00:00Tonight on Healthy, Wealthy and Wise,
00:02a firefighter mum gets a makeover that will inspire us all.
00:06Oh, look at you.
00:08That looks awesome.
00:09Doesn't she look good?
00:11Jesus.
00:13Comedian Dave Thornton is our first victim of the box of death.
00:17What are you doing? I live in Melbourne, we only have hook turns.
00:20Like, that's the only thing I have to worry about.
00:22This room needs to be rescued.
00:25And this family can't believe how we transformed their home
00:28in a room rescue.
00:30Oh, my God.
00:49Hello, hello, and welcome to the very first episode
00:53of The Revitalised Healthy, Wealthy and Wise.
00:56Yes, we are bringing it back.
00:58A bit of a polish, a bit of a zhuzh,
01:00but the bones are still the same.
01:02It's all about living smarter, feeling better,
01:05and maybe having a bit of a laugh along the way.
01:09I'm Chrissie Swan, and I'm so pleased to be here.
01:13And over there, within arm's reach of every fact you could possibly need,
01:18is our researcher and in-house info whisperer,
01:21Mr. Ash Wicks.
01:23Hey.
01:24Hey.
01:26Now, we thought we needed someone that I could call on
01:28to answer questions in an instant,
01:31but sadly that person didn't show up.
01:33So we got Mr. Moustache over there.
01:35Great start.
01:36I was first pick.
01:38Number one pick, they say.
01:39But anyway, I have got a broken phone screen,
01:43a vague sense of responsibility,
01:45and Google, so we're in safe hands.
01:47What could possibly go wrong?
01:49A lot.
01:49Now, our very first guest,
01:51it's someone who knows exactly how to make you feel confident
01:55in your own skin.
01:56She's a creative force, an entrepreneur, an author,
01:58a styling icon,
01:59and a genuinely beautiful human being.
02:02Of course, I'm talking about our style expert
02:05and my very good friend, Chika King.
02:07All right, take a seat.
02:10I mean, good on us for creating an entire TV show
02:14just so that we can sit on a couch and chat.
02:16I know, we never get to catch up,
02:17so now we get to do it this way.
02:18I love it.
02:19Now, I know what you're doing here,
02:21but why don't you tell our beautiful viewers
02:22what you're up to?
02:24Well, I'm here to help people reconnect with themselves
02:26because I think a lot of people feel style is something
02:29that's slightly intimidating.
02:31And really, when we look good, we feel good.
02:33So I'm hoping that with some perspective,
02:35I can show people how they can change the way they look and feel
02:38just with a tweak of an outfit
02:40or a moving around with some furniture.
02:42Chika, where did your first mission for confidence take you?
02:46Well, the first person was Linda.
02:48She's from a town close to Bendigo.
02:50She is the chief officer at the CFA
02:52and she's the most selfless woman.
02:55Her daughter put her forward,
02:56wanted to give her mum the spotlight
02:57and to get her out of her black clothing.
02:59So we had a lot of fun hanging out together
03:01and doing a little bit of a makeover.
03:03Oh, my God.
03:04I love this so much.
03:06It's fun.
03:07All right.
03:08Let's take a look.
03:08Let's do it.
03:18Well, hello, Miss Linda.
03:20It is so lovely.
03:22I'd love to meet you.
03:23You too.
03:24This is incredibly impressive.
03:25Big red truck.
03:26Big red truck.
03:27I know.
03:27I love it.
03:28Very exciting.
03:30Now, what are we doing today?
03:32Ashley.
03:32Oh, Ashley, have you done this?
03:35Yeah.
03:36My daughter Ashley nominated me.
03:38She's a member here at Fire Brigade as well.
03:40She wants to see me try something new.
03:44I don't really have much style.
03:47I dress for comfort.
03:50I want to see mum get out of black.
03:52Okay.
03:52So she's wearing a lot of black, is she?
03:53Yes.
03:54When I'm not captaining the CFA,
03:57I am a lighting technician at the local theatre.
04:02Black.
04:03That's what we wear.
04:05It's just carried over into my real life.
04:08Because it's easy.
04:10And I'm lazy when it comes to fashion.
04:13Black.
04:14Black.
04:15Black.
04:15Oh, my God, you really aren't joking.
04:17I'm not.
04:17No.
04:18No.
04:18You don't have to think about,
04:20does this go with this?
04:21You just go with black.
04:23But I do have a little bit of colour in my velvet flares.
04:28Love.
04:29Love, love, love.
04:30Yes, I do too.
04:31What would you wear with this, though?
04:32A black turtleneck.
04:33Dress?
04:37Dress, no.
04:38Definitely no dresses?
04:39No dresses.
04:39Okay, fine, that's cool.
04:41I'm not a dress person.
04:41No, no, I'm not totally fine.
04:43At all.
04:43I don't own a dress.
04:44Not one.
04:46I like to be able to jump into my firefighting gear
04:51when we get a page
04:52and not have to worry about getting out of a frock.
04:55And I'm assuming probably not much make-up.
04:57If it's a really special occasion,
04:59I'll put some mascara on.
05:01Woo-hoo!
05:01Woo-hoo!
05:02Okay.
05:03I've got no idea how to put it on.
05:04She couldn't even do my dance make-up when I was little.
