0:00:01.800 --> 0:00:04.040
<v Speaker 1>TV Reload the podcast last week Their Life.

0:00:04.720 --> 0:00:06.120

<v Speaker 1>makers like executive producers, writers, editors and casting agents, plus

<v Speaker 1>the talent we see on our screens. TV Reload reloads

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:27.200
<v Speaker 1>the shows that you're currently watching and gives you a

0:00:27.240 --> 0:00:31.600
<v Speaker 1>better insight into our television industry and our streaming services.

0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:33.919
<v Speaker 1>Today on the podcast to have the first one out

0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:36.360
<v Speaker 1>of the mass singer Australia on Channel ten, it is

0:00:36.440 --> 0:00:40.280
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Maloney, Australia's most love soap star, fresh from Neighbors.

0:00:40.320 --> 0:00:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Sad conclusion, we've been absolutely treated to this fantastic performance

0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:47.360
<v Speaker 1>by the celebrated actor, well known for his role as

0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Tody in the long running soap Neighbors. He was dressed

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:52.599
<v Speaker 1>as an it and slayed an ed sherance song, but

0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:56.080
<v Speaker 1>sadly was sent home first in the competition. The show

0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:58.400
<v Speaker 1>is a lot of fun and we have certainly had

0:00:58.440 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 1>some really impressive voices in the first episode and while

0:01:02.080 --> 0:01:04.559
<v Speaker 1>it was sad to see Ryan go. The first reveal

0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:08.479
<v Speaker 1>was a truly big shock for audiences and emotional to watch.

0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:12.240
<v Speaker 1>We will talk about keeping secrets, how the songs get picked,

0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:15.520
<v Speaker 1>what was planned next for his second performance, and what

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 1>exactly is next for one of Australia's most recognizable soap stars.

0:01:19.600 --> 0:01:22.319
<v Speaker 2>However, let's get started with today's guest. I'd like to

0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 2>welcome Ryan Maloney to TV Reload.

0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:28.200
<v Speaker 3>Apparently I've been on the radar for a while for

0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:29.959
<v Speaker 3>a number of different shows.

0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:36.800
<v Speaker 4>The massive back, bigger, better, muskier than ever. It's a

0:01:36.840 --> 0:01:38.480
<v Speaker 4>lot higher than what I can normally sing.

0:01:39.040 --> 0:01:40.080
<v Speaker 2>Will they be able to.

0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:44.640
<v Speaker 3>Work out which celebrities behind each mask? One of the

0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:52.760
<v Speaker 3>nicest comments was like I thought it was James Blunt. Yeah,

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:55.040
<v Speaker 3>essentially kind of learning how to sing the whole way.

0:01:56.320 --> 0:02:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Obviously, you are so recognizable to everyone as Toadfish Rebeccy.

0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:05.400
<v Speaker 4>And when I watched it last night, it was like, oh,

0:02:05.480 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 4>well that's not in it. It's a bit of a

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 4>deleted scene for you.

0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:09.240
<v Speaker 2>Hi mate, how are you?

0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:10.200
<v Speaker 4>I'm doing all right?

0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:11.880
<v Speaker 2>How are you doing very well?

0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:14.480
<v Speaker 1>I just want to know how quickly did you get

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:18.000
<v Speaker 1>approached for the mass singer after you heard Neighbors was

0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:18.799
<v Speaker 1>coming to an end.

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:25.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that was their first call after our neighbors got

0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:26.639
<v Speaker 3>asked was quick, let's get Ryan.

0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 4>Let's see what he wants to do. Come on, I just.

0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:31.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm going somewhere with this. I mean, it's a little

0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:33.520
<v Speaker 1>bit quick to be getting into it. But you know,

0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:35.800
<v Speaker 1>i'd wondered, had you been asked to do the show before,

0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:38.520
<v Speaker 1>or did they go, god, let's get the best of

0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:40.160
<v Speaker 1>the best from Neighbors.

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:41.160
<v Speaker 4>Oh, the best of the best?

0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:43.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh well, Alan Fletcher does like to have a sing,

0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:45.920
<v Speaker 3>so you know, I'm not sure if they got the

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:47.960
<v Speaker 3>best of the best. But you know, they just had

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:49.200
<v Speaker 3>to put up with me, so that's good.

