Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome to Tony Jason Sam's Best show Moments podcast, the
- 0:05Speaker 1: very best of Coasts Feel Good Breakfast.
- 0:07Speaker 2: This week, we.
- 0:08Speaker 3: Need to talk about Matilda because it's finished. I'm sure
- 0:11Speaker 3: you're pleased to hear that it's done. But I've been
- 0:14Speaker 3: at evering the boys with it for the last few months,
- 0:16Speaker 3: and I think now that the two of you have
- 0:18Speaker 3: gone to the show, you understand the gravitas of how
- 0:21Speaker 3: it's consumed our lives for the past probably years since
- 0:24Speaker 3: the auditions.
- 0:25Speaker 4: Literally have no idea how Juliette has remembered not only
- 0:29Speaker 4: the songs, but the dialogue and around it. And then
- 0:32Speaker 4: when she got to the point where she started speaking
- 0:34Speaker 4: in Russian, I almost stood up and clapped. It's like,
- 0:38Speaker 4: because I'm you know, I have a mental capacity of
- 0:40Speaker 4: about seven things.
- 0:41Speaker 5: And she had learned a whole show.
- 0:43Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know how she did that. Can I
- 0:45Speaker 3: just say so, juliet she turned twelve last week, right,
- 0:48Speaker 3: And so it was a lot of pressure. There were
- 0:51Speaker 3: three Matilda's and they had to carry the show and
- 0:53Speaker 3: learn so much dialogue. And I just want to shout
- 0:56Speaker 3: out to the people and Invicargo because they've got Matilda
- 0:59Speaker 3: coming and they've just cast their show, and some friends
- 1:03Speaker 3: of ours their little daughter, Rhann and she's eight and
- 1:05Speaker 3: she's just been named as one of the Matilda's.
- 1:07Speaker 5: Whoa and wow, there's a lot.
- 1:10Speaker 3: And I'm going to help. I'm going to help the
- 1:12Speaker 3: mom get through it and give us some tips on
- 1:14Speaker 3: what to learn in what stage is because it's a
- 1:16Speaker 3: big responsibility. And I felt like it was big for
- 1:19Speaker 3: an eleven year old, for an eight year old, it's
- 1:20Speaker 3: going to be very, very huge, but also just one
- 1:24Speaker 3: of the greatest things you could do. Like I look
- 1:26Speaker 3: at what the cast did, the adults and the kids,
- 1:29Speaker 3: and I just think I was watching in awe because
- 1:32Speaker 3: I was on the sidelines, right, So I was sometimes
- 1:34Speaker 3: mother helping in the green room, making the cups of
- 1:36Speaker 3: tea and coffee, doing the dishes, bringing baking. In a
- 1:40Speaker 3: couple of nights, I was backstage helping film a bit
- 1:42Speaker 3: of their social media, and I was just in aw
- 1:45Speaker 3: what they do, because this is a whole group of
- 1:47Speaker 3: people that have day jobs. Right, So you've a deal
- 1:51Speaker 3: was a vet Chrissy, who plays Missus Wormwood. She is
- 1:54Speaker 3: a teacher at Auckland Dio. You've got people that actually
- 1:59Speaker 3: Rebecca here kid who planed played Miss Honey. She's about
- 2:02Speaker 3: to do the puppeteering for Coldplay when they come to
- 2:05Speaker 3: Almost She's a path here in her spared time, and
- 2:08Speaker 3: so she's staying in Auckland to do that. And I
- 2:10Speaker 3: just look at them, and they were all performing to
- 2:12Speaker 3: the highest level to eleven at night, and then a
- 2:14Speaker 3: lot of them getting up doing their day jobs and
- 2:16Speaker 3: then doing it all again, and they had to interact
- 2:19Speaker 3: with so many different people. And as a mum of
- 2:22Speaker 3: two kids that were in the cast, a nine and
