1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Here at two Good Sports.

2
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 2: We would like to acknowledge the traditional owners of the

3
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 2: land on which we record this podcast. The wereunerie people.

4
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 2: This land was never seated, always was always will be

5
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 2: Ohio and welcome to two Good Sports Sports.

6
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: And he's told differently, I'm Georgie.

7
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 3: Tunney, Georgie alluding to a very secret mission she had

8
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 3: in Japan during the week. Now, because as you do, George,

9
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 3: it is a pleasure to be here. What a week

10
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 3: again in sport, it just feels like he keeps getting

11
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 3: bigger and bigger and.

12
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: I can't keep up, I know.

13
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 2: And on that I want to begin with some rather

14
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,879
Speaker 2: big news. That's my good sport of the week, and

15
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 2: tell me I'm giving it to your hometown. The WA

16
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 2: Premier has confirmed that Earth is getting a rugby league

17
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 2: team from twenty twenty seven, allegedly the Bears.

18
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 3: They're back, they literally said in the announcement twenty seven

19
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 3: or twenty eight. But it's happening. It's happening, and so

20
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 3: the North Sydney Bears for those that haven't fallen nurl me,

21
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 3: we're around like twenty five years ago that were part

22
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 3: of the league and then they've essentially been relegated to

23
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 3: use a very football term, and there is a dormant

24
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,199
Speaker 3: body of fans yes, that are waiting to be back

25
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 3: in love with this team and support them. So in

26
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 3: one part it's really clever because you have a pre

27
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 3: existing fan base. In the other part, have you looked

28
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 3: at flights from Sydney to Perth recently? I'm sorry Bears fans,

29
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 3: but if you're planning to see them at the new stadium,

30
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 3: good luck to here.

31
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: Well, this is what I want your opinion on, because

32
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 2: you're very, very well placed. Do you think that rugby

33
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 2: league will work in Perth? There's two sides to this,

34
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 2: what's your signe ah? Two sides to my side to

35
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 2: this is that I grew up in Perth.

36
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 3: Obviously as an avid sport lover watcher, very integrated in sport.

37
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 3: I thought it was really weird when I watched breakfast

38
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 3: television they spoke about these mythical dragons or some bunnies

39
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 3: like I just I genuinely didn't understand what I was

40
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 3: watching or why it was relevant, because if it's rugby,

41
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 3: it should be about the Wallabies. Yes, And that's as

42
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 3: someone who was very engaged in the sporting landscape. And

43
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 3: then I moved to like to Sydney for an internship

44
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 3: with Fox Sports and they asked me about rugby league

45
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 3: and I said, I love the Wallabies direct quote, so

46
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 3: you can understand why I wasn't allowed on it for

47
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 3: a very long time. So I think it's hard to

48
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 3: there's some knowledge gaps there is. It's hard to overstate

49
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 3: how little people care about rugby league as a general rule. Yes,

50
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 3: state of origin packs out, okay. But this is the

51
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 3: second part, is that we get fourteen I become West

52
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 3: Astralian very quickly. Fourteen to fifteen thousand at the Wildcats

53
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 3: every week. Yes, if you give West Australians a winner

54
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 3: and a loser, we will rock up in numbers because

55
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 3: sport is our thing. So I genuinely believe that it

56
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: will be embraced. Will people wear guernsies but have absolute

57
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 3: you no idea what they're talking about? Sure, but that's okay,

58
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 3: that's okay.

59
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 2: I think that if it can just be a spectacle

60
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 2: for those initial years until the Perthians what do you

61
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 2: call personalities?

62
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 3: What is sand I think we're sand gropers.

63
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 2: Until the sand gropers understand those who reside in the

64
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 2: big state the incredible game that is rugby League, and

65
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 2: luckily is Harry Grant, our guest said last.

66
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: Week very easim very easy to follow.

67
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: So I think it's also an excellent time for them

68
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: to be launching a team because the AFL teams aren't

69
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 2: doing very well, not just success wise wise, not supporter

70
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 2: base wise. I know that you know the Doctors, the Eagles, you,

71
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 2: I get it, I get it. Please please sand Gropers

72
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: don't come for me. I understand that you love those teams,

73
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: but because you're not going to really be winning a

74
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: flag realistically for what ten years, either of those teams,

75
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 2: let's infiltrate good work.

76
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 3: Good work, Peter Landing, good work, the story. A lot

77
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 3: of people had Fremantle in their top four this year.

78
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 3: They're just not executing where they should be and West

79
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 3: Coast are rebuilding, but West Coaster never really down for

80
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 3: that long. They're a very successful club for a long time.

81
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 3: I'm interested to see the real estate that NRL could

82
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 3: possibly get in me too, like I just want to

83
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 3: see the sort of coverage that they could potentially get. Yah,

84
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 3: but it puts the N in NRL. I'm hearing those

85
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 3: you can't you can't claim to be a national competition

86
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 3: without half the country.

87
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 2: And I'm hearing number one ticket holder abs gelmy, come on,

88
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 2: come on, the jersey's nice if they stick to the

89
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: old jersey, it's nice jersey.

90
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, because I saw a lot of them. I was

91
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 3: actually in Magic Ground over the weekend and there are

92
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 3: a lot of people wearing the jerseys.

93
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

94
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 3: It's like you know, for Red and Black.

95
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 2: They're always like rugby league fans were chaotic, because no

96
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 2: matter what sporting game match code across the world, there

97
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 2: will always be at least one rabbit Oz jersey there.

98
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 4: Why true.

99
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 2: It could be at Wimbledon and there's a rabbit Os

100
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 2: fan in the top corner and it's like, sorry, what

101
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 2: why how.

102
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 3: Did you get did you? How did you get here?

103
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 2: You've taken and you've made that choice to take up

104
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 2: valuable luggage shy.

105
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 3: I blame Russell Crowe because truly, why else would they

106
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 3: have a global presence?

107
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 4: Right?

108
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: Okay, that's my good sport, good sport of the week.

109
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 3: That it's a massive It's a massive story, isn't it.

110
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 3: I've got a very quick bad sport. And then I'm

111
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 3: just going to say it and move on. I've got

112
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,559
Speaker 3: a good sport. Okay, stop giving the finger.

113
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: I'm with you.

114
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 3: It's so juvenile, it's so stupid, it's unnecessary, and young

115
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 3: kids watch you. And I was listening during the week

116
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 3: and they had a woman call up a radio station.

117
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 3: She said, I watched my son out the back wholesomely

118
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 3: kicking goals. We've set up some fake goals out the back.