05:06Oh, really?
05:07Did you have to learn how to do it yourself?
05:08Oh, no, I still can't do it.
05:09Make-up.
05:10Just not a priority in my life.
05:13I have no idea how to apply make-up,
05:15but I can drive a semi-trailer across the Nullarbor.
05:19I had breast cancer in 2022.
05:24I found the lump myself.
05:26Fortunately, it was nice and early.
05:27It hadn't gone to my lymph nodes,
05:29so I just had it removed a month of radiation treatment.
05:33And so far, so good.
05:34It certainly gives you a sense of your own mortality
05:37and that every day that you have is a gift.
05:41It also makes you realise that you've really got nothing to lose.
05:44Get out there, do what you want to do.
05:47You might not get another opportunity.
05:49OK, I think we can definitely give you some things
05:53that you can layer up and have fun with.
05:54Still keep it casual.
05:55Working with your personality
05:56and maybe move a little bit away from all the black.
05:59Aw.
06:00Are you happy to do that?
06:01I'm happy to have a crack at it.
06:02That's all we can ask for.
06:03We might even find you a few white T-shirts.
06:05Oh, me and white.
06:07Gosh, it'll stay clean for about 30 seconds.
06:09It doesn't matter.
06:10Don't worry about that.
06:11I bet you that's not true.
06:12I bet you.
06:13Oh, it is.
06:13Oh, it is.
06:14The boys here are going to love when you walk in
06:16and go, what have they done to our captain?
06:20Before I left, Linda was kind enough
06:22to give me a little wardrobe makeover of my own.
06:27A diverse and inclusive brigade
06:29that represents the community that we serve
06:32is really important
06:33and I think that's important for all brigades.
06:36For me, it's all about breaking down barriers for women.
06:39People can be what they can see.
06:41Absolutely.
06:41And in the tanker, we're sometimes all girls.
06:44It's really nice seeing mums pointing to their little girls
06:50and saying, look, look, look.
06:52Oh, fire trucks, fire trucks.
06:54And the little girls are all there waving.
06:56Traditionally, that was a little boy thing.
07:03So good.
07:04I have feelings for Linda
07:13and I'm pretty sure they're real.
07:15She's a very special woman.
07:17Oh, my God.
07:18Do not go anywhere
07:19because after the break,
07:21I will be sitting down with the master of the mic,
07:23Dave Thornton,
07:24who's blissfully unaware
07:25that he's about to face the box of death.
07:29Stick around.
07:30You'll see what I mean.
07:32This segment is brought to you by Bob Jane T-Mart's
07:45Best Tire Price Guarantee.
07:49Welcome back to Healthy, Wealthy and Wise.
07:51Now, do not go anywhere
07:52because we are smack bang in the middle
07:55of a Chica-style makeover.
07:57We'll have the big reveal a little later in the show.
08:00But before we get back to the glam,
08:03we're shifting gears with a segment
08:05we like to call Fast Facts.
08:07Today, second-hand cars.
08:10Now, what to look for,
08:11what to run from
08:12and how not to get sweet-talked
08:14into buying something
08:15that needs a new transmission
08:17and a priest.
08:19We've brought in our motoring expert,
08:21Adam Morris,
08:22from ReDriven
08:23to give us all the info
08:25and I'm going to time him.
08:27Two minutes.
08:28No pressure.
08:29How are you planning on timing that, Chrissie?
08:31How do you think?
08:32I thought you could just time it off
08:34my attention span
08:35and then time that by six.
08:38And we should be around about there.
08:40I'm going to time him
08:41with two-minute noodles.
08:43The people's stopwatch.
08:45Amen.
08:47All right, Adam,
08:48you've got two minutes
08:49before these noodles
08:50go in my gob.
08:51G'day, I'm Adam
08:54and I'm your motoring expert.
08:56And look, let's be honest,
08:57when it comes to buying a car,
08:59there are some dodgy characters out there.
09:01It can be daunting,
09:02but I've got some good news.
09:03Avoid these red flags
09:04and you should be sweet.
09:06If the seller,
09:07and this also goes for car yards
09:09and dealerships as well,
09:10doesn't allow you
09:11to get an independent
09:12pre-purchase inspection,
09:13they are hiding something.
09:15Do not buy that car.
09:16Also, if the car doesn't
09:18have a service history
09:18or the service history
09:19seems dodgy
09:20or the receipts
09:21or any of the paperwork
09:22isn't sorted,
09:23yeah, not a good sign.
09:24You need to learn
09:25as much about the car's history
09:26as you possibly can.
09:28Next up,
09:29if the odometer
09:29is showing 30,000 kilometres
09:31but the rubber on the pedals
09:32is completely worn through,
09:34that's not a good sign.
09:35The kilometres should match
09:36the condition of the car.
09:37Also, modifications
09:38are generally a no-no.
09:40Plus, they might be illegal.
09:42This means that when it comes time
09:43to re-register the car,
09:44you won't be able to.
09:45Also, be really careful
09:47of dodgy finance deals
09:48and used car warranties.
09:50A bad finance deal
09:51can put you into a world of hurt
09:52and most used car warranties
09:54are not worth the paper
09:55they're written on.
09:56You've got to read the fine print.
09:57Also, does the seller seem sketchy?
