Hello, 8 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:36,840 Speaker 2: Welcome to your pod Diary. This episode I'm almost recording 9 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 2: in such real time that as soon as I stop 10 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 2: recording it, Boss is going to upload it straight away 11 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,919 Speaker 2: and it'll be Friday in Australia and where you go. 12 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 2: The reason why I held off recording it until now 13 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 2: is because I have just returned home from set. So 14 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 2: I went on a news show here in Los Angeles 15 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 2: called Katie La, and I did all these healthy fall 16 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: which is autumn here recipes and so we did simple swap. 17 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 2: So what this is basically how it goes is you 18 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 2: get booked and then you have to go out and 19 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: get the ingredients and have If you ever do recipes 20 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 2: on television, you kind of need to have the hero 21 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 2: final recipes already made. So Boss and I cooked a 22 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: lot of the food because it was five recipes last night, 23 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,639 Speaker 2: and then I set my lum for early this morning 24 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 2: and got up and did the fresh like apple crumble 25 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 2: and all that this morning, so that by the time 26 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: you get to set, essentially all you're doing is just 27 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 2: dressing the table, shooting your cutaways, and then you do 28 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 2: your actual segment. 29 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: So it was a lot of fun. I'll take you 30 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: through it. 31 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 2: I actually just filmed put up a whole instoreel of 32 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 2: like behind the scenes, so you can get a little 33 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 2: taste of behind the scenes on this like awesome iconic 34 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: TV set that's been so so it's shot at the 35 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 2: Sunset Bronson Studios in Hollywood, so it does feel very 36 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: like But do you know what I mean when I 37 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: say that I'm trying to make the Hollywood sound the 38 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: Fox fanfare sound like. It feels very very Hollywood. Even 39 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 2: the green room has got like a Hollywood like backdrop. 40 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: But basically, the recipes that we did and I'm going 41 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: to post them all on my substack and therefore Instagram 42 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: cauliflower mash in the place of potato mash, apple crumble 43 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 2: with oat topping instead of pastry pumpkin spice smoothie in 44 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 2: the place of a pump and spice late pump and 45 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 2: spice chia putting in the place of pumpkin pie and 46 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 2: maple date protein balls in the place of maple blazed donuts, 47 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 2: which are a massive thing here. So basically this time 48 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 2: of the year, ahead of October, America releases all it's 49 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 2: pump and spice things, like Starbucks does this famous pumpk 50 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 2: and Spice latte, to the point that I believe August 51 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: twenty six is like the unofficial like they call it 52 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 2: PSL Day Pumpkin Spice Latte Day, so Americans go mental 53 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 2: for it. But even Traded Joe's like, they've got pumpkin 54 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: spice bread, maple butter, pumpkin butter, Like there's like pumpkin 55 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 2: pie cakes and maple spiced ice cream. Like they don't 56 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 2: forget any of it. Like it's so I think it's 57 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 2: kind of fun, to be honest, But so what we 58 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: were doing with this segment is essentially creating healthy variations, so. 59 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: A lot of fun. Basically, it's all over pretty quick. 60 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 2: You do three cutaways, like three little teasers in the 61 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 2: lead up to the actual SEGGI, and then away you 62 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 2: go Bob Jungle, so fun and it was really fun. 63 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 2: The hosts Lou and Glenn were so lovely and tasted everything, 64 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 2: and yeah, it was a really really lovely and fun segment. 65 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 2: And it's amazing how much time and prep goes into 66 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 2: four and a half minutes, because about how long you're 67 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 2: on air. 68 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: For, it's pretty quick. All up. Australia is the same. 69 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 2: I think sometimes Seggi's in Australia consider like three three 70 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: and a half minutes. But back in the heyday, when 71 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: I used to fly over here and go on a 72 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: show called Home and Family, which is like was with 73 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,679 Speaker 2: the Hallmark Channel, you would literally do like nine minute 74 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 2: segments like split into two, so you do like four 75 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 2: and a half and four and a half and one'd 76 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 2: be making the dish live and then the other would 77 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 2: be feeding it to the hosts and then like reviewing 78 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 2: it for you and then they'd keep you miked up 79 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 2: and you'd co host the rest of the show.
