<v Speaker 1>TV sets are a major part of our home entertainment,

0:00:17.880 --> 0:00:20.520
<v Speaker 1>and yet very little is known about how our favorite

0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:23.360
<v Speaker 1>shows get made. So each episode I've been finding guests

0:00:23.400 --> 0:00:25.560

<v Speaker 1>I love hearing your feedback, so make sure you leave

0:00:39.200 --> 0:00:42.200
<v Speaker 1>a review or a comment on your chosen podcast platform.

0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:45.159
<v Speaker 1>On today's podcast, I have Rada and Praba, the winners

0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:47.600
<v Speaker 1>of My Kitchen Rules twenty twenty three, joining me to

0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:50.560
<v Speaker 1>discuss this week's grand finale that was seen on Channel seven.

0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Raised by a single mother after their father had passed

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:57.160
<v Speaker 1>away when they're only two years old, cooking became a

0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 1>way for Rada and Prava to feel connected to their mum,

0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:04.240
<v Speaker 1>keeping their father's memory alive. Beyond their culinary powers, these

0:01:04.280 --> 0:01:08.040
<v Speaker 1>twins are deeply passionate about helping others. Praba works in

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:10.800
<v Speaker 1>cancer research and Rada is currently on the path to

0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:14.160
<v Speaker 1>becoming a lawyer. So beyond them being great cooks, they

0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:17.280
<v Speaker 1>are both super smart girls. This season of the long

0:01:17.360 --> 0:01:21.800
<v Speaker 1>running reality series saw the twins navigate their way through kitchens, dramas,

0:01:21.840 --> 0:01:25.120
<v Speaker 1>and the critics of menu Colin Fashenich and Nigela Lawson.

0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:27.920
<v Speaker 1>I will talk about their twin advantage and if they

0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:31.920
<v Speaker 1>thought their express past helped or hindered their win. Rada

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:34.679
<v Speaker 1>and Braba will also share what the tension was like

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:37.600
<v Speaker 1>between the contestants and why they had to wait till

0:01:37.640 --> 0:01:40.000
<v Speaker 1>the show went to air to find out who the

0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:42.959
<v Speaker 1>winner was. We will discuss the judges and of course

0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.479
<v Speaker 1>I'll ask which judge was their favorite. And we will

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:48.240
<v Speaker 1>also find out how the girls reacted to the win

0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:51.840
<v Speaker 1>and if they've contacted the boys who were the runners up. Plus,

0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:54.480
<v Speaker 1>we will get plenty of exclusives from behind the scenes

0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:56.800
<v Speaker 1>of MKR, which you can now catch up on on

0:01:56.880 --> 0:02:00.520
<v Speaker 1>seven plus if you want to relive that dramatic finale. Anyway,

0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:03.400
<v Speaker 1>let's bring the twins into the podcast and guys, I

0:02:03.480 --> 0:02:06.320
<v Speaker 1>really hope you enjoy this very fun chat with my

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:10.040
<v Speaker 1>new favorite celebrity twins. Hi, girls, how are you both?

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:14.280
<v Speaker 1>I love that you're both still talking in unison? Have

0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:16.639
<v Speaker 1>you been talking in unison since the win last night?

0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:20.000
<v Speaker 3>No? No, you've been babbling and screaming in unison.

0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:23.040
<v Speaker 4>Actually, it's all just different emotions just hitting up.

0:02:24.200 --> 0:02:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Well, congratulations. I think you both are very well deserving

0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:29.200
<v Speaker 1>winners and I'm very happy for you both.

0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:30.840
<v Speaker 2>Thank you so much.

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.240
<v Speaker 1>How did you celebrate? I want to know, So last

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:35.760
<v Speaker 1>night I heard that you guys didn't know who the

0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:37.480
<v Speaker 1>winner was going to be, so you had to watch

0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:40.080
<v Speaker 1>it with the rest of Australia. That must have been

0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:42.360
<v Speaker 1>very stressful leading up to watching that. But how did

0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:42.959
<v Speaker 1>you celebrate?

0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:46.560
<v Speaker 3>Oh? One, then it was so stressful because, yeah, you're

0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:49.240
<v Speaker 3>absolutely right, we had no idea who was once. I

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:52.080
<v Speaker 3>think that's just a crazy life of reality TV.

0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:54.040
<v Speaker 2>You have to watch with everybody.

0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:54.359
<v Speaker 3>In the entire nation.

0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:57.120
<v Speaker 1>People don't know that that's what happens, that they can

0:02:57.120 --> 0:03:00.399
<v Speaker 1>shoot multiple endings and you then have to to wait.

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:02.960
<v Speaker 1>That must be so hard for viewers to get their

0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 1>head around.

0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:04.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it is.

0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:08.080
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I guess the producers have a job to do,

0:03:08.240 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 3>but essentially it's just for our benefits so that the

0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:13.600
<v Speaker 3>winners aren't leaked. But we had to film two ending,

0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:17.119
<v Speaker 3>so we had just assumed from the goal that we

0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 3>had to face reality that we may have lost against

0:03:20.760 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 3>one of the best competitors in.

0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.760
<v Speaker 2>The competition, nicking Christian. So will be very honest with you.

0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:28.920
<v Speaker 3>Then we're very humble but realist people. So we had

0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:31.799
<v Speaker 3>friends dropping by throughout the day knowing it was our

0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 3>grand final day. But we had said, look, guys, we

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:38.440
<v Speaker 3>think we have lost, but we're going to just watch

0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:41.480
<v Speaker 3>it with mom, me and Pravut. But we had lots

0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:43.960
<v Speaker 3>of friends and family just dropped by say oh they're good,

0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:46.400
<v Speaker 3>luss these big hugs, and then we were like, look,

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:48.720
<v Speaker 3>I reckon, just watch it in your own home. It's

0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:50.200
<v Speaker 3>not going to be it's going to be a bit

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:51.360
<v Speaker 3>of a sad reality that.

0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:52.120
<v Speaker 2>We may have lost.

0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:57.720
<v Speaker 3>Turns out then we want so and it turns out

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.320
<v Speaker 3>our phones or just going off the hook and we're

0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:03.760
<v Speaker 3>actually organizing another little after watch party.

0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:06.280
<v Speaker 5>I guess just to celebrate properly with everyone.

0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Now I'm just assuming that everyone turned up, and you know,

0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:11.040
<v Speaker 1>last night turned into a Bollywood movie for the both

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:11.280
<v Speaker 1>of you.

0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:12.000
<v Speaker 5>I love that.

0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:14.240
<v Speaker 2>Can we organize that we should?