09:59Are they not answering the phone
10:00or they want some weird form of finance
10:02or maybe they're way too enthusiastic
10:05to sell
10:05and the price of the car
10:06is far too low?
10:07These are all red flags.
10:09Next up,
10:10looking out for any mismatched paint
10:11or if the panel gaps aren't accurate
10:13or if there are any signs
10:14of spray paint overspray,
10:15that's a good sign
10:16that the car has had an accident.
10:17And inside,
10:18if the car smells like wet dog,
10:20there's a good chance
10:21it's got some water leakage issues.
10:22Yeah, don't buy that car.
10:24Look, overall,
10:25if the car or the buying process
10:27doesn't feel right
10:28or maybe it feels
10:29way too good to be true,
10:30it probably is.
10:31Just keep your emotions
10:32and your enthusiasm
10:33in check
10:34and buy with your head,
10:35not your heart
10:35and you should be good to go.
10:42And he's done.
10:43Let's see if Adam beat the noodles.
10:47Nah,
10:47still got some crunch,
10:49so he's safe.
10:50And with that,
10:51it's time to slow it down a bit.
10:54Let's all just settle in,
10:55make a cup of tea,
10:57maybe have a classic
10:57late night show chat
10:59with the guests.
11:00Nothing too intense.
11:01Nope,
11:01that's what a boring show would do.
11:04We are not that.
11:05We're taking it up a notch
11:06with a little segment
11:07we like to call
11:09The Box of Death.
11:14Please welcome
11:15to The Couch Australia's
11:16own stand-up sharpshooter,
11:18Dave Thornton.
11:19Dave, hello.
11:21Hello, Swanee.
11:21How are you?
11:23Well, that sounds...
11:24Always an absolute pleasure
11:25to see you.
11:26And to you.
11:27Now,
11:28this time is going to be
11:29a little bit different.
11:30Let me explain.
11:32This is Australia
11:33and we live in a country
11:34where pulling down
11:35a sun visor in your car
11:37could unleash a large spider
11:38and every third pot plant
11:40is harbouring something venomous
11:42with an attitude problem.
11:43So we thought,
11:44why not honour
11:45this national anxiety
11:47that we all share
11:47with a little challenge?
11:49While we chat,
11:50you're going to be holding
11:52a creature nature
11:53designed specifically
11:55to make you scream expletives,
11:57but you're not allowed.
11:58We're on telly.
12:00Your choices,
12:01a massive snake.
12:04Oh, Jesus.
12:08Now, if that doesn't
12:09tickle your fancy,
12:09your other choice
12:10is a giant spider.
12:13What are you doing?
12:14I live in Melbourne.
12:14We only have hook turns.
12:16Like, that's the only thing
12:17I have to worry about.
12:18Weirdly,
12:18a hook turn
12:19is your third choice.
12:22Really?
12:23Only joking,
12:24your third choice
12:25is the box of death.
12:29Hey, Chrissie,
12:30this doesn't feel
12:31healthy, wealthy, all wise.
12:32This doesn't hit
12:32any of the KPIs
12:34that we're trying.
12:35So I've got to choose
12:36between these three.
12:37Yeah.
12:37We do take our obligations
12:38seriously,
12:39and we want to return
12:40your children's father
12:42to them tonight
12:43after this show.
12:44Oh, that's nice.
12:44So we do have
12:46top-notch paramedics
12:47on standby.
12:48Woo!
12:50Hey.
12:53We actually couldn't
12:54afford a paramedic,
12:56so I've taken
12:56a crash course
12:57in first aid.
12:58I hope this program
12:58has deep pockets,
12:59because there's going
13:00to be a lawsuit.
13:01I just want to let you know.
13:02So, Dave,
13:03what are you vibing?
13:05Are you arachnophobic,
13:06spiders, or...?
13:08Ophidiophobic.
13:09I beg your pardon?
13:11Ophidiophobic.
13:12I believe it's
13:13a fear of massive snakes.
13:14Wow.
13:15Yeah, I get paid
13:16to Google.
13:17No, I think the name
13:18for that is reasonable.
13:20Yeah.
13:20Like, it's not as if
13:21anyone's going,
13:22I'm fine with giant snakes.
13:23It is perfectly reasonable
13:24for that thing to,
13:26oh, my God,
13:27that doesn't look right.
13:28All right, we're going
13:28to take a break,
13:29and then when we come back,
13:31I'm going to need an answer.
13:33Oh, no, fair enough.
13:34Mention your sponsors,
13:35and then I die.
13:35That makes sense.
13:36That makes complete sense.
13:37Got to pay the bills,
13:38Thorno.
13:39We'll be back
13:40after the break.
13:44Healthy, Wealthy and Wise
13:49is brought to you
13:50by Specsavers.
13:55Welcome back to Healthy,
13:56Wealthy and Wise.
13:56I knew you'd come back
13:57because you want to see
13:58which creature
14:00Dave Thornton
14:01is going to choose.
14:03Thanks for sticking around.
14:04Yeah, I shouldn't have.
14:06I don't mean, yeah.
14:07Well, you could have
14:08been a hasty retreat
14:09because before the break,
14:10I offered you three options.
14:12You can hold a snake,
14:13you can hold a spider,
14:14or you can go for
14:16whatever is in the box of death.
