1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,080 Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda. 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 2: Gam Nation our next guest as the chief instructor on 3 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 2: SAS Australia, where a bunch of Australian celebrities eat dirt 4 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,560 Speaker 2: and do a thousand push ups until they vomit or 5 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 2: is that mastershif Well, now he's back with. 6 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,280 Speaker 3: A new show. It's called Million Dollar Island, where alliances 7 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 3: mean everything and friendships are worth a fortune and Middleton 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:22,919 Speaker 3: Hello here. 9 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,599 Speaker 1: He is a guys. Good to hear from you again. 10 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, great, talk to you. 11 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 3: Nice to talk to you. So tell us about Million 12 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 3: Dollar Island million dollars. I think this is the biggest 13 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 3: prize money for an Australian show. Is that right? 14 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: Yeah? Do you know what it is? There's a million 15 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 1: dollars at stake on the island. There's one hundred normal 16 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: day ausies. It is brutal, it's savage. You see the 17 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: best of humanity. But you're also, unfortunately unfortunately is very entertaining. 18 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: You see the work of humanity because ultimately there's a 19 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: million dollars on that island that the bracelets have to 20 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 1: stay on the island as the people go. So obviously 21 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: the closer you get to the end, the more I 22 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: would say, the more vindictiveness comes out, the more manipulation 23 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: comes out. And it's very interesting to watch. But it's 24 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: a fascinating show and you know, and I love posting it. 25 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 4: It's a modern day version of Lord of the Flies. 26 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: It's exactly that. It's you know, it's a cross between 27 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,119 Speaker 1: you know, you name it, like Hunger Games last year. 28 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: It's just you have to survive on an island for 29 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: one month. That's hard enough in itself, especially where we 30 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 1: were in Malaysia. You know, you've got creepy Crawley's, you've 31 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: got vendomous snake, you've got wild boar, and on top 32 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: of that, you have to bat out to obviously get 33 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: to the end to hopefully play for a shell of 34 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: the million dollar prize. So it comes with absolutely everything. 35 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 3: How do you wrangle one hundred people? How's a TV 36 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 3: production and cameras and you wrangle one hundred people on 37 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 3: an island? 38 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: You know what it was? It was hard work. Yeah, 39 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: Time and effort went in from not only the contestant, 40 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: the crew, myself, you know, behind the scenes staff, but 41 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: they managed it really really well. To be fair, it 42 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: all came together really nicely, and it's one of those 43 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: shows where you just sort of have to go with it. 44 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: You know, it is what it is. You know, we 45 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: don't know how they're going to act, we don't know 46 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: how it's going to play out. We really just have 47 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: to roll with it. And the producers are great, are 48 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: just letting us, let letting letting the show flow and 49 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,119 Speaker 1: also letting the letting me host it to the best 50 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: of my ability. So crudof to to the to the 51 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: production into the contestant. It was it was manic, but 52 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: it that way. 53 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 4: It was manic And will you be bringing a bit 54 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 4: of the sas at Middleton to million Dollar Ireland? 55 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: That fact? You know what, this is more of the 56 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: mental inside of me, more the real ambulancing show we say. 57 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: You know I was I was there to host the show. 58 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: I was there to sort of mentor them through and 59 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: help them out where I could have without obviously giving 60 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 1: anything away, because the challenges were brutal within themselves. You know, 61 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: they're a lot of physical, psychological and emotional challenges along 62 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,119 Speaker 1: the way. Every couple of days, that's when people left 63 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: the islands and the bracelets had to stay on the island. 64 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 1: And the more people, you know, the more people that 65 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: had more bracelets, they became a bigger target, so they 66 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: were they were targeted, but then they had to stick 67 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: together to form alliances to get through the month experience. 68 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: So it had absolutely everything. By the end of it, 69 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,519 Speaker 1: I was absolutely drained and exhausted, let alone. What the 70 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: contestants also felt like, Well. 71 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 4: It's good you don't have to keep yelling at people 72 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 4: as well.
