the movies and what he'd do if they The gay
stuff came out basically.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
True.

Speaker 4 (17:08):
Well, I'm glad about this one. Snoop Dogg has apologized
for his offensive comments that he made about same sex parents.
This is a couple of weeks ago when he was
talking about how he would be scared if he was
at the movies with his grandkids and they asked about
same sex marriage and what, you know, what would he say? Anyway,

(17:31):
he said, I was caught off guy by the person
that was interviewing me.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
I had no answer to my grandson. All my gay friends,
you know, they know me.

Speaker 4 (17:38):
They know I would never say anything that would be
doroga tree and things like that. So he has come
out and said sorry. Then there's rooms swelling around that.
Maybe EM and M is standing in the wings.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Absolutely. I don't think who's got a backup headliner? Yeah,
not a backup headlin. Why are they going with rappers
and stuff?

Speaker 4 (17:54):
Why are they doing like big like you know, Foo
Fighter kind of stuff, powder Finger.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
If you get reunited, be huge, that would be massive. Yeah,
it's just I don't think an old thing rocky bands
around the country at that time of the Now. I
love this story.

Speaker 6 (18:11):
I do love some royal Netflix Shenanigan.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Tell me there's more with love Meghan. There's more.

Speaker 6 (18:18):
Yeah, no, I'm won't talking about that.

Speaker 4 (18:20):
So yesterday was a twenty eighth anniversary of Princess Die.
We all remember where we were when we found.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
Out she died.

Speaker 4 (18:27):
Rumors are going now that Prince Harry is planning a
Netflix doto on his mum. So this is going to
cause a little bit of even more of a few
between him and his brother Prince William, because they made
a pact years ago that they would never profit off
the mother's death.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Whereas now Harry is like, well, I'm irrelevant.

Speaker 6 (18:47):
I need to remain relevant exactly.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
My darling wife's got such a beautiful Netflix so well,
it's about time I had a Netflix show.

Speaker 4 (18:56):
And there's more like conspiracy theories going around as well
about how she died. That she apparently this is another
rumor that she was murdered, but not by the Royals,
by secret group of high profile Brits who wanted her
to be disassociated with the royal family.

Speaker 12 (19:10):
That's good, I like that.

Speaker 1 (19:11):
Twenty eight years later we've still got new conspiracy theory.
It is a whole weird thing though, the way that
she does, the way she died. You know, people have.

Speaker 6 (19:20):
Crossed yeah, I know, I know, but it was just
a weird. She was just a perfect person, that person.

Speaker 12 (19:24):
I believe that she was only thirty five.

Speaker 4 (19:26):
Isn't that weird because she looks like she was fifty
only because of her haircut, her hair. He wouldn't have
a haircut these days. In fact, she's the only person.
Can you imagine if I had that haircut?

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Yeah, you'd look like a seventy five year old woman.
It's kind of like you, but grown out. In about
four more, four more weeks, I could get a princess die,
I reckon, Yeah, you're a princess die.

Speaker 4 (19:45):
If you if you would have like blow dry your
hair up a little bit, you've.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
Got princess dyed. She's got better pins than I do.

Speaker 6 (19:54):
She does Magda Sgabanski. I can never say her name.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
I just love. I just call her mad because she's
like Madonna to me.

Speaker 4 (20:02):
She has delivered the most amazing, heartfelt message to a
young South Australian fan from her hospital bed. Annabella Wills
of Wakeery Primary School shout out to Wakerey Primary School

Speaker 1 (20:17):
She's got the netball beer bonds, he's got the red
hair she's got, the little she is exactly like her.

Speaker 6 (20:24):
It is amazing.

Speaker 4 (20:25):
You got to see the photo and it made its
way to Magda in her hospital bed and she had
this to say.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
Oh there, well, this is.

thing to do. Thank you, my sweet lots of love
tea and lots of love tea or how.

Speaker 1 (20:55):
Nice is that she's in her hospital bed and she
does that video. That's so beautiful.