14:20And we're here to find out
14:22what it's going to be.
14:23To be honest,
14:24I spent the whole time
14:24texting Tommy Little
14:25to see if he could fill in,
14:26but...
14:27This sounds weird.
14:31It's better the devil you know
14:32because I don't know
14:33what's in that box.
14:34I'm actually worried
14:34to see what's in it.
14:35And I hate spiders.
14:38And I don't know
14:39if I watched too many
14:39Motley Crue video clips
14:40when I was a kid,
14:41but I feel like I could
14:42wear the snake around me.
14:44I should be fine.
14:45You're going to do that?
14:46It looks like...
14:46Has it eaten recently?
14:49No, not recently.
14:50Oh, this is...
14:51This feels like
14:53I'm a D-grade celebrity
14:54to get me out of here.
14:55This feels...
14:56It looks so real.
14:57Oh, this doesn't feel good at all.
15:00Done all of this.
15:01There's a little lump in here.
15:02Was that Grandenya?
15:03What's going on?
15:04All right.
15:06Are we ready?
15:08Yeah, you have to hold the head.
15:09Why?
15:10Why do I have to do that?
15:11Because I just made it up.
15:13Oh, so you're not cool with it?
15:15No, I'm not cool with it.
15:16No.
15:18Honestly...
15:18Oh, God.
15:19Oh, okay.
15:20All right.
15:21Start the clock.
15:22You, Dave Thornton,
15:23have had dozens of sellout shows
15:25both here and overseas.
15:26You've officially made it.
15:27How's your super?
15:28To be honest,
15:31I work in the arts, mate.
15:32It's just annuation.
15:33There's no super about it.
15:35Whatsoever.
15:35You have performed
15:37across the globe.
15:38Edinburgh,
15:39Montreal,
15:40Singapore.
15:41Why was your residency
15:42at the Sphinx
15:43in Geelong,
15:44the pinnacle of your career?
15:46Because I grew up in Geelong.
15:47I grew up in Detroit.
15:48I'm a proud...
15:48I'm proud Geelongian.
15:50And, um...
15:51Actually, the Sphinx Hotel,
15:52the drive-in bottle-o,
15:53do you know what it's called?
15:54No.
15:54The Toot and Come In.
15:57That is the best.
15:58Isn't it?
15:59Dave Thornton,
16:00every comedian
16:00has to deal with abuse
16:01from hecklers.
16:03Have you ever heard
16:03them say anything
16:04that's made you think,
16:05actually, you've got a point?
16:07Yes.
16:08What?
16:08I was performing
16:09at a university
16:10when I was younger
16:11and I had just started comedy.
16:13And I remember
16:13I looked out to the audience
16:14and this woman
16:16was sitting in the front row
16:17and I said,
16:18oh, are you okay?
16:19You're not really laughing.
16:19And she just said,
16:20I just think
16:21you can do better.
16:24And here I am,
16:2620 years later
16:26on a Saturday night
16:27with a snake around my neck.
16:30Who's laughing now, sweetheart?
16:32This is...
16:32Oh, he twitched.
16:33He actually twitched.
16:35Oh, God.
16:36What if I told you right now
16:38you had a bat in the cave?
16:40There's a booger.
16:40What are you going to do?
16:41Oh, God.
16:42This is the least of my problems.
16:44You should see
16:45what's in my pants.
16:47He isn't a brown snake,
16:48but I have one on my person
16:49at this point in time.
16:50He's actually...
16:52Oh, I don't.
16:53Carry on.
16:54Keep asking you.
16:55Yes.
16:56You climbed Mount to Kilimanjaro
16:57with the great Tommy Little.
16:59Next time,
17:00do you think you'll do it
17:01with someone more sympathetic
17:02when you break down
17:04and cry for your mummy?
17:05This is a story up there.
17:06Tommy's a really lovely guy,
17:07to be honest.
17:07And I had...
17:09My circulation's quite bad
17:10and my hands weren't really working
17:12and I had to whizzle-wazzle
17:14at one stage going up the mountain
17:15and I couldn't button my pants back up.
17:17And so Tommy, bless him,
17:18did my pants up.
17:19Oh, it was the Daily Mail paparazzi
17:21at that exact moment where...
17:25Well, like I said,
17:25it was very cold,
17:26so he was Tommy Little by name,
17:27I was Little by nature.
17:29Oh, this is making my in-memoriam.
17:32I was once at the Logies
17:33with Denise Streisdell
17:34during the in-memoriam
17:35and it ended and she goes,
17:36oh, good, I'm not dead.
17:38Anyway, you didn't die.
17:40Well done.
17:41You've survived
17:41and you can go out
17:43and make more money
17:43for your children.
17:44Well done.
17:44Ronnie, thank you, mate.
17:46Oh, that was you, Ebony.
17:50I didn't know what he was doing.
17:51Oh, God.
17:52Next up, we are taking a closer look
17:54at something a lot of us
17:56do overlook, our eyesight.
17:59We all like to think
18:00that we'd notice
18:01if something was wrong with our eyes,
18:03but it turns out
18:04plenty of conditions
18:05are sneaking up on us
18:06very quietly.
18:08Our medical expert,
18:10Dr Michael,
18:10has been out
18:11talking to the public
18:12about the warning signs
18:13that we all tend to miss.
