Speaker 1: Laura and come on here, Hello Laura, Hello Mitch Cherie.
Speaker 2: We are, but we are also missing someone. We are
Speaker 2: missing for it.
Speaker 3: We are literally not in the studio and also we're
Speaker 3: kind of missing our beloved.
Speaker 1: No metaphorically and physically.
Speaker 2: She's away in the African jungle and it's just been
Speaker 2: you and me, baby.
Speaker 3: Can you not the last couple of days you're saying
Speaker 3: it like she's on a Kentiki tour. She's off doing
Speaker 3: fourteen days of Zambia all the ways in Babwe.
Speaker 2: I mean to be fair, there's a lot of testicles
Speaker 2: that are flying around. That happens on a tour, also
Speaker 2: happens in the African jungle when you're on a celebrity
Speaker 2: Get me out of here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's on I'm a celebrit We love her. In fact,
Speaker 3: today we're going to be touching base with her for
Speaker 3: the very first time since she appeared in the jungle.
Speaker 3: Like apparently she's recorded an exclusive interview that they're not
Speaker 3: airing on TV.
Speaker 1: It's just for us, Yeah, just for us, just for
Speaker 1: the pickup.
Speaker 2: That was like one of our caveats of her going
Speaker 2: and leaving us for so long is that we are
Speaker 2: getting every day some exclusive access to the people who
Speaker 2: are inside the jungle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, very Stephen Amos, who's the British comedian. He loves
Speaker 3: the Royals. Apparently she's asked him some questions that he
Speaker 3: opened up, because you know, she hosts Life on Cut,
Speaker 3: the podcast. She's very good at getting people to open up.
Speaker 3: He's opened up, so we'll hear that's okay.
Speaker 2: Well, we are living very different lives at the moment
Speaker 2: because while Britt is off gallivanting with Zebra's, I need
Speaker 2: to get out of here at four pm on the
Speaker 2: Dot because I got to go to the Easter hat
Speaker 2: parade for my kids.
Speaker 3: Oh they still do those things.
Speaker 2: Yes, But also I'm I think I might be like
Speaker 2: a weird anomaly because when it comes to Easter hat parades,
Speaker 2: I'm really competitive, Like I want to make the hat
Speaker 2: for the kids, and this year they made them at daycare,
Speaker 2: and so I wasn't allowed to do anything, and so
Speaker 2: I have this like, well now I need to see
Speaker 2: how good the hat is.
Speaker 3: Wait, did you tamper with your children's hat?
Speaker 1: Everything is a competition, mistery.
Speaker 3: These other kids are going to come in with paper
Speaker 3: mache and I will mess those kids up. You're terrible,
Speaker 3: your shocking mouth. I'd hate to be another mom in
Speaker 3: the car park with you. Keep all right, Well, let's
Speaker 3: get you out to please to happarade before you get there.
Speaker 3: Next on the show, Guy Sebastian and Sam Fisher have
Speaker 3: released a beautiful new song.
Speaker 2: They've released a love song together and it's gorgeous.
Speaker 3: Well, I wonder if they're about to come out and
Speaker 3: announce it they're in love with each other. Maybe we'll
Speaker 3: have to ask because they're joining us live on the
Speaker 3: Pickup next, So let's go around Australia for your Wednesday.
Speaker 3: This is the Pickup Now. You are listening to kiss
Speaker 3: out there, you most definitely would have heard one of
Speaker 3: the most beautiful songs we've added to the playlist in
Speaker 3: a long time. It's Antidote.
Speaker 1: Put it on repeat.
Speaker 3: It's so good. It's Guy Sebastian, it is the beautiful
Speaker 3: Sam Fisher. This song is everything the world needs right

Speaker 4: Go whis up?
Speaker 1: Hey guys, welcome, Welcome to the Pickup. Now.
Speaker 2: This song Antidote, it is beautiful. But let's not skim
Speaker 2: over the fact that this is a love song.
Speaker 3: It's a very gay song.
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful love song. Where did it come from?
Speaker 1: Between two beautiful men? It deep in the hearts.
Speaker 4: We've become a boy band.
Speaker 3: Yes, guy, you don't sound excited at all. You say
Speaker 3: that with sadness in your voice.

Speaker 4: we've been trying to think of it. Fisher and gey

Speaker 5: It's me fishing and guy like in the water. You
Speaker 5: get it.
Speaker 1: I think you guys have been spending too much time together.
Speaker 6: That's never enough. We know what we said in the session.
