WEBVTT - UNPACKED REALITY - AUSTRALIAN SURVIVOR - ELIMINATION CHAT

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:01.760
<v Speaker 1>It's in the news today, but it was actually on

0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:05.400
<v Speaker 1>TV Reload, the podcast Past Weep That Life. Hey guys,

0:00:05.440 --> 0:00:08.360
<v Speaker 1>welcome back to TV Reload. Thank you for clicking and downloading.

0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:11.880
<v Speaker 1>On today's episode with Garrek, the eighth eliminated contestant from

0:00:11.960 --> 0:00:15.560
<v Speaker 1>this year's Australian Survivor on Network ten, I will be

0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:18.279
<v Speaker 1>talking about his time in Samoa and of course what

0:00:18.400 --> 0:00:20.919
<v Speaker 1>he thinks now that the smoke has well and truly

0:00:21.000 --> 0:00:24.880
<v Speaker 1>been snuffed out on his torch. Australian Survivor Titans Versus

0:00:24.920 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>Rebels is a showdown that pits the winners against the

0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:30.440
<v Speaker 1>underdogs and the big wigs against the battlers, with each

0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:34.159
<v Speaker 1>player competing for the grand prize of half a million dollars.

0:00:34.560 --> 0:00:38.239
<v Speaker 1>Garreck is a loss prevention officer from Queensland. Initially a

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:41.840
<v Speaker 1>loyal member of Ferris and Kirby's majority alliance. However, as

0:00:41.840 --> 0:00:44.559
<v Speaker 1>we know, that went to shit after he felt portrayed

0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:47.760
<v Speaker 1>by Kirby's duplicity in the First Tribal Council, which was

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:50.760
<v Speaker 1>where Garrick and Ferris developed their stronger version to Kirby's

0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:53.800
<v Speaker 1>position in the Rebels tribe. After the tribal switch, it

0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:57.440
<v Speaker 1>was obvious to everyone involved that the fractured Rebels team

0:00:57.480 --> 0:01:00.600
<v Speaker 1>had turned on themselves, with Garrek becoming the most vocal

0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:03.840
<v Speaker 1>in getting rid of Kirby as soon as possible. Ultimately,

0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Kirby saw the writing on the wall first and won

0:01:06.520 --> 0:01:09.959
<v Speaker 1>out by swaying the Rebels block and successfully knocked Garrek

0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:13.080
<v Speaker 1>out of the competition. Garrek will discuss who is to

0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:16.199
<v Speaker 1>blame for his elimination and explain who are the dirty

0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 1>dogs that he holds responsible. We will talk about Garreck's

0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:23.160
<v Speaker 1>position and get some understanding if the rules of tracking

0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:26.280
<v Speaker 1>a petty thief works in the Game of Australian Survivor.

0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:28.639
<v Speaker 1>I will get to the bottom of the growing battle

0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:31.440
<v Speaker 1>of the Beast with Garrek's perspective on Kirby and Ferris

0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:34.120
<v Speaker 1>and why both of them are fighting for that top

0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:37.080
<v Speaker 1>dog position. Plus, we will find out if he's been

0:01:37.120 --> 0:01:39.640
<v Speaker 1>able to let things go Obviously we saw him quite

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:41.960
<v Speaker 1>cross at the end of that episode, but we'll also

0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:44.679
<v Speaker 1>find out if it ever hath worked with Kirby again.

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:47.600
<v Speaker 1>There's actually so much to unpack with Garrek, and I

0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:49.800
<v Speaker 1>have to be honest and say this is a surprise

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:52.080
<v Speaker 1>to me, but I've enjoyed chatting to Grek more than

0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:54.600
<v Speaker 1>anyone else this season so far. So sit back and

0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 1>relax as we dive just that little bit deeper into

0:01:57.200 --> 0:02:00.880
<v Speaker 1>the world of Australian Survivor. I just want to start

0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:03.440
<v Speaker 1>off this podcast by saying that I had a dream

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:06.760
<v Speaker 1>when you first turned up as a preview to be

0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:10.120
<v Speaker 1>on the series, that you arrested me for something. And

0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I was like, that's when you know a Survivor player

0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:16.399
<v Speaker 1>has penetrated the psyche when you're dreaming about them.

0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:18.720
<v Speaker 2>I'd love to know what you were stealing. I want

0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:21.120
<v Speaker 2>to do anything wrong while I'm around.

0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:23.760
<v Speaker 1>Well we know that now. PS don't start a podcast

0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:26.280
<v Speaker 1>by telling your guests that you've been dreaming about them.

0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:29.359
<v Speaker 2>Now, I take that on board. That's not bad.

0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:31.120
<v Speaker 1>How are you anyway? Are you a right?

0:02:31.360 --> 0:02:33.960
<v Speaker 3>Look, it's just a bugger, But I'm all good. Like

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:36.919
<v Speaker 3>the anxiety has started to subside.

0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:41.280
<v Speaker 2>I've stopped screaming why me? I'm good now? Yeah, I'm good.

0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:43.639
<v Speaker 1>But what are your neighbors thinking of you? Watching Survivor

0:02:43.639 --> 0:02:45.840
<v Speaker 1>three nights a week? Are they okay? Have they they

0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 1>moved house?

0:02:47.000 --> 0:02:47.639
<v Speaker 2>They've moved.

0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:49.760
<v Speaker 3>I noticed a couple of them walk past and look

0:02:49.840 --> 0:02:51.760
<v Speaker 3>up in the window during the evening.