18:15Let's take a look.
18:16Most of us take our sight
18:18for granted
18:18until something goes wrong.
18:20So today,
18:21I'm hitting the streets
18:22with these simulation glasses
18:23to show everyday Australians
18:25what it's like to live
18:26with a chronic eye condition
18:27and why you should get
18:28your eyes checked
18:29before it's too late.
18:30Oh, oh, oh.
18:32Oh, oh, oh.
18:32Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
18:35We're going to give you these glasses,
18:37try them on,
18:38and then tell me what you can see.
18:40Absolutely nothing.
18:43Have a look at me.
18:44Can you see me?
18:45It's just blown off.
18:48Yeah, that's quite difficult.
18:49Wow.
18:50Yeah.
18:50That's not good.
18:51No, you don't want to get
18:51to that stage.
18:52No.
18:54I'm visiting an expert
18:55to find out more
18:56about eye conditions.
18:58So, Joe,
18:59these glasses have been blowing
19:00everybody's mind
19:01out in the street there.
19:02I think it's important
19:03that we talk through
19:04all of these different conditions
19:05and let people at home
19:06understand what's going on.
19:08So these glasses replicate
19:09diabetic retinopathy.
19:11So when these small blood vessels
19:12in the retina becomes leaky
19:14and it makes your vision
19:15really patchy and blurred.
19:17There's certain bits
19:19of my vision that I can see
19:20and then there's other bits
19:21where I just can't see anything.
19:22Yeah.
19:22So that one's diabetic retinopathy.
19:25What does it look like?
19:25Maybe the floaties
19:26that are getting behind some time.
19:28I'm seeing white spots everywhere.
19:30I can see you, sort of.
19:32Often, in the early stages,
19:35there are no symptoms,
19:36which is why I would say
19:38to patients with diabetes
19:39to get their eyes checked
19:41on a yearly basis.
19:42Makes sense.
19:43You want to try another one?
19:45Yeah.
19:45So that one's called glaucoma.
19:47Uh, oh, golly.
19:51Glaucoma often creeps up
19:52with no symptoms at all.
19:54So when you start to notice it,
19:55often the damage is already done.
19:57It affects your peripheral vision,
19:59which is why wearing these glasses
20:02look like you're looking through a tunnel.
20:05God, it's just my centre side,
20:06not the peripherals.
20:08How much harder is that than normal?
20:11Well, 150% harder.
20:14Try these ones on.
20:15This one's pretty scary.
20:17Oh, wow.
20:17Yes.
20:18I cannot see right in the middle of my vision.
20:21Yeah.
20:21Can you read anything there?
20:23No.
20:23Do you have to move your eyes around
20:24to try and see it?
20:25Yeah.
20:25Can you see me?
20:26Only if I move that way.
20:28How many fingers have I been holding up?
20:30There I can see two.
20:31There I can see none.
20:32Your macula is your central vision
20:34and macular degeneration
20:35affects that part of your vision.
20:37So it means doing simple things
20:39like reading, driving,
20:42or just seeing detail
20:43is really difficult.
20:45It's one of the leading causes
20:46of vision loss as we age.
20:48I see a faint outline of you,
20:50but that's all.
20:51What eye condition
20:52do you think that might be?
20:53I don't know.
20:54I'm assuming it's nothing not good.
20:56How many fingers am I holding up?
20:57I don't know.
20:58No.
20:59I wouldn't be able to tell you.
21:00That's actually cataracts.
21:01Wow.
21:02Wow.
21:03Can you see anything?
21:04No, I could see your hand moving,
21:06but you could be anybody.
21:08Cataracts is basically
21:09when the natural lens in the eye
21:11becomes foggy,
21:12kind of like looking through
21:13a dirty or foggy window.
21:15Often it can creep up really gradually.
21:18Yeah, that's scary.
21:19I did have a cataract removed,
21:21but it definitely wasn't as bad as this.
21:23Do you think you'd be able
21:24to live your normal life
21:25or drive or do your day-to-day stuff
21:27without a chance?
21:28Absolutely not.
21:30I just would not be able to function
21:31if I had vision like that.
21:33So, Joe, from what you're saying,
21:35these don't go from zero to 100 overnight.
21:38This is a process that happens over time.
21:40The scariest part is
21:41some of these conditions
21:42don't even have any warning signs.
21:44So even if your vision feels fine,
21:46you should still book in
21:47to get eye examinations
21:48on a regular basis.
21:50It's not rocket science, is it?
21:52Exactly.
21:53Early prevention and detection
21:55makes all the difference.
22:01Actually, Ash,
22:02can you quickly look up
22:04how often we're supposed
22:05to be getting our eyes ticked?
22:06Oh, surely it's similar to bed sheets,
22:09like once a year.
22:10That's disgusting.
22:12Still to come,
22:14our DIY diadomo,
22:15Amy Stanton,
22:16is rolling up her sleeves
22:17and giving a tired old womb.
22:20Oh, no, it's not about
22:21my reproductive system.
22:22A tired old womb.
22:24A proper refresh
22:25for a family
22:26that really deserves it.
22:28We'll see you then.
22:29CHEERING
22:30This segment is brought to you
22:40by Oz Design.
22:42Furniture for life.