Speaker 4 (20:58):
The family of Anabella were crying when they saw that video,
as you would. They were just so touched that she
did that for their daughter.

Speaker 3 (21:04):
All right, Agda, we were your dad to win a
brand new barbecue for Father's Day. It's this Sunday, and
you've got to register for Who's Your Daddy at mixed
one and two three dot com.

Speaker 9 (21:12):
That are you?

Speaker 12 (21:13):
The very first clue is coming up next.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
This is a very easy thing to do. You have
no excuse not to do it. I haven't got my
dad a gift for Farles Day yet. Jump on there,
take a few boxes, you say a few things about
your dad, and then we're going to give you like
the best prize you're going to be able to give
you that. We're excited to go to the Haunted House.
Oh yes, we are.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
I I got to go to your Haunted House last year,
and I gotta say I was so nervous to go in,
and then I thought, nah, do you know what this
is going to be?

Speaker 1 (21:46):
I bet you anything it will be lame. Like I
was going to go like it's either going to be
really good or it's going to be lame, thinking it's
like a ghost train or whatever. Yeah, but it's full on.
It's just really good.

Speaker 6 (21:56):
You get chased out with a man.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
With a chain story, don't give it away, chain saw,
you did that chain store, don't give it.

Speaker 6 (22:03):
Away, I corrected myself.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
If it was my Haunted house, it'd be me walking
in and Hailey mispronouncing things. We want to give you
a little taste of what this is like. If you're
heading along to the show and you can scare the
pants off of Mum, Dad, kids, whoever you want to
send in there. We walked through it last year. Hailey

(22:26):
lost her mind.

Speaker 12 (23:04):
It's so hot.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
Yeah, oh my god, I'm so hot. Was what you
said as you ran out of the horn.

Speaker 6 (23:08):
Oh I was sweating, okad it.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
So what we're going to do this year. What we're
going to do this year is because the Haunted House
is gets bigger and better every single year, we're going
to take through every single day, some big names, some
Adelaide big names. Rebecca Mors is going to go through there.
She's going to have a ball.

Speaker 6 (23:27):
You know who I'm excited about going Robbie and Matt
from the Block.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
I'm excited for you to take ben Keys from the
Crows save. I've got my crow scarf beas he's going
through there. Lily from the Voice, Smassy from the Newsroom,
the biggest celebrity in all of Adelaide, Maria and Bailey
from My Kitchen Rules. They're all going to come through
ad Lady Lauren.

Speaker 4 (23:44):
Lady Laura's going to be amazing because she hates being scared,
and with them.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
All, we're going to do this elastic that's good truth
or scared. Oh my god, it's scary in really scary.
Who did that?

Speaker 8 (24:04):
Who?

Speaker 1 (24:04):
Foroy? Is that? That's our audio guy, my god haunted
though zombie audio guy.

Speaker 4 (24:09):
So we're going to ask our celebrities a a pretty
sticky question and they have to answer it while we're
walking through.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
Yeah, and it's going to be made all the better
by the fact that there is a blake with a
chainsaw in there.

Speaker 11 (24:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
Yeah, there's that new Neon room. There's a clown that
follows you around with the face paint. No one likes
clowns driven down his face. This is actually all that
music there.

Speaker 4 (24:34):
It's the happy clown music that gets me. So we're
doing this today. We're meeting our first celebrity today. If
you're at the show, come and say hi.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
Come and come. In fact, we'll take you through. We're
not just about celebrities, like anyone through. We'll go through
with you. We're going to be there today about No. Ten,
nine thirty. At some stage in my calendar, look out
for Haley Max at the show and Haleum Max's hornted
house and you could get a little free trip through
there if you're lucky.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
Coming up next Wall of Truth, Haley Pearson, would you
bounce back if your husband cheated on you.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
It's a really disgusting question. Save it for the Wall
of Cheap Daily hand Maxes.

