Yeah.
This is where I belong.
These are my people.
So Stephen Joyce is slightly older than you?
He looks very much older than me.
So he was doing like a vet degree and cut his teeth in radio there, then went on to set up the company that is now MediaWorks.
He was my boss for a while.
I think Jeremy Corbett was an investor as well.
Yeah, so this is when – God, this is going to age the conversation.
There were two TV channels in New Zealand, TV1 and TV2.
And then TV3 was launching, and this was a TV show called Away Laughing.
That's right, yeah.
So you got sort of headhunted for this.
Yeah, it was amazing.
I mean, it's the starlights, right?
It's the dream.
But how did that conversation go down with your parents?
Oh, yeah.
Not well.
Knowing what you know now about TV and how fickle it is and how quickly they make knee-jerk decisions, what they did back then, there's no way you'd do it, right?
