28
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 7: I'm curious what would be the one piece of nurture

29
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 7: and advice you'd give to yourself fifteen years ago when

30
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 7: you were in Australian idol.

31
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 5: Oh, look, just be true to yourself.

32
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,479
Speaker 6: You know, I think there's so much in this industry

33
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 6: at the moment that honestly just being true to yourself,

34
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 6: doing what feels right to you that I wish someone

35
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 6: had told me that when I was at that age, speaking.

36
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 4: Of being true to yourself. Actually, though, you know there's

37
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 4: anything different about Chess about Jess Malboy, it's not Jess Man.

38
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 7: It's a pretty good chances a body that was a

39
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 7: pretty well fascination, right gott Yeah, well done, well done, Melboy,

40
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 7: You're back on top.

41
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: You're back on top.

42
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 2: We done.

43
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 7: The only thing I was thinking was like, it's weird

44
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 7: that Jess hasn't sung an answer yet. Yeah, case must

45
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 7: be a bit flat today. That's he was good, Yes,

46
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 7: she was really good.

47
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: If you want a bit of context for that last

48
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: time that Jess was in, we actually stitched her up

49
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: and we had our button push of Joel replaced Woody

50
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: in the studio, and she had no idea that that's

51
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: what had gone down.

52
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 3: So it was a switcheroo for a switcher.

53
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 7: Row.

54
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 1: Did you notice anything different about the show?

55
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 8: Right?

56
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 2: Now like in terms of visually or is it like.

57
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 3: No, in terms of personnel, in terms of personnel.

58
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 8: Personnel what Jess, I know No.

59
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 4: I thought we were tie.

60
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 1: So Jess has got your back there wounds. But I

61
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: mean Natalie, Natalie, the girl who played chess just then

62
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: sounded a lot like Jess as well.

63
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 7: The answers were bang on, you know that was that

64
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 7: was the sort of answer.

65
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 8: My answer like, I'm all about authenticity, I'm all about

66
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 8: just just being real in the moment and her talking

67
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 8: about obviously coaching and doing the voice like it's honestly

68
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 8: been ridiculously like a blast.

69
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 3: Has it been a fair because because obviously Jesse, things

70
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 3: kicked off for you and as the idol, you've got

71
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 3: a newfound respect for the people that you worked with

72
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 3: when you were when you were on as the idol,

73
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 3: like who were helping you with your songs when you

74
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 3: were you know, being an amateur and now all of

75
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 3: a sudden you're in that coaching Really.

00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, you become you become definitely you know they're and

77
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: I hate to say this, but you are like because

78
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 2: you're nurturing them and supporting them. You are on the sideline.

79
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 5: You're like a cheerleader. You want to give them the

80
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 5: most advice as they can so they can be completely

81
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,760

00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 5: best performance that they've ever given. You know, and vulnerability

83
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 5: was you know, you know sometimes that can be masked

84
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 5: just because people are scared of showing how deep they

85
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 5: want to go. So you know, that's the whole point
