool Australian celebrities numbers.
Speaker 1: I mean I'm a g flip. Yeah, but I mean
Speaker 1: I think they would have probably already changed their number
Speaker 1: by now, like a million times, you know how like
Speaker 1: celebrities do that all the time. Yeah, but I don't
Speaker 1: have anyone.
Speaker 2: I have models numbers, like really famous models numbers. But yeah, I.
Speaker 1: Think people really think this is so funny because these
Speaker 1: questions are hilarious. I think people think we're like once
Speaker 1: you go in TV like this big shot like I
Speaker 1: don't know, like obviously doing The Bachelor atte I just
Speaker 1: kind of see myself still like this little CANRVI and
Speaker 1: girl like country Bumpkin, Like every time I look in
Speaker 1: the mirror, like that's what I see.
Speaker 2: You know, everyone would want to want his number is
Speaker 2: in my phone, Latrell Mitchell's son. People would want that
Speaker 2: number I want. I'm like, what, Yeah, that's the number
Speaker 2: that you never not caring. My brothers would want that
Speaker 2: number so badly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, my brothers probably as well, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I feel like I wouldn't even I don't like message.
Speaker 1: I'm the worst text. My friends told me this all
Speaker 1: the time, Like I much rather just jump on the phone.
Speaker 2: You know whose number I saw last Thursday night though,
Speaker 2: Charlie XCX's number on who bes Loman's phone. So I
Speaker 2: was at dinner with him and and he was emailing
Speaker 2: her and he's like, well, check out this email. And
Speaker 2: she's had sent him this email and at the end
Speaker 2: I had her phone number and I was like, oh
Speaker 2: my god. And she was like, thanks for being so
Speaker 2: brat to bats and I was like, that.
Speaker 1: Is actually such a funny conversation. That is that is
Speaker 1: so iconic. Yeah, let's see, I'm going through and right,
Speaker 1: and I'd say that I have like all I have
Speaker 1: AFL players who are friends, basketballers that are friends, like
Speaker 1: you know, all kind of I guess social media friends,
Speaker 1: but like none of them would be like a lists celebrities.
Speaker 2: I've had many people ask me for your number.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you get fucked, and I've given it.
Speaker 2: To most of them. Actually, so I'm don't don't.
Speaker 1: I don't give my number out. That's why I don't
Speaker 1: have anyone. I literally have the funniest thing I've just
Speaker 1: seen in my phone one, two, three, four, five, five
Speaker 1: people with the same last name. And it was a
Speaker 1: guy that I dated, like years and years and years ago,
Speaker 1: and his whole family. That's his whole family in my phone,
Speaker 1: Like I have his mum, dad, two sisters and him.
Speaker 2: I actually pretty sure. Oh my god, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 1: Let's see see that's it. I literally don't have anyone.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 1: Actually, my most famous person would be a politician, and
Speaker 1: I feel like it would be Jonna Stuart.
Speaker 2: Oh no, I've got Tom Hanks's assistants number, not his number,
Speaker 2: that's a flex. Yeah, that's a flex. Alton Mason is
Speaker 2: like he's an alist model. I've got his number, Todd
Speaker 2: Recall's number. I mean, look, I've got a few people's numbers. Okay,
Speaker 2: what's the next one for you?
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, who's the most famous person you've worked with? Then?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Tom Hanks?
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, all right, next, Okay, what would be your
Speaker 1: dream gig?
Speaker 2: My dream gig honestly would be, and this sounds so stupid,
Speaker 2: but to be a judge on a reality TV show
Speaker 2: like X Factor or The Voice. But I can't sing,
Speaker 2: so it'd have to be like Australia's Got Talent. That
Speaker 2: would actually be my dream job. I would love to
Speaker 2: sit on a panel and tell people what I thought
Speaker 2: about their talent. Honestly, if Kate Richie can do it,
Speaker 2: I'm doing it.
Speaker 1: What is Kate Richie?
Speaker 2: She was on Australia's Got Talent amazing, you know, so
Speaker 2: I feel like it's not like.
Speaker 1: What are the other judge shows that we.
Speaker 2: Have Australia's Got Talent X factors singer but for mass
Speaker 2: singer you could be you don't have to be a singer.
Speaker 2: But I think like I would want to be on
Speaker 2: Australia's Got Talent because then I'm not talking to a
Speaker 2: singer who I known nothing about, you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: Like I don't know how to sing. Anybody gonna listen
Speaker 2: to me. But Australia's Got Talent. I've got talent and
Speaker 2: I could share with you what I think about you.