22:45Welcome back to Healthy,
22:46Wealthy and Wise.
22:47Now, if you love a good before
22:49and after,
22:50you are going to love this.
22:53Sitting with me is Amy Stanton.
22:56Amy, welcome.
22:58Now, we did just meet
22:59a snake
23:01that eats a rabbit
23:02once a week.
23:03Have you eaten a goat
23:05or is there something?
23:08Just a few too many beers.
23:10No, I'm expecting a baby
23:12in, yeah,
23:12not long now,
23:13a few weeks.
23:14Well, we'd better get cracking
23:15on this segment.
23:17OK,
23:17we have set you a mission.
23:20Tell us about that.
23:21Well,
23:22we're doing something
23:22called Room Rescue
23:24and basically
23:24we put a call out
23:25to families
23:26that have a room,
23:28a space
23:29that needs
23:29a bit of TLC.
23:31It might be
23:32not functional,
23:33old,
23:33outdated
23:34and then we go in,
23:36give it a cheeky
23:36little makeover
23:37and I tell you what,
23:38Chrissie,
23:39this first family
23:40couldn't be any more deserving.
23:41I was so stoked
23:42to help them out with it.
23:44Let's take a look
23:45at your first room rescue.
23:47Casey and Cam
23:48met five years ago.
23:50After the heartbreak
23:51of losing their son
23:52at 25 weeks,
23:53they now cherish
23:54the family of four
23:55they always dreamt of.
23:57I'm a mum of a toddler
23:58with another one on the way.
23:59I know how hard it is
24:01for a house
24:02to feel unfinished.
24:03Did the kitchen,
24:05started this room,
24:07that's where it stopped.
24:09We had this little surprise
24:10down here.
24:11Who come along?
24:12So time and money
24:13just went elsewhere.
24:14We have had the walls
24:15plastered for about six months.
24:17We have had a blanket
24:19as a curtain
24:20for about six months or so.
24:22This room needs to be rescued.
24:26It got plastered
24:27when I was 38 weeks pregnant
24:28and it wasn't ideal
24:30but we needed to get it
24:31to a livable state
24:33before a newborn.
24:34Yeah.
24:35And from one kid
24:36to two kids,
24:37no one tells you
24:38how hard it is.
24:39It's a completely different spectrum.
24:40Everything in that space
24:41was put on the back burner.
24:43We had bigger priorities,
24:44bigger issues
24:45to worry about.
24:46OK, Casey's house.
24:50This is a classic episode
24:52of have a small family,
24:55then you have all these
24:56big plans to get things done
24:57and they just don't happen.
24:59Wall's half done,
25:01floor's half done.
25:03They've emptied out the space.
25:04It's actually a little bit
25:05bigger than I thought.
25:07We're at the gateway
25:08of the beautiful Yarra Valley here
25:10so I really want to bring
25:11those outside colours in.
25:13Your soft greens,
25:14your sages,
25:15your terracottas
25:16and just make it a space
25:17where you just sit down
25:19with your family
25:20and it's chill
25:21and you walk in here
25:22and you're like,
25:23ah, I love my life.
25:25First things first
25:26is painting.
25:28The walls have been plastered
25:29and ready for months.
25:31Time to get the job done.
25:33A warm white will allow me
25:35to bring in pops of colour
25:36through the furniture
25:37and homewares
25:37and complement some much-needed
25:39new flooring.
25:42Right, Rowan,
25:43the floors,
25:44what are your first thoughts
25:45on them?
25:46So, it is going to take
25:48a lot more work
25:49than we first thought.
25:50A bit of grinding to do,
25:52a bit of levelling to do
25:53to make it flat,
25:54but we'll get there.
25:56Alright, let's get into it.
25:58The last thing I want
25:59is for Casey and Cam
26:01to walk around
26:01on bumpy, creaky floors
26:03so good prep is essential.
26:06Taking the time
26:06to prep properly
26:07means the finish
26:08will look amazing
26:09and last for years.
26:18Laying over hardwood floors
26:19can be a touchy subject
26:21for some,
26:21but the hardwood floors
26:22have seen way better days
26:25and moving forward
26:26with maintenance,
26:27keeping them clean,
26:28they're the way to go
26:29and they're going
26:30to look amazing.
26:31As much as I'd love
26:32to stick around and help,
26:33a girl's got to shop.
26:35Alright, Casey's house,
26:36number one thing,
26:37you need a comfortable couch.
26:40We're tossing up
26:41between leather
26:42and fabric.
26:45Leather's great
26:45because you can wipe it down,
26:46but you can't go past,
26:48especially in Melbourne,
26:50the warmth and comfort.
26:51on a fabric couch like this.
26:55This might be a winner.
26:56Look at this.
26:58It's beautiful.
26:59I really want to bring in
27:00kind of curved edges,
27:02just soften up the space
27:03and it's kid-friendly
27:05because there isn't so much
27:06pointiness going on
27:08and this buffet
27:09looks like
27:11the perfect showstopper.
27:13Look how much storage there is
27:15to chuck all your kids' toys
27:17in there
27:17and it's a beautiful piece.
27:20It matches the floors
27:30so well.
27:32Beautiful.
27:33We're on.
27:34She's going to be tight.
27:36That was close.