119
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,359
Speaker 3: He celebrated them. Then he turned around to our water

120
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 3: cooler and gave it the double bird. No, and I've

121
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 3: just thought, first, like, we've got kids trying to pretend

122
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 3: to be Bailey Smith giving inadimate objects the finger. And

123
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 3: I'm sorry if you think, well, we're allowed to express ourselves.

124
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 3: This is what happens. And so then as parents and

125
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 3: as you go, how am I meant to explain to

126
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 3: this kid that this isn't cool when they do it

127
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 3: again and again, And no one's saying that crowds are

128
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 3: well behaved and that the vitriol that keeps getting worse

129
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 3: and worse that's coming at these players is okay. But

130
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 3: I do think it is easier for the AFL or

131
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 3: the league to police the players in their response. And

132
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 3: that's All you have is control to how you respond

133
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 3: to this thing, because the crowd are only going to

134
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 3: get more raucous yes to get this response if they

135
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 3: think they're going to get it. George, Yes, hate it,

136
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 3: aren't it.

137
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 2: This is such a great call for you from This

138
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 2: is such a great call from you. I am one

139
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 2: thousand percent with you because you know what you might

140
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 2: be okay with seeing Bailey Smith do it on the

141
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 2: field and you think, oh that's great and try It's not.

142
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 3: The only one. Harley Reid made it his propile picture.

143
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 2: Yes, and I'm a fair footy fan. We understand that.

144
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 2: So don't get and clear, don't get me wrong. I

145
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 2: love you know some personality. We always ask for it,

146
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 2: but there's a very big difference and it's very confronting

147
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 2: when you put that picture up against a three year

148
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 2: old doing the same thing.

149
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, just no, no, no, no, I'm with you.

150
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 3: West Australians all stood up and gave the finger in

151
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 3: support of Harley Reid giving the thing like I just think.

152
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 2: But imagine when Harley Reid eventually comes back to a

153
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 2: Victorian club, it's going to happen.

154
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: Do come for me? Then the entire MC like whenever

155
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: he goes back.

156
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 3: To people given the finger like it's it's just it's.

157
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: It's yeah, I don't like it. I don't. I do

158
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: not like it. I do not like it. We're not

159
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: the fun police.

160
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 3: No, but hey, this is a sort of m if.

161
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 3: I well, I'm sorry. If I walked into work every

162
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 3: week and when I was a little bit annoyed gave

163
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 3: the double bird in a meeting on the way, I

164
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 3: just gave, there would be I would be given a

165
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 3: few warnings.

166
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, just so you know, dear listener, I just did

167
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 2: the double bird to jell me. Then I was like, yeah,

168
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 2: I'm like my hands, it doesn't feel right. No, apologize.

169
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 2: I look like Bill and Ney with the arthrod.

170
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: Like it was bad.

171
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 3: It was so bad.

172
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: Anyway, I'm not that human, So stop it.

173
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I'll call hr and we'll have discussion, a discussion.

174
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 3: I can't even speak about that afterwards because that was

175
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 3: very confun you came at me. No, but I again,

176
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 3: that was a bad sport. Let's not focus on the

177
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 3: next the good sport. Oh yeah, is there a better

178
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 3: sport in Australian sport than Neil Danaher? Oh what a

179
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 3: human Australian of the Year and what he has done

180
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 3: through his M and D diagnosis to then have fight

181
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 3: M and D and the Big Freeze and just his

182
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 3: courage in putting his story out there and his family

183
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 3: are just the most phenomenal people. But I mentioned this

184
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 3: because the Big Freeze eleven beanies are out. I'm using

185
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 3: a prop which is useless, useless when it comes to

186
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 3: a podcast, but they are out that you can buy them.

187
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,719
Speaker 3: I think it's Coals and where else, Bunnings and different.

188
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 2: They pop up, honestly everywhere and I love this time

189
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 2: of year, especially in Melbourne, but hopefully around the country.

190
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 3: They're everywhere.

191
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 2: You just see everyone walking around in them and it

192
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 2: just does spread the awareness so much. And the danaher family, yes, Neil,

193
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 2: but the entire family has just done incredible things.

194
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 3: For this course. Since twenty fourteen, one hundred and fifteen

195
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 3: million dollars for M and D research, including fifteen clinical

196
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 3: trials and thirty four drug development projects.

197
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 2: Australian of the Year for a reason. What a human

198
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 2: with that segue potentially a future Australian of the Year.

199
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: I'm calling it.

200
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm calling at the very least the second best

201
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 3: sport in the country. If we're gonna if we're gonna

202
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 3: have to have kneel Danaher on top. He arguably is

203
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 3: one of the most liked athletes, I would say in

204
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 3: the country.

205
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 2: I agree, I agree, And we have this person coming

206
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 2: up for you, dear listeners, in a matter of moment.

207
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 3: You are welcome.

208
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: You are welcome.

209
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 2: But before we get there, we just wanted to remind

210
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 2: you the last time you may have heard from him,

211
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 2: it was from this devastating post fire interview from the

212
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:42,479
Speaker 2: paras Olympics.

213
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: I've been though all the same, teach. I'm believe you

214
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: must make you so proud.

215
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 5: It's crazy, made two decades dedicated to one drave and

216
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 5: it's over, just like that.

217
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:54,559
Speaker 3: May you're feeling after this morning.

218
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 4: I feel pretty.

219
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 5: Numb right now, but I'm sure your next month or

220
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 5: two will be quite challenging, quite hard.

221
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 4: I feel I feel from my mind gets the better

222
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 4: of him. I feel like I've let myself down.

223
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 3: And I know if you've.

224
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 5: Ever with down made, Gods, what do you do not

225
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 5: at all, Harry, have let yourself down made.

226
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 3: There are thousands of spectators here, and so many of

227
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 3: them Australian.

228
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 1: What does it mean to have them in the crowd.

229
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 4: It's massive.

230
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 5: Australia is such a sporting nation and I'm so sorry.

231
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 3: Honestly, it's so hard to listen to. It's really hard

232
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 3: to watch. And it was the moment, I think where

233
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 3: all of Australia went, Can we just give this bloke

234
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 3: a hug? He had such high expectations for himself heading

235
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 3: into the Games, and understandably so. He was already an

236
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 3: Olympic medalist and he had just had his eyes on gold,

237
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,839
Speaker 3: and then to be out of the Games in your

238
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 3: very first fight, and as he said, when you've been

239
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 3: two decades of work and this is the pinnacle. The

240
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 3: devastation was there. But what we love is that raw honesty, vulnerability,

241
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,079
Speaker 3: and with Harry Garside, that's what you get.