0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:51.239
<v Speaker 2>Had they asked you to do the show before?

0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:53.839
<v Speaker 4>Not necessarily, No, not that one.

0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:54.280
<v Speaker 3>I think.

0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:56.920
<v Speaker 3>They say that we've been wanting to ask you to

0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:58.400
<v Speaker 3>do this for ages, but obviously with your.

0:02:58.280 --> 0:02:59.800
<v Speaker 4>Film and commitments, it makes it too hard.

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:00.600
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 4>Apparently I've been on the radar for a while for

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:06.799
<v Speaker 4>a number of different shows, so I don't know. We'll

0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:08.720
<v Speaker 4>just see kind of what happens.

0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, I interviewed you on the red carpet at the

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Logis and I asked you if you had been approached

0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>for a celebrity reality show, and I just was wondering,

0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:20.120
<v Speaker 1>had you already been asked to do the Mar Singer

0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:20.760
<v Speaker 1>at that point?

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:22.720
<v Speaker 4>Well, yeah, I went and shot it that following week. Yeah,

0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:23.800
<v Speaker 4>I was already locked in. Mate.

0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 1>There was this look on your face as I was

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:28.560
<v Speaker 1>asking it, and you kind of look towards whoever the

0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:31.160
<v Speaker 1>publicist that was near you, and I was wondering that

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:33.720
<v Speaker 1>was It stayed in my mind. It stayed in my mind,

0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>and I have the audio of you and I talking

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.160
<v Speaker 1>at the logis, which I'm going to put into the interview,

0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:40.240
<v Speaker 1>which is me asking you would you do the Mas

0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Singer or I'm a Celebrity. There's probably about like ten

0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>celebrity reality shows that are happening in the country.

0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:51.040
<v Speaker 2>Will you get tempted to doing one?

0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:53.320
<v Speaker 4>What was my answer?

0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:57.000
<v Speaker 2>No?

0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:59.720
<v Speaker 1>No. You were like, no, I'm not going to ever

0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:02.720
<v Speaker 1>do one of those shows. But then you oddly looked

0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:05.600
<v Speaker 1>around for your like whoever the publicists that had been

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.000
<v Speaker 1>set up with you, and I just from that was like, Oh,

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.240
<v Speaker 1>he's definitely on I'm a Celebrity or Mars Singer, and

0:04:10.240 --> 0:04:12.680
<v Speaker 1>then I just well that publicists didn't even know either

0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:13.680
<v Speaker 1>that's amazing.

0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:16.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so yeah, I think you might might have been

0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:21.159
<v Speaker 3>reading too read into the look, but you were correct

0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:21.800
<v Speaker 3>at the same time.

0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.120
<v Speaker 1>Look, it looks like I'm really good at this when

0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:26.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm absolutely terrible.

0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:27.480
<v Speaker 4>Now it was a good guess, well done.

0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:30.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, have you heard from some of the celebrities that

0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:32.520
<v Speaker 1>the panel thought you were, like maybe Fev.

0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:34.760
<v Speaker 4>No, I haven't heard, no, not yet.

0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 3>I was meant to do an interview with Fev this morning,

0:04:37.160 --> 0:04:40.000
<v Speaker 3>but maybe he just got a bit shy about that

0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:42.120
<v Speaker 3>and didn't want to be compared to, you know, to

0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:43.040
<v Speaker 3>my singing voice.

0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:46.159
<v Speaker 4>So unfortunately, Yeah, no, I didn't get to do that interview.

0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:50.359
<v Speaker 4>And no, the hoff hasn't called me either, you know,

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:51.920
<v Speaker 4>bit disappointed.

0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:52.240
<v Speaker 2>So disappointed.

0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 1>I thought you were Tristan McManus from Studio ten when

0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:57.400
<v Speaker 1>you started singing, and I was saying to the person

0:04:57.440 --> 0:04:59.359
<v Speaker 1>sitting next around, like, I think Tristan used to be

0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.280
<v Speaker 1>in a boy band, because this person can genuinely sing.