Speaker 11 (25:16):
Yes, a world famous all all, all.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
Right, Haley Peerson's in the Wall of Truth today. She
gets a question. She has to answer it truthfully. No
two puts, but two butts about it. Now, there's been
a message bouncing around in our little WhatsApp group chat here,
and it's a screenshot. It's from Instagram. I don't know
that it's a fully scientific account. One in three men cheat,
according to this. Yeah, they've cited some studies they reckon

(25:50):
twenty percent of married men admit to cheating. Then there's
relationships outside of marriage, and they've done a little bit
of accounting, accounting for underreporting. So I'm not sure that
it's true. As a bloke old offenders, but hey, a
lot of blokes cheat. So Haley, my question to you is,
what would you do if you found out that Jimmy

(26:11):
had cheated on you. It's such a disgusting question, isn't it.

Speaker 5 (26:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (26:16):
It brings up so many like insecurities and things like that.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
But it's a question that a lot of people have
to go through and they have to face in their
own lives.

Speaker 4 (26:25):
It's there's so many variables, especially because to me, it's like, well,
if he did, were they he's not going to, by
the way, I don't think so much.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
Would.

Speaker 6 (26:34):
He's a beautiful man, we've been together a long time.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
Lives Huh, it's not a short leash.

Speaker 6 (26:40):
Yeah, so true, there's no way he'd wanted because he
gets cut off.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
So was he in love with this person?

Speaker 5 (26:50):
Was he?

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Was he one night? Was it a one night stand?
I'll put a cup that you quick fight. You have
just found out that eight years ago Jimmy one time
cheated on you.

Speaker 4 (27:02):
I that changes things then I would be so so
hurt and like I think, but the time thing also
changes things too.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
I My, we've had this conversation before. I feel like
I would we have so much to lose. We have
two boys, yeah, two dogs. I'm trying to justify in
my head.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
I would want to stay with him because I love
our life together, but I don't trust myself. I feel
like I would constantly bring it up and I would
be so insecure.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
Even in this scenario where it was like nearly a
decade ago, it was one time, and nothing's happened since
doesn't speak this first. Yeah, I would still I would.

Speaker 4 (27:40):
I probably wouldn't break up a marriage over that because
of what we have, Okay, but it would make me
doubt everything else. And also I just I have trust
issues and if I'm a scorpio, if someone does wrong
by me, I swipe.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
Them and I and I'll I move on. Okay, So
you battle with that one. I would really battle.

Speaker 4 (27:58):
And I know when you if if there is cheating
in a relationship, you if you do stay together, that's fine,
but you both have to let it go, and the
person that was cheated on has to let it go
otherwise it will fester like a cancer and it will
eventually kill your relationship.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
Of course, I'm guessing then if I was to throw
another scenario where it happened recently or was still if
there was, is it immediate grounds for separation, divorce or
is there any way you want to work, I couldn't.

Speaker 6 (28:24):
I would do I would be so so hurt. Yeah,
and I would also cut off his thing.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
I really would you?

Speaker 14 (28:33):
Really?

Speaker 1 (28:34):
Actually, I don't doubt you. I'd love to hear from
people on thirty one or two three who've been in
this scenario. Have you actually worked through it and it's
worked out for you, Yeah, Or you tried to work
through it and it made it worse, or it happened
to you and you're like, nah, I'm getting the knife out.
Please don't tell us you cut someone's wily off air
radio and you broke it up instantly.

Speaker 4 (28:57):
Or sometimes stuff like this happens and it makes people
stronger in the end.

Speaker 6 (29:02):
Hear those stories too. I don't know how that happens.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
Hats off to you, but we'd love to hear from you.
What would you do if you found your partner cheated
on you? Have you taken aback? Right now? We're in
the wall of truth.

Speaker 6 (29:13):
Then Max's came up with a disgusting little.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
Stat Yeah, we saw it on Instagram. I don't know
the validity of it, and I'm defending the blokes. I'm
saying it's untrue. But at least one Instagram account reckons
one in three blokes cheat. Twenty percent of marriages have
got a bloke cheating on a woman apparently.

