First 90 secondsHolly Wainwright· Host0:00
[gentle music] Hello, and welcome to Mamamia Out Loud. It's What Women Are Actually Talking About on Wednesday, the 29th of April. I'm Holly Wainwright, and I just saw Patrick Brammall in the hall.
Claire Stephens· Host0:14
Oh, same.
Holly Wainwright· Host0:15
So he's from, um, well, he's from Collingwood counts, but now he's in The Devil Wears Prada 2.
Claire Stephens· Host0:20
Yeah.
Holly Wainwright· Host0:20
And he came in because he's doing an interview- [gasps] ... with Kate Langbroek. And it was like seeing a Holly- a full Hollywood celebrity in the hallway, which is weird 'cause he's, like, he wasn't that.
Amelia Lester· Host0:31
But has he kind of had a glow up?
Holly Wainwright· Host0:32
Well, he's got an entourage. He's this little entourage around him. And the w- and lots of us, including me, were trying not to look, but sort of looking. You know what I mean?
Amelia Lester· Host0:40
Yeah.
Claire Stephens· Host0:41
I really love the story of Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer. I just think it is just the most amazing story of Australian success and how great writing- I love that show ... can change your life. Like, I just, I just love them.
Holly Wainwright· Host0:52
They live in LA now in a big- Do they? ... big wiggy way. But we didn't go to The Devil Wears Prada premiere last night.
Amelia Lester· Host0:58
I'm going tonight.
Holly Wainwright· Host0:59
Oh, that's right. I'm g- I'll go on the weekend, but you know why I didn't wanna go to the premiere? I learnt my lesson at Wuthering Heights. I do not belong at premieres.
Claire Stephens· Host1:08
[laughs] Oh, same. I saw, I saw picture... I saw people being like, "Oh, I didn't realize everyone would be so dressed up."
Amelia Lester· Host1:12
Yeah.
Claire Stephens· Host1:12
And I'm like, "No, that's what I learnt- And it's like- ... at Wuthering Heights" ...
Holly Wainwright· Host1:15
influencer Olympics.
Claire Stephens· Host1:16
Yeah, no.
Amelia Lester· Host1:16
Yeah.
Holly Wainwright· Host1:17
You go in your j- in your jeans, and then you feel like an idiot. There's a lot of hustling. Like, I was like, "I don't belong there. I belong watching this on Saturday morning with my sulky teenagers." I do, definitely. Anyway, that's me.