0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 1>How funny would it be to her? Well, reimagine that

0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 1>grand finale into a Bollywood film. I think it would

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:20.640
<v Speaker 1>be a great story.

0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:21.480
<v Speaker 3>I'll look back.

0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:22.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm onto something here.

0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 3>I think this is why they pay.

0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:25.600
<v Speaker 2>You the big bucks. You're honestly, this is a great story.

0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:29.840
<v Speaker 1>There was a few moments though, last night we're in

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 1>that final cook you might have been a little bit overwhelmed.

0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:35.719
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to know, you know, you kind of snapped

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:38.640
<v Speaker 1>out of it. What pulled you through in the end?

0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:42.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Look, I think you know this is rather by

0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 3>the way you probably saw that, I completely blank out.

0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:48.479
<v Speaker 3>I throw never happened to me ever in my life.

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 3>I've always known what I need to do next. But

0:04:50.720 --> 0:04:54.479
<v Speaker 3>because that clock was ticking and we had the pressure

0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:56.880
<v Speaker 3>from the judges saying, you know, like the girls, you

0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:59.960
<v Speaker 3>got to move fast enough, and everyone's cheering its life.

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:03.279
<v Speaker 3>It's like a fully final van, except you're in the kitchen.

0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:04.560
<v Speaker 2>She brought the futty final.

0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:09.960
<v Speaker 3>Into and I just prove honestly. And when Nigella came

0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:13.279
<v Speaker 3>to me and she just she just basically spoke to

0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:15.080
<v Speaker 3>me like as if she was speaking to her daughter.

0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:17.359
<v Speaker 3>And this is something she had said off screen to us.

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:19.200
<v Speaker 3>She was like, you guys remind me so much of

0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:21.279
<v Speaker 3>my daughter, and I just my kids, and I just

0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:24.279
<v Speaker 3>feel like as if my motherly instinct took her over,

0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:27.440
<v Speaker 3>it'd just support. You can just give you some encouragement

0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:30.560
<v Speaker 3>word to just snap out of it and remember just

0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 3>to refocus, re energize and re shift and just come back.

0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:36.600
<v Speaker 3>Because we had to put food.

0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:36.800
<v Speaker 2>On a plate.

0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:38.880
<v Speaker 3>And at that point in time, I'll be honest with you,

0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:40.560
<v Speaker 3>event it didn't look like we were going to get

0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:41.520
<v Speaker 3>anything on the plate.

0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:44.120
<v Speaker 1>But look in your face, I was stressed. I've got

0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:45.880
<v Speaker 1>no fingernails left. I had to take them all off.

0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:48.119
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know what to do. Prava, Did you jump

0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 1>in and say snap out of it rather like what

0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:53.680
<v Speaker 1>happened in that point? Did you also have to give

0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:54.799
<v Speaker 1>her some Yeah?

0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:58.159
<v Speaker 3>At that point I knew rather wasn't feeling the very best,

0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:00.520
<v Speaker 3>and I knew that, you know, whatever it is, I

0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 3>needed to step up like the big sister that I

0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 3>am by two minutes only really to then just show

0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:08.920
<v Speaker 3>her you know, it's okay, we're in this together. We're

0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:11.320
<v Speaker 3>going to get it done no matter what. I think

0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:14.119
<v Speaker 3>the best thing with rather is that when she goes

0:06:14.160 --> 0:06:17.440
<v Speaker 3>into that state is that she really listens to comforting

0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:21.880
<v Speaker 3>words and she's able to step back into normality very quickly.

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:25.840
<v Speaker 3>So I think it was very fortunate that not only

0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:28.120
<v Speaker 3>was I there right there to help her come back

0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:32.360
<v Speaker 3>from that, but Nigello's support there was absolutely inspirational and

0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:34.919
<v Speaker 3>I couldn't have asked for a better support person. She

0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:37.120
<v Speaker 3>was just so lovely on the floor with us.

0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:40.200
<v Speaker 1>What about your mom, Like, as both of you, having

0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:44.360
<v Speaker 1>your mom upstairs in the gantry, Yeah, I know that

0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:45.880
<v Speaker 1>that was a bit of a superpower because she was

0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:47.800
<v Speaker 1>able to sort of yell out some directions and look

0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:49.920
<v Speaker 1>over the two of you. But if that was my mum,

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 1>I think I'd be too stressed. I'd be like, shut up,

0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:55.360
<v Speaker 1>mom and go away. Like was it stressful having your

0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:57.760
<v Speaker 1>mom up or was it an added bonus?

0:06:57.960 --> 0:06:58.279
<v Speaker 5>It was?

0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:02.400
<v Speaker 3>Look I think too, because she's like our coach, our ghoul.

0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:04.599
<v Speaker 3>She's the one that taught us these recipes, so it's

0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.680
<v Speaker 3>so much pressure to show her. Hey, mom, look, we're

0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 3>doing it on our own. We're making you proud, We're

0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.640
<v Speaker 3>making our answers this proud. But at the same time,

0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:16.160
<v Speaker 3>I'll tell you, honestly, I don't think it even made

0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:18.680
<v Speaker 3>the edit. Nick and Christian's mom were yelling at Nick

0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:21.880
<v Speaker 3>and christians. Our mom was yelling at us, complete moms

0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:25.400
<v Speaker 3>club up there right like, up there on the balcony,

0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:27.679
<v Speaker 3>wanting all their children to do so well.

0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:29.640
<v Speaker 2>And it was just so beautiful.

0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:31.960
<v Speaker 3>And this is something that NICKI and Christian probably and

0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:34.760
<v Speaker 3>I we all had a huge laughing giggle about behind

0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:38.120
<v Speaker 3>the scenes, was that moms were our biggest supporters and

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:41.240
<v Speaker 3>they have a certain way of wanting to do things,

0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:44.080
<v Speaker 3>and we're just so proud to show them that, you know,

0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:47.239
<v Speaker 3>we're doing it this way. So it was a beautiful moment,

0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:50.000
<v Speaker 3>but a highly pressured environment with.

0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:53.320
<v Speaker 2>The judges, the contestant teams, your parents up there.

0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:56.080
<v Speaker 3>It's just so much emotions at the same time, it

0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:57.240
<v Speaker 3>hits you like a freight train.

0:07:57.760 --> 0:08:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, Nick and Christian kept saying that throughout the series,

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, if we make it to the final, mums

0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:04.680
<v Speaker 1>will be there at one point, you know, one of

0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:06.840
<v Speaker 1>them rang their mum and face timed her and.

