1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:01,960
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning.

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 2: M he's a rug. He's here, he's here, the champers here.

3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,880
Speaker 3: Lace up your sneakers, fasten your backpack. Amazing.

4
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 2: Race is back.

5
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 1: Now.

6
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 3: When you think of traveling the world, I think of

7
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 3: going on the q E two, I don't think of

8
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 3: the huge anxiety that these teams get put through. The

9
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 3: host of that show, Blow Ryan kicks off tonight just now.

10
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: Hello By, I think, thanks, firstly, apologies for being late.

11
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 1: That's who would have thought Sydney traffic was disgusting.

12
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 2: You know, because there's so many different sectors of traffic.

13
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 2: I've got my son. He works in Erskineville or Waterloo

14
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 2: rather so he goes, but he goes in the Mario

15
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 2: Kart hour. That's between six and seven, but we're usually

16
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: about six thirty. Everyone's on a mission. Even the cops

17
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 2: don't pull you up at that time.

18
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: Anything after six is disgusting.

19
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 2: And then it's seven and.

20
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 1: Five point thirty there's a window. Five thirty to six

21
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: is all right, but before five five thirty it's okay.

22
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 3: How much traffic is on the road very early in

23
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 3: the morning, as you used to say, Brendan, when you

24
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 3: first started this job. The people move houses, they'd be

25
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 3: giant earth moving equipment.

26
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 2: Drive by shooters, a greenacre and that's all you get.

27
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you said that.

28
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 3: Now a lot of stuff everyone's up and early.

29
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've said loud and clear that Sydney is the

30
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 1: worst traffic in the world. Sydney in La La is

31
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: discussed because no one gets public transport until I got

32
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: to Mongolia. Mongolia, I mean they built the city. There's

33
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,759
Speaker 1: about three or four million people in it, and they

34
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 1: just designed it with about six roads going in. I

35
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: don't think they tried to bring people out. They just

36
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: want to keep everyone in there. So when we were

37
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: filming the race, we had to shoot a lot of

38
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: stuff around the city. And I'm talking like getting two

39
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: kilometers would take three hours.

40
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 2: Oh, how frustrated.

41
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: It was too far to walk, you know, two kilometers

42
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: with equipment like the camera stuff, it's too far to walk.

43
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: But then halfway through we'd get out and we'd walk

44
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: and it was just it was a nightmare. And Mongolia

45
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: sorted out a lot of the teams. So people say

46
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: to me, I'd love to do the race on fit

47
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: and health. That's got nothing to do with it when

48
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: you jump in the wrong car and.

49
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 2: They can't take a smartphone.

50
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: Can't take a smartphone, you've got some of the cabs. See,

51
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: cabs are a problem. Cabs and taxis are a problem

52
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,119
Speaker 1: because you don't know what you're going to get. Sometimes

53
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: episode one Tonight Soul, straight off the bat, you pick

54
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: up your bag, run straight to a taxi. We have

55
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: eleven teams. You might get eight taxis and then none

56
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: for an hour, so you don't know, and then you

57
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: might pull one over and not be able to talk.

58
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,119
Speaker 1: One of our teams was super lucky there. Vietnamese siblings

59
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: are really really really lovely family from Melbourne, but super short,

60
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,360
Speaker 1: and I thought they'd be in trouble physically, but they

61
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: could speak a couple of languages. So they're in Vietnam

62
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 1: jetting around town and they smoke made up a lot

63
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:41,399
Speaker 1: of ground there.

64
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,519
Speaker 3: But can I ask you about the nuns. I laughed

65
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,119
Speaker 3: at the ad where they said we've got that. We want,

66
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 3: you know, to get the big guy on side because

67
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 3: if he's not busy enough, he's going to help them

68
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 3: win the amazing race. How do they cope in some

69
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 3: of those countries, because you know it'd be tough.

70
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: Same thing. I judged on their physical presence and I

71
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 1: was very very wrong. I mean, we've got the athletic

72
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: footy team, we've got the bloggers, the Instagram influencers. Yeah, okay,

73
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 1: they're all young and fit, but patience is key. And

74
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: the judy and to rease the two nuns, Yeah, they've

75
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: got the God on their side, but so to roller

76
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: in the money. The Muslim mother and daughter from Western Sydney.

77
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: But they're patient and patience is key. I still think that.

78
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,679
Speaker 1: I stand by that. I think patience, you need patience

79
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: and obviously problem solving. But you can be the fittest guy,

80
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: the fastest guy. But if you've got to make fifty

81
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: dumplings like they do tonight, some teams eat that up.

82
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: So you've got someone representing Muslim Christian, no one from

83
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 2: the Hindi or the Ah.

84
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: Well, I don't want to say I'm not too sure

85
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: we've got every I mean we've got the great thing.

86
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: As you guys know, we're out here in Western Sydney

87
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: and our Western Sydney and Sydney. I love Western Sydney.

88
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 1: My family are from here, are played out here and

89
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: it's so diverse We've got a couple of teams out here.

90
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: We've got our nurses, our male nurses, male nurses straight

91
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: away Africa guys Nick and Fermi and we end up

92
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: going to Africa. They speak on behalf of a lot

93
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: of people. They're representing a lot of people. We've got

94
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: our Vietnamese family, We've got obviously rolling, our Maami, our

95
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: Muslim mother and daughter who are out here as well.

96
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: So there are a lot of people representing more than

97
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: their families. They're representing people. They're representing, you know, whether

98
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: it's women or representing single mums or single dads or

99
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: we have a lady Adrian from from Adelaide who was

100
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: the first woman firefighter and she's tough as nails. Her

101
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: husband was probably her Achilles heel.

102
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: To be honest, how do you think Amanda and I

103
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 2: would go on the show about to do it?

104
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 3: We'd fight before we got to the airport.

105
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, comes out of the brains of the operation so well.

106
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 2: I think I'd be taking.

107
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: Well because women are always right. I think you'd go

108
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: all right. Men, but you'd be s You're you're well

109
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: traveled and you can move around.

110
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 2: Haven't been to Mongolia? A man has been in and

111
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 2: out of one.

112
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 3: I just went to out of Mongol years and years ago.

113
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 3: But something starts with a be yeah.

114
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

115
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 3: And we stayed in a hotel that they told us

116
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 3: was brand new. This one's with beyond two thousand. It

117
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 3: already had stains in the toilet. Yeah, and there were

118
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 3: it was so cold, there were ice puddles on my

119
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 3: concrete floor.

120
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: I think I stayed in that. It's still got the stains.

121
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 3: Just so you know.

122
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 2: They weren't well I thought they were.

123
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: I thought they were.

124
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 2: The amazing Race Australia starts tonight seven thirty on ten

125
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 2: bo Ryant.

126
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 1: Thanks for having me. Yeah, I just want to say

127
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 1: it everyone. I'm super proud of the show. I mean,

128
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: we work in TV and reality TV is a bit

129
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: it's hard to explain at the moment. It ain't reality

130
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,919
Speaker 1: in my opinion, some of the stuff that happens. But

131
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: this is a reality TV show where the producers do

132
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 1: a good job by taking a backwards, backstep, backward seat.

133
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 1: They really they don't have to prompt anyone. What you

134
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: see is what you get. It's a wholesome show.

135
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 3: And let's hope we don't see those nuns. I'm married

136
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 3: at first sight.

137
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, well no comment.

Speaker 1: Yeah I can get to Mongoli. I can't get to
