#281 - Brad Blanks - Red Carpets, Biggest Celebrity Interviews & Making It in New York

Brad Blanks is one of Australia's most recognisable entertainment reporters. He is a TV personality, radio personality and has conducted over 5000 interviews with the world's biggest stars on the Red Carpet.

What a special episode this is as we got to sit down with Brad in the iconic Old Mates Pub in New York City and chat about his amazing career.

Brad shares how from a small country town in Victoria, Australia, he took a giant leap to head to New York City to pursue his dream. From hostel living and doing whatever he could to get by (and on air) to forging a 20+ year career...you'll hear it all.

We talk about his biggest celebrity interviews, how he snuck into Elton John's post Oscars party and some of the biggest stunts he has been able to pull off! Including a visit to the Clinton's house dressed as Monica Lewinsky!

Brad shares how the industry has changed, the art of the short form celebrity interview, how he has formed relationships even how to sneak in when you're uninvited!

Plus, we talk about the early days of Hamish & Andy, his friendship with Ricky Gervais and so much more in this episode full of laughs.

This one is a great story about the hustle, and we know you're going to love Brad's modest and giving personality.

Sit back and enjoy the one and only, Brad Blanks!
