1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Job mission with Jonesy and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 2: Sas had as glued to the TV. Our sphinters were

3
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 2: a little tight watching it because it was so difficult.

4
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 2: We spoke to Sam Burgess about how he crawled through

5
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 2: that tiny tube with a dislocated shoulder. It just I

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 2: was claustrophobic even just talking to him.

7
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,439
Speaker 1: I was reading the newspaper on the weekend about that

8
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: because Sam took so long in that pipe that other

9
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:26,120
Speaker 1: people like Manufodel couldn't go into the pipe and they're

10
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: all outraged.

11
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 3: That sheering'll take the time in there. Sam.

12
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 2: This week hell week where every day so called Everyday

13
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 2: Australians take on the SAS course. So that's on Telly tonight.

14
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 2: But Merrick Watts was one of the only three who

15
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 2: passed the very first season. He has a podcast called

16
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: SAS Australed Debrief he does with with Sabrina Frederick, who

17
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 2: also passed that first She.

18
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 3: Took on Nick the honey Badger Cummings in a fistfight.

19
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, Well, I mean there's a lot to discuss.

20
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 2: So they drill down on all of this in their

21
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 2: podcast and Merrick joins us. Now, Hello, Mark, how are

22
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: you good.

23
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 4: Morning, and I'm great to be speaking to, but I've

24
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,320
Speaker 4: got to be honest with you. I just was listening

25
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 4: to your conversation earlier about Jones's desires to be on

26
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 4: Home and Away, and unfortunately, Jonesy, I have to say

27
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,639
Speaker 4: that your acting abilities will keep you safely within radio

28
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 4: for the next day game.

29
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 3: Well, how do you know you haven't seen me act?

30
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 3: You come in here here where we need to act.

31
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 4: There's a reason for that, Jonesy. There's a reason we

32
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 4: haven't seen you act. So you's the reason why we

33
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 4: haven't seen me baked cakes on television's You're wrecking.

34
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: A Little boys dream, Mary, So you and Amanda are

35
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 1: now against me.

36
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 2: I'm open to it, Brendan. I need the laugh. So Marek,

37
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 2: how did you feel watching the follow up season to yours?

38
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 2: Did you get some post traumatic stress?

39
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 4: I look, to be honest. For the first like kind

40
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 4: of half an hour watching the first episode, I was like, oh, wow,

41
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 4: this is all kind of flooding back. But after a

42
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 4: little while, just kind of like everybody else just got

43
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 4: kind of taken away by you could see for exactly

44
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 4: what is which is a television show where people are

45
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 4: just getting smashed and doing their very best. So yeah,

46
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 4: to be honest, at the start, it was a bit weird,

47
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 4: but then I was like completely engrossed in it and

48
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 4: I loved it. I loved the last season. I thought

49
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 4: it was great.

50
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 3: Do you think this is harder than your season?

51
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 4: No? I din't. I thought that the second second season

52
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 4: the Celebrities was not as hard as our purely because

53
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 4: we were in really really cold conditions, like freezing temperatures.

54
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 4: And I think that it can't be underestimated how much

55
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 4: of a difference that makes. But you know, full credit

56
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 4: to the people who went on it, particularly people like

57
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 4: Yan and Pittman back from having a child. I know Yan,

58
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 4: and I was like that I had no doubt that

59
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 4: she would go a long way in that show. But

60
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 4: she was just a weapon. So I look it on.

61
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 3: Them and you didn't wet your pants?

62
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 4: No, well I did, but I just didn't talk about it.

63
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 3: That's the difference, SLF.

64
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: And with the training and everything, I mean, what advice

65
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 2: would you give to people who were contemplating this, whether

66
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 2: they're the celebrities or people going through a hell week.

67
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 2: It's a lot of training before you even start train harder.

68
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 4: I would say I've said, look will be honestly, I

69
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 4: have seen the first episode of Hell Week and it

70
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 4: is awesome. I was really impressed by It's great. I

71
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 4: love seeing everyday people with their reasons coming along for

72
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 4: why they want to do it, and some of them

73
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 4: are absolute weapons. But some of them they just go,

74
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 4: I don't reckon that you've done enough training for this,

75
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 4: or it's like there's a couple of people where you

76
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 4: just go, I think it might have thought that you

77
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 4: were signing up to another show. This is not I'm

78
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 4: a celebrity, get me out of here. But you know,

79
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 4: it's great viewing. Like the Hell Week version that starts tonight.

80
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 4: The first episode is really kind of brutal from the

81
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 4: get go. I actually reckon their first day on the

82
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 4: course is harder than the celebrity version.

83
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: One of the contestants is a dating coach. What even

84
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 2: is that?

85
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 4: I don't know. That's a very divided that was a job.

86
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 4: I thought that was a friend exactly. I don't know.

87
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 4: I mean when you hear the term dating coaching essay

88
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 4: is Australia, you do start to think again, if you sat,

89
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 4: do you think you're exactly exactly? So you know, people

90
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 4: This is a great thing about about Essays Australia that

91
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 4: people can surprise, you know, people that you don't expect

92
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 4: to be strong, or sometimes when you expect people to

93
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 4: be real weapons and they're not, you don't know, it

94
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 4: kind of reveals their true character.

95
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 3: Well that's how I ended up on the Real four monthy.

96
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 3: I thought I was going for another show. Next minute,

97
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 3: I show where you actually were. I'm looking at the

98
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 3: same Sam Mack's junk. He got on Home and Away

99
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 3: with the Outgos and on that.

100
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 4: He was amazing on that too.

106
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 4: just say he could play any role. He could play

107
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 4: any he could play Alf's husband, he could play Alf's son.

108