0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Crying and screaming and laughing. I mean, this is this

0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:57.160
<v Speaker 1>is a general reaction to anyone being on reality TV.

0:02:57.360 --> 0:02:58.680
<v Speaker 2>Right, Yeah, for sure?

0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:01.760
<v Speaker 1>What a right? I mean the last thirty minutes of

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>your time in Survivor, I was sweating watching it, and

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:07.080
<v Speaker 1>I've watched episode twice and I had the same reaction

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:07.880
<v Speaker 1>knowing the result.

0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:10.280
<v Speaker 3>I guarantee you weren't sweating as much as I was.

0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:12.240
<v Speaker 3>And I didn't know the outcome either, so I was

0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:14.639
<v Speaker 3>as blind as you. I knew I was going home,

0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:17.320
<v Speaker 3>but I didn't know the where's in the house and

0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 3>who's and how it all eventuated.

0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 1>Have you watched the Extended Tribal Council, by the way,

0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:24.360
<v Speaker 1>because I don't normally watch that, but I watched that

0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:28.040
<v Speaker 1>this morning where you get to see everyone's rationale, like

0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:29.960
<v Speaker 1>when they hand out. Have you watched that yet?

0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:30.760
<v Speaker 2>I haven't, Man.

0:03:30.840 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 3>I just I got up last night and I just went,

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:36.720
<v Speaker 3>you know what, I'm going to bed, I'm turning my

0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:38.800
<v Speaker 3>phone off and I'm going to get up late.

0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:41.280
<v Speaker 2>So I haven't done anything. Today will be the day.

0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:43.560
<v Speaker 1>Who are the most angry at? At this point? You

0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:45.960
<v Speaker 1>mentioned the dogs at the end of the episode. Instead

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:48.600
<v Speaker 1>of the Dogs being the sanction of that blindside, which

0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm assuming is from those original Titans from at least Winner,

0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Charles Valaria, Kelly and Scott right.

0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:59.440
<v Speaker 2>The Dirty Dogs was really Winner and Scottie, I mean.

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Scott when he votes for you, he says, I love you, man,

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:05.880
<v Speaker 1>and I just had to do this because you were

0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Ferris's right hand man. I mean, he looks like a

0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:11.080
<v Speaker 1>very genuine man. I have never never met him myself,

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:13.960
<v Speaker 1>but I got the impression that he's a very genuine person.

0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:16.800
<v Speaker 1>And he did look like it pained him to make

0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:19.279
<v Speaker 1>that decision. It seemed like he was forced into it.

0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 3>It's crazy because Scotty and I from the very word

0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:25.680
<v Speaker 3>go were bed buddies. We slept beside each other every night,

0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:30.320
<v Speaker 3>whispered this sweet nothings. We had such a beautiful relationship

0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:34.240
<v Speaker 3>every night, and we were aligned. We had myself, Eileen

0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:38.040
<v Speaker 3>and Scotty had a very secret alliance. I did bring

0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:41.720
<v Speaker 3>Ferris in at one stage there. Ferris had a difficulty

0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:45.320
<v Speaker 3>trusting Aileen, whereas I said to you know, she's good,

0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:49.760
<v Speaker 3>and then Aileen had a difficulty in the end trusting Scotty.

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:52.160
<v Speaker 3>And she's the one who informed me what was going on,

0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 3>and whereas Scotty was telling me completely the opposite. So

0:04:55.800 --> 0:04:57.840
<v Speaker 3>I really loved Scotty. I still do in the end

0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:00.840
<v Speaker 3>of the day. It's a game, and I don't any grudges.

0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:05.280
<v Speaker 3>I have no regrets whatsoever. But him and Winner were

0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:07.880
<v Speaker 3>telling me what I wanted to hear, and that's why

0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 3>they were the dirty dogs.

0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it is the game of Survivor, and I

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.080
<v Speaker 1>mean these players are all just playing exactly what I

0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.560
<v Speaker 1>guess the game of Survivor is, and it is to lie,

0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:18.240
<v Speaker 1>cheat and steal. And you protested that going into the show,

0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:20.080
<v Speaker 1>so I mean, you know what you sign up for.

0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:23.760
<v Speaker 3>I lied and cheated as well. But the certain things

0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:26.920
<v Speaker 3>that I don't get. When you are aligned with somebody

0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:29.200
<v Speaker 3>and you say, okay, this is what we're going to do,

0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:32.400
<v Speaker 3>I'm more of the line and cheek to the ones

0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:35.840
<v Speaker 3>that you're not aligned with, get information from them, give

0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:38.839
<v Speaker 3>them information that can help you and not hindrance to

0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 3>you gain.

0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:42.880
<v Speaker 2>But when you're aligned with somebody and they're the ones giving,

0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:44.080
<v Speaker 2>that doesn't make sense.

0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:46.600
<v Speaker 3>I would never have done that with Ferris Faris, would

0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:49.240
<v Speaker 3>never have done that with me in the very beginning,

0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:52.000
<v Speaker 3>Kirby and I were tight as we were so tight.

0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:55.120
<v Speaker 3>I hadn't even spoken really to Ferris at that stage,

0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:57.600
<v Speaker 3>and Kirby and I spoke, we're going to go through

0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:00.840
<v Speaker 3>this together. And then when she did the flip on

0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:04.320
<v Speaker 3>the challenge, Well, that doesn't make sense. If we're aligned,

0:06:04.720 --> 0:06:07.159
<v Speaker 3>why not just tell me even if I don't go

0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.400
<v Speaker 3>with that plan, or even if I'm not one hundred

0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 3>percent with that.