Speaker 4 (29:30):
Yeah, and Max said to me, what would I do
with my husband Jimmy cheated on me and we've been
together for more than half my life and I can't imagine.
I feel we have built the most amazing, beautiful life
together and I feel like I would want to move on,
but I have so much respect for myself that I
don't think I could. I have a wild imagination and
I would always bring it up with him, and that
would be the worst thing to do.

Speaker 1 (29:50):
So it's pretty much definitely ending Hailey's marriage if that
was to happen. We don't know what happened to you
thirty one or two three? Has it happened? What would
you do?

Speaker 6 (29:57):
Belinda in Jep's Cross?

Speaker 1 (30:00):
What happened to you?

Speaker 8 (30:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (30:03):
My ex husband, he he cheated on me, and I
took it back three times because he kept saying I
really want to be with you, but then it was like,
oh he wanted to be with her, And then three
times at the end of the day, I had to
go like nap because he was really excuse me, he
was really playing with my mind and I'm using nice

(30:24):
words there, playing with my mind. And I lost a
lot of weight because I went through so much stress
from it. We had two young children.

Speaker 9 (30:33):
At the time.

Speaker 7 (30:35):
But at the end of the day he gave me
a favor because I've been with somebody now for nearly
twenty years and I'm the happiest I've ever been.

Speaker 6 (30:42):
Oh see, that's fate.

Speaker 1 (30:43):
It was meant to end up that way anyway. Why
did you want to keep taking him back the three times?

Speaker 12 (30:48):
Belinda?

Speaker 7 (30:50):
Because I loved him and you know, and because I
leave out of home to live with him. So that's
all I really knew, as in being in a relationship,
being married, et cetera. And my thing was if you're
married three seconds then but then at the end of
the day, I just couldn't do it because he was
really playing with my head dog.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
It was all you knew, and you wanted to stick
with it. Blinda, thank you for sharing. We appreciate that
there's one way you try and take them back and
it doesn't work. All right, we want to hear from you.
Thirteen one O two three. Yeah, have you taken your
partner back after they cheated? We're asking you at the moment.
Have you ever taken back a partner after they cheated?
There is a stat real or folse, bouncing around online
that one in three Bolks have cheated on their partners.

(31:34):
I asked Hailey in the Wall of Truth, what would
you do if Jimmy cheated on you, and.

Speaker 4 (31:38):
I said, I just I would want to keep our
life together because I love him so much, But I just.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
Don't think I could. I just couldn't move on. What
would you do? You don't have kids yet, what would
you do? Not that a lies, I would ever do that,
But I feel like it's really circumstantial, like it happened
ten years ago. It's like, oh, I mean, I feel
like last nine years have been pretty good between us.
But then so could I get over it? Probably? Possibly?

Speaker 6 (31:58):
I think if there's love, it's a definitely Am I out?

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Yea if it happened last week, yeah, I'd probably have
some stuff to say. Yeah, hey, what do you think?
Thirty one O two three? Have you taken your partner
back after they cheated Raquel in Monopara? What would you do?

Speaker 8 (32:14):
I gave him a flick. So I was pregnant with
my son, who is now thirty three. He used to
go off to the video store to rent a movie.
Now he would be gone for an hour two sometimes three.
I thought it was a bit strange that he'd be
gone for so long, and found out that he now

(32:38):
has another child who is nine months younger than my son.
But we all know as women that you're actually pregnant
for ten months. So he still swears he never cheated
on me, but you work out the mask.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Oh wow, those videos? Who's coming home with the latest
release films years. I'm so sorry. Your advice to the
people in a similar scenario would be give them the flick.
You couldn't get over it can get over.

Speaker 8 (33:09):
I went, you know what, See you later, mate.

Speaker 4 (33:12):
Yeah, Rachel, you deserve and you're an amazing mum. Raquel,
let's go to anonymous. What's your story?