- 2:23Speaker 3: eleven year old, You're just so thankful that they were
- 2:25Speaker 3: working with these amazing people. And I haven't even mentioned
- 2:28Speaker 3: the bands that do their thing, the people that put
- 2:31Speaker 3: on their wigs every night, the makeup, it's just the
- 2:34Speaker 3: production managers. It is mind blowing what it takes to
- 2:37Speaker 3: put on a show of that caliber.
- 2:38Speaker 4: What did it feel like when Juliet walked out on
- 2:40Speaker 4: the last on her last show, which we were at
- 2:42Speaker 4: on Saturday, and she got a standing ovation?
- 2:45Speaker 5: What was that like for you?
- 2:46Speaker 3: Honestly, I have been through the most rollercoaster of emotions
- 2:49Speaker 3: throughout this process. From the moment she had to audition
- 2:52Speaker 3: and got the role. It was just mind blowing. But
- 2:54Speaker 3: I could never have been prepared. First of all, for
- 2:57Speaker 3: the very first night she stepped out onto stage. I
- 2:59Speaker 3: was just for of like, dread, like please remember all
- 3:02Speaker 3: of your lines, absolute pride that she got to that point,
- 3:06Speaker 3: and then just bursting when she finished and she walked
- 3:08Speaker 3: out and the spotlight was on and people were hearing.
- 3:10Speaker 3: I've never experienced that as a parent, and I just
- 3:13Speaker 3: can't even put it into words. It's going to be
- 3:15Speaker 3: one of the great moments of my life.
- 3:17Speaker 5: I was seeing you at the intermission. I gave you hugging.
- 3:19Speaker 5: You must be so proud of me.
- 3:20Speaker 6: I'd heard a lot about the show, obviously from you
- 3:22Speaker 6: leading up to this, and you and your husband Matt,
- 3:24Speaker 6: you know, fearing the kids back and forth from rehearsals,
- 3:26Speaker 6: but then seeing it come together, and I've just seen
- 3:28Speaker 6: it for the first time that night, then seeing it
- 3:30Speaker 6: come together, and again at the end.
- 3:31Speaker 5: I'm hugging your sister afterwards as well.
- 3:34Speaker 6: Big that big, that moment, that standing ovation when she
- 3:36Speaker 6: steps out of the end, everyone's flapping and cheering for
- 3:38Speaker 6: the rest of the cast.
- 3:39Speaker 5: Then Matilda steps out.
- 3:40Speaker 3: I know, I get terary thinking about it now, and
- 3:44Speaker 3: I Also, I can't explain to you what it's like
- 3:46Speaker 3: to be a part of the journey. Everyone in that
- 3:49Speaker 3: cast made us as the parents, feel really welcome and
- 3:52Speaker 3: I feel like I know them like family members. Now
- 3:55Speaker 3: these are all the adults in the cast. It's such
- 3:57Speaker 3: a weird feeling. And so if you ever get the
- 3:58Speaker 3: opportunity to one go to one of these shows, be
- 4:01Speaker 3: part of it in any way, just grab it.
- 4:02Speaker 4: Yes, And like, what a life moment at twelve years
- 4:05Speaker 4: old to not only hold down a theater by singing
- 4:07Speaker 4: solo songs up on stage, but then to get that
- 4:10Speaker 4: standing ovation. And I compare that to mic I've been
- 4:12Speaker 4: in the know in media for twenty years and I
- 4:14Speaker 4: have never had a standing ovation.
- 4:16Speaker 5: Nine times out of ten. It's doing so exactly.
- 4:22Speaker 7: Yeah on that.
- 4:24Speaker 3: Ironically, today at nine o'clock, tickets go on sale for Priscilla,
- 4:28Speaker 3: which is the next show that G and T Productions
- 4:30Speaker 3: are doing next year. I want to get amongst it.
- 4:33Speaker 3: I'll still be there. I can't see my kids being
- 4:35Speaker 3: in there.