0:06:10.200 --> 0:06:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Plan, at least informally, that that's what reliance means.

0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:15.680
<v Speaker 1>But is there any more perspective being thrown on that

0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:18.160
<v Speaker 1>once watching the show? Have you been able to rationalize

0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:20.880
<v Speaker 1>what she did in any other capacity now that you've

0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:22.000
<v Speaker 1>seen the full.

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:24.440
<v Speaker 2>With the throw of the challenge, that first.

0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:26.440
<v Speaker 1>Week throw of the challenge? Yep, which is what I

0:06:26.480 --> 0:06:28.919
<v Speaker 1>guess is the root of the issue with both of you.

0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Now that you've watched it as a show. How does

0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:33.760
<v Speaker 1>it make you feel? Has has it changed the way

0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:34.960
<v Speaker 1>you felt about it at the time?

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:39.920
<v Speaker 3>No, no, no, I just don't get it.

0:06:40.040 --> 0:06:41.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to get into that in a little bit

0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:43.159
<v Speaker 1>because I'm kind of getting a little bit ahead of myself,

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:45.200
<v Speaker 1>because I really do want to ask you, you know,

0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:47.920
<v Speaker 1>off the back of just working out who those dogs

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:50.200
<v Speaker 1>were in your mind. I did really want to find

0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:53.520
<v Speaker 1>out what you feel about Ferris, because he should have

0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.840
<v Speaker 1>played the idol. And I'm assuming that when you turned

0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.000
<v Speaker 1>to him and it was very clearly said that you said,

0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:00.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm going home to Ferris. Was that your plea for

0:07:00.720 --> 0:07:01.280
<v Speaker 1>his idol?

0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:02.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:07:02.120 --> 0:07:04.080
<v Speaker 1>And why didn't he do that? I mean, why didn't

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.400
<v Speaker 1>he give that to you? Aileen's there saying to do it.

0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Maybe I'll never know. I don't know what.

0:07:09.560 --> 0:07:12.840
<v Speaker 1>And I'm sort of propressoring you into a conversation about

0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:15.800
<v Speaker 1>this because I wonder whether now there is a perspective

0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:19.640
<v Speaker 1>over whether Ferris and Kirby are both just playing a

0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:22.120
<v Speaker 1>very hard game and they've both done the wrong thing

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:22.880
<v Speaker 1>by you.

0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:24.080
<v Speaker 2>What a horrible thought.

0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:26.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't have ruined any friendships, mate.

0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:30.880
<v Speaker 3>Look, I honestly don't know. When we were in camp

0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:34.600
<v Speaker 3>before before we walked out to the tribal, I knew it.

0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:37.760
<v Speaker 3>I had already worked out in my head that we

0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:41.559
<v Speaker 3>didn't have the numbers. Ferris was convinced in his head

0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:45.440
<v Speaker 3>the original Titans were with him. Whilst Ferris and Raymond

0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:48.320
<v Speaker 3>were playing their frivolities in the water, yelling and screaming.

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:50.240
<v Speaker 3>I was laying in the hammock watching and I knew it.

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.520
<v Speaker 3>I seen the tells, I heard the little whispers. I

0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:56.280
<v Speaker 3>even caught it just a moment trick out of one

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:56.800
<v Speaker 3>of their mouths.

0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:57.280
<v Speaker 2>So I knew.

0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:59.120
<v Speaker 3>And at that stage, I said to Feris, mate, we

0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:01.360
<v Speaker 3>don't have the numbers. I guarantee you we don't have

0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 3>the numbers. And I even said to him, I don't

0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:06.960
<v Speaker 3>believe Kelly has an idol. And if she doesn't pull

0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:09.000
<v Speaker 3>it out, play your ider for me, because I know

0:08:09.080 --> 0:08:12.280
<v Speaker 3>I'm going home. And Ferris was convinced, No, no, no, man,

0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:15.640
<v Speaker 3>you're paranoid. He says something about paranoia right in that tribal.

0:08:15.800 --> 0:08:16.280
<v Speaker 1>He does.

0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:17.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:19.240
<v Speaker 3>He kept saying to me, you're paranoid, mate, You're sweet.

0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:21.680
<v Speaker 3>We've got the numbers. And I kept saying to him, man,

0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.600
<v Speaker 3>this is what I do. I see all this stuff,

0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:27.000
<v Speaker 3>and I know we don't have the numbers. We walked

0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:31.040
<v Speaker 3>out towards tribal with me questioning it because of what

0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:34.240
<v Speaker 3>Ferris had said. The moment we sat down, the moment

0:08:34.320 --> 0:08:37.920
<v Speaker 3>JLP asked one or two questions and I looked left

0:08:37.960 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 3>and right and see, I just knew I've seen it,

0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:43.520
<v Speaker 3>and from there I leaned forward first to Eileen and

0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:46.760
<v Speaker 3>said I'm gone here, and then Eileen first mentioned to

0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:48.400
<v Speaker 3>Ferris played the arder for Garrett.

0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:52.600
<v Speaker 2>I'd already told Ferris and Eileen that this point he

0:08:52.679 --> 0:08:54.360
<v Speaker 2>needs to play for me.

0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:57.680
<v Speaker 3>Then Kirby's going home, and would we would have accomplished

0:08:57.679 --> 0:08:58.480
<v Speaker 3>our goal anyway.