0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:09.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, absolutely, and you can see how much their mums

0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 3>inspired them, how much our mom has inspired us. You know,

0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:16.480
<v Speaker 3>just the word mum is synonymous to inspiration, isn't it.

0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:20.160
<v Speaker 3>So think that's something that all four of us competitors,

0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:22.920
<v Speaker 3>we've really just bonded over that, and it just makes

0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.840
<v Speaker 3>the grand Final cook a little bit more easier for

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:27.760
<v Speaker 3>all four of us in this situation.

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:32.880
<v Speaker 1>I think that people really appreciate heritage cooking and passing

0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:36.080
<v Speaker 1>on recipes. I think that's really it was a part

0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:38.280
<v Speaker 1>of the recipe to your success as well. Do you

0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:40.200
<v Speaker 1>think that that was a part of your superpower and

0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:44.160
<v Speaker 1>winning the show was talking about your late father and

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 1>the importance of passing recipes, doubt. Do you think that

0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:49.520
<v Speaker 1>that was something that really won over the judges.

0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:52.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think that's definitely got to part to do

0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:55.640
<v Speaker 3>with it, because I believe that the food that we share,

0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:57.640
<v Speaker 3>the food that we like, and the food that we cook,

0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:00.640
<v Speaker 3>it's a medium. It's a platform to be able to

0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:03.559
<v Speaker 3>share with your generations of families, to show that what

0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:05.840
<v Speaker 3>you do with it, you know, create a new recipe,

0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:09.120
<v Speaker 3>get inspired by you know, your grandpa's recipe and things

0:09:09.200 --> 0:09:11.680
<v Speaker 3>like that. So I think it's it was very stumbling

0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:13.600
<v Speaker 3>to hear that everyone was.

0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:16.040
<v Speaker 2>Intrigued by our food family tree.

0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:19.959
<v Speaker 3>But I must say then thousands and thousands of families

0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:23.520
<v Speaker 3>out there in Australia and worldwide who have such treasured

0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:27.400
<v Speaker 3>and tasty recipes passed down from generations. And I think

0:09:27.679 --> 0:09:30.800
<v Speaker 3>what is so wonderful about my kitchen rules in Australia

0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:33.880
<v Speaker 3>is that strandings are given that platform to really come

0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:37.320
<v Speaker 3>and showcase the cultural diversity we have in food. And

0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:40.120
<v Speaker 3>I think this is just a beautiful stepping stone and

0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:43.199
<v Speaker 3>an inspiration to everyone else in the encouragement that if

0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:46.080
<v Speaker 3>you've got family recipes that you want to share, just

0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:48.760
<v Speaker 3>believe in them and just go show the judges what

0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:52.240
<v Speaker 3>your family food trees about, because let's face it, that's

0:09:52.280 --> 0:09:55.040
<v Speaker 3>exactly what your cultural identity is. That's what your food

0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:58.000
<v Speaker 3>identity is, and if it's tasty, we'll eat it up

0:09:58.040 --> 0:09:58.440
<v Speaker 3>for sure.

0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Here well, I mean, that's one of my favorite things

0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:02.760
<v Speaker 1>to do if I'm feeling a little bit down, that's

0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:05.920
<v Speaker 1>my comfort food, is to recreate the dishes that my

0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:08.480
<v Speaker 1>grandparents would make for me. They had a lot to

0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:10.440
<v Speaker 1>do with my upbringing, but you know, they had their

0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:14.240
<v Speaker 1>own takes on just simple things like spaghetti bolconnais, different

0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:16.480
<v Speaker 1>recipes that they made that they passed down to me.

0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:20.280
<v Speaker 1>It's my ultimate concert food. I feel somehow connected to

0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:23.280
<v Speaker 1>the people that I've lost. Absolutely, it's a real joy

0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:23.439
<v Speaker 1>in that.

0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:26.400
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, a lot of love, a lot of joy, and

0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:29.480
<v Speaker 3>it sometimes it's a little bit more about the competition, right,

0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:32.400
<v Speaker 3>It's about how well can you translate that onto a

0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:35.200
<v Speaker 3>plate and then make the judges feel the emotion through

0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 3>the food.

0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:36.760
<v Speaker 2>And from the get go.

0:10:36.960 --> 0:10:39.800
<v Speaker 3>You know, Prather and I, that's what we were. It

0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:42.760
<v Speaker 3>was our mission to remain true to ourselves and true

0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:45.400
<v Speaker 3>to these recipes that we've learned from months and to

0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:48.560
<v Speaker 3>really just showcase what our family eats and what our

0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:49.839
<v Speaker 3>fam where we hailed from.

0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:53.240
<v Speaker 2>So it was a very beautiful, beautiful moment and journey

0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:54.160
<v Speaker 2>in this competition.

0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:57.440
<v Speaker 3>And kudos to Nicking Christian because I would have to

0:10:57.440 --> 0:11:00.000
<v Speaker 3>say Prather and I kept saying Nicking Christian while bigause

0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:02.559
<v Speaker 3>competition and to share the podium with them, it was

0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:05.439
<v Speaker 3>an absolute honor and privileged to do with them because

0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:06.120
<v Speaker 3>they're just so.

0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:08.640
<v Speaker 2>Humble and you know what, at the end, of the day.

0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:11.960
<v Speaker 3>You know, they should be definitely feeling like winners too,

0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:14.959
<v Speaker 3>because to serve up a hundred dishes in that Grand

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.559
<v Speaker 3>Final is no easy seat and the fact that they

0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:21.079
<v Speaker 3>did it alongside with us, we know exactly how it feels.

0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:23.600
<v Speaker 3>So we just wanted to do a huge shout out

0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:25.920
<v Speaker 3>and just say, you know, they did them a massive

0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:28.200
<v Speaker 3>effort as well a mammoth task, and they should be

0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:29.839
<v Speaker 3>feeling very proud of themselves.

0:11:29.880 --> 0:11:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Of course, I think what was happening at the end

0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:34.240
<v Speaker 1>of the day was you were making and what stood

0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:36.000
<v Speaker 1>you out just a little bit further because it was

0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:40.280
<v Speaker 1>very tough competition, was you made tasting, more affordable meals

0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:43.559
<v Speaker 1>that you could turn over. And I think that ultimately,

0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:47.200
<v Speaker 1>whilst the boys did cook consistently well, I think that

0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:51.040
<v Speaker 1>MKR values that exactly right.