242
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:09,599
Speaker 1: He's coming up after.

243
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 6: This, let's get ready to remold.

244
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: And the crowd goes wild because coming up right now

245
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 2: we have someone who fights stereotypes, intrusive thoughts and sitting still.

246
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 2: He's been on I'm a celeb, Get me out of here.

247
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 2: He's coming up on Dancing with the Stars, he's an

248
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 2: Olympic medalist. He's got a fight coming up. May you

249
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 2: please welcome one of the greatest humans. It's Harry Garca.

250
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,959
Speaker 4: Yay, Harry, are you guys? What an intro the greatest humans.

251
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 4: I'll take that.

252
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 3: Proud ourselves on making people feel welcome.

253
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,839
Speaker 1: We really do, we really do it. So wonderful to

254
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: see your face, Harry.

255
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 3: The last time Georgie ran in to you, you weren't

256
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 3: aware of, but I received a phone call from Georgie going,

257
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 3: oh my god, I'm in Bronty and Harry Garsid just

258
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 3: ran past. He lapped me eight times.

259
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,840
Speaker 4: Oh my god.

260
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 3: George can tell the story.

261
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 1: This is a true story, Harry.

262
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 2: I was walking with my partner Robert along Bronti and

263
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 2: we were coming up to our own training regime for

264
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 2: a reality show called The Amazing Race, and I was

265
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 2: just about to start jogging when I only just felt

266
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 2: some wind past me.

267
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: Like just I was like, whoa, what was that?

268
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 2: It was like the whole world had shifted, and I

269
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 2: wasn't quite sure why.

270
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: And it was because you had.

271
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 2: Sprinted past me at such pace that it was like

272
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 2: I'd been swiveled around like a Warner Brothers Bugs bunny cat. Honestly,

273
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 2: you were going so fast and I was like, oh, well,

274
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,839
Speaker 2: he can't go that fast up the hill. And then

275
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,839
Speaker 2: we just stood there and watched as you did go

276
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 2: I think, even faster up that huge hill between Bronti

277
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 2: and Bloody Clavelli, and then went.

278
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: By the time time we got to the hill, you

279
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: were coming back again, and.

280
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 3: I was like, he back again.

281
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 4: That's the thing about I absolutely love running because I'm

282
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 4: always trying to run away from my head noise. But

283
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 4: unfortunately you can't get away from us.

284
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 3: You really can't. But clearly working for your fitness, Harry,

285
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 3: tell us a little bit, how is your training going,

286
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 3: because we're less than a week out from fight night, right,

287
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 3: so what's tapering look like? What does this week look

288
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 3: like for you?

289
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 4: So my last hard session is tonight, we got we've

290
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 4: got six rounds asparring. It would be like probably the

291
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 4: intensity level will be about eighty percent, so still like

292
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 4: relatively starting to pull back. But after tonight it's just full,

293
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 4: full seam ahead about making weight. So you pull back

294
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 4: on the training and you'll you really focus on just

295
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 4: getting your weight right, which is so exciting I absolutely

296
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 4: can't wait for it.

297
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 3: Is that Sauna's running with tracksuits, like we know what

298
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,319
Speaker 3: jockeys do to cut weight is insane. But with the boxing,

299
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 3: how important is it to keep your strength up while

300
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 3: also cutting weight and how do you find that balance.

301
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 4: I think jockey's probably cut harder than what we do,

302
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 4: just purely because they, like we are genuinely competing with

303
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,439
Speaker 4: someone else. They're obviously competing with a horse, I guess,

304
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 4: but yeah, competing with who who was trying to really

305
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 4: hurt us. So we can't cut too much, although a

306
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 4: lot of boxers do do probably a bit too much,

307
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 4: and I think that does sort of show on fight night.

308
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 4: But I'm sitting in a really, really good range, so

309
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 4: I'm really excited to sort of get in there next week.

310
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 4: And it's been so long out of the ring. July

311
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 4: last year was my last fight professionally, was three years ago.

312
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 4: So I'm a lot of pressure, a lot of inside noise,

313
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 4: but also very excited to sort of push through that

314
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 4: as there is a lot of nervous energy. I think

315
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 4: at the moment for myself.

316
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: How is that head noise?

317
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 2: Harry, One of the reasons that Australia and we love

318
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 2: you so much is because you are always so open,

319
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 2: You're honest, you're raw.

320
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: About everything that is happening.

321
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 2: With you, like, what is the anxiety, like if there

322
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 2: is any going back into the ring because it has

323
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 2: been so long.

324
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think for myself it's the head noise is

325
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 4: quite quite strong. In the moment. I think I just

326
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 4: feel like as an athlete, I lost my respect for myself,

327
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 4: and the reason why I'm getting back in there is

328
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 4: purely to try and gain that respect back. I think

329
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 4: the only way out is through. You know, you're not

330
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 4: gonna for me. I'm not gonna gain the respect just

331
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 4: sitting on the couch or you know, doing something else.

332
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 4: I think I really genuinely need to get back in

333
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 4: the ring, just for myself, just so I can get

334
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 4: to the position that I felt. I guess prior to

335
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 4: the Tokyo Olympics, I felt like I was the best

336
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 4: athlete I possibly could be, and then you know, I

337
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 4: showed up really well at the Tokyo Olympics. So I

338
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 4: feel like I really want to get back to that position.

339
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 4: I have no real expectation for myself over the next

340
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 4: six to twelve months. It's just all about getting back

341
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 4: to the best athlete I possibly can be and then

342
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 4: looking to go overseas. But at the moment, I just

343
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 4: think because it's been so long out of the ring,

344
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 4: like there is so much nervous energy. But also I

345
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 4: love this. I live for this, I truly. I think

346
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 4: it's a place that I feel most alive and most

347
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 4: myself and I love that. You know, over the next

348
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 4: six days I'm going to be faced with so many

349
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 4: mental challenges and I think, as I said, the only

350
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 4: way out is through. You can just got to confront

351
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 4: some head on. And I absolutely love that.

352
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 3: That's beautiful, isn't it.

353
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. I need some of that resilience.

354
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 2: I need you printed like on a little card for

355
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 2: me to read every morning and just in.

356
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: My ear every morning.

357
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 3: I think my mentality is the only way out is

358
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 3: stage lesson. I ain't gone through. I'm doing everything I can,

359
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 3: which is probably why I'm not a boxer, to be fair.