0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:04.080
<v Speaker 4>Oh that's nice. It's true.

0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:06.240
<v Speaker 1>You have a very good voice. You know, what was

0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:09.400
<v Speaker 1>the craziest guess that you saw from people online or

0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:11.080
<v Speaker 1>even on the panel, Like, what do you think the

0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:12.880
<v Speaker 1>craziest guess was for your voice.

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 3>I think probably either to be honest, the half or

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:18.280
<v Speaker 3>FEV because I don't know that either of them, either

0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:21.719
<v Speaker 3>of them can really sing, so I think that's definitely

0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:22.080
<v Speaker 3>up there.

0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:23.880
<v Speaker 4>I think the Honey Badger that was a pretty good one.

0:05:23.920 --> 0:05:24.400
<v Speaker 4>To be honest.

0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.919
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, I mean I didn't put two and two together.

0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:29.240
<v Speaker 1>But you know, it's a first episode, so I guess

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:31.800
<v Speaker 1>people are fairly fresh with their guesses so to speak.

0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:35.320
<v Speaker 3>It's warming up there, are there, They're getting muscles.

0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 2>Do you get to pick the song? Like?

0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:38.960
<v Speaker 1>How is that process? I feel like for me, I

0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:41.880
<v Speaker 1>would just go straight to karaoke. You know, you go

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:44.599
<v Speaker 1>to karaoke song. But were they very specific with the

0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:46.920
<v Speaker 1>songs that they wanted the celebrities to sing?

0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:49.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, pretty much to a certain point.

0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:52.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean with our first one, they I didn't know

0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:55.159
<v Speaker 3>that you could kind of have a choice, and from

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:57.440
<v Speaker 3>with the following ones that were put to you, it

0:05:57.480 --> 0:05:58.840
<v Speaker 3>was kind of like oh yeah, and they kind of

0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 3>gave you two choices, so I was like, okay, cool, Yeah,

0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:01.400
<v Speaker 3>I like that.

0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:02.440
<v Speaker 4>Other one, so we'll go with that one.

0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:05.479
<v Speaker 3>And I kind of jazz, but oh man, that song

0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.719
<v Speaker 3>is a really high song that ed sheeran song Bad Habits.

0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:10.680
<v Speaker 3>It's really high. It's a lot higher than what I

0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:13.560
<v Speaker 3>can normally sing. So I've basically spent you know, the

0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:15.960
<v Speaker 3>three or four weeks, you know, locked in a cupboard.

0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:18.440
<v Speaker 4>Trying to trying to learn how to sing that high?

0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:20.160
<v Speaker 2>What were the next song? What was the next song

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:20.880
<v Speaker 2>you were going to sing?

0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:22.880
<v Speaker 3>The next song was meant to be super Free, which

0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:24.520
<v Speaker 3>I was really looking forward to doing.

0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:27.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, well, it is funny that even you guys

0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:31.080
<v Speaker 1>don't know who else is underneath these masks, because I'm

0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:33.320
<v Speaker 1>guessing you watched the show on television last night. Do

0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:35.400
<v Speaker 1>you have a guess for any of the other masks,

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:37.160
<v Speaker 1>seeing as you've now heard their songs?

0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:38.400
<v Speaker 4>No, I've got no idea.

0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:41.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm actually really bad with actually knowing famous people, so

0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:43.039
<v Speaker 3>I'm the worst of that.

0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:46.839
<v Speaker 4>I'd be useless on that guessing panel, absolutely useless.

0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:49.160
<v Speaker 3>And last night I watched it with I want to

0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:51.839
<v Speaker 3>have some of my brother's house and they've got little kids,

0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:54.040
<v Speaker 3>so it was quite noisy in that house and they

0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:57.200
<v Speaker 3>were all very excited, so there was Yeah, I couldn't

0:06:57.279 --> 0:06:59.480
<v Speaker 3>quite judge who was actually singing.

0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:01.680
<v Speaker 1>I guess you know, your friends and family have probably

0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:03.880
<v Speaker 1>asked you a lot of questions about being on the show.

0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what's the most common question people have been

0:07:06.160 --> 0:07:08.560
<v Speaker 1>asking you about being on the series. I feel like

0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:11.200
<v Speaker 1>it's always did you sing live? But what's the question

0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:11.920
<v Speaker 1>you've been getting?