Speaker 6: We were like, when's the last time to dudes? Did
Speaker 6: and like it is very much a love song. We
Speaker 6: actually wrote it as an open theme, but for us
Speaker 6: it's like a love song to music. Yeah so if
Speaker 6: and you'll probably listen to it differently now when you
Speaker 6: hear certain lyrics like it started by just firstly it
Speaker 6: was it was a last line of a wedding speech.
Speaker 6: My drama got married and he said, you're the antidote
Speaker 6: to all my problems and then started crying and we
Speaker 6: were like, my god, what a beautiful thing to say
Speaker 6: to another human being.
Speaker 4: And then I had.
Speaker 6: This little idea sketched out for a chorus. Sam came
Speaker 6: in the next day.
Speaker 5: I got really lucky to be fair. Guy had the concept,
Speaker 5: You had the title, He had beautiful chords and melodies,
Speaker 5: and I just kind of came.
Speaker 4: Not how.
Speaker 6: He comes in and just like makes it cool and
Speaker 6: and spits out lyrics like you know you can get.
Speaker 4: Them from star learn to dancing Okay, just things like that.
Speaker 6: But you know, we firstly just talked as most songwriting
Speaker 6: sessions just hours of like yeah, it's a bit therapy, like,
Speaker 6: but we're just But I said to Sam, dude, I
Speaker 6: was listening to the city for about a year and
Speaker 6: a half before it blew up. And I asked him
Speaker 6: why that was, and then Sam sheard, you know all
Speaker 6: about how he was at rock bottom and you know,
Speaker 6: you guys have chatted about this with Sam before.
Speaker 3: Well, Sam, I remember we were hanging out with you.
Speaker 3: Laura and I were at dinner with you.
Speaker 4: Where's this going? Looks like you can't.
Speaker 3: Trust me, I'm not going to turn this into anything sexual.
Speaker 3: Don't worry not you. And you played us this song
Speaker 3: on your phone like months ago, like it would have
Speaker 3: been October last year. You're like, look at this incredible
Speaker 3: song and you played it to us and we were like,
Speaker 3: oh my god, it needs a lot of work.
Speaker 7: First.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, Laura and I both said back to the studio, SAMs,

Speaker 5: we've basically just been it's been a love fest over here.
Speaker 4: We've been gassing each other.
Speaker 6: It's been a lot of hanging, which is awesome because
Speaker 6: due in all seriousness like you do as well, like
Speaker 6: promo tours and going and you know, doing this, it's
Speaker 6: stressful and like, yeah, so I like actually having someone
Speaker 6: to hang and bounce off and do interviews with.
Speaker 5: Do you also just never know, Like when you do
Speaker 5: a collab, you just you know, you want the other
Speaker 5: artists you're collabbing with to love it and be as
Speaker 5: invested in and passionate about the success of the song,
Speaker 5: yeah as the other And sometimes that's not the case.
Speaker 4: And this has just fell.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I did a thing with two chains. I've done
Speaker 6: all all these different collabs where they're just like here,
Speaker 6: it's just playing my feet. I don't care, and they'll
Speaker 6: never they'll never like be invested in the song, like lesson.

Speaker 3: Sitting you with bunnies on and just milk chocolate melted
Speaker 3: on her hands. You look insane.
Speaker 1: I'm eating it now. I don't care. All right.
Speaker 3: Next on the show, we continue our investigation into the
Speaker 3: bunk ban.
Speaker 2: Okay, we talked about this on Monday and also on Tuesday,
Speaker 2: and it's truly taken over the show that there has
Speaker 2: been a bonk band at the Olympics up until this year.
Speaker 1: So the Olympics this year it's.
Speaker 2: Been abolished, and then three hundred thousand condoms have been
Speaker 2: unleashed issued into the Olympic village and we well, we
Speaker 2: had Liby trickered on yesterday, and now we have another Olympian, yeah,
Speaker 2: who is joining us to weigh in on the situation.
Speaker 3: We'll get them on the show next on the pickup. So,
Speaker 3: if you were listening to our show Monday, laws we
Speaker 3: were discussing the bunk band that the Olympics put in
Speaker 3: place during the COVID era Olympics.
Speaker 2: Oh, I mean, if you missed it, we're hitting all
Speaker 2: the hard topics so apparently so hard, but yeah, you would.
Speaker 1: Say, hi, I wi Okay.
Speaker 2: So during COVID, apparently with the Olympics, they brought in
Speaker 2: this thing called the bunk band to keep which makes
Speaker 2: sense right. It was to keep all the athletes part,
Speaker 2: so they weren't getting it on down in hanky pank attack.
