Speaker 2: And Alan Borough. Hello Adam Hills, Morning, Adam.

4
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: What can you tell us about the new season?

5
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 3: Well, we've hit the refresh button a little bit because

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 3: it feels a whole new generation of people have discovered

7
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 3: Sticks and Specks because they've grown up watching it after

8
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:23,960
Speaker 3: in the Night Garden on ABC Kids.

9
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 2: Yes.

10
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 3: So, well, now you know, I'm getting nineteen year olds

11
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 3: coming up to me on the street going dude, when

12
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 3: are you bringing the show back?

13
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,840
Speaker 4: And I'm like, how do you?

14
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:38,919
Speaker 2: I love it.

15
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,840
Speaker 1: That's a great thing. I think you're doing a community service.

16
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 1: In fact, do you think that music and online you know,

17
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 1: platforms and shows like yours, which embrace retro music, are

18
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: helping to bring the generations together?

19
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 3: Oh?

20
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 4: Absolutely.

21
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 3: I mean, look the really interesting thing about the way

22
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 3: a lot of kids listen to music right now. I've

23
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 3: got a fourteen year old daughter and she listen on

24
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 3: Spotify and she'll go from like Frank Ocean and Kendrick Lamar.

25
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 4: So the other day she was singing.

26
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 3: Along to Vienna by Billy Joel and I was like,

27
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 3: how do you even know this, yeah wow. So you know,

28
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 3: through streaming music and through TikTok, you know, so many

29
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 3: songs become popular on TikTok or TV shows like Running

30
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,839
Speaker 3: Up the Hill Kate Bush. So it's kind of fascinating

31
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 3: that the younger generation are so aware of all of

32
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 3: the older songs. It actually makes picks and specs a

33
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 3: bit easier to put together.

34
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. One of finding bizarre is the number of twenty

35
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 2: two year old baristas are listening to sixties music and

36
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: they know who Marvin Guy and the Beatles are and

37
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 2: they're choosing the playlist, which is very cool.

38
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 3: Absolutely in fact, so we've got a segment on the

39
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 3: last leak called secret Song where throughout the show I

40
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 3: drop hints as to what the secret song is, and

41
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 3: at the end of the show the teams have to

42
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 3: try and name it. And half the time we use

43
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 3: them by looking at what's big on TikTok, because nine

44
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 3: times out of ten it's a song from the seventies

45
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 3: and eighties that fourteen year olds are listening to as well,

46
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 3: and we know, well, if it's big on TikTok, everyone's

47
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 3: going to know it. Well.

48
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: You do want to slap them though, when they come

49
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: and say, oh, have you heard this great song? And yes,

50
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: I'm hearing it for the third time. Round, Actually start,

51
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 1: don't tell me, please.

52
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 3: Include Rah Rah Resputine, Russia's favorite love machine.

53
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 4: And I have no idea where she first heard that.

54
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,119
Speaker 1: I won't hear a bad word against body. That's that's

55
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: quality there. Now the show is returning to its original

56
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: thirty minute format. Is that also because these these kids

57
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,519
Speaker 1: don't have an attention span? What's going on with that?

58
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,080
Speaker 2: Got all your faces covered?

59
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: Yeah?

60
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 3: Within about the first forty five seconds, we'll scroll to

61
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 3: a different shows Rolling Bath.

62
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 4: The show was originally billed to be half an hour. Yeah.

63
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 3: I think getting back to half an hour it's so

64
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 3: much more fun. It's exactly what it was created for.

65
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,639
Speaker 3: We've already filmed six episodes and they've absolutely flown by,

66
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 3: so it's yeah, it kind of feels like it's returning

67
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:09,839
Speaker 3: to its original home.

68
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: I think that's good. There's been a lot of you know,

69
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 1: will streamers and everything. A lot of shows have to

70
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: be in hour long. I love a thirty minute show,

71
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: you know, division exactly exactly.

72
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 4: I am no ad break.

73
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, otherwise it's twelve minutes.

74
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 2: It amas we know Mith and Ellen are very much

75
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 2: love but also very respected for them music knowledge. But

76
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,399
Speaker 2: with myth involved, do you have to avoid questions about

77
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 2: Eurovision because she'll just clean up?

78
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 3: Well, we have to avoid Eurovision questions because she'll either

79
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 3: clean up or she'll look ridiculous when she can't remember.

80
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:46,839
Speaker 4: Something happened two months ago.

81
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: That could be a problem. She's ringing, Joel friends, You're you're.

82
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 3: A lovely there's a lovely look in her eyes when

83
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 3: I mentioned Eurovision.

84
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: I understand You're off to the Edinburgh Film Festival, Film Festival,

85
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,839
Speaker 1: Edinburgh Fringe Festival next month. Is it still the absolute

86
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: happening of happening places of reconstance, Baby Reindeer? People are

87
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: talking about Edinburgh again, but is it still the place

88
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: to go for an arts festival?

89
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 4: Oh? It absolutely is.

90
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 3: And I'm at a really lucky point where I've performed

91
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 3: there so many times that I'll just go up and

92
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 3: do ten nights of a stand up show and I'll

93
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 3: have a great old time. I mean, hopefully I won't

94
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 3: completely replicate what happens in Baby Raindeer, but maybe.

95
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: It's not something to aim for that episode. No melt down.

96
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 3: No, I've been doing a bit to stand up comedy

97
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 3: again back in London in February March, and yeah, I.

98
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 4: Thought I'd dip the toe back into the Edinburgh Fringe

99
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 4: Festival again.

100
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, with so much time spent in the UK, do

101
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 2: you find yourself? Do they claim you as their own? Now?

102
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 3: Funny you should say that there was one year. So

103
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 3: I started going to Edinburgh about nine teen ninety seven

104
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 3: and I did it. I did the festival eight years

105
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 3: in a row. And there was one year the list

106
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 3: magazine Edinburgh Scottish Magazine revealed their ten favorite Scottish people

107
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,359
Speaker 3: of the year and I came in at about number four.

108
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 2: It's hilarious. That is high praise.

109
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 3: That's amazing.

110
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 4: Hey, So, I mean I wasn't quite as high as

111
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 4: Sean Connery, but I wasn't far off.

112
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: So after all the years and the seasons, who would

113
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 1: be a dream music guest that you haven't had on

114
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: that you'd love to have on?

115
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 3: Oh?

116
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 4: Wow, it's such a good question. I mean I kind

117
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 4: of feel like we've had all of the dreams. Yeah,

118
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 4: even this.

119
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,880