0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it really does bring us to your backstory,

0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:04.600
<v Speaker 1>because I mean, if you read the comments on social media,

0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:06.480
<v Speaker 1>which they always say, don't do it, and to be fair,

0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:08.480
<v Speaker 1>don Garret, don't do it, don't do it. But like

0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:11.640
<v Speaker 1>if you're reading the comments, people were really they really

0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:14.120
<v Speaker 1>did feel like you lived up to your backstory. And

0:09:14.160 --> 0:09:16.520
<v Speaker 1>the backstory I think was so compelling with what it

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:18.640
<v Speaker 1>is that you do for a job and your ability

0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:21.080
<v Speaker 1>to smell a rat and your ability to pick out

0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:24.880
<v Speaker 1>those nuances. People, even people that weren't your biggest fan,

0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:28.000
<v Speaker 1>did give you that. They commended you for that. So

0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:31.840
<v Speaker 1>your instincts were great. But that begs me to ask

0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:35.160
<v Speaker 1>you the question as to why you decided to be

0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:37.920
<v Speaker 1>a right hand man for someone like Ferris when you

0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:39.240
<v Speaker 1>could have been a king yourself.

0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:42.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, look, I think I don't actually think that I

0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.120
<v Speaker 3>was a right hand man to Ferris.

0:09:45.160 --> 0:09:48.280
<v Speaker 2>I know it looks that way, do I say on

0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:50.720
<v Speaker 2>the edit or on the show. But I had my

0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:51.520
<v Speaker 2>own ideas.

0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:57.120
<v Speaker 3>My idea of eliminating Rihanna to break up Kirby. That's

0:09:57.120 --> 0:10:01.040
<v Speaker 3>not a second lieutenant decision, that's the cap core. So

0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:05.080
<v Speaker 3>I had things like that, And yes, I looked more

0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:09.200
<v Speaker 3>upon myself as Ferris and I's equals. Ferris was way

0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:12.600
<v Speaker 3>more loud, way more outspoken, way more flamboyant, with all

0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:15.079
<v Speaker 3>of that kind of thing. I'm not that in character,

0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:18.440
<v Speaker 3>but in mind, I am as tough as nails and

0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 3>as strong as as any major.

0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:22.840
<v Speaker 2>So I thought to myself, I'm going.

0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:25.680
<v Speaker 3>To play this game, the one who's behind the scenes

0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:26.880
<v Speaker 3>but still calling shots.

0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:29.720
<v Speaker 1>But I guess that the thing that I worry about

0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:31.920
<v Speaker 1>and what I think now in hindsight, I'm in hindsight.

0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:33.839
<v Speaker 1>It's a great thing, especially for a podcast, and we

0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:35.480
<v Speaker 1>going to talk about this, and I get to sound

0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:37.280
<v Speaker 1>like I know what I'm talking about, but I wasn't there,

0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:39.880
<v Speaker 1>So who the hell am I? But as a king,

0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:43.319
<v Speaker 1>you would just steal the you would take the general's idol.

0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>I just felt like you could have demanded that at

0:10:45.600 --> 0:10:48.120
<v Speaker 1>that point you were right by making the decision to

0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:51.520
<v Speaker 1>if that idol had been played, Kirby would have gone home. Yeah,

0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:53.760
<v Speaker 1>you know that. I think you could have demanded that

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:54.760
<v Speaker 1>from him.

0:10:55.440 --> 0:10:58.360
<v Speaker 3>There's that hindsight because now when I look at it,

0:10:58.520 --> 0:11:01.160
<v Speaker 3>and even even straight up after, when I was sitting

0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:04.160
<v Speaker 3>in the dark, going oh my god, my time's done,

0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:07.760
<v Speaker 3>even then, I just was saying in my head.

0:11:07.600 --> 0:11:10.280
<v Speaker 2>One hundred times, why didn't I just stand up.

0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:13.760
<v Speaker 3>Say to JLP, let's not go any further and then

0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:17.760
<v Speaker 3>plead my case that one bit stronger to Ferris? Because

0:11:17.760 --> 0:11:20.400
<v Speaker 3>if I did that, Ferris would have played that idle

0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:23.280
<v Speaker 3>for me. I guarantee you one hundred percent he would have.

0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:27.720
<v Speaker 3>But Ferris was so lost in that moment. He just

0:11:27.800 --> 0:11:30.320
<v Speaker 3>knew that in his head, he knew that there was

0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:32.480
<v Speaker 3>that he had all the numbers, and that it wasn't

0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:35.319
<v Speaker 3>necessary when that Eileen first thing to do it, I

0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:37.120
<v Speaker 3>can just see confusion on Ferris's face.

0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:38.360
<v Speaker 2>What do I do? What do I do? What do

0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:41.439
<v Speaker 2>I do? What, hindsight what I should have done? One

0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:42.240
<v Speaker 2>hundred percent?

0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:45.319
<v Speaker 3>He stood up and said stop, jailpe stop, stop stop.

0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:47.480
<v Speaker 3>And if I pleaded that the others they would have

0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:50.960
<v Speaker 3>had no no hole to run down, and I would

0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:53.160
<v Speaker 3>have accomplished what I what I'd set out to do.

0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:57.520
<v Speaker 3>But unfortunately, when you're in that moment, your mind is

0:11:57.640 --> 0:12:01.400
<v Speaker 3>racing so hard, and what we paramount in my mind

0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:03.520
<v Speaker 3>is I'm going home, not how I can stop this.

0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I just I want to go back to

0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:08.320
<v Speaker 1>this lost prevention officer thing, which I think is just

0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:10.960
<v Speaker 1>genius for a game of Survivor. Like I just think,

0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 1>how I don't know how you got cast on the show,

0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:16.120
<v Speaker 1>but however that happened fantastic. You know, the fact that

0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:21.280
<v Speaker 1>you'd busted doctors and corporate professionals, you know, just today.