0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:53.920
<v Speaker 3>My Kitchen Rules is all about you know, home cooking

0:11:54.040 --> 0:11:56.200
<v Speaker 3>and you know what can be afforded. But at the

0:11:56.240 --> 0:11:59.600
<v Speaker 3>same time, you know it's tricky to have a really

0:11:59.640 --> 0:12:03.079
<v Speaker 3>good tasty meal at affordable prices, and that's what run

0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:05.800
<v Speaker 3>and I'm trying to debund that. You know, you can

0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:08.520
<v Speaker 3>do it if the flavor. It's all about emotion, it's

0:12:08.520 --> 0:12:11.960
<v Speaker 3>about happiness, isn't it. Of course, it's impacts so much

0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:14.839
<v Speaker 3>flavor in just little staples that you can cook in

0:12:15.360 --> 0:12:18.480
<v Speaker 3>your normal households. But don't get me wrong, we love love.

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:19.720
<v Speaker 2>Stuff, so I'll actually dish.

0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:22.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, I wanted to ask you as well.

0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:26.600
<v Speaker 1>Were there any twin superpowers that came into effect while

0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:29.160
<v Speaker 1>making the show? People often talk about this. I have

0:12:29.240 --> 0:12:31.080
<v Speaker 1>to tell you a quick story. I once dated a

0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:33.920
<v Speaker 1>twin and you know, it was only a very couple

0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:36.840
<v Speaker 1>of dates, but they left the date because they said

0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:39.920
<v Speaker 1>that they had a feeling that their twin was in trouble.

0:12:40.280 --> 0:12:42.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I never got a second date, so maybe

0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:46.160
<v Speaker 1>this was just an excuse. I don't know, but but

0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:48.600
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to know though, for you two, was there

0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:51.320
<v Speaker 1>any twin superpowers that was an advantage to being able

0:12:51.320 --> 0:12:52.640
<v Speaker 1>to win MKR?

0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:53.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:54.840
<v Speaker 2>I think the help telepathy.

0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:58.520
<v Speaker 3>And you know, it's never been obviously like between you

0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:02.600
<v Speaker 3>and the husband being broadcasted at such a national level before,

0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:05.400
<v Speaker 3>so it's just between family. But I must say that

0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:08.920
<v Speaker 3>going in there, we knew that we could tap into

0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:11.920
<v Speaker 3>each other's emotions, we could tap into each other's thoughts.

0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:12.880
<v Speaker 2>At some point we.

0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:15.640
<v Speaker 3>Just stop the telepath and just started vocally talking like

0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:19.640
<v Speaker 3>more more people. But I think when I started to free,

0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:22.679
<v Speaker 3>Prava knew exactly when to come up help me and

0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:24.959
<v Speaker 3>then sort of take lead in the kitchen, and then

0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:28.959
<v Speaker 3>we were able to, I guess, just refocus very quickly.

0:13:29.200 --> 0:13:31.560
<v Speaker 3>And that was the superpower that I think we both

0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:33.840
<v Speaker 3>relied on, was that if you need to lean on

0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:36.000
<v Speaker 3>each other emotionally.

0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:37.079
<v Speaker 2>Or physically, just do it.

0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:40.760
<v Speaker 3>Because we've been together basically since the moment we were.

0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 1>Born, before you were born, you know, nine months before,

0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:47.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, also having a wonderful time in the womb.

0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:50.760
<v Speaker 1>So rather, I think I could see I could read

0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:54.000
<v Speaker 1>your body language more than I could with Prava, And

0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:55.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, is that a thing between the two

0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:57.480
<v Speaker 1>of you. Rather, do you wear your heart on your

0:13:57.480 --> 0:13:58.440
<v Speaker 1>sleeve a little bit more?

0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:02.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Yeah, right then I'm more like I love some

0:14:02.800 --> 0:14:05.000
<v Speaker 3>of my emotion even more. When I'm happy, I smile.

0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:08.520
<v Speaker 2>When I'm angry, I don't. But the best thing is.

0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:10.640
<v Speaker 3>That I know exactly when she's like super happy, when

0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:12.160
<v Speaker 3>she's super mad, you know, And.

0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:14.040
<v Speaker 2>That's the beauty of the both of us.

0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:16.440
<v Speaker 3>We give a little bit, we take a little We're

0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:19.840
<v Speaker 3>very mysterious to the public sometimes and we can just

0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:22.280
<v Speaker 3>tap into these other emotions a lot, so there's a

0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:24.480
<v Speaker 3>great balance between the both of us.

0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:26.280
<v Speaker 2>And sure, I love it.

0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:27.840
<v Speaker 1>I love it so much. So did you reach out

0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:29.800
<v Speaker 1>to the boys last night? Did you shoot them a text?

0:14:29.840 --> 0:14:33.320
<v Speaker 1>Did your videotime? How did you contact the boys just

0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:35.600
<v Speaker 1>to say thank you? Because I know the two of

0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:37.560
<v Speaker 1>you well enough to know that that phone call would

0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:38.480
<v Speaker 1>have been important to you.

0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:43.200
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, yeah, absolutely right, Ben, We when we celebrating, we

0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:45.800
<v Speaker 3>definitely shut them a text. We know that they were

0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:49.160
<v Speaker 3>having a watch party as well, so we definitely had

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:52.680
<v Speaker 3>a couple of words exchanged. We did keep in touch

0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:55.800
<v Speaker 3>with Nick and Christian quite regularly because they're just such

0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:58.480
<v Speaker 3>humble boys and we love their personality and their yests

0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:02.120
<v Speaker 3>for life. We did congrat then again, you know, testimony

0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:05.480
<v Speaker 3>to their personality and their upbringing because they did a

0:15:05.480 --> 0:15:09.760
<v Speaker 3>beautiful video on their Instagram that shouted to us, and

0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:11.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, this morning we were able to find some

0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:14.480
<v Speaker 3>time out and just do a beautiful thank you post

0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:17.160
<v Speaker 3>to them as well. So it's a beautiful friendship that

0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:21.760
<v Speaker 3>is blossoming beautifully. And to do remain friends after.

0:15:21.440 --> 0:15:23.600
<v Speaker 2>The show, it's a very special thing.

0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:26.640
<v Speaker 3>Because you know how reality TV works, it's sometimes it's

0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:29.520
<v Speaker 3>only for the show. But with Nicking Christian and US two,

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:31.160
<v Speaker 3>definitely it was real.

0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:33.120
<v Speaker 2>It's real. Yeah, the friendship's real.

0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:35.560
<v Speaker 1>What did you think of the drama though this season?