- 4:44Speaker 4: flusters over everything, and I want to take you back
- 4:47Speaker 4: to the secret sounds of Seattle quickly, because can I

- 5:28Speaker 4: back door, through all the secure and everything that will
- 5:30Speaker 4: bring mister Rizz sound here in just a second. And
- 5:35Speaker 4: so at this point, and I've got a ten minute
- 5:36Speaker 4: window to record the secret sound and do an interview
- 5:39Speaker 4: and film it. So I'm like mad panicing trying to

- 6:00Speaker 9: the magnet falls off the off the thing.
- 6:02Speaker 5: So I can't attach you to that.
- 6:04Speaker 4: So then I'm like trying to stick it onto mister
- 6:06Speaker 4: Z's hat with a clip, and then the microphone jammed,
- 6:10Speaker 4: so I was not getting a signal back to my camera.
- 6:13Speaker 2: How did that happen?
- 6:14Speaker 5: It's never happened.
- 6:17Speaker 4: Except when I had this ten minute when I had
- 6:19Speaker 4: the most important man in American baseball set there to go.
- 6:23Speaker 4: So I'm panicking. His assistant can see I'm panicking. He's like,

- 8:09Speaker 6: Yeah, what we do here is we have pizza in
- 8:12Speaker 6: New Zealand, and of course you know New York pizza
- 8:14Speaker 6: is something a little bit different. And when you'll hear
- 8:16Speaker 6: this big golden rule with the pizzas in there as
- 8:18Speaker 6: I did.
- 8:19Speaker 7: You know, I saw some folks here visiting with us
- 8:23Speaker 7: and saw some forks and knives. You don't see that
- 8:26Speaker 7: with New York pizza. You have to hold it. Doesn't
- 8:28Speaker 7: matter how big it is, doesn't matter how you know
- 8:31Speaker 7: running it is.
- 8:32Speaker 5: You hold it. You sold it.
- 8:34Speaker 7: Some people fold it, some people hold it with two hands.
- 8:37Speaker 7: But no forking. Nice, That's the only rule.
- 8:39Speaker 5: And you see that almost ruin the career of us.
- 8:42Speaker 7: There was there was a former mayor when he was running,
- 8:45Speaker 7: almost didn't get elected because it was quite the scandal
- 8:47Speaker 7: that he was found eating pizza with a forking.
- 8:50Speaker 3: You basically warned us and said, Okay, you haven't left
- 8:53Speaker 3: the hotel yet, but when you do, those.
- 8:55Speaker 7: Knives and walks down you don't want to be pointed
- 8:57Speaker 7: at in the middle of Maniac Now.
- 9:00Speaker 5: But here's so much more to this.

- 9:02Speaker 6: little while now, and you live a couple of hours
- 9:04Speaker 6: away from here, but you're still in New York.

- 11:05Speaker 7: You've got a lot of great Yeah. I grew up
- 11:08Speaker 7: in a place in New Zealand called horps By, and
- 11:09Speaker 7: we're famous. It's called the Fruit Balll of New Zealand,
- 11:11Speaker 7: the famous of the apples and everything. You're telling us
- 11:13Speaker 7: that there's some apple you have to try when you're.
- 11:15Speaker 5: In New York.
- 11:16Speaker 7: Well, the thing is the variety of apples here. And
- 11:19Speaker 7: you know, not everyone in New York is into apples,
- 11:21Speaker 7: but many of us are.
- 11:22Speaker 5: I am.
- 11:23Speaker 7: And if you do, you have your favorite. So I
- 11:27Speaker 7: love the Empire Apple. It's named We're called the Empire State.
- 11:30Speaker 7: So the Empire Apple is sort of sweet tart apple,
- 11:33Speaker 7: a little of both. The honey crisp is amazing, it's
- 11:36Speaker 7: on the sweet side. You're going to a wonderful place
- 11:39Speaker 7: called Beacon Skiff in the finger Legs, which is not
- 11:43Speaker 7: only a beautiful apple orchard, but also a distillery that
- 11:46Speaker 7: makes ooos from apples. You can't imagine.
- 11:52Speaker 3: I think a lot of what we're talking about here, right,
- 11:55Speaker 3: You've got New York, and I think Kywee's can be
- 11:57Speaker 3: we can be quite traditional when we travel, right, we
- 11:59Speaker 3: can go through iconic places and we are going to
- 12:01Speaker 3: do Broadway, We're going to do We're going to go
- 12:03Speaker 3: and see Tiffany's. We're going to go to Times Square.
- 12:05Speaker 3: But we want to inspire you for your nixt trip
- 12:08Speaker 3: to try and go a little bit further afield. And
- 12:10Speaker 3: that's why it's so good, because you can you can
- 12:13Speaker 3: do our whole trip and follow in our footsteps.
- 12:15Speaker 5: And it's easy, is the great thing about it.
- 12:17Speaker 7: Right, Even for your first time or at least your
- 12:20Speaker 7: second time, if you're in New York City, you could
- 12:22Speaker 7: just get on a train and go to the beach,
- 12:24Speaker 7: or you could go on the train to go up
- 12:25Speaker 7: to the Hudson Valley and see beautiful views of the
- 12:27Speaker 7: Hudson River. Then when you want to be more adventurous,
- 12:30Speaker 7: you could take the train north of the city, hire
- 12:32Speaker 7: a car, and then fan out around the rest of
- 12:34Speaker 7: the state. There's also short trips, plane trips, affordable sort
- 12:38Speaker 7: of basically almost commuter trips from New York City to
- 12:41Speaker 7: places like Buffalo and Syracuse and Rochester. So it's not
- 12:44Speaker 7: only that you can see those iconic places, because you should.
- 12:47Speaker 7: You've got to go to New York City, but you
- 12:49Speaker 7: can get to the rest pretty easily, easily easily.
- 12:51Speaker 5: You can give applot trip as well. You can book
- 12:52Speaker 5: the execs and you will adventure. Follow our footsteps with travel.