0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:15.160
<v Speaker 3>I think probably the most asked question is can you

0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.960
<v Speaker 3>see much out of that costume? Or what's the weirdest

0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:21.400
<v Speaker 3>part about it all? Because it is a very strange experience. Obviously,

0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:24.880
<v Speaker 3>everything's top secret, so you can't you can't tell anyone,

0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.880
<v Speaker 3>so you've got to try to, you know, sing in private.

0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:28.880
<v Speaker 4>So I don't know how.

0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:31.600
<v Speaker 3>It's really tough to actually get some you know, to

0:07:31.640 --> 0:07:34.880
<v Speaker 3>get some rehearsal space to actually do that, and even

0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:37.160
<v Speaker 3>like to the point where like at work, I was

0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 3>wandering around and then there's some audio recording boots that

0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:41.880
<v Speaker 3>I thought, oh, yeah, okay, I was just sticking to

0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 3>those and do some rehearsing, And then when I walked

0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:44.800
<v Speaker 3>in there.

0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:47.160
<v Speaker 4>I was like, I can still hear people outside. No, man,

0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:50.720
<v Speaker 4>come on, how hard is this? So yeah, it was

0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 4>actually that that part was pretty tough.

0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:56.800
<v Speaker 3>But you know, like when you're there, you're not allowed

0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:59.640
<v Speaker 3>to obviously speak to anybody because then you're not letting.

0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:02.040
<v Speaker 4>People aren't allowed to hear your voice.

0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:04.040
<v Speaker 3>And so you get you get a handler who, you know,

0:08:04.400 --> 0:08:07.760
<v Speaker 3>it's like this ex sas dude, you know, who comes

0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:10.400
<v Speaker 3>and picks you up and it's all top secret, and

0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 3>you get kind of put into the back of a

0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:15.000
<v Speaker 3>car and you get like this kind of big kind

0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:17.240
<v Speaker 3>of hood thing put over the top of you so

0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:19.760
<v Speaker 3>that if there's any paparazzi around, no one can see.

0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:21.760
<v Speaker 3>And then when you go in, you kind of put

0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:25.560
<v Speaker 3>into your own little kind of green room where nobody

0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:28.000
<v Speaker 3>apart from like say, the wardrobe person comes in, so

0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:30.720
<v Speaker 3>like it's very very limited to the people who you

0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:33.720
<v Speaker 3>actually can speak to or who are allowed to even

0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:37.240
<v Speaker 3>see you. So it's a very very funny, weird experience.

0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:40.079
<v Speaker 3>But it was so cool. I'm pretty bummed actually that

0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:42.720
<v Speaker 3>I got out so early, because I was really I

0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:45.360
<v Speaker 3>was starting to really really get into the mojo of it,

0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:46.040
<v Speaker 3>really enjoy it.

0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:46.960
<v Speaker 2>People loved it.

0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.280
<v Speaker 1>Like I've been online reading, you know, preparing for this

0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:51.960
<v Speaker 1>interview of course, you know, reading the tweets, reading what

0:08:52.000 --> 0:08:53.280
<v Speaker 1>people were saying online.

0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:55.080
<v Speaker 2>People were loving you on the show.

0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:57.320
<v Speaker 1>They loved the sound of your voice, and I'm I

0:08:57.400 --> 0:08:59.680
<v Speaker 1>must admit, I don't know what let you down to

0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:02.640
<v Speaker 1>be the first person eliminated. Maybe it was the night costume,

0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:05.240
<v Speaker 1>but certainly it wasn't the voice.

0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:07.360
<v Speaker 3>One of the nicest comments was like I thought it

0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:11.480
<v Speaker 3>was James Blunt. Like, boy, happy with that.

0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:13.240
<v Speaker 2>Now we know what you're doing.

0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:15.920
<v Speaker 1>After Neighbors. You're a full time singer and you're taking

0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:16.600
<v Speaker 1>it on to her.

0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:18.800
<v Speaker 4>I'm going to go and do a do an album

0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:19.600
<v Speaker 4>with James Blunt.