Speaker 2: Or I could host the show.
Speaker 1: So for me, right up your own show and there
Speaker 1: you go basilem and hit him up. Yeah, got a show.
Speaker 2: Definitely, It's definitely cross my mind. But yeah, that would
Speaker 2: be my actually, actually I would sit on that pedal
Speaker 2: for the rest of my life. I'd sit there and
Speaker 2: do that show six months a year and no way
Speaker 2: because that, trust me.
Speaker 1: You'd get so content and I feel like you wouldn't
Speaker 1: grow as a person.
Speaker 2: The bank would.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but what can you do with money?
Speaker 2: Like I would work six months a year and travel
Speaker 2: for six months, take me and my kids and my
Speaker 2: husband around the world.
Speaker 1: So you've thought about this plan that sounds like hell
Speaker 1: to me?
Speaker 2: Oh that is you know what? That is my dream of.
Speaker 1: I could only holiday for a certain period of time,
Speaker 1: and then I get bored. Now there's only certain amount
Speaker 1: of books and cocktails that you can drink and read
Speaker 1: that I would be like, yeah, I need to go
Speaker 1: back to work. I need to be stimulated on the trip.
Speaker 2: I'd bring a nanny, who would be a friend, who
Speaker 2: would who for my child?
Speaker 1: Ye. Wow, People do actually live this life, though, which
Speaker 1: is funny.
Speaker 2: It's my aspiration.
Speaker 1: Wow, I love this for you.
Speaker 2: What's on your bucket list? Tell us a couple of items.
Speaker 1: What is on my bucket list? To be fair, I've
Speaker 1: actually been reflecting on this a lot because I was saying, like,
Speaker 1: I actually just don't really know what I want. For years,
Speaker 1: I was so determined and I was like, this is
Speaker 1: what I want and I'm going for it. But at
Speaker 1: the same time in my life, like I feel so
Speaker 1: content with what I have, but I also need change.
Speaker 1: I just don't know what that change is and it's
Speaker 1: kind of uneasy and it's a bit unsettling. And I
Speaker 1: think I went through this, I guess prior to the Bouchlorette,
Speaker 1: so was in Perth. I was getting really content in Perth.
Speaker 1: It's like every three years that I change and I
Speaker 1: do something like drastic or like big and it changes
Speaker 1: me wit better.
Speaker 2: It's acting this time.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, and I think maybe that's my next three
Speaker 1: years is just to focus on making it as an actor.
Speaker 1: And I don't just want to be an Australian actor.
Speaker 1: I actually want to expand and actually be a little
Speaker 1: bit more international and a bit more global. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: I think like that is probably the change that I
Speaker 1: need and the push that I need. But at the
Speaker 1: same time, I'm also sacrificing a lot of the stuff
Speaker 1: that I've worked hard to get as well. So like
Speaker 1: my I'm really passionate about my writing and like doing
Speaker 1: you know, more books, but I'm also really passionate about
Speaker 1: my youth work jobs. So I guess I'm in the
Speaker 1: process of just looking at what maybe a foundation would
Speaker 1: look like and having a setup, and I guess sort
Speaker 1: of managing it from that but remotely. But I think
Speaker 1: that would be really difficult and i'd probably have to
Speaker 1: stay in Australia for a little bit longer, which I
Speaker 1: didn't really have plans on my bucket list. Is that
Speaker 1: I would love to move overseas, possibly to New York.
Speaker 1: I just feel like it's kind of the vibe that
Speaker 1: I like. I recently watched this show called Infidelity, and
Speaker 1: Zoe Kravitz, isn't it And I just think like her
Speaker 1: and I she's kind of the vibe or like the
Speaker 1: person that I sort of aspire And I hadn't really
Speaker 1: had aspirations of what kind of actor I would like
Speaker 1: to be, but I feel like her vibe is really cool.
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't say that I'm like a cool girl,
Speaker 1: you know, I wouldn't say, like at the top of
Speaker 1: the list that I'm like, oh Brooks just like really cool,
Speaker 1: you know, like everyone's like, oh it Brooks really nice,
Speaker 1: you know, Like I'm nice, I'm friendly, and I'm approachable,
Speaker 1: But I just don't know. I kind of want to
Speaker 1: go live my cool girl dreams over in New York
Speaker 1: at some point. I don't know when or when, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know when I'm going to get there. But
Speaker 1: that's I guess at the top of the buckle list. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess love it. The bucket list as well is
Speaker 1: to to buy a house, but I think, yeah, I
Speaker 1: think that's going to have to be on hold for
Speaker 1: a little bit. I would also love.
