Speaker 1: Is it just me a podcast by a couple of midges.
Speaker 2: This is very exciting because I've got my podcast husband
Speaker 2: with me and my television wife, Sophie Monke is here.
Speaker 3: Look at you cheating on me.
Speaker 2: I know right, I've been found out. How are you?
Speaker 2: Thank you for coming on?
Speaker 3: I'm good and thanks for coming on the show. You
Speaker 3: were so good on beauting the geek. People were writing
Speaker 3: to me that I should be your podcast?
Speaker 2: Why really?
Speaker 4: Oh, murrying out said.
Speaker 3: Here, yeah, sorry, they did, so we should have podcast.
Speaker 3: I did actually ask me. Jennie said, he's already taken.
Speaker 2: She did on the rooftop. In between takes, like when
Speaker 2: they were loading beauties and geeks in and out of
Speaker 2: the studio, we would run up to the rooftop have
Speaker 2: a coffee. So if it was like, oh, so what's
Speaker 2: your movements with podcasts? Is there you have any extra
Speaker 2: time in the week if I'm very busy, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: Yeah, We'll were killing two birds of one Stone today.
Speaker 1: It's a shame we couldn't get you in studio today.
Speaker 1: Sof with you know, Sydney Lockdown and everything, because I
Speaker 1: was hoping to get you to sign my physical.
Speaker 4: Copy of your single Inside Outside.
Speaker 1: I still have all the old CD that I have
Speaker 1: when I was little embarrassing.
Speaker 3: Oh, I feel like you and my family are the
Speaker 3: only one that has a copy of that I didn't
Speaker 3: do well.
Speaker 4: I still know the words, what.
Speaker 2: Are the lyrics? Turn the beat around? I'm sorry, Mitch
Speaker 2: was a little gay boy in the country growing up
Speaker 2: in bogen Gage.
Speaker 4: You know what though?
Speaker 1: The CD single, I don't know if you remember so,
Speaker 1: but it came with like a pull out poster, and
Speaker 1: because I had a poster of Sophie Monk in a
Speaker 1: bikini on my wall, my parents were.
Speaker 4: Like, oh, maybe he's straight.
Speaker 3: Well, and it's such a camp photo of anyway.
Speaker 1: It is so camp I'll have to get you to
Speaker 1: sign it another time.
Speaker 4: But hey, I wanted to ask.
Speaker 1: That's obviously your old music back in the day, but
Speaker 1: I want to know when there's new music coming, because
Speaker 1: you posted on your Instagram late last year a little
Speaker 1: teaser of a song that you'd recorded.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've got it. Yeah, some time burlesque vibe.
Speaker 4: So I got a big thing say, it's very like James.
Speaker 2: Bond really adele Yeah generous now, I said, dell like
Speaker 2: a computer. Sounds like it was made on a Dell computer. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you heard me.
Speaker 1: And so the Instagram post was basically saying, Hi, guys,
Speaker 1: be honest, should I release this? I didn't see one
Speaker 1: person say anything discouraging you from releasing it, and yet
Speaker 1: we haven't seen the song yet. When you're getting new
Speaker 1: music because I love this ship.
Speaker 3: Well I delete the bad comments anyway. I did. I've
Speaker 3: shot the music video for it. We're just waiting on
Speaker 3: the final edit to release it. It's a very different sound,
Speaker 3: but it's just that's what I wear. I'm pumpfy is it? So?
Speaker 2: Is it just to like pop coming out?
Speaker 3: Well, I'm not gonna win an aria anytime. I don't
Speaker 3: never want anything in my life, So I think it's
Speaker 3: just for people if they want to listen to it.
Speaker 3: And I like the vibe. It's different.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love this vibe.
Speaker 1: It's definitely not inside outside but like no, yeah, this
Speaker 1: is such a vibe.
Speaker 3: I'm into it.
Speaker 2: So you're so busy as well? What's coming up? TV wise?
Speaker 2: So because Bitty and the Geeks is rated filming obviously,
Speaker 2: so it's airing. Now, what do you have coming up?
Speaker 3: Yep? I love Island's coming out. Yeah that's the end.
