And I can't 10 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 2: say that I was there at the start because I 11 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,840 Speaker 2: am only thirty one myself. But I think the philosophy 12 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 2: of the Wiggles has essentially stayed the same, and it's 13 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 2: always been about empowering young children and letting them be 14 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 2: comfortable and making sure that music was accessible to them 15 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 2: and basically having a lot of fun. 16 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 3: And speaking of those philosophies, Emma, I think one philosophy 17 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 3: that has changed, actually with your introduction to the group 18 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 3: has been that female empowerment and been the first female Wiggle. 19 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 3: How important is that ahead do you feel being the 20 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 3: first wi, first female Wiggle. 21 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 2: Initially at the beginning, I didn't think that much of it, 22 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 2: but we noticed that even though lots of families didn't 23 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 2: know who we were. When we had meet and greets, 24 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: most of the children would come and sit next to me, 25 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 2: maybe because I thought I was mum. 26 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 3: Anthony had no one you're gonna a photo with Anthony? 27 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 4: No, thank you, Anthony, Anthony would say, He's like, wow, 28 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 4: they're all like they would all feel like they just 29 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 4: come and sit next to me. 30 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: Come on, I think I'd prefer a photo with Captain Feathers. 31 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 4: Sorry. 32 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: Can we talk a little bit about Anthony because I 33 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: mean he is part of the O G wiggled Is 34 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: there a sense of you know, wow, what a gem 35 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: he's still playing, sort of like when Michael Jordan came back, 36 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: or is it a little bit like Pharnsie and he 37 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: does another comeback to her and it's like, all right, mate, 38 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: you're playing to a winery and everyone.