360
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 3: But Harry, I'm so glad that you brought up Tokyo

361
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 3: because that's when I think, and it must have felt

362
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 3: like a wave for you. Australia were all stuck in

363
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 3: their houses watching the Olympics and here was this guy

364
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 3: wearing now a Polish being himself and everyone literally just

365
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 3: fell in love with this character. And you were so

366
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 3: real and so unfiltered with who you were. Has it

367
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 3: surprised you how much Australia has just embraced you for you,

368
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 3: because I'm sure there were times where you thought, oh,

369
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 3: I don't know if people are ready for the fact

370
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 3: that I am a bit different.

371
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think it's it's always surprising. I think

372
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 4: that's the beauty of social media now, right. I think

373
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 4: individuals have the freedom now and the power now to

374
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,879
Speaker 4: be themselves and realizing the world's a big place. And

375
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 4: I think before social media, all that we had was

376
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 4: our community. And I think you are, you know, not pigeonhole,

377
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 4: but you do have certain boundaries if your community doesn't

378
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 4: explore certain things and stuff like that. And I think

379
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 4: the beauty of social media is I think there's space

380
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 4: for everyone, you know. I think you can you can

381
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 4: showcase stuff to the world about yourself and you will

382
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 4: find like minded people out there, which is quite exciting

383
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,640
Speaker 4: and it's been really amazing. I think twenty twenty one,

384
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 4: I don't know if I fully understood how to sort

385
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 4: of deal with like like fame or anything like that.

386
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 4: And I think it took me a couple of years

387
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 4: to fully understand how to deal with it, and I

388
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 4: think I did get quite distracted little bit, and I

389
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,479
Speaker 4: think that's probably why maybe Paris didn't turn out how

390
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 4: I planned it would. But it's nice to sort of

391
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 4: realize that. I think I needed to experience that, as

392
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 4: you know, I was in my mid twenties, and I

393
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 4: think that's where you probably learned the most about yourself.

394
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 4: So I'm really happy. I just feel like I found

395
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 4: my community. I've found my people who accept me, and

396
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 4: it's been pretty pretty amazing, especially obviously Postparis, like not

397
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 4: getting the result that I wanted, but then feeling like

398
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 4: I got a massive hug from Australia, Like I felt

399
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 4: so body grateful to be Australia, which is such a

400
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 4: wild thing.

401
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 2: How would you describe yourself, Harry? I mean, you know,

402
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 2: we think that we know you because you are so open,

403
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 2: But how if you were doing your own intro right now?

404
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 2: You are the author of your own Wikipedia page, like

405
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 2: who is Harry Garside?

406
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 4: I'm a deeply curious person who thinks about way too much,

407
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 4: way too often. I'm passionate about many things. I find

408
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 4: joy in so many little things. I cared deeply about

409
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 4: the people in my circle, the people in my circle.

410
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 4: They were fulm far between. I feel like I have

411
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 4: a big heart. Yeah, I think that summarizes me. I

412
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 4: saw this video and it said, try and describe yourself

413
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 4: without using your hobbies, what you do. We have the

414
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 4: same describe rather than you know, me just going I'm

415
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 4: a boxer or I'm done that, I'm just someone who

416
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,520
Speaker 4: I don't know. I I think about a lot, and

417
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 4: I care deeply, and i've I don't believe in star signs.

418
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 4: Well maybe I do because I'm saying this, but I'm

419
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 4: a cancer, so we do.

420
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 3: Apparently I'm actually just went all.

421
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 6: But it is.

422
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 3: And it's such a healthy thing to be able to

423
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 3: touch who you are from what you do, particularly if

424
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 3: what you do is so outcomes based.

425
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely, I think it's really nice. So I guess

426
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 4: identify as a boxer and that's probably something that I

427
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 4: didn't realize at the age of nine when I started.

428
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 4: But I think I was searching for, like you think

429
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 4: about a boxer and the certain attributes that you think

430
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 4: about when you think about boxing. I wanted that. I

431
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 4: wanted that identity. I wanted to be able to see

432
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 4: me as a.

433
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 3: Boxer when you say those attributes are you're thinking like discipline?

434
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 5: Is that?

435
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 3: Is that the attributes you were leaning into.

436
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 4: Just courageous, you know, courageous, strong, fearless. I feel like

437
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 4: I before I started boxing, I just feel like I

438
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 4: compare myself naturally to my brothers, and they were really

439
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 4: strong individuals, or they looked strong, you know. I saw

440
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 4: them do courageous things. I saw them fight. I saw

441
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 4: them do these things that I was so scared to do.

442
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 4: And I think I think I initially started boxing because

443
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 4: what do you see men do or movies? You see

444
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 4: men fight, and you see men, you know, be fearless

445
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 4: and save the world. And I just didn't feel like

446
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 4: I had that inside of me. And the beautiful thing

447
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,479
Speaker 4: is boxing taught me that I do. You know, I

448
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 4: do have that strong, courageous person inside of me. And

449
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 4: it's really nice to sort of realize that. I guess

450
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 4: in my.

451
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,679
Speaker 2: Twenties question without notice, Harry, just because I think it

452
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 2: is so pertinent and a lot of our listeners will agree.

453
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 2: The conversation around the world, but in this country right

454
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 2: now around men and masculinity seems really really loud. For you,

455
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: what does it mean to be a positive role model?

456
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,959
Speaker 2: Because I would say you're one of the few in

457
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 2: all honesty for young boys growing up in particular, what

458
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 2: do you think it takes to be one? And what

459
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 2: do people need to do? And by people, I am

460
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 2: specifically talking about men.

461
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 4: I think masculinity comes in many forms, and I think

462
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 4: masculinity has range, and I think masculinity, if at times,

463
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 4: needs to be the one who is the stoic, strong

464
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 4: capable person. I've always not always, only in the last

465
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 4: few years have I thought of this concept. So I've

466
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 4: thought about masculinity. And when I say masculinity, I don't

467
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 4: mean men, just more men hold masculine traits, but I

468
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 4: know many women who hold extremely masculine traits, my mum

469
00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 4: being one of them. And I think the way I

470
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 4: look at masculinity is I think masculinity is the stabilizing

471
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,919
Speaker 4: trunk in a tree. You know, we don't so often

472
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 4: look at the trunk, and it's beautiful in its own way,

473
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 4: but it does a lot of the work. It's sort

474
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,360
Speaker 4: of the wind will never knock it over. It collects

475
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 4: a lot of the resources underneath the surface access service

476
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 4: to give the flower, which I call the feminine energy,

477
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 4: the flow, the beauty, the thing that we often look

478
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 4: at because it's moving in the wind, and I think

479
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 4: that's the way I look at masculinity. But I do

480
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 4: think that you know, sometimes the tree trunk, you know,

481
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 4: it cries, it bleeds, it goes through its own stages

482
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 4: where it loses its bark, and I think that is

483
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 4: part of it goes through winter, it goes through seasons,

484
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 4: and I think it's just understanding that I think being

485
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 4: a man, I think it comes in stages, it comes

486
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 4: in time, and I think it's always about being curious

487
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 4: about yourself and trying to be a bit more introspective

488
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 4: and asking yourself what you need more often than trying

489
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,719
Speaker 4: to lead from that rather than just like pushing it

490
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 4: and suppressing it, which I do think a lot of

491
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 4: men and sometimes myself I do.