27:40This nearly had to be
27:41an entryway couch,
27:42but we got it in.
27:43I want it about
27:44five centimetres off the wall
27:46because it's quite a small space
27:47and actually,
27:48if you leave it
27:49about five centimetres off,
27:51it creates a shadow line
27:52and makes it look bigger.
27:54Magic.
27:55Now,
27:55always love to go a bit oversized
27:57with the rug
27:59and the trick is
28:01don't have it there.
28:04Always chuck it.
28:05Just under the first leg
28:07makes the space look bigger.
28:11I need a nap after that.
28:18Look at those colours.
28:23Just bringing in
28:24those natural terracottas
28:26and greens
28:26and soft browns.
28:28Yep.
28:29Perfect.
28:31These dining chairs,
28:32even the tactical curve on them
28:34to match the curve
28:36on the buffet.
28:38Curve on the dining table
28:40and then we mixed it up
28:42with a bit of sharp edges
28:43on the occasional chair.
28:48Love your work, Chris.
28:49They look amazing.
28:51Just softens the whole space.
28:54This room
28:54This room
28:54is just
28:55a pump.
28:59Alright guys,
29:00no peeking.
29:01Remember what it looked like
29:02before
29:03we had the iconic
29:05blanket up on
29:06the window.
29:08Floors.
29:09There was stuff everywhere.
29:11On the count of three,
29:13open your eyes, alright?
29:14One,
29:16two,
29:17three.
29:18Oh my god.
29:25Oh my god.
29:28It is amazing.
29:30Yeah, it is.
29:33You guys deserve it.
29:35You deserve it.
29:35I know you're going to make me cry.
29:37Look at those planes.
29:39We've got these beautiful shears up.
29:41Look at that.
29:42I don't want to see it.
29:42It can't work.
29:43New flooring.
29:44So much easier to maintain.
29:46Yeah, the floors are unbelievable.
29:48Paint job.
29:49Everything is so bright
29:50and lively.
29:51Beautiful new furniture.
29:53Wow.
29:54I can't.
29:55I'm so grateful.
29:56The floor is nice.
29:58I've never had something
29:59so nice in my life.
30:01I am literally shook.
30:03It would be nice
30:03to come home to me.
30:05Oh, it is heavenly.
30:07Yeah.
30:08We would have never
30:09been mad at the look
30:10this good.
30:11We are forever grateful.
30:13And cannot thank you enough.
30:14You both deserve it so much.
30:16So many memories
30:17are going to be created in here.
30:18It's amazing.
30:18Amazing.
30:21And just like that,
30:23new floor,
30:24new furniture
30:25and a whole new vibe.
30:27You make it look so easy.
30:29Make it look easy
30:30is the key word there, Christy.
30:32At home, it's pretty hectic.
30:34I've got a toddler,
30:35another baby on the way
30:36and my toolkit always gets lost
30:38or it's full of Lego
30:39or something like that.
30:41I relate to that so much.
30:42My kids seem to think
30:43that yogurt's for wall art.
30:46Yeah, but Ash,
30:47the best form of DIY,
30:48if you can do something
30:49and your kids can't break it,
30:51you know you've built it well.
30:53Like, you've smashed it.
30:54Yes.
30:55Interior design
30:56by Chaos Goblins.
30:58Please stick around.
31:00Linda is just around the corner
31:02with her brand new look.
31:04See you soon.
31:04Welcome back to Healthy,

31:17Now, earlier,
31:18we met an incredible woman
31:20from just outside Bendigo.
31:22Firefighter, a mum,
31:24someone who's always
31:25putting others first.
31:26Now, with Chika's help,
31:28she's going to have
31:28a full wardrobe revamp,
31:30clothes that push her confidence
31:31through the roof.
31:33And now,
31:34it's time for the big reveal.
31:38Hello, lovely ladies.
31:39Hello.
31:40How are you, folks?
31:40Good to see you.
31:42So good to see you.
31:44Are we ready to go shopping?
31:45Sure I am.
31:46Let's do it.
31:48Meet Donna.
31:49Donna, this is Ashley and Linda.
31:51Welcome to Blue Illusion.
31:53Black.
31:54Black.
31:54More black.
31:55So our beautiful Linda
31:57only wears black.
31:58Yes.
31:58And we're going to take her
31:59away from black.
32:01There's some nice black here.
32:02Yeah, for you though.
32:03Well, I'm wearing black today,
32:05so I, you know.
32:06Not allowed to have black.
32:08Black and white.
32:09Black and white.
32:09But I thought
32:11the Benga jean
32:11was a perfect place to start
32:12because there's so many
32:13varieties of colours
32:14and shapes
32:15and I think you'll love
32:16these jeans
32:16because they're easy
32:17to pull on.
32:18They look great
32:18on your body type.
32:19And they're stretchy.
32:20And they're stretchy.
32:21You can run in them.
32:22Yeah.
32:22You can sleep in them.
32:29The cardigan.
32:31Not something
32:31I would ever pick off
32:32the rack,
32:33but I'm happy
32:33to give it a crash.
32:34I think you're going to try it.
32:38In you go.
32:40Hang on.
32:41I've got to figure out
32:42how to undo this.
32:45I really like that.
32:46This is a great piece too.
32:47You know,
32:48it's got the nice arms.