0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Because I mean from I remember the very first episode

0:15:38.680 --> 0:15:42.200
<v Speaker 1>so clearly Claudine and Christian were butting heads and they

0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:45.320
<v Speaker 1>cut to the two of you, and you two look

0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:48.320
<v Speaker 1>like you'd just landed on a different planet with a

0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:51.200
<v Speaker 1>whole bunch of aliens. You both look like you didn't

0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:52.720
<v Speaker 1>know what to do with it. What was it like

0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:55.240
<v Speaker 1>in the moment? Was it a lot of detention? And

0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:56.200
<v Speaker 1>how did you deal with it?

0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:59.880
<v Speaker 5>You know that moment it was you know, like observation. Really,

0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:05.000
<v Speaker 5>it's like though that you too just met, Yeah, how

0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:07.920
<v Speaker 5>are you starting on this sport? Like yeah, I held

0:16:08.000 --> 0:16:11.000
<v Speaker 5>this isn't just like it's it's just for the show.

0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:14.160
<v Speaker 3>It's not actually like this. But we were actually just

0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:18.320
<v Speaker 3>really intrigued to see how you know, Christian was just himself.

0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:22.080
<v Speaker 3>He really is got talented and knowledgeable in his food

0:16:22.120 --> 0:16:24.800
<v Speaker 3>and I'm not gonna lie, the guy knows his stuff.

0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:27.360
<v Speaker 3>We made it to the Grand Final because he has.

0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:28.840
<v Speaker 2>That much knowledge in food.

0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:32.320
<v Speaker 3>His Pilotte is so sensitive and that it just sparks

0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:35.240
<v Speaker 3>so much interest, like Claudine was, you know what I

0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:38.239
<v Speaker 3>think it was then. I think Claudine was very interested

0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:41.560
<v Speaker 3>in Christian's level of knowledge in.

0:16:41.600 --> 0:16:44.160
<v Speaker 1>Food, maybe a little maybe a little jealous.

0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:45.240
<v Speaker 5>I don't think it came.

0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Out of jealousy.

0:16:45.880 --> 0:16:48.920
<v Speaker 3>I think she was like, and this is a sestimont

0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:52.360
<v Speaker 3>to sentiment to Claudine, she wears her heart on her sleeve,

0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:56.320
<v Speaker 3>and she if she's intrigued, she will ask questions. And

0:16:56.680 --> 0:17:00.400
<v Speaker 3>I guess the way she asked Christian all these questions actually,

0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:03.240
<v Speaker 3>you know, made us take a step back because we

0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:05.520
<v Speaker 3>were like, this is very full on at one point,

0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:07.520
<v Speaker 3>and we had no idea what to do. We would

0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:10.399
<v Speaker 3>just sit there and observe these to just pash it out.

0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:12.680
<v Speaker 1>Of course, take the back seat, Like that's what I

0:17:12.720 --> 0:17:14.040
<v Speaker 1>would have done. I would have been like, I'm not

0:17:14.040 --> 0:17:16.280
<v Speaker 1>getting involved in this. I could get the popcorn out,

0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:18.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, maybe maybe some puppet ums. I don't know.

0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:21.840
<v Speaker 1>Like I also was going to say, did you see

0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:25.320
<v Speaker 1>yesterday that Tommy and Rachel were they had they did

0:17:25.320 --> 0:17:27.280
<v Speaker 1>an interview with one of the publications and said they

0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:30.800
<v Speaker 1>felt a little disadvantage this season. Did you read that

0:17:30.840 --> 0:17:33.560
<v Speaker 1>story because they felt being initially sent through to that

0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:36.840
<v Speaker 1>quarter final came at at a bit of a price.

0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:38.520
<v Speaker 1>What do you think Do you think it was a

0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:41.560
<v Speaker 1>disadvantage to cook less or to cook more?

0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:45.800
<v Speaker 3>I think it was a like you know, obviously, you're

0:17:45.840 --> 0:17:46.560
<v Speaker 3>absolutely right.

0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:48.560
<v Speaker 2>The fact was that Trava.

0:17:48.400 --> 0:17:50.800
<v Speaker 3>And I we were fast truck to the Semis, Tommy

0:17:50.800 --> 0:17:53.080
<v Speaker 3>and Rage fast truck to quarter finals. So that meant

0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:56.639
<v Speaker 3>that we didn't cook as much as we had wanted to.

0:17:57.080 --> 0:17:59.640
<v Speaker 3>But on the bright side, we were cooking so well.

0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:01.040
<v Speaker 2>That we didn't need to cook that much.

0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:03.840
<v Speaker 3>We didn't actually have the opportunity to book so much

0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:07.760
<v Speaker 3>into the HQ, into the headquarters kitchen. That did put

0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:11.280
<v Speaker 3>us as a bit of a difficultantage. We needed to

0:18:11.400 --> 0:18:14.760
<v Speaker 3>know exactly how we work together in a new kitchen,

0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:18.320
<v Speaker 3>and pressure in that kitchen was completely different to the

0:18:18.400 --> 0:18:21.720
<v Speaker 3>one that you're an home instant restaurants exactly, and so

0:18:21.880 --> 0:18:24.760
<v Speaker 3>different things we couldn't We had to actually, like you

0:18:24.800 --> 0:18:27.240
<v Speaker 3>know how they say, if you're good, you'll know if

0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:29.399
<v Speaker 3>you're in that kitchen, or if you're bad, you'll mo

0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:31.480
<v Speaker 3>as well. So we kind of had to just rely

0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:33.679
<v Speaker 3>on the fact that Rad and I were on the

0:18:33.720 --> 0:18:36.040
<v Speaker 3>same wavelength, were able to bounce back if there was

0:18:36.040 --> 0:18:40.040
<v Speaker 3>any issues in that kitchen. But navigating that kitchen straight

0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:42.600
<v Speaker 3>in the semis when everybody else had a really good

0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:45.920
<v Speaker 3>chance to understand that kitchen was it was a huge

0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:48.600
<v Speaker 3>change for us. We needed to be on the mark

0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:50.119
<v Speaker 3>otherwise we're going to fall behind.

0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:53.359
<v Speaker 1>Yes, this is positive criticism, not negative, but the show

0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:55.760
<v Speaker 1>for the audience felt like it was a bit short,

0:18:55.840 --> 0:18:58.080
<v Speaker 1>that we needed to see more. Do you think that

0:18:58.200 --> 0:19:00.399
<v Speaker 1>you know when the series comes back, because you know,

0:19:00.440 --> 0:19:02.520
<v Speaker 1>I do hear that it's coming back for twenty twenty four.

