1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nation.

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 2: Channel ten is in dire straits apparently.

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:11,639
Speaker 3: Well there's you know, they're in a merger or controlled

4
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 3: by Paramount Overseas, and there's all kinds of corporate shenanigans.

5
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 3: I'm not sure what's going on, but Channel ten has

6
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 3: been in trouble for some time. There's big speculation as

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,080
Speaker 3: to whether a population of our size can sustain three

8
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 3: freewomware networks. But this sort of came to it, not

9
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 3: came to a head, but came to light yesterday when

10
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:32,880
Speaker 3: it was announced a couple of their big shows won't

11
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,279
Speaker 3: be coming back. They won't be my singer, and they

12
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 3: won't be The Bachelor, and all the various franchises that

13
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 3: come from that Bachelorette, Bachelor's in Paradise, three Bachelors and

14
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,240
Speaker 3: a Little Lady, all that kind of stuff.

15
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 4: Well, you know, I have a mixed relationship with The

16
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 4: Bachelor because I was going to be the Ginsburg character

17
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 4: new audition for it.

18
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 2: What they called me, I didn't audition. They rang me.

19
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 4: They said well and I said well, firstly they said

20
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 4: we weren't you for the Bachelor. I said, hey, guys,

21
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 4: I am married. No, no, we want you to host

22
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 4: them at the time, why don't you get Andy g

23
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 4: was his name was back then, And they said, no, no,

24
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 4: we don't want a fox in the henhouse. We've got

25
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,040
Speaker 4: an old bloke that's not going to run off with

26
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 4: the girls.

27
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 2: And I'm okay, fair enough.

28
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 4: So anyway, I went for the audition and I am

29
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 4: not a good auditioner. I just can't do it because

30
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 4: I instantly told myself this isn't going to happen.

31
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 2: We're all wasting that time. But I actually went along

32
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 2: and they really liked it. It went really, really well.

33
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 4: And at the same time, Dancing with the Stars came

34
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 4: calling and I said, we'd like you to go and

35
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 4: dance with the Stars.

36
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 2: And I said to my agent, I said, well, well

37
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 2: what do I do?

38
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 4: And I said, you know, the Bachelor is you that's

39
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 4: your gig, dance with the Stars.

40
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 2: Just put that on a backburner, just tell them, yeah,

41
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 2: sure you're interested.

42
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 4: Then I get a call on holidays after I've been

43
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 4: told it's a lock, it's happening, and my agent rings said,

44
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 4: what's you say.

45
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 2: For the Bachelor? What's your ring side?

46
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 4: So I've had and I really liked hosting The Bachelor,

47
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 4: and when I did this. I got what it's all about,

48
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 4: and I got it's like being avuncular guy. And I

49
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,559
Speaker 4: think I would have done a better job. Just quite frankly,

50
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 4: I think would have done a great job anyway. Channel

51
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 4: ten just didn't see well Channel ten, you know, so

52
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 4: I'm not unhappy to see it. Co For me, it's

53
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 4: like it would have been a good gig.

54
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 3: But the demise of Channel ten no one like they're

55
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 3: saying maybe in a decade there may not be a

56
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 3: Channel ten, which would be a terrible shame. I've got

57
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 3: great affection for Channel ten. I know, did the living

58
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 3: room licked you?

59
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 2: That's speed.

60
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 3: Television career isn't forever. No career in the media is forever,

61
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 3: and you can't always choose your dismount radio. But I

62
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 3: think that it'd be a shame all those jobs, all

63
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 3: those careers, all those hard working people who are still

64
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 3: working hard at Channel ten. I feel for them. All

65
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 3: these news stories come out.

66
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 2: I don't want them to go.

67
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 4: I want them to, you know, just say, when they

68
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,639
Speaker 4: asked me to do something, just do it.

69
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: Don't dick me around.

70
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 3: Well, we've all had dick around. This is the media.

71
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,119
Speaker 2: We've all been dicked around like it, don't waste my time.

72
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 3: But there were some big moments from the batchelor. Let's

73
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 3: look back at some of our faves. If you recognize

74
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 3: this audio dunk Remember the chocolate bar.

75
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 2: Chocolate Bar.

76
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 3: They filled a bath with chocolate and they sat in

77
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 3: it and even dunked under it, and bubbles came up and.

78
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 2: That's what they got all their fruit and nut from there?

79
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 2: Was that?

80
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 4: What about Jared? Remember the Bachelor Offspring with Sophie Monk

81
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 4: and Jared.

82
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 3: Oh, she was a Bachelorett Bachelor Offspring.

83
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 2: That's another franchise.

84
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 4: She rejected poor old Jared, and then he went the

85
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 4: blood on the beach someone else. I'm sorry now you

86
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 4: got me here and it still wandering on that beach

87
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 4: to this day.

88
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: He's kicking out at rocks.

89
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 3: Oh that was the longest walk I've ever seen on television.

90
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 3: Do you remember Bachelorette Season six? The Honey Badger? Remember

91
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 3: how that'll wrapped us. I can't give one hundred percent

92
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 3: of me to you, stars area to wholeheartedly commit to you.

93
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: And then he didn't pick either of the gals.

94
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 4: I have something I need to tell you that's almost laughable.

95
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 4: Picked nobody. He picked nobody.

96
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 3: All those pretty girls and he picked nobody.

97
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 2: My favorite one, though, it was the crying bachelor.

98
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 4: Was the guy that went the bluff because Tim was

99
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 4: leaving the Bachelor House?

100
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 2: Who was that?

101
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 3: The guy that went this was actually a Bachelor in Paradise.

102
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 3: It was Jamie and Jamie was crying because Tim was

103
00:04:50,760 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 3: leaving or was it the other way around?

104
00:04:56,200 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: TI, I'm not, I'm not.

105
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 4: They need I'd love to host that show. Well, look

106
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 4: probably still be going. Look this, I've been doing this

107
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 4: in Sydney for how many years now?

108
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: Twenty years?

109
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 3: So you're the magic touch to all showing. So well

110
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 3: you're on the Living.

111
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 2: Round once twice once once once? How long did that

112
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: show go to?

113
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 3: It will be about your network's not collapsing because you're

114
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 3: not on it.

115
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 4: I think it is and you look Channel ten collapses.

116
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 4: They didn't go with me for the bet.

117
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 2: Oh my god,