- 13:52Speaker 3: What are your thoughts on Long Island so far?

- 14:01Speaker 2: to get, you know, a true picture. I mean, we're
- 14:05Speaker 2: exploring more today, which I'm so excited about. But Long

- 16:00Speaker 2: I got there. I worked for Fortnham and Mason, So
- 16:02Speaker 2: there eighteen hundreds they beautiful foods from around the world.
- 16:09Speaker 2: And so I was working there and every day you
- 16:12Speaker 2: would see famous people, sports people, royals every day, and
- 16:18Speaker 2: so Keanu Reeves was in town and it was the
- 16:22Speaker 2: time of Matrix and my cousin had actually said to me,
- 16:26Speaker 2: if Pianu comes into the store, as everybody does, can
- 16:30Speaker 2: you please please please get his autograph? And I'm like,
- 16:33Speaker 2: he's not really meant to go up to people. But anyway,
- 16:36Speaker 2: he came in and he was walked past me and smiled,
- 16:41Speaker 2: and I just introduced myself, said if you need any help,
- 16:44Speaker 2: and I didn't want to get any trouble, but my
- 16:47Speaker 2: cousin had his pictures all over the wall, so he
- 16:49Speaker 2: walked me, said oh, come with me, and we kind
- 16:51Speaker 2: of walked to the back of the store and we
- 16:55Speaker 2: chatted for probably ten minutes. We laughed. He signed a
- 16:58Speaker 2: card and then he wrote something for me and he
- 17:01Speaker 2: put his arm on me and I could see all
- 17:04Speaker 2: my colleagues late looking at the side of the eye.
- 17:08Speaker 2: But when you're a key we in London, you know
- 17:10Speaker 2: you're a little bit ballsy.