0:19:02.640 --> 0:19:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Do you think that we need to have a longer

0:19:04.320 --> 0:19:07.359
<v Speaker 1>series to avoid because I mean, winning a fast tracked

0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:09.919
<v Speaker 1>past to the end is amazing, which is great, you know,

0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:11.920
<v Speaker 1>but do you think if we'd fleshed it out a

0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:15.080
<v Speaker 1>little bit more we could see more of the character

0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:17.000
<v Speaker 1>and say more of the abilities.

0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:19.880
<v Speaker 3>I think the format, you know, we've been n chaostic

0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:23.720
<v Speaker 3>offend since day once, right, so we've seen all public challenges,

0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:26.760
<v Speaker 3>you know, people going out to like you know, supermarkets

0:19:26.760 --> 0:19:28.679
<v Speaker 3>and cooking and all these beautiful challenges with.

0:19:28.720 --> 0:19:31.639
<v Speaker 2>Teams teaning up you know, we would have loved that

0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:34.240
<v Speaker 2>as well. I think, yeah, you're right, it would show

0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:35.120
<v Speaker 2>so much more.

0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:38.639
<v Speaker 3>The format would just allow for more character development, a

0:19:38.640 --> 0:19:42.040
<v Speaker 3>lot more skills to be shown. But also the format

0:19:42.119 --> 0:19:45.000
<v Speaker 3>of us being fast tracked to the semifinals and Tommy

0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:47.840
<v Speaker 3>en reach faster to quarter finals. I think that's where

0:19:47.840 --> 0:19:50.200
<v Speaker 3>we just felt like we have to sit and wait

0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:53.040
<v Speaker 3>for a bit and then the next time we cook

0:19:53.240 --> 0:19:55.920
<v Speaker 3>it is honestly, then it's such a big leak from

0:19:55.960 --> 0:19:59.400
<v Speaker 3>instant restaurant to kitchen headquarters. Yes, and the good thing

0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:02.199
<v Speaker 3>is that Nikki Christian had that gradual build up to

0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:05.199
<v Speaker 3>build their skill level, whereas Probab and we had to

0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:09.600
<v Speaker 3>take this huge leap from instant restaurants straight to semifinal.

0:20:09.720 --> 0:20:13.440
<v Speaker 3>Either we bring our games and we survived or weren't out.

0:20:13.680 --> 0:20:15.960
<v Speaker 3>So it was a huge thing for us during the

0:20:16.000 --> 0:20:18.960
<v Speaker 3>break to keep practicing as much as we can because

0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:21.720
<v Speaker 3>we were like, if our competition is not resting, we're

0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:22.640
<v Speaker 3>not resting either.

0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:26.080
<v Speaker 1>Do you think that Tommy and Rachel will now feel

0:20:26.080 --> 0:20:28.879
<v Speaker 1>differently because you both won, because I mean you you

0:20:29.000 --> 0:20:31.680
<v Speaker 1>got fast tracked more than anyone really, So do you

0:20:31.720 --> 0:20:33.760
<v Speaker 1>think that they'll now look at that a little bit differently,

0:20:34.000 --> 0:20:36.240
<v Speaker 1>because even though the boys did get to cook a lot,

0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:38.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, they still they still missed out just at

0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:39.520
<v Speaker 1>the last hurdle.

0:20:39.880 --> 0:20:42.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well, it's hard to say what Tommy and rape Field,

0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:46.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean, they're really you know, nice people, so you know,

0:20:46.560 --> 0:20:49.000
<v Speaker 3>it's hard to say, but I feel like we all

0:20:49.000 --> 0:20:54.000
<v Speaker 3>had a really good chance and able to showcase our skills,

0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:56.480
<v Speaker 3>and I think Rada and I come to think of it,

0:20:56.520 --> 0:20:59.960
<v Speaker 3>we're very grateful for the opportunity and we really did

0:21:00.520 --> 0:21:03.320
<v Speaker 3>work very very hard to go to the Grand Final,

0:21:03.359 --> 0:21:06.480
<v Speaker 3>and I guess everyone else has also worked very very

0:21:06.480 --> 0:21:09.760
<v Speaker 3>hard in this competition, so I think, yeah, it's a

0:21:09.920 --> 0:21:13.040
<v Speaker 3>very it's hindsight is such a beautiful thing, but I

0:21:13.040 --> 0:21:15.440
<v Speaker 3>think at the end of the day, they definitely put

0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:17.640
<v Speaker 3>everything on the plate so with and we still keep

0:21:17.640 --> 0:21:19.800
<v Speaker 3>in touch with Tommy and rachelil this day as well.

0:21:19.880 --> 0:21:21.760
<v Speaker 2>So there's such beautiful people.

0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:23.560
<v Speaker 3>In it, and I know that they're still still humble

0:21:23.600 --> 0:21:25.560
<v Speaker 3>and grateful for the opportunity to well.

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:27.080
<v Speaker 1>I feel like all of these people could have a

0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:29.240
<v Speaker 1>little cameo in the Bollywood remake, and I.

0:21:29.160 --> 0:21:31.840
<v Speaker 3>Think all of them need a cameo. I think we've

0:21:31.840 --> 0:21:34.320
<v Speaker 3>got ready made up in that mind as to which one's.

0:21:34.080 --> 0:21:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Going to play what characters, of course, and we've got

0:21:36.080 --> 0:21:37.760
<v Speaker 1>to get Manu in there, We've got Colin in there,

0:21:37.760 --> 0:21:39.840
<v Speaker 1>We've got to get them all. But you know, working

0:21:39.880 --> 0:21:43.879
<v Speaker 1>alongside people as amazing cooks, as amazing as Manu and

0:21:43.960 --> 0:21:46.399
<v Speaker 1>Colin and their critiques, is that that has happened this

0:21:46.440 --> 0:21:49.240
<v Speaker 1>season would have been phenomenal. And a few contestants talked

0:21:49.280 --> 0:21:52.080
<v Speaker 1>about the advice and the knowledge that they were able

0:21:52.119 --> 0:21:55.240
<v Speaker 1>to share. What about for you too, personally? What did

0:21:55.280 --> 0:21:57.640
<v Speaker 1>you walk away learning from both of them?