Speaker 2: Buy a house and just leave it here, get in
Speaker 2: the market and go and explore it. Come back.
Speaker 1: Oh, Actually on my bucket list is to get my
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to beat this out. But surgery, what
Speaker 1: we are not that out?
Speaker 2: Come on?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can just put a cat over my mouth, okay,
Speaker 1: like me, my laby of plasty.
Speaker 2: Why do you need one?
Speaker 1: I don't need one, No one needs What is that?
Speaker 2: Can you explain it to me? Because I have no
Speaker 2: idea what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: I think it's actually more psychological and it's much deeper
Speaker 1: than this. And I know this is a bit of
Speaker 1: a silly episode, so it's fine. I can make it
Speaker 1: a little bit silly, but for me, because of like
Speaker 1: my ex I guess sexual trauma. Growing up, I have
Speaker 1: always had this like deep hate towards my body. So
Speaker 1: I feel like this will make me feel more confident
Speaker 1: in myself and make me actually like her. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: I know I've been through therapy guys, because and people
Speaker 1: will be like, yeah, but you're just succeeding to like society,
Speaker 1: society's view of what men think women's body should be,
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah, And I'm like, no, I want
Speaker 1: it to be like not perfect, but perfect for me.
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? So what, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: this like went.
Speaker 2: To a bit of a time. I'm interested, girl, trust me,
Speaker 2: I'm there. I'm right on this. I want to know
Speaker 2: what does that surgery entail for women? Like it doesn't
Speaker 2: have to be talking about your what you want done,
Speaker 2: but what is the surgery.
Speaker 1: Well, a laby pluster is just pretty much you're considering
Speaker 1: getting a part of your laby are pretty much like
Speaker 1: cut off.
Speaker 2: Is that the flaps, it's.
Speaker 1: Your souvir labor menora, so it's not your flaps, So
Speaker 1: your flaps are on the side, and then you're LaBier
Speaker 1: is in the inside and there's like two layers, so
Speaker 1: there's your LaBier something, and then there's Labia Manora, and
Speaker 1: sometimes the outside of Labia can actually like stick out,
Speaker 1: and I just don't feel calls exactly.
Speaker 2: I know, I know what you're talking about now.
Speaker 1: Like I went to Mona recently and I saw the
Speaker 1: Volver wall and I loved it. I actually loved it.
Speaker 1: And I was like, Wow, look at all these women
Speaker 1: celebrating like all their different Labyers and Volvers, and I
Speaker 1: was like, I loved it, But I just don't love mine.
Speaker 1: I wish I did, and I haven't gone through fucking
Speaker 1: years of fucking therapy to try and overcome that, that
Speaker 1: that frustration and that hate. So I'm getting surgery.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it, And I'm happy for you. If that's
Speaker 2: you know what that's going to make you feel confident,
Speaker 2: you go for it, because I feel the same about
Speaker 2: certain parts of my body. I've always wanted to get
Speaker 2: a nose.
Speaker 1: Job, yeah exactly. Yeah, and I've spoken to you about it.
Speaker 2: And the reason I want to get a nose job
Speaker 2: is because I always found that my nose wasn't straight
Speaker 2: and it really fucking irks me. But I've heard a loft,
Speaker 2: but I'm going to get it.
Speaker 1: He's got a great nose, and I don't.
Speaker 2: It's not straight, it's it's crooked.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but looking at it now, it doesn't look crooked.
Speaker 1: But you see it every day exactly exactly. See see
Speaker 1: you get it.
Speaker 2: I get it, and I know yours, my nose and
Speaker 2: your LaBier. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like, where are you going with that?
Speaker 1: I was like, they're not coming near one.
Speaker 2: No, they're not dirty dogs. I don't know about you,
Speaker 2: but I think that's maybe a good place to wrap
Speaker 2: it up. Wrap it up. Well, you know what, I'm
Speaker 2: really excited for you and your surgery, and I hope
Speaker 2: you are for me, and we'll come come back.
Speaker 1: I'm having a I don't know, a rest in peace
Speaker 1: for Gina party like or a resurrection. I'm not too sure.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know, and who.
