Speaker 1 (00:00):
Brisbane's biggest game of Hide and Seed is coming mine.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
We are still in our regular studios. We have not
been taken, but we will at any moment. Now I'm
guessing today, maybe it'll be next week, but give us
a weekend. When we do get taken, we'll be hidden
somewhere in Brisbane. The first person to knock on the
door of where we're hiding wins are guaranteed twenty thousand
dollars and you can play online too. You when yourself
(00:30):
a thousand bucks just by guessing online as to where
you think we are.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Can you give us like a day or two in there?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Please just find us quickly.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
It would be amazing too, because after yesterday I stuck
when we were sent to an escape room to actually
see how we would go in a pressure situation. Yes,
well it didn't necessarily go as well as I had hoped.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
We had professional eyes on us. Michelle Jansen from a
couple's therapist. She's from Brisbane Couples Counseling. She was there
to see how we worked as a team. And Maddie
app producer is in to discuss because you guys were
watching in like a control room.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Yeah, it was the game master's room or we were
watching from.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Above, so you had how many screens because there were
multiple cameras watching.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
It, so it was like one massive screen and then
you had it all broken up into all of the cameras.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Because we did a prison break escape. So the idea
was is that we were both you two were together
in one cell. I was in a cell across like
you know, not at arms reach far enough away.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Thank god.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
We had to. We had you know, regular prison bed
and sing and toilet and stuff, and we had to
work our way together as a team to get out
of the cells, then out into the next room, and
then work our way out of that as a team.
As a team.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
I mean, it's such an awesome place, Like if you're
into escape rooms, this one is one of the best.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
It was packed to there was a lot of people
there and we're.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Not going to give any of the clues away, so
we won't ruin anything for you. It was more about
us together. So Maddie, Yeah, what did you observe?
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Well, I mean, things started off actually really really well.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
I was quite impressed. You were very support what if
of each other, You were cracking jokes. The morale was high,
but the cracks did start to show Corey was actually
the one who had to decipher the first clue and
well insert clip.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Okay, now, okay, what are we like about halfway through?
Corey starting to get a bit frustrated. Energy's really dropped.
So an important thing for them to be aware of
will be again how they're talking to each other, particularly
as yeah, that honeymoon period starts to die down, the
excitement starting to die down. How do we still speak
to each other really constructively, gently, calmly, kindly, even when
(02:36):
we're feeling frustrated.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
About that.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Frustrating Yeah, So the honeymoon period did die off quite quickly,
and Corey did actually make it through to the second room,
which was a great win. However, he was then alone
getting rattled and Kip, you were kind of in fix
it mode.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
So just before when Corey said, I think it was
Corey saying this is really rattling me, and then Kit
went straight into strategy mode.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
So no, no, no, just do this.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
So if they were together in a living situation with
you know, want to make sure that yes, the task
is done, but there's still acknowledgment of how that person
is feeling otherwise they can, you know, leave a situation
or a conversation feeling unheard, misunderstood, not valued, particularly in
this situation. As a team player, no one like you.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
To try and find a solution when someone is emotionally
falling apart.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Sure math equation telling me that there's stressed, Oh no,
because that's so much more important than someone else's emotional
well being.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
So you did make it through to the final room together.
So you're all together in the room now. Robin and
Corey are actually standing off to one side at this section,
and they're trying to help you, Kip as you decipher
another clue. However, Kip, at this point, you're not responding.
You're doing it alone.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
So Kim is not really responding anymore. So he's stopped
responding to any what we would call bids for connection
from from Robin or Corey. So they're both trying to
reach out and say hey, I'm here, I'm trying to help,
but he's actually turning against and he's turning away. He's
not he's ignoring it and he's focus sitting in on himself.
Oh no, and what he's trying to do to fix it,
(04:26):
which I would imagine would potentially in a living situation
be quite isolating for the.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Others to hear that siren. The guards were coming. We're
doing prison break, We're stuck in prison. Someone had to
lift calculate fractions and.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Point of ignoring everyone like both of us were like,
he'll help you.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Oh no, Kip White Men, I couldn't, I think Sae.
I said, I'm pretty sure the has like a map
of the place. I think it's important, and you were
just like.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
He just did notice. But it gets so much worse,
right and after the break we.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Can analyze how we actually.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Felt about this. This is your chance to justify your
appalling behavior, because you did one other thing, which I've
got audio from inside the cells, something good, and he
broke a bed. It was all started off enthusiastically and
then Kip abandoned us, And that was from the outside
looking in. But what people didn't realize is that I
(05:31):
was also recording what was happening on the inside. And
Kip managed to with doing through the clues and stuff
open his cell. And then as soon as he opened
his cell he said this.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
So if I just managed to go, I would have
been able to actually get a message to our families. Instead,
we all stayed stuck together.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
I think still have been trying to coplate the alphabet.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I know.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Come on, seriously, let's go around the room and be
really honest in debrief on this. Yes, let's start with you, Corey, Like,
did you enjoy it?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Was it fun?
Speaker 1 (06:19):
How you were feeling?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
It was good?
Speaker 1 (06:21):
At the start?
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Was great, Like I thought we were doing good.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
I'm like, oh, we're a chance.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
And when we got in the big room, it's just
that that Matt was the thing that frustrated me.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
So we got out of ourselves and then we ended
up in this middle room and that was But can
I say, like, you paint yourself as being this happy guy, lucky,
like an over enthusiastic puppy dog that annoys people. You
nailed almost all of the first three or four times.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, Corey was very helpful. You're a lot more helpful
than I expected. You really were.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
You did a lot.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
No it is I didn't think you were going to
beat You were really good at it.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
And as you can see from this engagement, thought himself
the boss. So I then took on the role that
I always take on in this show behind the scenes
and in front of it is that I kind of
am a facilitator, so I try and support everyone. I
sit back most of the time when things are happening
(07:18):
around and I wait to see where I can be
have the most impact.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
It be the most helpful. Is that fair? Yes?
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Yes? And I was also the communicator between these two,
and I held the phone because unlike Kip, I'm very
happy to ask.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
For help at any point in time. I got all
the clues and the help.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yes, So when I can't do something, I'll say to
the person who can can you please help me?
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (07:44):
White Man.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
On the other hand, mister Kip Whiteman does not want help,
does not want to work with people, and quote clearly
was getting more and more angry.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
So what was going on for you? I just wanted
to finish the task. And that is I've even had
to say to Rafi, my little boy. I had to
say to him mate, because he'll say, had dad, can
you fix this toy? And I'll start fixing it, and
then a few minutes later, who will come to me
and go, hey, Dad, can you do this? And if
I go mate, get away from me one thing at
a time, I cannot you cannot give me two jobs
at once. I must finish this and don't talk to
(08:17):
me until I'm done.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
But we were there to help you, and we were
all on the same task, like we.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Wanted to actually ask you questions at one stage, and
you did not say a word. Well, we were just like,
what about this? And it's just B plus.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Only if you you have to finish the task. You
don't want assistance.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
No, But we got started on a task and then
I realized that you two were doing the wrong task.
So I just wanted to fix the right task and
get it done.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
And you do.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
We had the right class, which is the math.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
We didn't well, I didn't know that at the time.
At the time, it was the wrong time.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
We live with this man. We were like working as
a tea.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Do you want the other hand? There's an iron kip
all right.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