Speaker 2 (33:19):
I can play from both sides. So I was married
when I was young and slept with anything that moved
and cheated on my wife, her friends, her sister like
it was all horrible. And then moving forward second marriage, No,

(33:40):
I didn't cheat it all. And in a relationship between
that and now where I am was with a girl
who I've known for a long time. I went to
hospital for five and a half months and she supported
me very very well, but during this time was sleeping
with her ex husband.

Speaker 12 (33:56):
I didn't know that.

Speaker 2 (33:58):
I came out of hospital wanted to have one big
trip with my kids, so I took them on a
trip because it could have been the end of my life.
So and I came home to an empty house and
she moved back with her husband. Yeah, so I think
possible karma.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
I'm going to say, yeah, yeah, did it make you think?
Did it make you go oh, oh, I wish I
hadn't done the things that when I was younger.

Speaker 2 (34:25):
Oh for sure, for sure, Like, yeah, I know, I
regret what I did to my to my wife back then.
That was horrible. And yeah, so she moved out and
then she went to come back about a month later
because she'd made a mistake, and I said no, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:45):
But wow, yeah, thank you so much for sharing that.
That's bold to say I messed up.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
Oh yeah, you got to own up your mistakes.

Speaker 4 (34:54):
Yeah, and you're saying, don't do it if there's anyone
out there going tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
Yeah, I'm in a long relationship now eight years. I've
been in this relationship and it doesn't even you know,
it doesn't even hasn't even crossed my mind.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
The whole are anonymous?

Speaker 2 (35:09):
Yeah, oh yeah, for sure for sure.

Speaker 3 (35:12):
Really you're in the running for that access to the
being classic twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
I don't think we should reward him, maybe though, Hey, guys,
producer Bella.

Speaker 14 (35:24):
Here, we actually have someone that's called up who has
admitted that her partner gave her multiple sti's while cheating,
and she still took him back and they're still together
to this day.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Wow, this call the next breaker right. Yes, we're having
an interesting chat right now. Thirty one O two three
give us a ring. Have you ever taken your partner
back after they cheated? It's based on a study that
we found. We're not sure, but it's true. One in
three men apparently. Hope that's not true. I'm a dirty
I reckon that bad, and I would suggest that a
lot of women are also doing it. So has it

(35:57):
happened to you? Have you taken someone back? Thirteen one
two three?

Speaker 5 (36:00):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (36:01):
What is your story?

Speaker 10 (36:04):
Well, we've been through that for about two or three years,
and he went out for a party and he didn't
come home for a couple of days, and I was
joking with my friends and say, yeah, he's found some
other woman to be with. Turns out I was right,
but I didn't find out until about two weeks later
when I found out I actually had an STD and

(36:25):
I knew it had come from him because I'd not
been with anyone else. No, And well we had a
bit of an argument about it, and you know, how
couple do they fight, and you know, there was tears,
and I said, look, I need some time. So I
left and I went stage with my dad for a

(36:49):
few days. And the whole time I was gone, I
couldn't stop thinking about him.

Speaker 9 (36:53):
I couldn't.

Speaker 10 (36:55):
I couldn't stand being away from him. So I went
back and there was a lot of grobling, There was
a lot of making up to do.

Speaker 9 (37:03):
There was a lot of.

Speaker 10 (37:05):
Things involved in earning back his.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Trust we had about your trust right, Yes, yes, and yes,
it was quite a process.

Speaker 10 (37:20):
Long time, long process. But I think it actually brought
us closer together as a couple after the incident, because
before that we had you know, it was just like
it didn't seem like we were an actual couple. It
was just, you know, we were people that were living together,
that occasionally did stuff together. It wasn't like we were

(37:42):
a proper couple. And then after that it was it
really brought us closer together. I think it's more that he,
because of he was putting more effort in.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
And then.

