76
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 2: where Deadlock was like okay at four am, we're going

77
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: to the river and you have to run down there

78
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,520

00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 2: It was very funny. The show runner, Kate Kate McCartney said.

84
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 2: At the beginning it was like summer camp and by

85
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 2: the end it was like a woitmen's prison, but it

86
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 2: was like a women's with the best food and the

87
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 2: best views you've ever seen. It's like, there's so much

88
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 2: worse places to be stuck, I think in Tasmania and

89
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 2: we were with our families and our friends and we

90
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 2: were like, oh, just drinking, he's the best whiskey, and

91
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 2: the show being like, oh, my wives are so hard.

92
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 4: Poochers. Yeah, I love.

Speaker 4: Do you remember?

97
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 2: Somebody brought up I can't remember what the font. It was. Honestly,

98
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 2: such a long time ago, It's like a year ago.

99
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 2: I don't even remember, like time is a construct at

100
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 2: this point. I think my favorite task was do the

101
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 2: bravest possible thing with a remas paper. And I was

102
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 2: going through a break up at the time, and so

103
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 2: I wrote my heart is broken in big letters so

104
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 2: that they could have its own shot. At the time

105
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: I thought it was cringe, But now that I'm over

106
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 2: the breakup, I'm like, that's quite beautiful.

111
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 2: Because we had the closing night, I have had about

112
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 2: two hours sleep, But so what I'll be doing person

113
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 2: three weeks I'll be very well rescue?

114
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 3: Yeah? Absolutely? What As a comedian, what is is the

115
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 3: ultimate goal?

116
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 2: Is it?

117
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 3: You know? Is it doing Edinburgh? Is it doing a

118
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 3: Netflix special?

119
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 2: I honestly think the ultimate goal for a comedian is

120
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,279
Speaker 2: just to be on a TV show. Yeah, I've already done,

121
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 2: so I think I've clocked that level. So I've been

122
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 2: I've been the boss and I'm the best stand up

123
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: comedian ever. I don't know. I think for me personally,

124
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 2: my goal was just to be on TV. I didn't

125
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 2: really think past that. I just love a chest really,

126
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 2: but I look Edinburgh is very hard. That's what I'll say.

127
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 2: Edinburgh Melbourne is hard, and I live in Atalia and

128
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 2: I have an audience here. Edinburgh is sort of like

129
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 2: starting from scratch again. Like I love comedy, but I

130
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 2: also love money unfortunately.

131
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:31,720