492
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 3: I just checked the camera to see if you're reading

493
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 3: off a book that was so poetic. I know now

494
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 3: you speak honestly. It's where did you learn who in

495
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 3: your life or where did you learn to speak like that? Harry,

496
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 3: because not everyone.

497
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 4: Can Probably something, Georgie, your partner will no wrong. The

498
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 4: re Foundation, I was so grateful. The re Foundation is

499
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 4: the youth organization who does a lot of community work

500
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 4: goes out to schools. They actually come out to my

501
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 4: school when I was sixteen years old, and I think

502
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 4: even before that, I was always someone who was super curious.

503
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,160
Speaker 4: I think naturally every young person is. But I think

504
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 4: they gave me a chance to sort of delve into

505
00:23:56,040 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 4: myself and show what I found and not feel judge

506
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 4: for what I found, which I think is really special

507
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,880
Speaker 4: for young people to feel. And I was with them

508
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 4: for as a participant at the start, and then I'll

509
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 4: become a crew member myself. And I just think I

510
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 4: got like five years of my life where I was

511
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 4: able to one delve into myself but then also sort

512
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 4: of ask young people about their lives and how their

513
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 4: experience shapes them and stuff like that, which I don't know.

514
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 4: I think. I think imagine a school system where we

515
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 4: focus more on emotional intelligence rather than achievement based stuff.

516
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 4: I would love to see that. And I just think

517
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 4: the system we have right now is just very much

518
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 4: achievement base. You know, you get that a you feel good,

519
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 4: your parents will support you, the teachers will celebrate you more.

520
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,959
Speaker 4: But I would love to see a school system if

521
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 4: it's shaped more around like turning into a good human

522
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 4: or but unfortunately that's just not how the system is.

523
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 2: Look the Reach Foundation, you are so right, Harry does

524
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 2: such incredible work and one asset you are as a

525
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 2: product of them, but now also preaching their word. But

526
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 2: I want to know you. Obviously I have done so

527
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,880
Speaker 2: much work on yourself. We can see that you live

528
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 2: it every single day. When are you one of the

529
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 2: little twiggy branches though on the tree, right, who's just

530
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 2: like struggling and it's just getting absolutely pummeled in the

531
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:14,119
Speaker 2: wind and you're like, no, like what makes you frazzled?

532
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 4: I think there's always parts in our personality that naturally

533
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 4: they're at different stages of evolution, right. I think there's

534
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,199
Speaker 4: parts of my personality that still feel like a bit

535
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 4: of a child, and I don't have full control over

536
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 4: or enough awareness on or you know, I haven't had

537
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 4: enough exposure therapy. So then when I get like the

538
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 4: slightest sense that someone's going to snap that branch, you know,

539
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 4: like I feel really insecure. I'm trying to think of

540
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 4: an example. I think one of my biggest life stories

541
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:50,119
Speaker 4: is I felt from a young age people question my manhood.

542
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,679
Speaker 4: Probably the reason why I started boxing, and I think

543
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 4: that someone if someone was to question my manhood or

544
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 4: my capabilities, there is something inside of me that falls

545
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 4: too familiar foe, and I want to try and prove

546
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 4: that I'm a man. I want to try. And I

547
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 4: think that's just like opening up a pretty deep wound

548
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 4: for myself that I felt quite insecure about my masculinity.

549
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 4: And if someone says that I couldn't, let's say, run

550
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 4: a marathon right now, I'd probably just go run a marathon.

551
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 2: Just You'd be fine, You'd be absolutely fine.

552
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's probably the one area though, where I'm like,

553
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 4: if someone close to me, especially it was just some

554
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 4: random blog, I probably wouldn't care. But if it was

555
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 4: someone close to me, like let's say, like my dad,

556
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 4: was to question something inside of myself, there would be

557
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 4: something inside of me that wants to try and prove

558
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 4: that I am capable.

559
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 3: Oh, you've got two type a's here that are not

560
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 3: nodding along one hundred percent being like me, let me

561
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 3: prove that I can do things. But what I find

562
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 3: so incredible about you, Harry, is that you speak really

563
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 3: openly about having a critical internal monologue. Sometimes. Yes, we

564
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 3: both do as well. I do that by trying to

565
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 3: protect myself, and sometimes when opportunities come up are a

566
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 3: bit scary, I just say no. I'm like, oh, there's

567
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 3: definitely chances there where I could look you know, silly,

568
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 3: or it's not in my usual realm, so I'm not

569
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,199
Speaker 3: going to do it. You seem to go, I'll have

570
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 3: a crack. I'm a celebrity. Sure, get me in there.

571
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 3: Dancing with the stars. Yeah, boxing's dancing, like get up?

572
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 4: Yeah?

573
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 3: Do you have those voices going, oh, this is making

574
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 3: me nervous, so I have to do it. Is that

575
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 3: the way that you approach life? Because I admire it

576
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 3: so much.

577
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's so interesting because I think we

578
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 4: naturally do compare our lives what other people are doing. Right,

579
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 4: But I face that stuff like daily, you know, even

580
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 4: like you know, you'll be running and I've paid attention

581
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 4: to like I call it my ego. But I'll be running.

582
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 4: Let's say, and I'm doing a five k run, and

583
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:44,880
Speaker 4: you know, I run the first two k's really well,

584
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 4: and then about the two and a half k mark,

585
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 4: there's something inside of me going, like, you know, I

586
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 4: just settled down, You've got training later. It's trying to

587
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 4: look for a way out so I feel like we're

588
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 4: always facing voices inside of ourself, and don't get me wrong,

589
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 4: sometimes I fall to them, and sometimes I do listen

590
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,360
Speaker 4: to the voice, and sometimes I don't do the hard thing.