0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:23.760
<v Speaker 1>But has Survivor blown you cover with doing your job?

0:12:24.600 --> 0:12:27.040
<v Speaker 3>It has, Yeah, it has a lot. Look in a

0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:29.880
<v Speaker 3>couple of weeks, I'll be the old last Yesterday's newspaper,

0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:30.960
<v Speaker 3>so I should be good again.

0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:32.480
<v Speaker 2>At the moment, I'm wearing.

0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:35.880
<v Speaker 1>Hey, I won a series of reality TV eleven years ago.

0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:38.240
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't pay someone to recognize me, so don't worry

0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:38.679
<v Speaker 1>about it.

0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:42.760
<v Speaker 3>That's Vego, so it's not really an issue. I'm going

0:12:42.800 --> 0:12:45.240
<v Speaker 3>to head back over to Bali after we finish this.

0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:49.280
<v Speaker 3>Take another couple of weeks. By the time I come back, We'll.

0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Ready to bust them more criminals. Like you know, you'll

0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:54.400
<v Speaker 1>be back back on the job with your superhero powers.

0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Why do people steal?

0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:55.760
<v Speaker 3>Though?

0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:57.679
<v Speaker 1>Like as in I wanted to ask you this right

0:12:57.720 --> 0:13:00.800
<v Speaker 1>from the moment we saw you. What about these people

0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:03.920
<v Speaker 1>that have high paying jobs and their desire to steal?

0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Have you thought about that?

0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:08.720
<v Speaker 3>I think it's so many variabooks because I because I

0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:12.440
<v Speaker 3>do sit down at times and when I come across

0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:16.520
<v Speaker 3>a genuinely nice person who's doing it, I sit down

0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 3>and try to fathom why.

0:13:18.720 --> 0:13:19.560
<v Speaker 1>And what they say.

0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.120
<v Speaker 3>Will some of them genuinely do it for the thrill?

0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:25.640
<v Speaker 3>They genuinely do it just for the thrill, like they

0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:28.200
<v Speaker 3>don't need to. And I'm not talking a chocolate bar.

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:31.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm talking big, big dollar stuff, you know, thousands of

0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:34.800
<v Speaker 3>dollars of goods. As so many there's some that plead

0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:37.040
<v Speaker 3>that they they clapped the main X and they can't

0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:38.600
<v Speaker 3>help it. They've been doing it for years and they've

0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:41.760
<v Speaker 3>been getting caught for years. But there's some that actually,

0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:43.240
<v Speaker 3>you know, it's like talking to you.

0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:45.160
<v Speaker 2>Why did you do that? Man? And he goes, I

0:13:45.320 --> 0:13:47.400
<v Speaker 2>just I just do it because my life's boring and

0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:48.079
<v Speaker 2>it's a thrill.

0:13:48.480 --> 0:13:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Can you assess small nuances to detect the sort of

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.400
<v Speaker 1>a person that would steal? Like I mean, when you're

0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:57.080
<v Speaker 1>inside a store and you're watching someone and someone does

0:13:57.160 --> 0:14:00.679
<v Speaker 1>present themselves as a corporate professional, you know, what are

0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:02.920
<v Speaker 1>the small things that you can pick out that means

0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:04.920
<v Speaker 1>that you can You could say, I've got to follow

0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:06.280
<v Speaker 1>that person, do you know what?

0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:09.200
<v Speaker 3>I'll ask that all the time when I train up

0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:12.880
<v Speaker 3>and coming lpo's new ones, they'll ask the same thing.

0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:16.920
<v Speaker 3>And it's a really bizarre thing. I say this a lot,

0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:22.120
<v Speaker 3>right When a good poker player has no tell, he's

0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:24.760
<v Speaker 3>a good poker player, but a better part poker player

0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:27.640
<v Speaker 3>can see the tell. And then you asked them what's

0:14:27.680 --> 0:14:29.200
<v Speaker 3>the tell? I said, I don't know. I don't know

0:14:29.240 --> 0:14:31.320
<v Speaker 3>if it's the eye that twitched, or the hand moveing

0:14:31.400 --> 0:14:32.800
<v Speaker 3>or what. And it's the same with me.

0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:36.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what makes me think that person's about

0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:38.600
<v Speaker 2>to commit a criminal act.

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:42.280
<v Speaker 3>And yet ninety nine percent of the time I go, cook,

0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 3>here's one, and sure enough I'll follow on covertly, sometimes

0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:50.640
<v Speaker 3>up to forty five fifty minutes. Bang gotcha, and I look,

0:14:50.720 --> 0:14:53.120
<v Speaker 3>I honestly can't tell you what it is. It's got

0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:56.040
<v Speaker 3>to be a subconscious thing. I've worked with guys that

0:14:56.080 --> 0:14:58.600
<v Speaker 3>I've tried to train for weeks on end weeks on

0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:01.200
<v Speaker 3>it and they never get it. Just never get it.

0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:02.440
<v Speaker 2>It's something in here.

0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:04.760
<v Speaker 1>It's a psychic ability, do you know what I mean?

0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Like I said, you know, could those talents you know

0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:10.600
<v Speaker 1>to detect, you know, a petty thief translate into self

0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:13.000
<v Speaker 1>awareness in a game like A Strand Survivor? Could you

0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:17.360
<v Speaker 1>see people presenting the sort of things in their character

0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:20.120
<v Speaker 1>that you would follow in a person in a shopping center.