- 18:07Speaker 6: the house, you might get it ready for summer coming soon.
- 18:09Speaker 5: You might have to catch up with some friends.
- 18:11Speaker 6: But if you're in New York where we are right now,
- 18:13Speaker 6: you might make your way of the Hampton's your holiday
- 18:15Speaker 6: home in the Hamptons.
- 18:16Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're getting ready for big holidays like Halloween.
- 18:19Speaker 3: Like everyone already has the pumpkins out now, like clusters
- 18:23Speaker 3: of pumpkins outside their door. That's even before they go
- 18:26Speaker 3: nuts with the decoration, that's right, and leading into Thanksgiving
- 18:28Speaker 3: as well. It's like pumpkin season. And last night saying
- 18:30Speaker 3: we're pumpkin beer.
- 18:32Speaker 4: Yeah we did it kind of reminded me of the
- 18:34Speaker 4: old Monty Summer ale. But it was roomed with a
- 18:37Speaker 4: beautiful like pumpkin syrup and cinnamon. But the beer was
- 18:40Speaker 4: actually infused with the flavor of pumpkin as well.
- 18:42Speaker 5: It was kind of subtle flavor.
- 18:43Speaker 2: It was delicious and apparently it's very popular.
- 18:45Speaker 3: While you guys were having that, I was going into
- 18:47Speaker 3: Starbucks because I felt like you had to, and I
- 18:50Speaker 3: got the most creamy caramely frappucino anyone could ever ask for.
- 18:54Speaker 6: Well, it wasn't just any Starbucks there, it was the
- 18:56Speaker 6: Starbucks in East Hampton, which is apparently where all the
- 18:58Speaker 6: celebrities hang out. Just a couple of minutes ago we
- 19:01Speaker 6: saw that Billy Joel is selling his Hampden's house for
- 19:04Speaker 6: fifty million dollars.
- 19:06Speaker 3: Outrageous And I understand why they're fifty million dollars too,
- 19:10Speaker 3: because I don't know what I thought about the Hamptons
- 19:12Speaker 3: from you know what I envisaged.
- 19:14Speaker 2: But I thought it would be more coastal vibes. It
- 19:17Speaker 2: actually feels like if you've ever.
- 19:18Speaker 3: Been north of Auckland and when you head towards Mattakana
- 19:22Speaker 3: and Omaha, it feels like that kind of village vibe
- 19:25Speaker 3: with lots and lots of greenery, lots.
- 19:27Speaker 5: Of also Arrowtown maybe a little bit too.
- 19:30Speaker 4: It's got all those fives and it's got all the
- 19:32Speaker 4: international players in terms of the shops.
- 19:34Speaker 2: Doesn't it like a.
- 19:35Speaker 3: Marni village feel? Though?
- 19:37Speaker 7: Yeah?
- 19:38Speaker 3: Feel densely populated.
- 19:40Speaker 4: And one of the styles that's kind of really run
- 19:41Speaker 4: through the population is the style of wherever you go,
- 19:44Speaker 4: you have to look like you're you're famous and in disguise.
- 19:47Speaker 2: So everyone walks around with hats on and glasses.
- 19:50Speaker 3: Where the sunny's inside? Everyone does keep going. Are they famous? No,
- 19:54Speaker 3: they're just wearing faces pretending to be famous. Maybe they
- 19:57Speaker 3: are in the Hamptons, we don't know.
- 19:58Speaker 6: Every car that drove passes, there's one in there was
- 20:01Speaker 6: a famous someone anyway, So a couple of minutes ago,
- 20:03Speaker 6: Billy Joel has just lifted his house fifteen million dollars
- 20:06Speaker 6: in the Hampton's nothing compared to some of the ones
- 20:08Speaker 6: we saw though, not.
- 20:09Speaker 2: That that house that was worth what.
- 20:11Speaker 5: Eighty nine million US dollars.
- 20:15Speaker 3: And we went and looked at it because it was
- 20:16Speaker 3: just sitting like it was just listed on the main
- 20:19Speaker 3: street in the window, eighty nine million dollars. Anyone won it? Yeah,
- 20:23Speaker 3: was surprised that wouldn't happen in New Zealand. No one
- 20:25Speaker 3: would list a house for eighty nine million and will
- 20:27Speaker 3: be private and undercovered.
- 20:28Speaker 5: We have price on application appointment. Yeah, So we looked
- 20:32Speaker 5: at this with Ako so who could have fought a
- 20:34Speaker 5: house like this?
- 20:34Speaker 2: Right?
- 20:34Speaker 6: So I looked at some of the highest paid actors
- 20:36Speaker 6: from last year. All right, So last year third highest
- 20:39Speaker 6: paid actor last year, Tom Cruise, he made forty five
- 20:42Speaker 6: million dollars last year.
- 20:43Speaker 3: God for the house, Tom, Well, he's probably done that
- 20:45Speaker 3: over a few years, all right.
- 20:47Speaker 5: Was just based on last year's earnings.
- 20:49Speaker 6: Margot Robbie made fifty nine million dollars last year. Sure
- 20:52Speaker 6: she could buy Billy Joel's house, but she can't buy
- 20:54Speaker 6: this one.
- 20:55Speaker 3: No, And the eighty nine million dollar house, when we
- 20:57Speaker 3: looked at it, it was basically a whole coastline. Yeah, the
- 21:00Speaker 3: house was planted on the code.
- 21:02Speaker 5: Be honest, and maybe I'm a small but the house
- 21:03Speaker 5: did look their flash. I don't think.
- 21:05Speaker 3: Well, do you know what compared to Auckland prices? Honestly,
- 21:10Speaker 3: I know. Adam Sandvier was last year's highest paid actor.
- 21:14Speaker 3: He only made only seventy three million dollars last year.
- 21:17Speaker 3: So this is more than any actor made last year
- 21:20Speaker 3: for this one house. I'll tell you what though, the
- 21:21Speaker 3: eighty nine million dollar house. Do you know what has
- 21:23Speaker 3: excited us the single most since we've been in New York,
- 21:27Speaker 3: and that has been the pumpkin patches. Everywhere we have driven,
- 21:31Speaker 3: we've got oh my.
- 21:32Speaker 5: Gosh, look at the pumpkins.
- 21:33Speaker 3: Fields are so orange dust, so large, and we've decided
- 21:36Speaker 3: we need them in New Zealand. We don't know how.
- 21:38Speaker 4: Why do we not grow giant pumpkins like pumpkins that
- 21:40Speaker 4: are so big you can't pick up?
- 21:42Speaker 3: Why do we I tried to I squatted a pumpkin,
- 21:45Speaker 3: didn't I? Did you see me squat that pumpkin? You
- 21:47Speaker 3: filmed me squatted?
- 21:48Speaker 5: That's we've seen as to say, please stop calling up pump.
- 21:56Speaker 6: We're big with the pumpkin blaze. And later tonight you're