Speaker 3: And getting COVID right, That's why they stopped doing it.
Speaker 3: They didn't want everyone to get sick.
Speaker 1: I mean it's very thoughtful.
Speaker 2: But this year the Olympics is back, it's in Paris,
Speaker 2: and the bonk band is no more. But not only
Speaker 2: is it no more, they have now unleashed three hundred
Speaker 2: thousand condoms into the Olympic village. And my question was
Speaker 2: how much is going down?
Speaker 3: Correct? So if this let's get an Olympian on we
Speaker 3: did I think we might have gone wrong because we
Speaker 3: got was wholesome Olympian. We could think of, We've got
Speaker 3: Libby trick At Australian champion swimmer. She's got gold, silver.
Speaker 2: Medal, it's incredible, she's got four kids. She had strong
Speaker 2: feelings around just around how hope should we say it?
Speaker 1: Just how freaky the Olympians are getting in the Olympic village?
Speaker 3: Yeah, this was she had to say.
Speaker 7: Just imagine like everyone is of peak physical fitness, they
Speaker 7: are amped up on emotion and anticipation.
Speaker 1: Is there one sport that really stands out?
Speaker 7: I have to say that the swimmers would have to
Speaker 7: be up there. I mean we are halfnood most of
Speaker 7: the time.
Speaker 3: So yeah, that was her on Monday Show. She threw
Speaker 3: shade at the swimmers specifically as the as the athletes
Speaker 3: that get on with the most bunking in the Olympics village.
Speaker 2: I don't think it was just a swimmers though, it
Speaker 2: was specifically the male swimmers.
Speaker 3: Now the pot thickens.
Speaker 2: It does, and in our investigation on the Great Bonk
Speaker 2: Band of the Olympic Games, it is. It's a great
Speaker 2: on the deep don't grow hard bonk band.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: So I'm friends with James James Magnusutt.
Speaker 3: Close friends up.
Speaker 2: James did Dancing with the Stars with me, and I
Speaker 2: wanted to know his opinion on this. He's an Olympian,
Speaker 2: He's a gold, silver and bronze winner. He was at
Speaker 2: the twenty twelve Olympics, also the twenty sixteen Olympics, and
Speaker 2: I think he has some conflicting feelings to what Libby
Speaker 2: trick it has.
Speaker 3: Welcome to the show, James, the bunk Band mystery thickens.
Speaker 3: Do you have any answers for James?
Speaker 4: Hi?
Speaker 8: Jack, are you saying you got the most wholesome person
Speaker 8: on in Libby and then you wanted to follow up
Speaker 8: with me.
Speaker 2: No, I just wanted someone to set the records straight.
Speaker 2: But if you want to call yourself that, that's fine.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 8: Look, I think the male swimmers over the years two things. Firstly, swimming,
Speaker 8: we finished first, so we've got a week of competition,
Speaker 8: then a week to let it down.
Speaker 1: Sorry, James, you can't say finish amazing.
Speaker 8: God, all right, we want to talk about the length
Speaker 8: of our events or anything like that.
Speaker 1: That's not a friend, is it.
Speaker 3: It's more of a marathon.
Speaker 8: Hopefully some of us don't last more than a minute
Speaker 8: in the pool. So but with that way, you will
Speaker 8: just on the bonk band. So yeah, Tims, they are
Speaker 8: a little notorious, I guess, but on the bonk Beand
Speaker 8: the way they went about that was by making cardboard
Speaker 8: beds in the Olympic village in Tokyo, so that if
Speaker 8: they had the weight of more than one person on them,
Speaker 8: they would break.
Speaker 1: That is so stupid if you were heavy, boy or girl.
Speaker 8: What I don't think they are factoring in is the
Speaker 8: fact that this is a village full of elite athletes.
Speaker 8: They don't need beds. They'll find a way.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they'll do handstands? Can't? They don't care?
Speaker 3: Okay, So James, to answer us truthfully, two questions for you.
Speaker 3: Was it something that you were actually briefed on by
Speaker 3: the Australian Olympic Committee. Did they say, hey, this is
Speaker 3: the bunk bag, it's in place, and did everyone follow
Speaker 3: the rules?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 8: I wasn't at Tokyo, but the bonking in the Olympic
Speaker 8: village was never really spoken about. There was at both
Speaker 8: Olympics I was at. There was heaps of condoms provided
Speaker 8: in like the common areas, which I never really quite understood,
Speaker 8: Like what just because where athletes doesn't mean we can
Speaker 8: buy condoms. I don't really understand why they're treating it
Speaker 8: like a school camp and giving condoms for safe dext
Speaker 8: all the little kids.