Speaker 10 (37:54):
Again, I do I do worry that it will happen again.
Fifteen years later, we've we're still together. We're married now,
we've got two beautiful kids. We've you know, we we
yes if they is so fifteen years, we've been together
for nearly twenty years now.

Speaker 1 (38:13):
Just now have those worries dissipated that they gone? Now?
Those worries that he might do it again, they are
still there.

Speaker 10 (38:21):
They are still there sometimes that Sometimes again, I tell
myself it's not going to happen, because there's a lot
more at stake now. If he does do something and
I find out, then that's it. He's lost me, he's
lost the kids, he's lost the dog.

Speaker 1 (38:38):
He lost too much.

Speaker 6 (38:40):
Will you tell your kids that the dad cheated on
the mums ago?

Speaker 10 (38:45):
I don't actually know if they know. They're still too
young to really understand that. But yeah, it was a
very long process.

Speaker 4 (38:56):
But you sound like a very strong woman to be
able to continue your relationship and not keep bringing it
up years and years later.

Speaker 10 (39:04):
I think it's only been brought up a couple of
times since then, And that's more on my end thinking,
you know, if he goes out, I can't think, you know,
make sure you come home.

Speaker 1 (39:19):
I hate to live like that. That's really tough. Yes,
thank you so much. That STI from all those years
ago is all good as well.

Speaker 10 (39:32):
That goes away, right, I think it's actually there is
one of those ones that stays with you.

Speaker 1 (39:38):
You got a reminder forul lies, You have a reminder.

Speaker 10 (39:41):
Forul life, Yes, thankfully, thankfully it's not it's not a constant.

Speaker 1 (39:48):
Yeah, thank you much for sharing. You're amazing.

Speaker 4 (39:51):
Oh my god, can I say thank you so much
for being so honest when you call our show.

Coming up after eight thirty, The Secrets behind the Scenes

(46:00):
with The Biggest Loser, Australia's Shannon Ponton. After the massive
You've Seen It Max the Netflix Docko fit for TV.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
I was fascinated with it and I haven't liked hadn't
been around on our screens for what eight years? And
I sat there and watched this and I was like,
I wish it was still around because everything about it
is so wrong.

Speaker 12 (46:15):
We's so right?

Speaker 1 (46:16):
Yeah, are those scales real? Are the scales real? Wayne's real?
You know, all the caffeine tablets and all that sort
of giar you how to take all that? Is it
like a jail? Do the trainers hate the people? How
often do they actually film?

Speaker 5 (46:28):
In a week?

Speaker 6 (46:29):
You're gonna find out everything next?

Speaker 3 (46:31):
Get it all next, Haley and Max in the morning.
We know this guy, Australia's most famous personal trainer. He
was on the Biggest Loser.

Speaker 12 (46:39):
Hey, Shannon Ponting, Shannon.

Speaker 1 (46:42):
Good morning, Holy match going great, so nice to hear
your voice again. Husky as bad as it is, we
love your Husky boys. We've missed your Shannony. You're still
ripped as could. I still like cut an orange on
your abs.

Speaker 9 (46:55):
The shaggy is not as good, but the motors are right.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
That's good. That's all matters. We appreciate that, all right, Shannon,
The Biggest Loser? Have you seen this Netflix doco that
everyone's been talking about fit for TV?

Speaker 9 (47:07):
I did, might have watched it on the weekend, just
just sheerly because of the weight of people that was
watching it. Everyone to be seen it. I don't know.
I'll be interested to see what you guys, and what
do you actually think? What did you think?

Speaker 12 (47:18):
Was a takeaway?

Speaker 1 (47:18):
I was fascinated by it because one I was growing
up as a teenager and The Biggest Loser was on
TV and it was the biggest thing in TV when
Reality TV was massive. It was impossible to avoid it,
and it was so fascinating to see these people losing
weight and I didn't appreciate how they were losing it.

Speaker 9 (47:36):
Yeah, before reality TV lost the soul.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
Yeah, exactly right, And I was the same.