0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:22.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, if you'll have you, If you'll have you.

0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:23.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:25.760
<v Speaker 3>He might say no, we sound too similar, we can't

0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:29.040
<v Speaker 3>do it, and that I'd understand. And sorry, James, I'm

0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:30.880
<v Speaker 3>gonna have I'm gonna have to take this over from you.

0:09:30.960 --> 0:09:31.600
<v Speaker 4>I'm sorry, mate.

0:09:31.679 --> 0:09:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Do they have anything in the contract to say how

0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:35.200
<v Speaker 1>many people you're allowed to tell? Because I'm obviously going

0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:36.719
<v Speaker 1>to tell people, going to tell their partners or the

0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:39.079
<v Speaker 1>kids or you know whatever. If you do tell people,

0:09:39.120 --> 0:09:41.240
<v Speaker 1>do you have to ring say Channel ten and say,

0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:43.880
<v Speaker 1>by the way, add this name on the list I've

0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:46.760
<v Speaker 1>accidentally told my uncle or anything? Like how do they

0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:48.800
<v Speaker 1>how do they keep the amount of people you've told

0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:49.520
<v Speaker 1>a secret?

0:09:49.600 --> 0:09:51.880
<v Speaker 3>Well, you're not allowed to tell anyone, not even your partner,

0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:55.079
<v Speaker 3>no one, not even your You're not meant yeah, you're

0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:57.440
<v Speaker 3>not meant to be able to tell anyone. So but

0:09:57.600 --> 0:10:00.760
<v Speaker 3>you know, obviously there's logistics to that, and you know

0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:04.320
<v Speaker 3>you're just going to have to say, well, you know,

0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:07.640
<v Speaker 3>you can't keep it from your wife all of a sudden,

0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:09.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm just going to disappear, Like how do you do that?

0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:11.480
<v Speaker 4>They'll think you're having an affair.

0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's why Fev hasn't been on the show, because

0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:15.720
<v Speaker 1>he's worried his wife's going to think he's having an affair.

0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:18.160
<v Speaker 1>So he's like, oh, look, that show's that's problematic for me.

0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:19.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to have to side step it.

0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:23.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we've been down this path before and doesn't eny Well.

0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:26.800
<v Speaker 1>What was interesting was when you took your head off,

0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:29.719
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I felt personally I fell in love

0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:32.240
<v Speaker 1>with your version of that song a little bit more,

0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:34.480
<v Speaker 1>and reading online I think people did as well. Do

0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:37.320
<v Speaker 1>you think that's because of our long time affection for

0:10:37.440 --> 0:10:40.400
<v Speaker 1>you being on neighbors, you know, say as Tody that

0:10:40.559 --> 0:10:42.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, it was just nice to see your face

0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:42.440
<v Speaker 1>singing it.

0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:45.280
<v Speaker 3>Look, I really don't know. Look, in all honesty, I

0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:48.800
<v Speaker 3>was just really trying not to suck. So that was

0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:51.559
<v Speaker 3>that was just my main goal was just don't suck.

0:10:51.880 --> 0:10:54.480
<v Speaker 3>And because it's a very like, I'm not a singer,

0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:57.360
<v Speaker 3>so obviously, you know, locking yourself away in a cupboard,

0:10:57.440 --> 0:11:00.360
<v Speaker 3>you know, like singing against the walls so you can

0:11:00.400 --> 0:11:02.840
<v Speaker 3>try to hear your voice back, because obviously singing is.

0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:04.080
<v Speaker 4>A very audible experience.

0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:06.080
<v Speaker 3>You've got to be able to hear yourself and seek

0:11:06.080 --> 0:11:08.199
<v Speaker 3>a pitch and all that kind of jazz. And not

0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:11.440
<v Speaker 3>having had any kind of microphone experience with that, and

0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:13.199
<v Speaker 3>then when you get up to you know, when you

0:11:13.240 --> 0:11:16.560
<v Speaker 3>get up to Sydney and you do a recording of it,

0:11:16.800 --> 0:11:18.880
<v Speaker 3>and that's the first time you've actually heard yourself through

0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:22.960
<v Speaker 3>a microphone and through a head you know, through through headphones,

0:11:23.000 --> 0:11:26.720
<v Speaker 3>and you're like, oh, right, so that's what I sound like.