Speaker 2: I don't think that's happening at school camp, James. I
Speaker 2: think I think quite the opposite. They're trying to stop
Speaker 2: that from happening at school camp.
Speaker 8: My school camp.
Speaker 2: Then I imagining going into the halls where they're having
Speaker 2: lunch and breakfasts and stuff, there's just bowls at the front.
Speaker 8: Oh my god, it's literally like that. You walk into
Speaker 8: the food hall and there's big bowls like.
Speaker 1: What is going on.
Speaker 3: They must have done studies or something to show that
Speaker 3: athletes are full of you know, estrogen and testosteron, so
Speaker 3: they need to get it all out like otherwise it
Speaker 3: doesn't seem to make sense.
Speaker 2: Wait, now I have a question, James. Do you think
Speaker 2: it's because so so many athletes will abstain before competing
Speaker 2: because it, you know, apparently there's like some theory that
Speaker 2: it makes you stronger, faster, more focused. And then once
Speaker 2: they've finished their race, they're like, wow, that girl from
Speaker 2: you know, Tokyo looks pretty good.
Speaker 1: Totally like, how does that work?
Speaker 8: Yeah, potentially, I guess so. I guess it's probably just
Speaker 8: it's the biggest gathering of like young fit people in
Speaker 8: one place. It's that's probably the biggest factor. But look,
Speaker 8: I think some of the tall tales are may be
Speaker 8: a bit above and beyond what goes on in the village.
Speaker 8: There are people there that are concentrating more on competing.
Speaker 8: There's certainly some people that treat it as like a
Speaker 8: European vacation, so.
Speaker 3: The managers that's how it works. James Magizine, congrats on
Speaker 3: all the sporting success. You're a legend. Thanks for solving
Speaker 3: the bunk man.
Speaker 8: Thanks guys, soon.
Speaker 3: What a good man out there. We getting Laura. We
Speaker 3: need to conduct Ali Langdon because this needs to go
Speaker 3: on a Current Affairs sixty minutes sixty minutes. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: someone needs to cry about it all right. Next on
Speaker 3: the show, everyone, we have a moment with our beautiful
Speaker 3: Brittany Hockley. She's in the jungle for harmasalab she is.
Speaker 2: But also what you guys might not know is that
Speaker 2: we're getting exclusive access on the Pickup to some of
Speaker 2: the behind the scenes moments, So some interviews, some conversations
Speaker 2: that haven't made it onto the TV show, but they
Speaker 2: will be exclusively aired here.
Speaker 1: On the Pickup with our very own Brit.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and today Brit speaks to the comedian Stephen Amos
Speaker 3: about racism in the comedy world, which is going to
Speaker 3: be an interesting never before her chat.
Speaker 2: After this, Now, you guys might have known, but one
Speaker 2: very important person has been missing from this show, and
Speaker 2: that is Brittany Hockley. Yes, because she is away. She's
Speaker 2: doing I'm a Celebrity, Get Me out of Here. And
Speaker 2: we have been watching every episode trying to get you
Speaker 2: guys to vote. But also part of the conditions of
Speaker 2: her going away and being on the show was that
Speaker 2: we are getting exclusive access to some of the content
Speaker 2: that has never been seen on the show. So she's
Speaker 2: been having conversations with other people, other celebrities in the campsite,
Speaker 2: conversations that haven't made it on the TV show that
Speaker 2: are exclusively going to be aired on the pick up.
Speaker 3: Yes, so you'll never see this or hear this anywhere
Speaker 3: else other than right here on the show.
Speaker 1: And we had that for you today.
Speaker 2: So Britt, over the last couple of days has spoken
Speaker 2: to Stephen k Amos. He's the he's the comedian who's
Speaker 2: on I'm a Celebrity. He's the British comedian.
Speaker 3: The royals love him.
Speaker 2: Oh and he's so f funny. But when he first
Speaker 2: came out, I was like, who is that guy? And
Speaker 2: then I went down a YouTube rabbit hole same and
Speaker 2: I have seen so much of his content.
Speaker 1: He's absolutely hilarious.