Speaker 9 (47:41):
I sort of watched it and knowing what we did
back there was twenty years ago. You got to remember
when we first started, and I think things have changed
a lot in what we know about mental health and
that sort of space now. I think one thing's for sure,
the people that were represented on that program would have
benefited from post show counseling however or whatever that may be.

Speaker 1 (48:03):
That was one of the biggest takeaways that they came
to sort of at the end of the doco. And
this is about the American beaguess, there's not the Australian one.
But they said, oh, if we'd had some post show help,
maybe would be able to keep the weight off and
maybe our heads would have been a bit better because
a few people, Shannon, they piled it back on and
they lost their way as soon as the show finished.

Speaker 9 (48:22):
Yeah, and I think the it's fla The most sort
of polarizing way to say it is people go to
NA and AA for a lifetime to beat the demon
booze and drugs. So they vacillate in and out and
in and out and in and out. And I believe
in my experience that the same addictive personality traits exist
around food. So the people are addicted to food. They
come to us and like, if you could just see

(48:44):
behind the scenes. We spend hours and hours behind the scenes,
off camera, training and that sort of stuff to get
the contestants ready to go. And when they have transformed,
they look you in the eye and they go, Shannon,
I promise I've never gone back. I've been pretending my
whole life that I'm happy. I'm truly happy now, I
feel amazing. I'm not going back. But once you go
back to life, just the temptation is there. And then

(49:05):
unfortunately they portrayed betray them and you can't.

Speaker 1 (49:09):
Work out a day as soon as you leave the
Biggest Loser House.

Speaker 5 (49:12):
But that's the thing.

Speaker 9 (49:13):
You don't have to.

Speaker 12 (49:14):
You don't have to.

Speaker 9 (49:15):
The maintenance is way easier. You know, as you are,
you're still in shape, Shannon, and the answers, Yes, but
I only trained forty five minutes a day to an
hour a day, five days a week.

Speaker 4 (49:23):
Let's go behind the scenes for a second, Shannon, because
we know you're a great guy. I interviewed you back
in the day when it was in its absolute heyday,
you're an awesome guy. But on this doco they're basically
saying that the trainers were aggressive and they bullied contestants.
Do you regret the way that you were with these contestants?
If you were to do that show today, would you
be the same?

Speaker 9 (49:42):
Yeah, I would definitely be exactly the same. And I
think the thing to understand is, in my personal experience,
I was never ever told to saying anything. I was
never ever told to do anything. Everything I did was
of my own volition as a coach made not spending
forty hours a week with these contestants and you know
they can do better, and they're not doing better. And
if you go to any sports stadium or any training

(50:04):
ground anywhere around Australia, whether it's a coach training a
soccer team, a netball team, a ballet dance for anything,
there's going to be times when they're chargers or hook
their athletes aren't doing what they're supposed to do, and
the trainer is going to use whatever means they can
to motivate them to get them going. And it's a
standard thing. But if you've never been exposed to that
in your life, it probably would sound a little weird.

Speaker 1 (50:24):
All right, Shannon, stick with us up next. I want
to ask about some of the crazy stuff I saw
them on this doco doing, like the trainers, the crazy
stuff that they're ignoring doctors' orders, and.

Speaker 6 (50:33):
I want to get your thoughts on weight loss injectibles.

Speaker 3 (50:36):
All right, Shannon Ponton hanging out with halleum Ax. It's
Mix one on two point three Mix one O two
point three haleyum MAXI The Morning Fit for TV. It's
a documentary on Netflix exposing the secrets behind the scenes
of the American Biggest Loser, and we thought, hey, what
about the Australian one. So Biggest Loser trainer Shannon Ponton
still hanging out with us.

Speaker 1 (50:55):
Jillian and Bob the American trainers, like they were obviously
very over the top and they were hard uses, so
to speak. There was even things in the show that
came out like they were giving them caffeine pills and
they were ignoring the show doctors' orders a few times
to do extra stuff. I'm very happy we didn't see
the Australian one in the Netflix doc go sound like
most things were above board, Channon, Was there anything that wasn't?