591
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 4: Like I'm human and I'm deeply flawed, but I do think.

592
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 3: Sure he's out on the human thing.

593
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 4: Think about it, think about this Georgian and I think

594
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 4: when you do push through that thing and you do

595
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 4: that hard session, or you follow that diet, or you

596
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 4: get to bed on time, like you always feel better

597
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 4: when you do the hard thing first.

598
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 2: It is true, but you are talking to two people, Harry,

599
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 2: who went to brunch instead of doing the city to surf.

600
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 1: So let's just like a layers. You know, everything is relative.

601
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: I understand.

602
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 3: We wouldn't tell the apple that You're.

603
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: So right, Harry.

604
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 2: I do want to get back into the ring because

605
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,959
Speaker 2: you do have this incredible fight coming up. It's going

606
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 2: to be big for you in more ways than one.

607
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 2: We understand, what do we know about your opponent Charlie Bell? Like,

608
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 2: what can you tell us about him?

609
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 4: I actually don't know much at all, which is I

610
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 4: just always a Queenslander and Queenslanders are always quite tough,

611
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 4: so he's a great record five and one. It's a

612
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 4: massive opportunity for him, of course, like you know, he

613
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 4: knocks off you know me like I think it sort

614
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 4: of propels to forward, you know. But I've had a

615
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 4: great preparation and I feel really excited just to get

616
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 4: back in there. And as I said at the start,

617
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 4: like there's got to be so many voices, you know,

618
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 4: in my head over the next week that are nervous

619
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 4: scared that we have thoughts as athletes of like I

620
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 4: hope that I break my leg walking down these stairs

621
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 4: so I don't have to fight. Yeah, I used to.

622
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 1: Think if that was uni assignments.

623
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 2: I was like, like, if I just got hit by

624
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 2: this car on this car buck not a big hit,

625
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 2: just a little grays I could.

626
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 3: It's a really normal thing for athletes with that performance anxiety,

627
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 3: where you know and you hear people like I think

628
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 3: Dylan Buckley spoken about it essentially saying I would hope

629
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 3: to do an injury during the week so that I

630
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 3: didn't have to play on the weekend. And when you're

631
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 3: starting to wish self harm in some level, that's a

632
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 3: level of anxiety that you're living in and your shoulders

633
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 3: are up and everything's up here the whole week. It's

634
00:29:59,280 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 3: a lot.

635
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's nuts.

636
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 2: But if one of those voices harry in your head

637
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 2: when you're in the ring, like it does you, does

638
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 2: your brain go quiet?

639
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, it definitely does inside the ring. I think I've

640
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 4: always thought, as you can probably tell, I have one

641
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 4: of the most active minds. Ever, it's quite annoying sometimes

642
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 4: I want to escape it a lot of the time.

643
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 4: But I think boxing is the purest form of meditation

644
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 4: for myself, Like the whole world goes silent, which is

645
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 4: so beautiful, and don't I don't like talking about this,

646
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 4: but I think it is probably good for maybe young

647
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 4: athletes to hear this, Like prior to the Tokyo Olympics,

648
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 4: some of the voices that were going through my head

649
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 4: my first major event, the Olympic Games. I've dreamed of

650
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 4: this from a young age. And I drew someone who

651
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 4: in my first fight, who was a massive puncher, really strong,

652
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 4: a knockout artist. I could hit me with any shot

653
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 4: and really flatten me. And I had all these voices

654
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 4: of like, you know, the ultimate fear of being humiliated.

655
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 4: My parents would be watching Australia's watching back over my

656
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 4: first Olympic Games, I'm going to get knocked out, like

657
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 4: to have all these internal voices and the ultimatums that

658
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 4: I probably won't go into detail what the ultimatums were,

659
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 4: but they were extreme, like the most extreme ultimatums you

660
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 4: could possibly imagine if I wasn't to get the outcome

661
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 4: that I wanted. And I think it's so wild to

662
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 4: face that as an athlete and to still push through

663
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 4: that and to still go like, and I think any profession,

664
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 4: you know that talk that you've got to do at

665
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 4: your work and you're so nervous, you put in so

666
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 4: much work and you're scared it's not going to work

667
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 4: or the PowerPoint it's going to screw up, like, and

668
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 4: we still push through and face them. And if that's

669
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 4: not evidence right there that we are so much more

670
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 4: capable than what we that voice is telling us, I

671
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 4: think it's yeah, I think it's just evidence. You know,

672
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 4: it's just evidence that we are capable and we are

673
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 4: strong and we are worthy of us.

674
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 3: It's Georgie, oh quote, the great Georgie Tunney in the

675
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 3: sport's just a mirror for life and that success, that battle,

676
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 3: that needing that team around you the highs and lows

677
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 3: is just a reflection of what people go through, but

678
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 3: on a different scale. And that's why we love it

679
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 3: so much. It's it's the personal stories and it's the

680
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 3: journeys of people. That is that chumblewamba. I get knocked down, yeah,

681
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 3: but again you're never going to keep me down.

682
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 6: Like that's that's that's.

683
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 3: The stuff that we love. It's that perseverance, right yeah.

684
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 2: And also I mean this is just me being curious, Harry,

685
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 2: have you ever been in a fight and your brain

686
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 2: is actually, you've absolutely nailed a punch. Yes, I know, lingo,

687
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 2: you've nailed it and you just go sorry, like you know, You're.

688
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 3: Just like like are you ever flinching?

689
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: They're like, ohez sorry sorry.

690
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 3: Like I mean, listeners, If it isn't any clearer that

691
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 3: Georgie is not a boxer, sorry, that'll be the moment.

692
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 3: That's the tell. I think, probably not a fight.

693
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 4: It's quite beautiful, like you're both in there. I've said this,

694
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 4: I reckon boxing or combat is arguably besides sex and

695
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 4: most intimate places you can go as a human, You're

696
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 4: locked in a cage. There's just this raw, unwavering energy

697
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 4: where you're trying to hurt each other, but there's no

698
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 4: real malice in what you're doing. But I definitely do

699
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 4: feel like that insparring when you're like hurting someone who

700
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 4: might not be as experience as you and you hit

701
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 4: them with a body shot and they're like, oh no,

702
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 4: oh my god, are you okay? Like I probably shouldn't

703
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 4: hit you that hard.

704
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 3: You're like, I know this is only meant to be

705
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 3: eighty percent. That one was one hundred. I'm very sorry

706
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 3: that you're now on the floor. How are your ribbs?

707
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 4: Yeah?