Speaker 2: But this little conversation, which is like a bit of
Speaker 2: a fly on the wall conversation between Britt and Stephen
Speaker 2: that happened over the last couple of days, is all
Speaker 2: around how he's dealt with his one when he has
Speaker 2: was getting into comedy and his comedy was flopping and
Speaker 2: he had an absolute shocker of trying to like imagine
Speaker 2: that getting up on stage telling jokes and it just
Speaker 2: absolutely falling the ass out of it.
Speaker 6: No.
Speaker 1: One last year.
Speaker 2: But also he talks about the racism that he's experienced,
Speaker 2: and I think that this is a really beautiful insight
Speaker 2: into who he is and how he got into the
Speaker 2: industry totally.
Speaker 3: And also as britt being the interviewer that she is,
Speaker 3: I think this is where she shines too. So Yeah,
Speaker 3: exclusive audio Brittany Hockley our very ome with Stephen k
Speaker 3: Amos in the Army of Celebrity. Get me out of
Speaker 3: here jungles.
Speaker 9: Bobby. That's part of the course, I think. I think
Speaker 9: in the earliest side of your career, you have to bomb.
Speaker 9: You have to know what it's like too.
Speaker 1: Is the most feeling in the world, do.
Speaker 3: You know what?
Speaker 9: It didn't affect me personally because I thought, what's the
Speaker 9: worst that can happen?
Speaker 1: People don't laugh, whatever, whatever.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm on a brain surgeon. If I don't do
Speaker 9: my job, probably if someone dies, you know, yeah, if
Speaker 9: they don't laugh tomorrow, then.
Speaker 1: Probably go home sad.
Speaker 2: Anyway, Yeah, I mean, that's a good way to think
Speaker 2: about it.
Speaker 1: You obviously have to have a bit of a thick.
Speaker 9: Skin, and you learn, you do learn. Among my earliest gigs,
Speaker 9: I remember I did. I was new radio. I did
Speaker 9: five minutes and not one single laugh and I was devastated.
Speaker 9: So I got very drunk. And as I'm walking home,
Speaker 9: I saw a little old lady walking towards me, right,
Speaker 9: And as she saw me, she clutched her bag like that,
Speaker 9: and I was like, oh yeah, So I went up
Speaker 9: to her and I took that handbag and I spent.
Speaker 4: Every door, right, so I shut her.
Speaker 9: Yeah, everybody's how you learn, It's how you learn, because
Speaker 9: she learned.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 9: One of the late one of the first ever late
Speaker 9: night shows in Edinburgh was at the place called the
Speaker 9: Guilded Balloon and it starts like one in the morning
Speaker 9: and the entire audience about four hundred a drunk. You know,
Speaker 9: you can't really do comedy to a drunk audience.
Speaker 4: The other one to join in or they just hate.
Speaker 9: Yeah, and they come up to you after and go
Speaker 9: hel how was it helped? You didn't I You don't know,
Speaker 9: because if you weren't there, there'd.
Speaker 1: Be a show totally.
Speaker 2: It's actually you like, shut up your comedy.
Speaker 1: Do you find it okay to make racist.
Speaker 3: Jokes about yourself because you're living it?
Speaker 1: Or do you steer away from it?
Speaker 9: So that's very interesting. I will I will never do
Speaker 9: a racist joke about myself. I will do a self
Speaker 9: deprecating joke about myself. Or I might tell a story
Speaker 9: about something somebody has.
Speaker 2: Said to me, like sort of what you just did
Speaker 2: where the lady was like, I crushed my bags.
Speaker 9: If I do it a show and there's ninety five
Speaker 9: percent white audience and I do jokes about being a
Speaker 9: black guy, I mean, how stupid would I look? That's ridiculous.
Speaker 9: I've got to empower myself because that's where I may.
Speaker 9: I'm the boss.
Speaker 3: Right there you go, what a good angle. You don't
Speaker 3: really think about that, right, racism in comedy. You think comedy,
Speaker 3: you think progressive. I do anyway. I think, well, the
Speaker 3: industry is accepting, right, it's a creative industry. But no,
Speaker 3: I mean interesting to hear that from Steven.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but also I mean just interesting to hear where
Speaker 2: his experience and how he turns racism into comedy himself
Speaker 2: as well. But also it's so nice just to hear
Speaker 2: our Britty and have her back on the show in
Speaker 2: some small way as well.
Speaker 3: She's so cring, do you know listen to do a
Speaker 3: bad joke? So bad jokes a bad in Africa?
Speaker 1: Can you imagine how she's going to stand up next
Speaker 1: to a comedian? Poor?
Speaker 3: Thanks, it's got no chair.