0:21:57.960 --> 0:22:00.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, look, I think what we learned from them and

0:22:00.640 --> 0:22:03.479
<v Speaker 3>this is something that probably happened more behind the scenes

0:22:03.560 --> 0:22:08.280
<v Speaker 3>than on camera. But obviously Nigella, Manu and Colin they're

0:22:08.440 --> 0:22:12.160
<v Speaker 3>very they're very cultured people. They're well traveled and they

0:22:12.240 --> 0:22:16.200
<v Speaker 3>know Indian flavors. So it's a testament to show Australia

0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:21.520
<v Speaker 3>that these judges know diverse cultural foods and so they

0:22:21.600 --> 0:22:25.880
<v Speaker 3>beedback on Indian food from them because obviously they've been

0:22:25.960 --> 0:22:29.280
<v Speaker 3>to India, They've also eaten authentic traditional Indian food, They've

0:22:29.359 --> 0:22:33.240
<v Speaker 3>tried all these flavors. Nigella's palette, I must say it's

0:22:33.440 --> 0:22:37.040
<v Speaker 3>very sophisticated. She would take something and she would be like,

0:22:37.080 --> 0:22:38.199
<v Speaker 3>are you sure you're happy with this?

0:22:38.280 --> 0:22:40.199
<v Speaker 2>I sure it's something's in a spice, you know.

0:22:40.280 --> 0:22:43.719
<v Speaker 3>She would know the spices colon news of camera. They

0:22:43.760 --> 0:22:46.679
<v Speaker 3>knew exactly what we were working with. So honestly, we

0:22:46.800 --> 0:22:49.760
<v Speaker 3>must say that we were very humble to see how

0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:53.800
<v Speaker 3>well traveled they are and how sophisticated their palette is.

0:22:53.840 --> 0:22:57.760
<v Speaker 3>To know millions of spices that we use, the level

0:22:57.800 --> 0:23:00.800
<v Speaker 3>and sophistication and the complexity that we we mix them with.

0:23:01.000 --> 0:23:02.399
<v Speaker 2>They know what they're talking about.

0:23:02.680 --> 0:23:05.280
<v Speaker 3>And to get advice from them, to just say, you know,

0:23:05.640 --> 0:23:08.199
<v Speaker 3>pull back on the heat or add some sweetness or

0:23:08.240 --> 0:23:12.040
<v Speaker 3>have some acidity, and just to understand all these flavors.

0:23:11.720 --> 0:23:14.480
<v Speaker 3>It's a real dream come true to get that feedback

0:23:14.480 --> 0:23:15.320
<v Speaker 3>from everybody.

0:23:15.480 --> 0:23:17.320
<v Speaker 1>Of course, of course, and I'm going to ask the

0:23:17.359 --> 0:23:19.560
<v Speaker 1>worst question that you can ask anyone off a reality

0:23:19.600 --> 0:23:21.960
<v Speaker 1>show is who is your favorite? Out of those three?

0:23:22.080 --> 0:23:25.720
<v Speaker 1>So who's your favorite? Including Nigella from Okay your time

0:23:25.760 --> 0:23:28.359
<v Speaker 1>on the show. And granted, they're very busy people, so

0:23:28.400 --> 0:23:30.359
<v Speaker 1>they'll probably never listen to this podcast, so they probably

0:23:30.400 --> 0:23:30.919
<v Speaker 1>never will know.

0:23:31.240 --> 0:23:33.160
<v Speaker 3>We have to say, I think all of them are

0:23:33.280 --> 0:23:36.679
<v Speaker 3>our favorite. Can't we can't single them out? You know,

0:23:36.840 --> 0:23:42.240
<v Speaker 3>together they are such a powerhouse, culinary judge girls.

0:23:42.480 --> 0:23:45.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh man, it's on brand for the two of you.

0:23:45.359 --> 0:23:46.520
<v Speaker 1>It's on brand for the two of you.

0:23:46.800 --> 0:23:49.960
<v Speaker 4>With each of them then it's so beautiful money, it's

0:23:50.040 --> 0:23:53.760
<v Speaker 4>so funny. Nigella is so lovely, like you know, Colin

0:23:53.920 --> 0:23:56.840
<v Speaker 4>is just a comedian as well, Like he's like a

0:23:56.920 --> 0:24:01.080
<v Speaker 4>prankster on set as well, Like you know, you can't

0:24:01.080 --> 0:24:04.040
<v Speaker 4>each have qualities that we absolutely love and a door

0:24:04.119 --> 0:24:06.320
<v Speaker 4>and I would just hate to be picking one.

0:24:06.800 --> 0:24:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to let you off the hook because I

0:24:08.480 --> 0:24:10.359
<v Speaker 1>feel like it's on brand. It's on brand for the

0:24:10.359 --> 0:24:12.639
<v Speaker 1>both of you to just not pick one. So and

0:24:12.680 --> 0:24:13.960
<v Speaker 1>who am I to mess with the brand?

0:24:14.200 --> 0:24:17.160
<v Speaker 3>And they're like the trick sector, Yeah, you need thanks.

0:24:19.000 --> 0:24:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Otherwise you got nothing.

0:24:20.640 --> 0:24:22.280
<v Speaker 1>I have to say that the two of you as well.

0:24:22.520 --> 0:24:25.200
<v Speaker 1>So in our house, my mum would sound a Friday

0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:27.400
<v Speaker 1>night where most of Australia would be having either fish

0:24:27.400 --> 0:24:29.960
<v Speaker 1>and chips on McDonald's. She would say to us kids,

0:24:30.000 --> 0:24:32.199
<v Speaker 1>what do you want for takeaway? And we would be

0:24:32.359 --> 0:24:35.760
<v Speaker 1>like Indian food And it was very expensive at that

0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:38.919
<v Speaker 1>time in Melbourne to buy it. Yeah, but I just

0:24:38.920 --> 0:24:41.480
<v Speaker 1>want to let you both know that I'm I'm such

0:24:41.520 --> 0:24:44.600
<v Speaker 1>a big fan for the flavors and watching you both

0:24:44.680 --> 0:24:47.520
<v Speaker 1>cook just made me so goddamn hungry. But are you

0:24:47.560 --> 0:24:49.200
<v Speaker 1>going to cook some Are you going to make some

0:24:49.240 --> 0:24:51.679
<v Speaker 1>products from this opportunity? Are you going to make some

0:24:51.680 --> 0:24:54.359
<v Speaker 1>products and put them into our Australian grocery stores? Because

0:24:54.680 --> 0:24:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm a fan, I will be buying them.

0:24:57.880 --> 0:25:00.600
<v Speaker 3>The plan we were going to work the five steps,

0:25:00.600 --> 0:25:03.520
<v Speaker 3>but ultimately, if we get that opportunity, we are going

0:25:03.560 --> 0:25:05.520
<v Speaker 3>to be taking it. It will be such a huge

0:25:05.560 --> 0:25:09.560
<v Speaker 3>pleasure and honor to actually, you know, put that into

0:25:09.600 --> 0:25:12.560
<v Speaker 3>the masses and say, look, you can have a Twindian

0:25:12.640 --> 0:25:15.320
<v Speaker 3>food in your own house. Yeah. And I guess I

0:25:15.320 --> 0:25:17.520
<v Speaker 3>know you didn't ask this, but I'll just tell you anyway.