708
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 2: We we have a phrase that we say on this podcast, Harry,

709
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 2: which is air ambulance, and that can be used at

710
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 2: any stage, like I've kicked my toe.

711
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 1: Get the air ambulance.

712
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 3: You know, mild and were built for combat sports, mild inconvenience. Well, like,

713
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 3: we'll get the chop up, We'll.

714
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 1: Get the chopper. What makes what's like fun for you, Harry?

715
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 2: Like away from the ring, away from exercise, away from

716
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 2: like what.

717
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 3: Or do you have enough? Because I hate this question

718
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 3: because I don't have a hobby. Oh yeah, And I said,

719
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 3: like because people, so what do you do for fun?

720
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 3: And it's like, well, actually outside of work and keeping

721
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 3: the kids alive. Actually don't have rooms for like the

722
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,720
Speaker 3: hobby thing, Like, do you have people asking about hobbies

723
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 3: and you're life bro? You have no idea how much

724
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 3: striking I have to do it?

725
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 1: I sleep sometimes?

726
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 3: Or do you actually have hobbies?

727
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 4: No, I do. I think.

728
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 3: You crochet.

729
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 4: I don't have kids, so I feel really, I feel really.

730
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 4: I don't know what the word is, but I just

731
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 4: I can't wait for kids, but I don't have them yet,

732
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 4: so I don't I don't understand what the stresses a

733
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 4: like with kids. I can't imagine. I feel like your

734
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 4: whole life will be flip upside down. But I feel

735
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 4: like I separated myself from being only a boxer in

736
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 4: the last three years. It's probably the reason why Paris

737
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 4: maybe didn't go the way that I wanted to, you know,

738
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 4: I like, prior to the Tokyo Olympics, I was just

739
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 4: a boxer, and I did everything to be the best

740
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 4: boxer I possibly could be. Between the two Olympics, I

741
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 4: feel like I started to separate myself from only being

742
00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 4: a boxer, and I started to find heaps of interests

743
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 4: like I love for lo I love listening to heaps

744
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 4: of podcasts, I love writing. I spend so much time

745
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 4: in nature. Just things that I don't know light me up,

746
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 4: and I think mother nature for me is just like

747
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 4: it's something if you feel average, just go outside and

748
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 4: spend ten minutes in the sun and you'll instantly feel nice.

749
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 3: What's what's your business science for that?

750
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 4: Yeah?

751
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: What's your guilty pleasure?

752
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 2: Though, Harry, what's something that you do that you're like,

753
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 2: It's probably not the best for me, but I love it.

754
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:31,240
Speaker 4: I've probably got I probably wouldn't share. Probably I would

755
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 4: say food, Like obviously.

756
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 3: Boxing first post about meal.

757
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 4: I love a good pizza you're ordering, Yeah, I've rom

758
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 4: out of the sticks in Victoria, So like just those

759
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 4: good like you know, pizzas that are just like ten

Speaker 4: topics high a lot with.

761
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 1: Some sort of gross there's no wood fire here. It's

762
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: you pick up a pizza and it falls down.

763
00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: It's like you can't gravity can't actually like you can't

764
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 2: combat that.

765
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 1: I know exactly what you mean.

766
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 4: It's the deep dish and you're excited to wake up

767
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 4: in the morning because you know there's one.

768
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 3: You've got to ask, now, are you are you pineapple

769
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 3: on or off? For sure?

770
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 1: One hundred percent? You call yourself a personality.

771
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 3: Gal, you've got to get the bar surname. Italians will

772
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,799
Speaker 3: come for me, So I've just got to I've got

773
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 3: a hold on.

774
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 6: It.

775
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,280
Speaker 3: Must be like when you're physically exhausted and you've also

776
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 3: been watching everything that goes into your body, and then

777
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 3: someone dishes up a pizza with the lot there's a

778
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 3: that's a different level of joy. I'd levitate.

779
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:34,359
Speaker 1: Oh, I love it.

780
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 2: I love it, Harry, We've been so generous with your time.

781
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 2: A couple more questions from us before we let you go,

782
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 2: because we do know that you have a very intensive

783
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 2: weak ahead of you.

784
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,240
Speaker 1: Last one from me, what are we thinking about la.

785
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 4: I think at the moment, no, I think, and I've

786
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 4: got to unpack this a little bit more of myself,

787
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 4: but I think there is like, obviously, actually I'm sitting

788
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 4: here as a twenty seven year old man looking at

789
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 4: you know, I don't know how old the young boy is,

790
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,320
Speaker 4: but let's say a seven year old young boy who's

791
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,759
Speaker 4: just extremely embarrassed that he put himself out there. And

792
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,799
Speaker 4: I think I'm holding that young boy right now, and

793
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 4: I think he's quite you know, embarrassed, and he has

794
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:20,359
Speaker 4: every right to feel like that he put himself out

795
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 4: there and things he can go how he wanted to.

796
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 4: But also as well, there is another side. I'm sitting

797
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,760
Speaker 4: here as a logical twenty seven year old man knowing

798
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,359
Speaker 4: what it takes to be an Olympic gold medalist and

799
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 4: also knowing that I've never once chased money in my

800
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 4: life and we don't look after athletes in Australia Olympic athletes.

801
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 4: Should I say I finished the Tokyo Olympics with a

802
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 4: bronze medal and I owe people money? You know, you

803
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 4: can never put a price in your dream. But also

804
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 4: as well, I am conscious I want to be a

805
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 4: dad one day and I want to make sure that

806
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,240
Speaker 4: they have a roof over their heads and have opportunities.

807
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,439
Speaker 4: And I think if I was to try for LA,

808
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 4: that puts me back to thirty one before I can

809
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 4: have an opportunity where I can start making money and

810
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,320
Speaker 4: focusing on a career. And I think I've got to

811
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 4: also think about what I want to be when I'm

812
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 4: forty five, and when an Olympic gold medal is so

813
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 4: effing important for myself, but having a family is way

814
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 4: more important.

815
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you have an Olympic medal, no gold.

816
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,920
Speaker 3: Hey, hey, hey squinch, Hey, if you squinch, my friend

817
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 3: in the right line.

818
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 1: And we will be there to support you no matter what, Harry.

819
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:30,840
Speaker 2: But just so you know, I'm not sure if you

820
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 2: saw it, but when you said no to La your

821
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 2: first thing, I want there to be a zoom in

822
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 2: on Jelmy. It was like that episode of The Simpsons

823
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 2: when Ralph Wiggams's heart breaks and it's like you can

824
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 2: see his heart breaking, right, yeah.

825
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 1: Jelley was like no.

