Thank you very much for 0:00:26.725 --> 0:00:29.805 checking out today's show. Now, the one thing I'm excited 0:00:29.845 --> 0:00:31.565 to talk about today something I've been working on for 0:00:31.565 --> 0:00:34.004 a couple of years. I've written a new book and 0:00:34.245 --> 0:00:36.645 it's out for pre order today, comes out in July, 0:00:37.245 --> 0:00:40.364 and it's called Unscript, The Radical Act of being Yourself, 0:00:40.445 --> 0:00:43.165 and it's about something very very dear to my heart, 0:00:43.205 --> 0:00:46.525 which is about how we connect to each other and 0:00:46.565 --> 0:00:50.404 what gets in the way to deeper, real connection. And 0:00:50.445 --> 0:00:52.404 one thing I've noticed, and I know that you all 0:00:52.405 --> 0:00:54.325 would have noticed this as well in your own lives 0:00:54.325 --> 0:00:56.525 as well. Over the last couple of years, we are 0:00:56.525 --> 0:00:59.325 becoming more and more disconnected. As we spend more and 0:00:59.325 --> 0:01:03.005 more time online. We're losing like this muscle that we 0:01:03.085 --> 0:01:05.525 have to connect with each other. And the more time 0:01:05.565 --> 0:01:08.165 we are online, we think we're being social. And if 0:01:08.165 --> 0:01:10.085 you would, you think, but a social media isn't actually 0:01:10.085 --> 0:01:14.005 that social. It's more about the algorithm wants us to 0:01:14.045 --> 0:01:18.245 stay in the algorithm, and it feeds us division and anger. 0:01:18.365 --> 0:01:21.405 It's not about true connection. That is not where true 0:01:21.405 --> 0:01:24.525 connection lives in front of each other. We're losing this. 0:01:24.605 --> 0:01:27.325 And the one thing about why I think radio is 0:01:27.365 --> 0:01:30.485 a magical, magical media more than TV or anything else, 0:01:30.605 --> 0:01:33.925 is that radio is about right now and the radio 0:01:34.125 --> 0:01:37.045 we do and the radio you hopefully like listening to. 0:01:37.565 --> 0:01:40.164 And we've heard this through so many stories from you guys, 0:01:40.565 --> 0:01:43.165 day in, day out. Is it's a chance to actually 0:01:43.245 --> 0:01:45.445 drop the performance that most of us do in all 0:01:45.485 --> 0:01:47.725 of our lives. There was a point before I decided 0:01:47.965 --> 0:01:50.405 to move to Australian really change our lives, where I 0:01:50.445 --> 0:01:52.885 was driving home from a radio show I've done four 0:01:52.925 --> 0:01:55.245 hours I took for four hours. I built that show 0:01:55.365 --> 0:01:57.565 that had two and a half million listeners. And you know, 0:01:57.605 --> 0:01:59.805 sometimes you catch yourself in the mirror. I was stuck 0:01:59.805 --> 0:02:01.845 in traffic, which was every day in my life in London, 0:02:02.165 --> 0:02:04.565 and I looked to myself in the rear view mirror 0:02:04.605 --> 0:02:07.045 and I looked away because I certainly realized, you actually 0:02:07.085 --> 0:02:09.365 haven't said anything for the last four hours that you 0:02:09.405 --> 0:02:12.845 actually meant. I'd realized I was performing a version of 0:02:12.885 --> 0:02:15.045 myself and I think this happens to a lot of us. 0:02:15.085 --> 0:02:17.645 We're performing a version of us house and it wasn't 0:02:17.725 --> 0:02:19.445 just a work. I realized it was starting to creep 0:02:19.605 --> 0:02:21.845 into my home life as well, so I made it. 0:02:21.885 --> 0:02:24.925 I'm also as how exhausting it is to keep up 0:02:24.965 --> 0:02:27.885 this performance of a version of yourself. And again, social 0:02:27.925 --> 0:02:29.965 media is great, there's so many great things about social media, 0:02:30.005 --> 0:02:32.685 but what it also shows us is a fake version 0:02:32.845 --> 0:02:35.405 of people. And think it makes us thing that we 0:02:35.445 --> 0:02:38.485 need to be, some perfect version to have connection with 0:02:38.525 --> 0:02:40.325 other people. And the one thing I can tell you 0:02:40.725 --> 0:02:43.605 is that people are starved of real connection. You don't 0:02:43.685 --> 0:02:46.325 connect to someone trying to be perfect. You connect to 0:02:46.365 --> 0:02:48.405 someone when they drop the act, when they unscript. As 0:02:48.405 --> 0:02:51.005 what I've called the book unscript, the radical act of 0:02:51.045 --> 0:02:51.764 being yourself. 