0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:30.080
<v Speaker 4>Oh okay, well I don't need to sing like that.

0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:32.959
<v Speaker 3>And you can change your voice and you can change

0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:35.120
<v Speaker 3>how much pressure you put on your voice and how

0:11:35.200 --> 0:11:37.320
<v Speaker 3>you're sing and so I was like, oh my gosh,

0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:40.120
<v Speaker 3>oh wow. And so that's that was a pretty cool experience.

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:42.920
<v Speaker 3>And then so you kind of only kind of really

0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:45.559
<v Speaker 3>get that experience once because then the next time you've

0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:47.400
<v Speaker 3>got a mic on, and then you've got in ears,

0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:52.240
<v Speaker 3>so the little earbuds, and with that you've got your

0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:55.600
<v Speaker 3>backing tracks and your click tracks, and you're like, oh, okay,

0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:58.000
<v Speaker 3>I've never sung with any of this before, and this

0:11:58.040 --> 0:12:00.720
<v Speaker 3>all sounds completely weird. And then you're like trying to

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:04.040
<v Speaker 3>get the levels right of like how much can you

0:12:04.120 --> 0:12:06.840
<v Speaker 3>hear of yourself back in your own ears, which is

0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:09.720
<v Speaker 3>you know, that's a different thing as well, so you're

0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:12.040
<v Speaker 3>essentially kind of learning how to sing the whole way.

0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:15.480
<v Speaker 3>And then so then you go out in the audience,

0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:17.760
<v Speaker 3>you know when you're doing and you're singing it live,

0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:20.680
<v Speaker 3>but then you've got you audience sound, and then you've

0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:22.640
<v Speaker 3>got the fold back and so once again when you

0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:24.800
<v Speaker 3>go and do it, do it live, that's that's something

0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:26.439
<v Speaker 3>completely different again, and you're like.

0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:28.760
<v Speaker 4>Oh wow, man, this is this is a crazy experience.

0:12:28.760 --> 0:12:30.680
<v Speaker 3>And then when you take your head off, then your

0:12:30.720 --> 0:12:33.439
<v Speaker 3>microphone is a different one, you get a handheld and

0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:36.040
<v Speaker 3>your earbuds are gone, and so now it all sounds

0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.880
<v Speaker 3>completely different again. So it's like, oh wow, every step

0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:41.280
<v Speaker 3>along the way is just something that you've never done

0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Speaker 3>before unless you're a singer. That is so hats off

0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:46.280
<v Speaker 3>to it to anybody who actually really kind of takes

0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:47.480
<v Speaker 3>it on and gives it a crack.

0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:48.400
<v Speaker 2>I reckon, I land up.

0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm surprised that you weren't on the UK version,

0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:54.000
<v Speaker 1>if I'm honest. So maybe we haven't really put the

0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:57.280
<v Speaker 1>mask singer to bed for you just yet. I think

0:12:57.320 --> 0:13:00.360
<v Speaker 1>that there's another audience that would love to be seing

0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:01.360
<v Speaker 1>you on that show.

0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:04.600
<v Speaker 3>Well, I mean I think, yeah, you know, maybe i'd

0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:06.880
<v Speaker 3>have to change my voice so I didn't sound like

0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:07.640
<v Speaker 3>James Blunt.

0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Anyone ever guesses James Blunt in the future, They're like, no, wait, no, no, no,

0:13:13.160 --> 0:13:18.040
<v Speaker 1>it's right, no, right, Well, this has been a project

0:13:18.080 --> 0:13:20.160
<v Speaker 1>you've had to keep secret, which would be very hard.

0:13:20.200 --> 0:13:21.760
<v Speaker 2>But can we ask, you know, what are you thinking

0:13:21.760 --> 0:13:22.439
<v Speaker 2>of doing next?

0:13:22.480 --> 0:13:25.200
<v Speaker 1>Because there's just been so many people talking about what's

0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:27.679
<v Speaker 1>going to happen with our favorite actors on Neighbors.

