1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: Dumb mission with Jones and Amanda Well.

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 2: The fabulously awkward and heartwarming series Beauty and the Geek

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:11,200
Speaker 2: is back after a seven year hiatus. Wow hosted this

4
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 2: time round by the wonderful Sophie Monk. Hello, Sophie, how

5
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 2: are you?

6
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: Good morning?

7
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 2: Go there?

8
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: Are you going?

9
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 3: Great to talk to you? Doing a great job on

10
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 3: the show? I must say, what's it like hosting a

11
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 3: dating show? Now that you'll happily partner it up?

12
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: That's about time, isn't it? If? I seemed to me

13
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: like the love Gurum shows, which is ironic when I

14
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: got engaged like forty. But it's such a fun show

15
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:35,560
Speaker 1: to host.

16
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 2: It's an interesting premise and it sort of plays into

17
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 2: the stereotype attractive girls a shallow, nerdy, dorky guys are unappealing.

18
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 2: This sort of tries to put that on its head

19
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 2: a little, doesn't it.

20
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 1: It does, And as you watch it and go on,

21
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: you realize, yeah, they you know, I think a lot

22
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 1: of the beautis go in thinking they should be that,

23
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: and then you just see so much heart, you know, Yeah.

24
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 3: Could you see it? Time where the roles are reversed,

25
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 3: So the beauties of the guys and the geeks of

26
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 3: the girls.

27
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I think a lot of the girls are geeks,

28
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 1: you know, deep down as well. And wait for the makeovers,

29
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: Like gig doesn't mean you're not attractive, you know, it's

30
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: the makeovers. They come out pretty good.

31
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 2: It was in a way this has been like your

32
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: story gorgeous. But you do own up to the fact

33
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 2: that you're in a in a dork. Really, these are

34
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 2: your own words, so you probably have some experience in

35
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 2: drawing that out of the girls a bit.

36
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so. But I think we've all got

37
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: a bit of geek in us, don't we. Really?

38
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 2: Yeah? And it's all that Instagram life where you see

39
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: beautiful people and you make assumptions about them, but really

40
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: we're all shades of gray, aren't we.

41
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,839
Speaker 1: That's exactly right. I mean Instagram for the worst, isn't it.

42
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: The man of filters, Like even I use is that crazy.

43
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: With the Lino filter that I have on my camera?

44
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 3: Man, it goes for the Lino filter. So for you

45
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 3: just said you're forty are you forty one?

46
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: Now?

47
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: When did that happen?

48
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: Yeah? When did the forty one years ago born?

49
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 3: Yes? I know, But what I mean is like I

50
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 3: remember when you first burst onto the scene as bar

51
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 3: part of Bardo, you were like twenty and all of

52
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 3: a sudden, and I remember interviewing you when I used

53
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 3: to host this show called Planet Rock and Bardo was

54
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 3: just starting out, and I just said, now you're forty one.

55
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 3: I feel like I feel like that movie Highlander. I've

56
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 3: been around for a thousand.

57
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 2: Well it does make you one thousand years on out.

58
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:27,839
Speaker 3: I'm fifty three.

59
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: Oh, there you go. Yeah, we're all getting old, isn't it?

60
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: Like you blinket it's over. I was like, Oh, been

61
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: in the industry for twenty one news, now that's crazy.

62
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you're still putting bums on seats. This is good.

63
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't know. I think that's questionable, but I'm

64
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: still around.

65
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 2: So with the guys who would appear apply to be

66
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 2: on this show, they get to meet gorgeous girls, and

67
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 2: they get to have people pampa and all that. Why

68
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: do you think the girls go on?

69
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: They definitely go on for the right reason because I

70
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: saw all their casting as well, and I think, you know,

71
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: there's other shows that could go on. They wanted different

72
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: walks of life, Like I think a lot of them

73
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: have been burnt by, you know, dating kind of people

74
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: in their circles. You know, they don't go out and meet,

75
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: you know, geeks don't go out and socialize, and they

76
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: really wanted to meet, you know, and learn genuinely. You'll

77
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: see that as the show goes on. It's pretty genuine. Yeah.

78
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 3: Has there been any successful couples from Beauty in the

79
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 3: Geek in the history of it?

80
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 2: Do you know?

81
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: Well? I didn't care before I was on it. But

82
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: it's so different as well, you know, a bit more

83
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: one dimensional and a bit you know, one trick body.

84
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: It's so different, so I wouldn't know, but I'm telling

85
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: you there was no pressure on romance, but it was

86
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: just like it kicked in like a lot of romance.

87
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 3: Well, there it is. Life didn't begin in the Beauty

88
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 3: and Geek world until Sophie Monk was hosted and right

89
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,760