826
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 3: All I heard was no right now? Yeah, So I went,

827
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 3: you're telling me there's a chance, yeah, because I just

828
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:55,280
Speaker 3: couldn't the Olympics. And I know that obviously it means

829
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 3: so much to you, but for me, it just is

830
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 3: this pinnacle of opportunity and it would be so exciting

831
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 3: to see you go again. But I also want to

832
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 3: remind you, George and I have a strong theory that

833
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 3: you're not an adult to your thirty oh y, like

834
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 3: you're still growing and learning about who you are and

835
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,759
Speaker 3: what you're doing. But it's devastating for me to hear

836
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 3: someone who again is an Olympic medallist talk about the

837
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 3: fact that financial realities mean that pursuing what you do

838
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 3: is something that you're weighing up for I guess security

839
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 3: reasons and for the future of your family. Because as Australians,

840
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,839
Speaker 3: Olympics roll around every four years or Tokyo five years,

841
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 3: and we think, right, oh, where are the medals? Who's winning?

842
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 3: And we don't really look at the conditions that we're

843
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,439
Speaker 3: putting these athletes under for the four years to have

844
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 3: that moment when really it shines well in our country.

845
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 3: But what is our country doing to take care of

846
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 3: these athletes?

847
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, there was I think there was the Daily Olds.

848
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 4: Well the Daily Olds definitely posted it, but I think

849
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 4: I can't remember the exact statistic, but there was a

850
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 4: massive portion of elite athletes in Australia that are living

851
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 4: under the Yeah, you know, it's that's a crazy reality

852
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 4: to to think about. And I you know, I don't

853
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 4: I focus so hard in my life on my sport.

854
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 4: I don't have a degree, I don't have a qualification.

855
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 3: I could have fooled us all.

856
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, honestly, honestly, I think.

857
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 3: Communications degrees and I can tell you, yeah, you've got

858
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 3: one up on us.

859
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 4: But I've got to make I've got to also be

860
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,919
Speaker 4: conscious of like as I said, I've never chased money

861
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 4: in my life, and I don't I don't ever want

862
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 4: money to be something that I desire. But I do

863
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 4: know that if I can win a world title in

864
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 4: that process as well, I'll also make money that is

865
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 4: the reality of professional boxing, and then retire with my

866
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 4: respect and then focus on the family.

867
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:46,439
Speaker 3: Done.

868
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,399
Speaker 1: It's very achievable, sir, it's so achieved for you.

869
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 3: For you. Yeah, anything I were speaking to like the

870
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:57,239
Speaker 3: next Prime Minister of the country, I know, like I mean, honestly, honestly,

871
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 3: we just couldn't love you more and we're so excited

872
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 3: to watch this far. But Harry, if you hear me,

873
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,280
Speaker 3: I hope that you're not calling us on your phone

874
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 3: so that this actually works. But if you could whip

875
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 3: out your Instagram and just read for me the caption

876
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 3: that you posted on your last post, because for me,

877
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 3: it was so inspiring and I think it captures what

878
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,879
Speaker 3: boxing means to you, but also what boxing can mean

879
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 3: to kids. It's really incredible. If you don't mind.

880
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 4: Okay, first starters, I hate reading, but I'm going to

881
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:26,360
Speaker 4: do it.

882
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 3: You know what, give us your best day of Attenbrestole.

883
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 4: You can do it, Harry, Okay. Boxing teaches something no

884
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,840
Speaker 4: school ever will, How to get hit in the face

885
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 4: and stay calm, how to fail in front of a

886
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 4: crowd and keep going, how to stand back up when

887
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 4: every part of your body wants to quit. It teaches patience, discipline,

888
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 4: and respect, and above all, it teaches resilience in the ring.

889
00:41:55,880 --> 00:42:00,160
Speaker 4: There's no hiding, no one to blame, no excuses. Is

890
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:04,399
Speaker 4: the truth and the consequences of every choice. That kind

891
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 4: of honesty is rare. That's why boxing is more than

892
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 4: a sport. It's a classroom and every round is a lesson.

893
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 4: Some spend their lives avoiding pain. Boxes learn how to

894
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 4: walk through it and come out stronger.

895
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 3: I live for this, yes, sir, Harry Garside, Harry Garside,

896
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:26,920
Speaker 3: the best sport say.

897
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 4: I would love to claim that's mine.

898
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,800
Speaker 3: It's not mine who wrote that.

899
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:32,879
Speaker 4: I've got no idea.

900
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 3: This is when you say chat GPT is a wonderful thing. No,

901
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 3: that's what you just do.

902
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: One of those quotes. It's like, oh it was Monroe,

903
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:41,320
Speaker 1: Marilyn Monroe.

904
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 3: No, I'm not. I'm sure no one's Buddha Gandhi.

905
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 4: I'm sure out myself right now. I have definitely I

906
00:42:56,280 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 4: have definitely before on a photo created quote myself and

907
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 4: maybe we're not and said, I'm known because I don't

908
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 4: want to seem like an arrogant.

909
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 3: Harry, You've got I love that, but I don't want

910
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 3: people to know that.

911
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 1: I love that I'm seeing opportunities here. What I'm seeing

912
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 1: is ambulance.

913
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:25,879
Speaker 3: Well, Harry Garside, if that is your real name, thank

914
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,840
Speaker 3: you so much for coming on this podcast as you know,

915
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,360
Speaker 3: two of your most devoted fans for what you do

916
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 3: in the ring, but also just who you are as

917
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 3: a person. Thank you so much for your time and

918
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:36,440
Speaker 3: we'll be watching go get them.

919
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,279
Speaker 4: Thank you so much, guys, appreciate you both.

920
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: I mean, clear your schedules and just listen to that

921
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: whole chat again, just rewind it what a person.

922
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,879
Speaker 3: At different points, I forgot that we were doing the podcast. Yes,

923
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 3: like I thought I was listening to a podcast of

924
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,400
Speaker 3: one of the more profound speakers, honestly and just and

925
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 3: I was like, wow, it's amazing. Then I'm like, wait

926
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 3: my turn, yeah, and do we hang on? Gotta jump in. Yeah.

927
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:10,839
Speaker 3: He is just his perspective and outlook and everything else

928
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 3: and just how self aware he is is incredible.

929
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 2: It's genuine as well, which is the thing is because

930
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 2: he speaks so passionately, but it is all genuine like.

931
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 2: That is who Harry Garside is. He is such that

932
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,839
Speaker 2: deep thinker and to his own detriment sometimes he would

970
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,320