0:02:52.085 --> 0:02:54.484 Being yourself is going to become harder and harder for 0:02:54.525 --> 0:02:57.125 the next couple years because we're opting out so much 0:02:57.125 --> 0:02:58.725 of our voice and what to say and what to think, 0:02:58.725 --> 0:03:03.325 increasingly to AI it's a lot of fake people online 0:03:03.365 --> 0:03:06.205 influences fake and also AI slop as well. And so 0:03:06.685 --> 0:03:08.165 the book is called unscript. 0:03:08.685 --> 0:03:10.645 Written it with one aim in mind that actually it 0:03:10.725 --> 0:03:14.885 helps you get excited about having better conversations because our 0:03:14.925 --> 0:03:18.325 lives are a series of conversations, and how we talk 0:03:18.405 --> 0:03:21.005 to each other is actually the quality of our lives 0:03:21.045 --> 0:03:22.885 as how we connect with each other. And I do 0:03:22.925 --> 0:03:25.484 think we're drifting apart from each other. And the joy 0:03:25.525 --> 0:03:28.445 of doing radio is that it's real time connection and 0:03:28.485 --> 0:03:31.325 its authentic connection. So the book is really that I 0:03:31.325 --> 0:03:34.365 hope that you enjoy how to have better conversations and 0:03:34.525 --> 0:03:36.765 true deeper connection wherever you are on your life. So 0:03:36.805 --> 0:03:39.125 that actually, I think for a lot of people, everyone 0:03:39.165 --> 0:03:41.605 knows how to speak, but there are certain situations where 0:03:41.765 --> 0:03:45.085 speaking becomes tricky and normally an old story you have 0:03:45.525 --> 0:03:48.805 about something somebody said to you once, or something where 0:03:48.805 --> 0:03:50.845 you felt shame and you don't want to feel that again. 0:03:51.085 --> 0:03:53.365 I was coaching someone last year who just wanted to 0:03:53.685 --> 0:03:56.125 have the courage to ask a question on a team's 0:03:56.165 --> 0:03:58.685 meeting that was public speaking. To her, it's hard these days, 0:03:58.685 --> 0:04:00.085 isn't it. Put your hand up and ask a question. 0:04:00.285 --> 0:04:03.125 You're frightened of looking forwarlish But it keeps us locked away, 0:04:03.165 --> 0:04:06.005 it keeps us imprisoned. We think it keeps us safe, 0:04:06.005 --> 0:04:08.285 which is why we develop all these different scripts and 0:04:08.645 --> 0:04:10.765 a mask. But at some moment, that mask in that 0:04:10.805 --> 0:04:12.565 script that cape us to keep you safe like it 0:04:12.605 --> 0:04:16.205 did for me for years, will actually imprison you. And 0:04:16.245 --> 0:04:19.045 so I made a decision to stop performing a version 0:04:19.085 --> 0:04:21.445 of myself mccaugh become more and more myself and the 0:04:21.525 --> 0:04:24.404 radio that's been the last eight or nine years, especially 0:04:24.445 --> 0:04:27.284 since I moved here. The great news about that is 0:04:27.765 --> 0:04:30.124 it involves a hell of a lot of effort, and 0:04:30.284 --> 0:04:34.125 actually you realize that true connection, the best conversations you've 0:04:34.125 --> 0:04:36.164 ever had with your family and friends and your partners, 0:04:36.604 --> 0:04:38.805 you will have left that conversation where it felt. 0:04:38.885 --> 0:04:42.284 There were no calories spent. It's effortless, you said, I think, 0:04:42.284 --> 0:04:44.244 oh my god, have we really been talking for four hours? 0:04:44.645 --> 0:04:47.404 There was no striving, there's no performance. And so that's 0:04:47.484 --> 0:04:50.325 what that's what I've seen that in Patsy. I've seen 0:04:50.325 --> 0:04:52.324 that in Rio. Since I've been working with you guys 0:04:52.364 --> 0:04:54.845 and helping you guys, is where you were Patsy eight 0:04:54.885 --> 0:04:57.044 years ago and where you are now. It's been an 0:04:57.125 --> 0:04:59.884 incredible thing to witness as well as if you've become 0:04:59.924 --> 0:05:02.244 closer to yourself, and I ready producer Katelan as well, 0:05:02.525 --> 0:05:04.724 where she was now and the bouncing ball of energy. 0:05:04.804 --> 0:05:06.565 She is running this team and running the show as 0:05:06.565 --> 0:05:09.205 well along with you. Are you both as well as 0:05:09.205 --> 0:05:13.525 your journey of becoming more yourself and shedding those masks. 0:05:13.804 --> 0:05:17.245 Absolutely, And I think that when you talk about when 0:05:17.284 --> 0:05:19.525 you're talking about you in the car, I think about 0:05:20.005 --> 0:05:21.045 a song that he'd home with me. 0:05:21.364 --> 0:05:23.564 Is Ben Folds one the best imitation of yourself? 