Speaker 9 (51:18):
No, We didn't have any access to give anything to
the contestants. They're locked up, we're locked up on the
way in. We don't have access to do it, and
something we would never do. But from a sports science
point of view, I don't think what they did was
dreadfully bad. Kathleen's caatheleen. You can have a couple of
cups of coffee. It's going to do the same thing
ethically wrong. But from a sports science point of view,

(51:40):
it's probably like they probably they shouldn't have done it,
Like it's a waste of time. The advantage that you'd
get having some katheleen wasn't worth the risk of doing
it because you're in escence become or you in escence
become a drug cheat mate.

Speaker 1 (51:51):
Yeah, what about the weigh ins? Was that ever altered anyway?

Speaker 9 (51:54):
No, we don't have any say over that, but I
can imagine and in my conversation with producers and the
like on the way through, that was the one defining
feature the Biggest Loser had that other reality team shows
didn't happen. Yeah, I watched Marster Chef or something and
Beautiful Dish I've ever had his ato And then for

(52:15):
us a kilos a kilo. Gram's a gram. Everyone that
lost a kilo lost the kilo, and it can't be
open to interpretation. It's in your perception.

Speaker 12 (52:23):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (52:23):
It was objective, not subjective exactly.

Speaker 9 (52:26):
Thanks.

Speaker 4 (52:27):
What do you think about all the weight loss injections
that are the new craze that's happening at the moment.

Speaker 9 (52:32):
I seem a glue tide is a drug that's in
ozen pic and I'm not opposed to it. I think
it's way less invasive than having stomach stapled or a
gastric band or something put on. Yeah, and it can
offer the similar results in my mind if people learn
good habits around it, because basically all that does is
silence the food noise is a very easy way to

(52:53):
say it. So it will help people with the food
addiction not be addicted by food so much. So it
just quiets that food noise a bit.

Speaker 4 (53:00):
Wouldn't that be amazing if that was for other addictions
like drugs and alcohol, Well, that would be incredible.

Speaker 9 (53:04):
Well well, well, well, well when you say that the
oz MPI stops, I've trained a lot of people high
functioning alcoholics and things like that who are overweight because
of their alcohol addiction stop someone in to drink because
it takes the pleasure center away from the alcohol as well,
So it does have a knock on a fair.

Speaker 1 (53:23):
That. So you deal with a lot of these people shouting.
Have you seen them like making mistakes with the injectibles
or any tips that we can give for a few
of our listeners out there who are on them.

Speaker 9 (53:31):
I think yeah, I think you do exactly what the
doctor says, and don't overdo it and try and re
educate yourself on the way through whilst the drugs there
trying to stop you eating, so you may as well
use it while you're there, and it's probably a healthy
thing in essence, under the doctor's guidance to come on
and off and on and off as you need it.

Speaker 1 (53:49):
Before you are you in touch with any of the
former contestants? Do you still see any of them here anything?

Speaker 9 (53:53):
Yeah, definitely, And I'm always here. The funny thing is
a lot of them don't reach out to me because
they're either embarrassed or they're disappointed in what they've done.
They think they've let me down. But I'm always here.
I've still got my phone there, I've still got the
phone number and every advice or help I can give them.
I'm always there still to this day. But yes, and
the answer is yes, there's probably about ten that I'm
still in contact with that I'm still good friends with.

Speaker 6 (54:16):
You are the best, Shannon, Thank you so much for
joining us.

Speaker 3 (54:19):
Pleasure, Thanks to all Right, So tomorrow, what does a
former contestant have to say about his time and his
experience on Australia's Biggest Loser? Here that eight point forty
tomorrow with Haley and Max. Next, we're going NonStop at
nine and your chance to get over to Las Vegas
for the iHeartRadio Music Festival.

Speaker 12 (54:38):
We're out of here.