0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I believe I could.

0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:24.560
<v Speaker 3>I believe I could, and I believe that a few

0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:27.840
<v Speaker 3>times that it was shown on TV when I said, hey,

0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:30.880
<v Speaker 3>this is not cool, man, I know what's going on

0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:31.920
<v Speaker 3>someone like Kelly.

0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:35.600
<v Speaker 2>You got no because I got lost. I would lose

0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:39.360
<v Speaker 2>my vision of the game when Kelly was near me, Bizzarah,

0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:40.400
<v Speaker 2>no one's ever done that to.

0:15:40.360 --> 0:15:42.960
<v Speaker 3>Me before, But just so radical thought and then all

0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:45.320
<v Speaker 3>of a sudden, I would have to go forget about Kelly.

0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:49.360
<v Speaker 1>It's a good thing to say. I actually think that's

0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:51.200
<v Speaker 1>a really good way to deal with Kelly. I think

0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:53.480
<v Speaker 1>if everyone just was forgetting about what she was doing

0:15:53.600 --> 0:15:56.000
<v Speaker 1>it might also be a safer way to play with her.

0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Such a difficult easy said than done.

0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:01.000
<v Speaker 1>It's like taking a child shopping. I don't know this

0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:02.600
<v Speaker 1>is coming up to me right now, but you know

0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:04.800
<v Speaker 1>you can only sort of keep them close to you,

0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:07.160
<v Speaker 1>but you got to stay focused on what the items

0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:08.640
<v Speaker 1>you've got to get. Do you know what I mean? Like,

0:16:09.400 --> 0:16:13.800
<v Speaker 1>I'll lose them, but don't get too distracted by their nonsense. No, Kelly,

0:16:13.840 --> 0:16:18.560
<v Speaker 1>you can't have that toy today. God, I hope she

0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:21.120
<v Speaker 1>doesn't listen to this anyway. Can you please explain, in

0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:23.160
<v Speaker 1>your words as we go back into sort of a

0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:27.280
<v Speaker 1>Ferris and Kirby conversation, what their issue is, because we

0:16:27.320 --> 0:16:29.840
<v Speaker 1>all know that first week happened and that is the

0:16:29.920 --> 0:16:32.640
<v Speaker 1>root of all their evil. But is there something deeper?

0:16:32.840 --> 0:16:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Because when I thought about talking to you today, I

0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:38.360
<v Speaker 1>thought you are the perfect person to talk about the

0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:41.320
<v Speaker 1>fraction that has to be there behind the scenes as

0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:43.920
<v Speaker 1>to why these two people are sparking and rubbing each

0:16:43.960 --> 0:16:44.640
<v Speaker 1>other the wrong way.

0:16:44.760 --> 0:16:47.120
<v Speaker 2>I think I just put it straight down to nothing

0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:51.320
<v Speaker 2>more than a couple of alphas alpha male versus alpha female,

0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:55.320
<v Speaker 2>and you just can't get that alignment when it's like that.

0:16:55.520 --> 0:16:58.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't have that alpha my mentality.

0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:02.240
<v Speaker 3>I am, in my head, yes, stronger and fitter and

0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:04.320
<v Speaker 3>smarter than you, but it's not for me.

0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:05.320
<v Speaker 2>It's not a competition.

0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:09.359
<v Speaker 3>But for Ferris and Kirby, I think that all comes

0:17:09.400 --> 0:17:12.159
<v Speaker 3>down to I'm better than you, and I'm going to

0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:13.560
<v Speaker 3>show you how I am better than you.

0:17:13.680 --> 0:17:16.080
<v Speaker 1>Is there a problem with these two people needing to

0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:18.640
<v Speaker 1>be at a higher power? I think you understand this.

0:17:18.760 --> 0:17:22.399
<v Speaker 1>You don't necessarily need to be perceived as top You

0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:24.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know how do I say this. I don't think

0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:26.560
<v Speaker 1>to rule the roost. I don't think you need to

0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:29.560
<v Speaker 1>have the title. I think you can do that. That's

0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:31.960
<v Speaker 1>behind the scenes. But these two seem to be getting

0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:34.840
<v Speaker 1>a little lost in their king and queen title and

0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:35.760
<v Speaker 1>who is top dog?

0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah percent, I've tried. I tried a heap of times

0:17:39.560 --> 0:17:41.520
<v Speaker 2>to say that. To Ferris. I said to him, I'm

0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:42.080
<v Speaker 2>going to be darker.

0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:44.640
<v Speaker 3>We should be darker, even keep our alliance a little

0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:48.160
<v Speaker 3>more darker. Ferris was one that wanted to be outspoken

0:17:48.200 --> 0:17:50.679
<v Speaker 3>and wanted to be to be the leader at the

0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:54.640
<v Speaker 3>same time, even though Kirby wasn't as vocal about that.

0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:57.119
<v Speaker 2>Yes, she just wants to be the leader. She just

0:17:57.160 --> 0:17:58.120
<v Speaker 2>wants to be the king.

0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:01.240
<v Speaker 3>And so with them both knowing that about each other,

0:18:01.600 --> 0:18:04.560
<v Speaker 3>I don't think there was any room to not butt heads.

0:18:04.800 --> 0:18:07.439
<v Speaker 2>That's how are they going to stop that? I tried.

0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:10.840
<v Speaker 3>I tried to align with Kirby after the after the

0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:14.000
<v Speaker 3>misunderstandings between us, and she made me cry.