Speaker 3: Of the year. But that's next to Lives. That's pretty
Speaker 3: much live. So I don't know much more than I'm
Speaker 3: doing it, shay, but just yeah, try and lock down
Speaker 3: in between that with the confusing lockdown that's going on.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, isn't it Where are you?
Speaker 3: You? Just?
Speaker 2: Don't you in Brisbane? Were you in Brisbane? Central Coast?
Speaker 2: I thought?
Speaker 3: Yeah, central Coast? Now yeah? But yeah, so I'm not
Speaker 3: Are you confused about the rules a bit? I'm like, so,
Speaker 3: can I go to work or not? So I'm just
Speaker 3: staying at home.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, if it's work that can't be done from home,
Speaker 1: I think you're allowed to leave.
Speaker 4: But I mean any excuses stay home.
Speaker 2: I reckon. Yeah, it's so bad for the radio show
Speaker 2: because my radio show is still classed as essential service.
Speaker 2: So every night I'm doing my stupid games and the
Speaker 2: only calls I'm getting the nurses because they're the only
Speaker 2: ones in there cars. I'm like, Sally, what are you
Speaker 2: doing tonight? She's like, I just ventilated a nineteen year
Speaker 2: old and I'm on my way home.
Speaker 3: Oh my, look at you that, Mitch. I love how
Speaker 3: you're still going to work like a frontline worker.
Speaker 2: Not good. Oh, so far. Hey, look, we love you.
Speaker 2: I think Beauty in the Geek was so fun? And
Speaker 2: how long ago did you guys film that? Oh?
Speaker 3: How long was that, Mitch?
Speaker 2: It would have been Yeah, it would have been an
Speaker 2: eight where I think it was end of March. End
Speaker 2: of March. We shot that in the studios and we
Speaker 2: were here for hours, like in there in that booth,
Speaker 2: just recording. We went delirious by the end. We were
Speaker 2: like you can see it in some of the takes,
Speaker 2: like I just keep hitting you, like I keep grabbing
Speaker 2: your shoulder because I was physically laughing so hard. We
Speaker 2: had so much fun that.
Speaker 3: Day, didn't we It was very fun.
Speaker 1: I've heard that TV takes like a lot longer to
Speaker 1: film than people realize, So, like, is that frustrating having
Speaker 1: to do TV sheets like that?
Speaker 2: So far?
Speaker 4: It's there all day for like not much footage that
Speaker 4: actually gets you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, not when it's about you, But when you
Speaker 3: have to see, say to a movie, when you're doing
Speaker 3: a movie and you're sitting in the trailer waiting for
Speaker 3: your turn, that's hard, you know, because you're just bored.
Speaker 3: But you know it's so entertaining a show like this,
Speaker 3: It doesn't get boring.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dre, and you're the host, so you know, there's
Speaker 2: more of you coming up. Like I had my auntie
Speaker 2: Julie and uncle Sam like in Queensland watching and they're like, oh,
Speaker 2: well we'll go get popcorn and keep watching. After the
Speaker 2: ad break, I'm like, oh no, that's it. I'm done.
Speaker 2: I'm out. There's not much more of me. Maybe in
Speaker 2: a promo, but I was so great. So and you've
Speaker 2: got your wedding coming up to when is that that's exciting?
Speaker 3: Oh? I haven't booked it yet, we have done anything.
Speaker 3: I think we'll do low key because yeah, that's exactly right.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I think I'm just still from home. The
Speaker 3: safest way to do it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, soph was telling me guys that she actually used
Speaker 2: the prop department from Beauty and the Geek to like
Speaker 2: set design her engagement party.
Speaker 4: I'm so smart.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at you and I can tell that your
Speaker 1: house is beautiful, so like I would get married there too.
Speaker 3: Oh thank you. Oh you were lucky. It's not massive,
Speaker 3: it's just open and nice, you know. So just it's
Speaker 3: safer us to do it at home, just with him
Speaker 3: and I.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's fiance life going good. Because you're like, you
Speaker 2: committed now, so you're in it for the long time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's awesome. I think I'm doing his heading, but
Speaker 3: I love having him around. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Hey, I remember a few years ago, back when I
Speaker 1: was still in high school. I was in the car
Speaker 1: with mum and she had star FM Orange tuned into
Speaker 1: the radio, and I heard you talking, and I was like,
Speaker 1: is that the same Sophie Monk that I listened to
Speaker 1: her music? Like inside outside, This can't be the same
Speaker 1: Sophie Monk you were filling in for Feefee Box at
Speaker 1: the time, And oh, yeah, you've done heaps of radio
Speaker 1: years after that. Is that something that you're just kind
Speaker 1: of done with radio? Or could you do that again
Speaker 1: full time?