0:25:17.960 --> 0:25:20.239
<v Speaker 3>Our first step is just to try and see if

0:25:20.240 --> 0:25:23.399
<v Speaker 3>we can get a Twindian cookbook put out on the

0:25:23.440 --> 0:25:25.320
<v Speaker 3>shelves for everyone so they can have a bit of

0:25:25.320 --> 0:25:28.800
<v Speaker 3>Twindian in their household. So we're definitely very focused on

0:25:29.040 --> 0:25:32.080
<v Speaker 3>bringing our food to the masses from the TV show

0:25:32.280 --> 0:25:32.920
<v Speaker 3>right down to.

0:25:32.880 --> 0:25:33.600
<v Speaker 2>The people's home.

0:25:33.720 --> 0:25:36.880
<v Speaker 3>So we're very, very, ultimately, very grateful for this beautiful

0:25:36.960 --> 0:25:39.240
<v Speaker 3>dream of us to come true. But we do want

0:25:39.240 --> 0:25:41.400
<v Speaker 3>to make a difference with the food that we cook.

0:25:41.720 --> 0:25:45.800
<v Speaker 1>If your Twindian food doesn't blow Sshi's kids off the shelves,

0:25:46.000 --> 0:25:48.560
<v Speaker 1>then I'll be I'll eat my hat. I think Sash

0:25:48.720 --> 0:25:51.840
<v Speaker 1>needs to watch out. That's all I can say.

0:25:52.680 --> 0:25:55.600
<v Speaker 3>He was so inspirational even just watching him. We were

0:25:55.640 --> 0:25:58.080
<v Speaker 3>so proud of him and the way that he was.

0:25:58.359 --> 0:26:01.240
<v Speaker 3>You know, he's stuck true to you cultural heritage and

0:26:01.280 --> 0:26:05.040
<v Speaker 3>identity right so and then he's done so much with that.

0:26:05.200 --> 0:26:07.640
<v Speaker 3>So it's just a beautiful, beautiful thing to see, how

0:26:08.359 --> 0:26:11.800
<v Speaker 3>you know, the appetite that Australians have in regards to

0:26:11.880 --> 0:26:14.840
<v Speaker 3>cultural diversity in foods. So we're just so proud in

0:26:14.840 --> 0:26:17.040
<v Speaker 3>honored to be able to represent our Indian culture and

0:26:17.080 --> 0:26:17.960
<v Speaker 3>heritage on the shell.

0:26:18.119 --> 0:26:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, that is very well said. I'm absolutely been thoroughly

0:26:22.080 --> 0:26:24.200
<v Speaker 1>enjoying chatting to the both of you. I knew I would,

0:26:24.280 --> 0:26:25.960
<v Speaker 1>I knew I'd have some twenty in fun with this,

0:26:26.080 --> 0:26:29.440
<v Speaker 1>but I wanted to ask you, what is something from

0:26:29.480 --> 0:26:31.680
<v Speaker 1>behind the scenes, something we didn't see on the show,

0:26:31.800 --> 0:26:34.440
<v Speaker 1>kind of like a behind the scene secret of your

0:26:34.480 --> 0:26:37.200
<v Speaker 1>time making MKR for twenty twenty three.

0:26:37.240 --> 0:26:39.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, absolutely, the behind the scenes and I don't think

0:26:40.080 --> 0:26:41.920
<v Speaker 3>the editing captured this at all.

0:26:41.960 --> 0:26:44.360
<v Speaker 2>And this is like the beauty about it because we.

0:26:44.320 --> 0:26:47.560
<v Speaker 3>Will say this from the rooftop. Trava and I we

0:26:47.600 --> 0:26:51.199
<v Speaker 3>would swap accessories, we would try to dress similar, and

0:26:51.320 --> 0:26:55.760
<v Speaker 3>we would enduring great time sometimes just swap feet and talk.

0:26:55.880 --> 0:26:58.200
<v Speaker 3>I will talk as Prova and Prava will talk as Rada,

0:26:58.480 --> 0:27:00.879
<v Speaker 3>and right till the end we will go be like, hey, guys,

0:27:01.040 --> 0:27:02.000
<v Speaker 3>remember how I said this.

0:27:02.119 --> 0:27:04.159
<v Speaker 2>They'll be like, yeah, that wasn't me, that was Trava.

0:27:04.800 --> 0:27:07.440
<v Speaker 3>In common caught us one time trying to flap seats

0:27:07.440 --> 0:27:08.880
<v Speaker 3>at one of the instant restaurants, and.

0:27:08.880 --> 0:27:11.200
<v Speaker 2>He grabbed us and put us back onto his feet the.

0:27:11.200 --> 0:27:13.439
<v Speaker 3>Right one and quin fun behind the scene.

0:27:13.840 --> 0:27:15.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm now started, I feel like I should ask you this,

0:27:15.600 --> 0:27:16.919
<v Speaker 1>what do you reckon? Do you reckon that twin that

0:27:16.960 --> 0:27:18.359
<v Speaker 1>I went on the date with. Do you reckon that

0:27:18.880 --> 0:27:21.840
<v Speaker 1>he actually was being able to connect with his twin

0:27:21.920 --> 0:27:23.359
<v Speaker 1>or do you think he was just blowing me off?

0:27:23.560 --> 0:27:26.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh? Look, man, I really feel for you right now.

0:27:26.240 --> 0:27:28.040
<v Speaker 5>But he's as strong as out.

0:27:28.119 --> 0:27:31.719
<v Speaker 3>He probably did feel someone. But if he did feel something,

0:27:31.760 --> 0:27:35.040
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure he should have should have expected that saying, oh, hey,

0:27:35.119 --> 0:27:38.480
<v Speaker 3>my twin like accidentally just you know, got in a

0:27:38.520 --> 0:27:41.160
<v Speaker 3>car act something. And that's why I said that if

0:27:41.160 --> 0:27:43.480
<v Speaker 3>he didn't test you, man, I'm so slow to say

0:27:43.720 --> 0:27:44.520
<v Speaker 3>you got blown off.

0:27:44.680 --> 0:27:48.640
<v Speaker 5>I mean so so he really just us his twin, yeah,

0:27:48.640 --> 0:27:51.639
<v Speaker 5>as a backup, like it wasn't even a phone.

0:27:51.440 --> 0:27:52.480