0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:16.280
<v Speaker 1>She made you cry. You know the starter news. You

0:18:16.320 --> 0:18:18.159
<v Speaker 1>were very honest with her, You aligned with her. You

0:18:18.240 --> 0:18:19.879
<v Speaker 1>told us that at the start of this chat. You

0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:22.159
<v Speaker 1>know that you did have a relationship with her, and

0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:25.200
<v Speaker 1>she dogged you at the start. I still wonder whether

0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:28.560
<v Speaker 1>or not, and I'm sure you're wondering the same thing.

0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Could you have ever played with Kirby again? And you know,

0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:33.199
<v Speaker 1>if you were going to make it towards the end,

0:18:33.240 --> 0:18:34.560
<v Speaker 1>you were going to have to play with her.

0:18:35.040 --> 0:18:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I was.

0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:39.879
<v Speaker 1>I was because people online are saying that you have

0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:42.480
<v Speaker 1>a vendeta against her, just the same as feris. They're like,

0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:46.800
<v Speaker 1>he is furious with her and he is not letting

0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:49.400
<v Speaker 1>that go. I'm talking to you today and I get

0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:51.719
<v Speaker 1>the feeling that you have that in you to just

0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:53.520
<v Speaker 1>forgive whatever was there.

0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:57.200
<v Speaker 3>I had forgiven from the first one. And even though

0:18:57.240 --> 0:18:59.760
<v Speaker 3>I put my head in in the shelter and I

0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:02.399
<v Speaker 3>said to Kirby, you've roped me? Man, Why why? I

0:19:02.440 --> 0:19:03.680
<v Speaker 3>can you know why?

0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:04.640
<v Speaker 2>And then it.

0:19:04.600 --> 0:19:07.440
<v Speaker 3>Happened the second time, and Yeah, from there I thought,

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:10.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't think I can forgive her. I would have

0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.000
<v Speaker 3>played with her again, but it wouldn't have been the same.

0:19:14.119 --> 0:19:17.360
<v Speaker 3>It's that broken VARs blew it back together.

0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:20.880
<v Speaker 2>Always see the cracks the same. The crack would keep

0:19:20.920 --> 0:19:23.399
<v Speaker 2>on getting bigger and bigger. I am like that.

0:19:23.600 --> 0:19:25.439
<v Speaker 1>How do you feel about her now? I think is

0:19:25.440 --> 0:19:25.919
<v Speaker 1>the question.

0:19:26.600 --> 0:19:30.359
<v Speaker 3>Look, she's I know, the genuine, real Kirby when I

0:19:30.400 --> 0:19:34.480
<v Speaker 3>first met her. You can't hide who you are when

0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:37.000
<v Speaker 3>you first meet There's no reason, there's no airs or braces,

0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:39.399
<v Speaker 3>there's no reason to be someone fake. And I'm not

0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:41.760
<v Speaker 3>usually wrong. I could be wrong on this case, but

0:19:41.920 --> 0:19:44.960
<v Speaker 3>I think Kirby is a beautiful, wonderful person. Our first

0:19:45.000 --> 0:19:50.400
<v Speaker 3>connection is genuine. Then the game played, and Kirby, she's

0:19:50.400 --> 0:19:53.280
<v Speaker 3>a game player, and she's a bloody good game player.

0:19:53.640 --> 0:19:55.760
<v Speaker 3>So I don't take that away from her. What she

0:19:55.920 --> 0:19:59.840
<v Speaker 3>did with me, that's all game. So yeah, I don't

0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:03.240
<v Speaker 3>hole grudges and I absolutely have no regrets.

0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:05.760
<v Speaker 2>And when it's all said and done. I hope Kirby

0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:07.120
<v Speaker 2>and I can get together and have a beer.

0:20:07.240 --> 0:20:09.199
<v Speaker 1>I can feel that in you, you know, And I

0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:10.840
<v Speaker 1>just wonder whether or not the people that watch the

0:20:10.880 --> 0:20:13.399
<v Speaker 1>show sometimes buy into it a little bit much, because

0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:15.679
<v Speaker 1>when you're reading people saying, oh, you know, he was

0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:18.040
<v Speaker 1>so angry with her. You know, I think that we

0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:21.200
<v Speaker 1>are entitled to live our emotions. I think that's important

0:20:21.240 --> 0:20:21.880
<v Speaker 1>for sure.

0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:24.600
<v Speaker 3>And I can tell you what you want to get

0:20:24.720 --> 0:20:28.160
<v Speaker 3>into the state where you are broken. Man, you are broken.

0:20:28.240 --> 0:20:32.000
<v Speaker 3>That game is brutal. You're broken, you are hungry, you

0:20:32.040 --> 0:20:34.959
<v Speaker 3>were tired, and you were cold, and you're not going

0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:40.120
<v Speaker 3>to be nasty. Hey, think again, your emotions just going

0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:44.120
<v Speaker 3>to be wired, so wired that you speak out and

0:20:44.160 --> 0:20:47.040
<v Speaker 3>maybe you are a little bit aggressive. And I know

0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:49.359
<v Speaker 3>how I was. I watched last night and at that

0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:52.200
<v Speaker 3>particular moment, that's how I felt. I don't take it back.

0:20:52.240 --> 0:20:53.360
<v Speaker 2>I have no regrets.

0:20:53.680 --> 0:20:56.920
<v Speaker 3>Give me another go at speaking with Kirby when I've

0:20:56.920 --> 0:20:59.119
<v Speaker 3>got a full belly and had a good night's sleep

0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:02.520
<v Speaker 3>and I'm not cold and i haven't been brutalized, well,

0:21:02.600 --> 0:21:03.800
<v Speaker 3>it would be completely different.