0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:31.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm just actually really going to enjoy auditioning because just

0:13:31.880 --> 0:13:34.720
<v Speaker 3>to get kind of different scripts and different writers through

0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:38.480
<v Speaker 3>your hands, and you know, different styles again. So I'm

0:13:38.480 --> 0:13:40.719
<v Speaker 3>really looking forward to auditioning and just seeing it kind

0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:43.920
<v Speaker 3>of what pops up, you know, where the adventure takes me.

0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:48.120
<v Speaker 3>So there's that, and I'm not kind of even attached

0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:48.840
<v Speaker 3>to whether or not is.

0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:52.960
<v Speaker 4>Even here or in the UK or wherever. Who knows.

0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:55.840
<v Speaker 3>Well, you know, just you know, pop over and do

0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:58.120
<v Speaker 3>a project, you know, pop back whatever. And then also

0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:01.200
<v Speaker 3>at the same time, we're building a new house and

0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:03.400
<v Speaker 3>a new farm, and we're going to be knocking everything

0:14:03.400 --> 0:14:06.199
<v Speaker 3>down and rebuilding. So I'm going off to do a

0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:08.600
<v Speaker 3>civil construction course where you know, I get to play

0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:10.599
<v Speaker 3>with excavators and rollers.

0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:11.800
<v Speaker 4>And diggers of all sorts.

0:14:11.880 --> 0:14:14.960
<v Speaker 3>And yeah, then I can kind of use those skills

0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:17.839
<v Speaker 3>while while I'm building the house and kind of doing

0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:19.320
<v Speaker 3>all that. And then you know, have a bit of

0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:21.400
<v Speaker 3>a part time job, you know, driving an excavator. I

0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:22.640
<v Speaker 3>think I think that's going to be a bit of.

0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:23.880
<v Speaker 2>Fun, something a little bit different.

0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Well, when we think of Bussie soap star's sort of

0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:28.440
<v Speaker 1>careers taking off, people like the Hemsworths and that kind

0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:31.000
<v Speaker 1>of level of success for shits and giggles, who would

0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:33.280
<v Speaker 1>be your Marvel character of choice? Is there any chance

0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:35.840
<v Speaker 1>that we could see a trajectory of Toty to iron

0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:36.800
<v Speaker 1>Man all time?

0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:38.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well, he's got lots of cool toys and you

0:14:39.000 --> 0:14:41.400
<v Speaker 3>know that's kind of what I'm doing, So yeah, we'll

0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:42.040
<v Speaker 3>go with iron Man.

0:14:42.080 --> 0:14:44.760
<v Speaker 1>Why not what Everyone who joins the podcast gets this

0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:47.400
<v Speaker 1>last question, what's something from behind the scenes, something that

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.880
<v Speaker 1>we didn't see that we won't see from behind the scenes,

0:14:49.920 --> 0:14:52.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of like a deleted scenes from your experience of

0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:53.000
<v Speaker 1>being on the Marst Singer.

0:14:53.400 --> 0:14:56.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, there was this one, like we had to

0:14:57.320 --> 0:14:59.480
<v Speaker 3>when we're doing stuff for the audience, like when the

0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:01.560
<v Speaker 3>audience was kind of choosing and they kind of did

0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:04.360
<v Speaker 3>the whip around to all the characters for the audience.

0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:08.080
<v Speaker 3>They I don't know, they had actually made me climb

0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:10.440
<v Speaker 3>up this flight of stairs at the back of the

0:15:10.480 --> 0:15:15.960
<v Speaker 3>auditorium which was incredibly hot, and then and then basically

0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:18.040
<v Speaker 3>they set my head on fire. There was, you know,

0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:20.360
<v Speaker 3>a heap of smoke pouring out of my head and

0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:21.200
<v Speaker 3>all that kind of stuff.

0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:22.440
<v Speaker 4>And when I watched it last night, it.

0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:25.200
<v Speaker 3>Was like, oh, well that's not in it, so yeah,

0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:27.000
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, that's that's a bit of a deleted

0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:30.120
<v Speaker 3>scene for you where the night is on fire.

0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:33.320
<v Speaker 1>Australia would never forgive the producers of The Mark Singer

0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:35.400