Speaker 3: I love radio, but I love everything too. Breakfast radio
Speaker 3: is tough. I think it just it really messed with
Speaker 3: me because we had no ratings either. I remember there
Speaker 3: was a newspaper that read for people that are blued
Speaker 3: and that got higher ratings than our shots. Say, getting
Speaker 3: up early to do you know shit? Radio said that
Speaker 3: early booms you out, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it helps when you're very the filling gale and
Speaker 2: I'm the filling guy. Like, we don't get the show.
Speaker 2: We just get called up when someone has diarrhea or
Speaker 2: a baby, like, then we fill in on the show.
Speaker 2: That's us, that's what we do.
Speaker 3: I like it that way. The substitute teacher.
Speaker 2: We like, yeah, the b side Yeah.
Speaker 1: And doesn't everyone get like a big sigh of relief
Speaker 1: when they've got a sub teacher they realize that they're
Speaker 1: teacher the way and they're like, oh great, this is
Speaker 1: going to be a loose lesson.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and no, it's not rating sor it either, so
Speaker 3: there's no pressure on you to have a good shot.
Speaker 4: Now, there's one.
Speaker 1: Question that I like to ask all of our guests.
Speaker 1: You are welcome not to answer, but we have a
Speaker 1: list of things better than drugs and dick that we're
Speaker 1: working on gradually.
Speaker 4: It's kind of like it's kind of.
Speaker 1: Like something small in life that you appreciate. Some people
Speaker 1: might say, you know, a pair of slippers or what
Speaker 1: did Anche Bishops say?
Speaker 2: God bless her?
Speaker 4: Vision's just gone sober.
Speaker 1: And so he was saying that things he believes are
Speaker 1: better than drugs and dick are getting up early writing
Speaker 1: a gratitude journal.
Speaker 3: So like a nice cool polease yeah wow, might would
Speaker 3: been Jimmy Brings Jimmy.
Speaker 2: That's good. No one has said alcohol.
Speaker 3: Yeah, delivered a cold and comes in like, you know,
Speaker 3: twenty minutes. Yep, that'd be it.
Speaker 1: I actually used Jimmy Brings for the first time not
Speaker 1: long ago, and I thought because it was like delivery service,
Speaker 1: they would jack up the prices. But it was just
Speaker 1: like going down to the bottle and getting a couple
Speaker 1: of cheap rosees.
Speaker 4: Like it was great.
Speaker 3: Yeah, without the embarrassment.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can stay in your oak boots. They do
Speaker 2: Siggi's too. Did you know you can get cigarettes with Jimmy?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do know that. That was a big night
Speaker 4: when I had cigarette.
Speaker 2: I'm not a smoke of it. The one time I
Speaker 2: did Jimmy Brings, I'm like, yeah, I'll get some Malborough Reds.
Speaker 1: Why not.
Speaker 4: I was so wasted that night. I got a selfie
Speaker 4: with the guy that brought me cigarettes in the Jimmy Brings.
Speaker 2: No like Jimmy's he ye, No, I'm Stephen and I
Speaker 2: paid casually. I'm twelve, all right, So for we love you,
Speaker 2: We've kept you long enough. Great to have my two
Speaker 2: mediate partners look at me. Polyamorous is that what's called?
Speaker 2: Is it monognous.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're in an open co host relationship and creative relationship.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so what does Mitch and I then? Does that
Speaker 3: make us the mistresses?
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're the mistresses.
Speaker 1: So we actually hate each other and they try to
Speaker 1: poison each other behind our back stuff like that.
Speaker 3: What does that make me?
Speaker 2: Oh, Jenna, what's Jenny? I like that? That's so funny.
Speaker 3: The person you have to invite to the wedding that
Speaker 3: you don't want to.