0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:05.119
<v Speaker 2>She's a beautiful person.

0:21:05.000 --> 0:21:07.159
<v Speaker 1>He said it was really hard as well to leave home.

0:21:07.320 --> 0:21:09.960
<v Speaker 1>I remember seeing that very early in the early days

0:21:09.960 --> 0:21:12.080
<v Speaker 1>of getting to know you. You know, what was it like

0:21:12.160 --> 0:21:14.440
<v Speaker 1>to return home to see your dogs and be back

0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:17.000
<v Speaker 1>at home and be in the comforts away from survivor

0:21:17.280 --> 0:21:17.480
<v Speaker 1>was that?

0:21:17.680 --> 0:21:20.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, look all of that stuff, you know, that's that's

0:21:20.600 --> 0:21:22.680
<v Speaker 3>paramount to a beautiful life, isn't it?

0:21:22.880 --> 0:21:25.600
<v Speaker 2>Me and my wife, Yeah, that's that's what we have.

0:21:25.800 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 2>That's what we want. We're best friends, we have our dogs,

0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:30.320
<v Speaker 2>We go from walk together.

0:21:30.520 --> 0:21:32.520
<v Speaker 3>And when that's taken away from you, and I'm not

0:21:32.560 --> 0:21:35.240
<v Speaker 3>talking about taking away from you. You're overseas and you

0:21:35.240 --> 0:21:39.720
<v Speaker 3>can make a phone call, I mean zero, zero connections

0:21:40.040 --> 0:21:41.600
<v Speaker 3>from that day bank, that's it.

0:21:41.960 --> 0:21:44.959
<v Speaker 2>You don't see that person, you don't hear that person.

0:21:45.240 --> 0:21:47.920
<v Speaker 2>It's just what you can remember. And so the very

0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:49.600
<v Speaker 2>last moment is a kiss and a cuddle and a

0:21:49.600 --> 0:21:51.119
<v Speaker 2>pat of the dogs. That's what you hold on to.

0:21:51.640 --> 0:21:52.719
<v Speaker 2>It's tough.

0:21:53.080 --> 0:21:56.760
<v Speaker 3>It's tough, and I doubt it's anybody that wouldn't be

0:21:56.760 --> 0:22:00.480
<v Speaker 3>emotionally changed at missing their loved ones for that long.

0:22:00.680 --> 0:22:03.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, coming back is just exhilarating, man.

0:22:05.600 --> 0:22:10.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you crumble, I crumbled, turned to jelly could you

0:22:10.600 --> 0:22:11.440
<v Speaker 3>lay it on thick.

0:22:11.240 --> 0:22:13.840
<v Speaker 1>With your wife for a while. Oh, I'm still recovering.

0:22:13.960 --> 0:22:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Did you lay it on so that she looked after you?

0:22:16.640 --> 0:22:18.920
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely? Who wouldn't, Who wouldn't.

0:22:19.280 --> 0:22:21.080
<v Speaker 1>I have to let you go because we're running out

0:22:21.119 --> 0:22:24.520
<v Speaker 1>of time, but I'm asking everyone to finish the sentence.

0:22:24.520 --> 0:22:26.879
<v Speaker 1>In the Game of Survivor, I have this motto.

0:22:27.240 --> 0:22:29.480
<v Speaker 3>You all know what it is, and in the Game

0:22:29.520 --> 0:22:35.400
<v Speaker 3>of Survivor definitely resonates. Think young, have fun, and don't

0:22:35.440 --> 0:22:37.119
<v Speaker 3>let the old man in live forever.

0:22:37.400 --> 0:22:39.359
<v Speaker 1>And then the last thing I ask everyone, something that

0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I ask everyone who joins the podcast, is what's something

0:22:41.400 --> 0:22:43.320
<v Speaker 1>from behind the scenes, something we didn't get a chance

0:22:43.359 --> 0:22:45.200
<v Speaker 1>to see, because obviously there's a lot that goes into

0:22:45.240 --> 0:22:45.600
<v Speaker 1>a day.

0:22:45.760 --> 0:22:47.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh, the brutality.

0:22:47.359 --> 0:22:50.159
<v Speaker 3>It's tough, man, The stuff behind the scenes is tough.

0:22:50.400 --> 0:22:51.679
<v Speaker 2>I can tell you right now.

0:22:52.080 --> 0:22:56.359
<v Speaker 3>Every single person that is on that show, every producer,

0:22:56.600 --> 0:23:02.199
<v Speaker 3>every gaffer, every carrier, just for phenomenal, absolutely phenomenal, and

0:23:02.240 --> 0:23:03.560
<v Speaker 3>I love every single one of them.

0:23:03.600 --> 0:23:06.680
<v Speaker 1>This is like Golden Year's Survivor, and what a joy

0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:08.800
<v Speaker 1>it has been, and how lucky you have been to

0:23:08.840 --> 0:23:10.439
<v Speaker 1>be able to be a part of it and also

0:23:10.640 --> 0:23:12.639
<v Speaker 1>to leave such a mark on a show like this.

0:23:12.760 --> 0:23:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I think you did a very good job. People won't

0:23:15.280 --> 0:23:18.360
<v Speaker 1>forget you. I really enjoyed watching it, so yeah, thank

<v Speaker 2>It's been a pleasure.

0:23:21.960 --> 0:23:25.320

0:23:25.400 --> 0:23:27.800

<v Speaker 1>for the producers to get you to come back.
