Speaker 1 (00:01):
And Amanda jam Nason.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
My passive door blade on the dance is this.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
What I said? You look like you were dragging out
the garbage when you were pulling Alana across the floor
behind you. I can't believe that those words aren't a joke.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Your passive door blade? Is that what you did? That
was black Betty, wasn't it.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
I don't know you did black Betty. This stuff looms
larger in your mind than mine. I blocked a lot
of it.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
Out, you know.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Dancing with the Stars for me, as you always know,
is it was a bittersweet time. I thought I was
going to get the gig hosting The Bachelor, remember the
TV show The Bachelor, But they gave it to Ginsburg instead,
and I ended up on Dancing with the Stars. Ironically,
Asha ended up on Dancing with the Stars as well,
so we both ended up in the same spot. But
I'm so glad that I did the show, because I

(00:50):
am not a dancer in any way. I don't like
doing it.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
I don't like we didn't like watching it. That's not true.
You were like there was something charming, charmingly comical about you.
That's why people loved you on it because You weren't
being disrespectful. You were trying very hard. But it was
so funny, and that's it was the right spirit of
that show. You'll have people who are great dancers, but
someone who tries their best and doesn't take it personally

(01:15):
that they're not mey good. That's what I think. That's
the nut you were.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
Ever since I've been on the show, I always dip
in and out of it watching it because there's a
lot of technique. And we had Robert Irwin on the show.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Oh well before we just give the context for this.
Robert Irwin debud on the American Dancing with the Stars
last night. This is one of the biggest shows in
the States. Five million people watched him dance last night.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
We had Robert on the show and we just spoke
because to him about it because Bindy had been on
the show ten years before.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
You'll never top that. I mean, I come into this
with the sense that I want to bring you know,
that that Irwin energy that she brought. I want to
bring it back into the ballroom. And that's what I'm
excited for.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
And did he bring.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
He was extraordinary dancing the joke with his partner Whitney
cumes it's Robert Irwin.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
Now look at him, jumps off the land robe, slides
across the floor, rips off the car Key flamboyant shirt.
Now look at this kickball change, kickball change? How good
is he?

Speaker 1 (02:12):
He's a very proficient dancer.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Totally insane. Judges go crazy, Robert and Whitney closing out
the night with that incredible job.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
We just did that, Robert, mate, that wasn't good. It
was great. Wold would have following the best possible way,
absolutely brilliant.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
Have you remember practicing? No practicing for ten years? That
was all Whitney.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
I haven't even moved to music at all. And that
was probably the best first dance I've ever seen on
this show.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
That was in travel That is very five and you
know the jive for me and I remember the accolades.
I remember them when I finished my jib. Yeah, do
you do remember no No? I remember feeling like this.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
That was probably the best first dance I had ever
seen on this show.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
That was interesting. It's pretty similar to my No.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
The way I remember it going is this is what
Helen said. You had a minute and a half of music,
and in that time there's over two hundred beats and
I don't think you hit one of them down. Yeah,
good luck, Robert. I think Robert is going to go
all the way.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
He's all the way, rob he is