0:05:23.645 --> 0:05:24.125 Yes? Is that? 0:05:24.245 --> 0:05:26.844 And I remember hearing that and thinking about maybe three 0:05:26.924 --> 0:05:29.645 or four years ago, that is exactly the way I feel. 0:05:29.924 --> 0:05:31.844 And then yeah, like the last three or four years, 0:05:31.885 --> 0:05:34.565 just feeling like you don't have to put on an 0:05:34.604 --> 0:05:37.085 act or listen to those voices inside your head and 0:05:37.765 --> 0:05:39.325 just be yourself and that that's enough. 0:05:39.325 --> 0:05:39.565 Mate. 0:05:39.724 --> 0:05:41.764 I can't wait to read this book. I'm so proud 0:05:41.804 --> 0:05:41.885 of you. 0:05:41.964 --> 0:05:42.804 Will don't thank you. 0:05:42.844 --> 0:05:44.924 The book comes out in July. You might think, bloody 0:05:44.924 --> 0:05:46.564 el Christ and is April? Why are you talking about 0:05:46.565 --> 0:05:48.325 it now? It's out for pre order. If you're go 0:05:48.364 --> 0:05:51.645 on book Topia and Amazon, you'll find it there. The 0:05:51.685 --> 0:05:53.724 reason is is that I'm talking about you now, is like, 0:05:53.765 --> 0:05:55.484 if you are going to get it, please do me 0:05:55.565 --> 0:05:58.444 favor buy it on pre order. The reason is is 0:05:58.445 --> 0:06:01.244 that all the bookshops look at pre orders to decide 0:06:01.284 --> 0:06:03.964 whether or not they're going to stock copies of your book. 0:06:04.284 --> 0:06:06.485 And so right now someone were thinking, who the hell 0:06:06.565 --> 0:06:08.484 is this guy? And in this guy on the radio, 0:06:08.685 --> 0:06:10.245 I can't see them being a big demand for his 0:06:10.284 --> 0:06:13.245 life story about how to connect deep with people. They 0:06:13.325 --> 0:06:15.404 look at the pre orders. If there are good pre orders, 0:06:15.604 --> 0:06:17.445 the book's going to be more easy if you'd buy 0:06:17.484 --> 0:06:19.484 when it comes out. And I promise you I've put 0:06:19.565 --> 0:06:22.245 everything I know about connection that the book is full 0:06:22.245 --> 0:06:25.765 of stories of me basically screwing it up so that 0:06:25.804 --> 0:06:29.044 you don't have to. It's thirty years of stumbling at 0:06:29.085 --> 0:06:31.564 home and on air, many stories that you don't have 0:06:31.604 --> 0:06:34.525 to make, the horrible, messy mistakes that I've made as well. 0:06:34.724 --> 0:06:38.044 And on the messiness, there isn't a single perfect radio 0:06:38.125 --> 0:06:40.444 show I've ever done, and I don't ever want to 0:06:40.445 --> 0:06:42.644 try and do one. This show is all over the place, 0:06:43.325 --> 0:06:45.364 and I'm sure you agree it is the better for it, 0:06:45.445 --> 0:06:49.205 because actually the messiness is where the magic is. 0:06:49.284 --> 0:06:50.964 All the stories we get from listeners. 0:06:50.964 --> 0:06:52.685 The last hour of these stories about what you used 0:06:52.685 --> 0:06:54.685 to think posh was when you were a kid, it's 0:06:54.724 --> 0:06:57.325 that messiness that's what being a human is. And then 0:06:57.364 --> 0:06:59.724 the next couple of years, what's being a human? What's 0:06:59.804 --> 0:07:02.164 real and what isn't human? With AI, it's going to 0:07:02.205 --> 0:07:05.004 get harder and harder. So the real invitation is to 0:07:05.044 --> 0:07:07.205 double down on what being a human is. Being a 0:07:07.245 --> 0:07:10.645 human isn't about being per It's about being messy. It's 0:07:10.725 --> 0:07:13.725 that inner wido that we all have, and you will 0:07:13.765 --> 0:07:17.165 have a lot better life when you embrace your inner wido. 0:07:17.804 --> 0:07:19.085 That's what I should have called the book, but it's 0:07:19.085 --> 0:07:19.925 called in unscript. 0:07:20.125 --> 0:07:21.564 Now, if you go and pre order the book book 0:07:21.605 --> 0:07:25.165 Topia or Amazon, it really helps me out and as 0:07:25.205 --> 0:07:27.685 a favor and a thank you, the one thing I'm 0:07:27.685 --> 0:07:28.845 going to be doing is I'm going to be doing 0:07:28.885 --> 0:07:30.325 a whole load of these.

I really want to go and see it 0:11:32.125 --> 0:11:33.724 as well. And you know what, I actually think it 0:11:33.725 --> 0:11:35.925 would have been one of the biggest Netflix shows ever 0:11:36.324 --> 0:11:39.005 if they broke his life story up into seasons. 0:11:39.365 --> 0:11:41.045 Oh, actually, such a good point. 0:11:41.045 --> 0:11:42.565 I would have run for like now they did with 0:11:42.605 --> 0:11:45.405 The Crown, which was brilliantly done.
