(02:07):
nominations came, I'm also, firstof all, I'm an Emmy judge,
gonna voter. I'm part of NATASfor the Daytime Emmys. It's one of
the full disclosure on that. Iam very proud of that. But when
so when Neighbors shows up on theballot, it was a big deal.

(02:32):
It was like, what so neighborsfans and a neighbors casting career, I
you should feel he's very happy andproud that enough people voted. So they're
ha. So they are up fortheir premis two Emmy nominations daytime Drama series

(02:57):
that means sort of a whole show, and Guy Pierce's nomination for a guest
performance in a daytime Drama series.So the thing is you just never know,
right you submit and right in andin turn, Neighbors has made history.
So this is good. So Ijust used it was great, but
I was like, Okay, Iwant this is this is phenomenon's happening.

(03:23):
I really want to find out aboutwho runs the show, because I knew
the show had ended at one timeand then it came back and out's back.
It's a new chapter. And soI was like, but also for
the Emmys, because I do Icover the Emmys. I have the Daytime
Emmy Specials here on JAILJ Media Audioand Video, so you can go to

(03:45):
any audio platform and find it.Just type Daytime Emmys Specials and JAILJ Media
and I'll pop up YouTube. Samething. And so I was like,
I'm going to reach out to themfor this Emmy season. I actually thought
maybe i'd be the first, right, So I go out there and I
research. I seriously started looking atI'm like I don't know where. It's

(04:10):
like, literally, we have theinternet. It's like where do I begin?
And I just some digging on theinternet and I found two names,
and uh, I sent emails ofthem. About a week or so goes
by, and then I heard backfrom a for beca metrom. Now at
this point, for beca metrum onehandles something that's a little different. But

(04:32):
I got to the one of themain guys. He's in the UK.
He has it there super nice,and the dialogue begins. I'm like,
I just want to interviews with somebodywho could talk to me, and he's
been keeping me in the loop.And but he also sent me this one
sheet. We call them one sheetsbecause you look some bullet points. It's

(04:56):
not real part of this for you. It's like it's like it's basically a
press release. One sheet, freev Amazon, FREEB. Daily Drama Neighbors
secures two Daytime Emmy nominations. Thisis the first US nomination for this series.
And we know and it tells youknow what he got nominated for Daytime

(05:21):
and won award. Shows in Australiathe date Australia and also the UK.
Neighbors executive producer Jason Herberson shared quote, Neighbors has been incredible, on an
incredible journey these past three years,and a Daytime Emby Award nomination is the
icing on the cake. It's ahuge honor to be nominated alongside such iconic

(05:44):
US daytime dramas. That's that newsis an exciting one for our hardworking cast
and crew, and wonderful recognition ofa new chapter of the show on Amazon
freebe end quote. And it isI mean, seriously, should feel very
proud. And so it tells youwhere you find the series, which I

(06:11):
just I just read earlier in thein the this episode says in Australia's network
ten retains first run rights in Australiafrom the new chapter of the series.
That makes sense completely. New episodesair daily money through Thursday on Amazon.
So it's it's a day it's adaytime, four days a week show.
Because we were like America's like,well, is it on four days and

(06:32):
during the day Yes, it's availableduring the daytime. It's on four days
a week. That's a soap operamlike ours. The new series launched September
of twenty twenty three. I Mavercame back and it picks up twos after
the finale left off. Fremantle Media, which I used to work with them,
is produced us as Neighbors. It'sthe longest running local drama of all

(06:57):
time in Australia. Wow. AndI knew this part. Of course.
Neighbors launched the careers of many wellknown talent, including Margot Robbie, Kylie
Minegg, Who's Charlene, Jason Donovan, Guy Pearce Leam and Chris Hemsworth and
Delta good Room does have some goodsongs, making day is your Name?
Somebody's names we know in America,we do know some of these names.

(07:19):
And I knew that I had neverI had seen I saw Charlene's entrance all
those years ago, where she's breakingtime, breaking to her own house,
and she has like a tomboyish look. Kylie was so cute, and I
knew about her and Jason Donovan.Their characters got married, and of course

(07:40):
their duet that was huge back inthe early nineties. Like it's I knew
that stuff, and I've heard theNeighbors, but I narrow really Walker didn't
you didn't get in America. SoI watched that. These were like clips
I see on YouTube. We're oncable somewhere, complete bits and pieces.
I saw some of the stuff ona documentary the UK did for stock Aching

(08:03):
