1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: Tipping Point has been an absolute runaway success, has it

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: notation it is on There is a special edition coming

3
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 1: up tomorrow night on nine at seven thirty, a prime

4
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: time Tipping Point because it's a Travel GUIDs version and

5
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 1: to talk us through it, the host himself, Todd Woodbridge,

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: Good morning, Todd, Welcome.

7
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,799
Speaker 2: Good morning pleasuly so thanks for having me on. Yeah.

8
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 2: Can you imagine a crossover between Tipping Point and Travel Guides.

9
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 2: It talk about being a host trying to pull three

10
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 2: different teams together. We're an individual show and all of

11
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 2: a sudden we're a team show, and I can tell

12
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 2: you that causes some chaos.

13
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: Of herding cats, a bit like that.

14
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely absolutely. When you're pulling the boys together, got keV,

15
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 2: Tang and Dorian and they're trying to make a decision

16
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 2: in a head to head round and there's some classic

17
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 2: you could call it comedy. They don't mean it to

18
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 2: be to me, it just comes out. It's so funny.

19
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 3: It's like the show.

20
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,119
Speaker 1: I've seen them trying to make a decision about, you know, which,

21
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: which extra curricular thing they're going to do on a trip,

22
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: So I can only imagine what they're like on Tipping Points.

23
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's it's it's a really fun episode.

24
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 2: We've got to Kevin and Janetta, we've got Matt and Brett,

25
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 2: and we've got the boys. And as I say, when

26
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 2: you've got all these people up on the podium, it

27
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 2: gets quite busy. But it's played for charity. Yeah, we're

28
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,839
Speaker 2: playing for forty thousand dollars three hundred dollars a counter

29
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 2: and and it really is a lot of fun. I

30
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: was worn out by the end of filming.

31
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 3: It's a different episode for you. It's a it's pretty

32
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 3: full on, but I guess you've got charity in the

33
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 3: back of your mind, so it's it's all good.

34
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it takes. It took twice as long as

35
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 2: a regularly. That was because I had to keep coming

36
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 2: back to them saying, hey, listen, I need to ask

37
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 2: you another question. Could you focus?

38
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you don't want the show to go to

39
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 3: four and a half hours?

40
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, No, that is true. Have to bring it

41
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 2: to success, Yes, Tennis into it, but that the success

42
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: of it has been incredible when you think about the

43
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 2: fact that we're throwing an episode into prime time. So

44
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 2: I've got to say a big thank you to all

45
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,760

Speaker 3: Some buck, hang out with Todd like you at a

53
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,119
Speaker 3: bit as success too.

54
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 2: Todd. Well, it's hard to pinpoint, but one of the

55
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 2: things that I'm hearing when you're out about and you're

56
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: talking to people, they come up to and they say,

57
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: we love your show. But it's originally you think quiz shows,

58
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: you know, pre news. It's it's sort of you know,

59
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 2: retirement villagers and like it's not it's not over, No,

60
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 2: it's crossed over into kids sitting in high cares, parents,

61
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: you know, putting them there and feeding them because it's

62
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 2: got the tinkled tinkle of the sounds of the counters

63
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 2: falling over the tipping point. It's got the quiz so

64
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: you know, primary school kids are getting involved in that.

65
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: They're listening, they're learning, and the whole family is sitting

66
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 2: down to watch and yeah, I suppose, I suppose, you know,

67
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 2: in a time when we've had a ton of reality

68
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 2: shows where you know, if you've got young kids, you've

69
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,839
Speaker 2: either got to put ear mups on them or cover

70
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 2: their eyes. This is not like that. This is actually wholehearted,

71
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: good entertainment, light fun and it's about everyday people having

72
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 2: that opportunity to sign up, get in, win, maybe win

73
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 2: some dollars, but at the same time have a good

74
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 2: time with it all. And that's been something that I

75
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: really enjoyed it and I think that's where, you know,

76
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 2: my my travel, talking to people, all the stuff that

77
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: I like to do is sort of come across as

78
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 2: the host. Yeah.

79
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: Absolutely, well, meantime, you can take the boy out of tennis.

80
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: You can't take the tennis out of the boy. You

81
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: are commentating the French Open.

82
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, to do my other job as well, the one

83
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 2: that I know a bit more about it. And of

84
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 2: course and of course the Rolling Garos is underway. We're

85
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 2: on air with nine GM each evening highlighting the Aussie

86
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: sixteen OSSI is in the main door. We did have

87
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 2: a great start to the tournament on day one with

88
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 2: a few Oussis, destiney Iava and Rinky Hitchikata going out.

89
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 2: But look, we've got Alex Kimonov who's been playing brilliant.

90
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 2: He's ranked nine in the world, top ten player. I

91
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 2: don't know if you saw my joint nineteen years of age,

92
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: one of first WTA tournament just last week and has

93
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: own almost three hundred places up. The ranking will be

94
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 2: just outside the top fifty. A name and a young

95
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 2: name will be watching so brilliant, But I guess it

96
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 2: all comes down to will it be Carlos, will it

97
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 2: be Yannick? In the men's singles Alcaraz and Sinner and

98
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 2: Saberlenka goes in his favorite on the women. So there's

99
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: a lot to unfold in the second major of the year,

100
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 2: which is just getting started. We don't know the stories yet.

101
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 3: Todd, does it feel weird seeing all that play and

102
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 3: not seeing Rafa there after all those he is?

103
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 2: It? Does? I'll tell you what though, There was a

104
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 2: fantastic tribute to him after day one, fifteen thousand people

105
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 2: in the center court all were given a red clay

106
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 2: colored T shirt. They all donned it, and then there

107
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 2: was this massive, massive tribute. He came out, spoke to

108
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 2: the crowd, and then you had Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic

109
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 2: and Andy Murray all come out to greet him on

110
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 2: the court. So the big four of that era, only

111
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 2: one of them left playing. Of course, that's Djokovic is

112
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 2: still trying to see whether he can win another major.

113
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 2: That was a really special moment. Can you imagine winning

114
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 2: anything fourteen times that tournament? Extraordinary player.

115
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: The game will really miss him now. People can catch

116