32:49Love, love, love.
32:50What about a wide leg
32:51pant like this?
32:52I love the way
32:53they fall.
32:53They're beautiful, aren't they?
32:54Yeah.
32:55That's just not my colour.
32:56I like it.
32:57Oh, of course you're not.
32:58It's the colour
32:59on her eyes.
33:00I really like the detail
33:02on the cuffs there.
33:05This is not going so well.
33:09These pants.
33:10Oh, yes.
33:11I like those.
33:12You could wear it
33:12with a little white T-shirt
33:14and a jacket over the top.
33:15See, I think that
33:15they're way more versatile.
33:17It's a good colour.
33:18Do you like the pants?
33:19I love the pants.
33:20Yeah.
33:20This looks great.
33:22That is a strong look
33:23for you.
33:24That's a lovely jacket.
33:25Look at you go, Linda.
33:26I love it.
33:27You've got to go,
33:28no, Chica.
33:30But let's just try it
33:31because we can.
33:32No, Chica.
33:35This one?
33:36Stop it.
33:37This is beautiful.
33:39What do you think
33:39of the sneakers?
33:40Nice.
33:40I love it.
33:41Yeah.
33:41And you don't have to
33:42undo the shoe laces
33:43to get them on.
33:44These are nice, too.
33:45These have got a bit
33:45of a wide leg on them.
33:47It's all about the pockets
33:48on the hips at the moment.
33:49Yep.
33:50Ooh.
33:51I like this one.
33:52You can have the front
33:53tucked in and have the back
33:54out.
33:55Make sure legs look longer.
33:56I think you need more
33:57colour underneath that
33:58jacket.
33:59Oh, that's a lot of
34:00green.
34:01That's a lot of green.
34:01That would look really
34:02good.
34:18Ashley, are you excited
34:19to see your mum?
34:20Yes, very.
34:21I'm going to expect
34:21a little tear, you know.
34:22A little reaction.
34:23No?
34:24I'm going to pinch you.
34:26It still won't work.
34:27Don't challenge me.
34:32How are you going in there,
34:33Linda?
34:33Have you checked yourself out?
34:34I have.
34:35Do you look hot?
34:36I didn't even think
34:36that was possible.
34:37Yeah.
34:38Okay, Linda, we're ready.
34:46Oh, look at you.
34:48That looks awesome.
34:50Doesn't she look good?
34:51Oh, my God.
34:53Look at this body hiding
34:55under those tracksuits.
34:56Yay!
34:57Well, you know, I said
34:59to you, no black.
35:00Yeah.
35:00But what I have done,
35:01knowing that you are
35:02a black wearer,
35:02is showing you that you
35:04can wear a bit of colour
35:05with black.
35:05It doesn't have to be
35:06all black.
35:07But it's black enough
35:08that I'm comfortable.
35:09Good.
35:10And what about the hair?
35:11I'm loving the curl
35:12being more exaggerated.
35:13Nigel's got a superpower.
35:15Your face looks just stunning.
35:17You look so beautiful.
35:18I'm very proud of you
35:19because I know this is a big deal
35:21and you look amazing.
35:23It's just a joy to see you
35:25looking so wonderful.
35:27I'm really stoked with it.
35:28Well, I think our job here is done.
35:30I'm absolutely thrilled.
35:31Feels great.
35:32Whee!
35:34Yes!
35:35Yes!
35:44You look so beautiful.
35:51I had a fantastic time.
35:53Thank you both so much
35:54for coming.
35:55And enjoy.
35:57Um, it's locked.
36:04Bye.
36:05Bye.
36:06Well, that was unbelievable.
36:10I know.
36:11She just looks so confident
36:12and now she's got all those
36:13extra options that aren't black.
36:16Yes.
36:16She's not just a firefighter.
36:19She's now a whole smoke show.
36:20Yep.
36:22Yes.
36:23No, it absolutely is amazing
36:24and, you know,
36:25confidence doesn't have to be loud.
36:27It can sometimes just be,
36:28but it's good if it is, sometimes.
36:33All right.
36:34Well done.
36:35I know it's early days,
36:36but that could be my favourite segment.
36:38After the break,
36:39we are going to be joining
36:40Vincent Dim Sim Lim.
36:42My God, I'm so hungry.
36:43I'm salivating just at the thought.
36:45We'll see you soon.
36:54Welcome back to Healthy,
36:55Wealthy and Wise.
36:56Okay, it is time now
36:57for No Dumb Questions.
36:59It's the safe place to ask
37:01what you actually want to know.
37:03Expect honest answers
37:04and a little hairspray.
37:06Let's go.
37:07My name is Patrick Stone.
37:12I am a barber
37:13and there are
37:14No Dumb Questions.
37:17Let's start.
37:18Ellie Kay asks,
37:20what's the weirdest request
37:21you have ever had
37:22in your chair?
37:24Well,
37:25someone came in
37:26and asked a scarlet,
37:28which is,
37:28you shaved everything here
37:30and then here you have
37:31the malet going down.
37:32People ask really weird questions,
37:34but I like it actually.
37:36You know,
37:36it keeps life spicy.
37:38Jesse W wonders,
37:40is it really bad
37:41to shampoo every day?
37:43Shampoo can damage your hair.
37:46The most important point
37:47is just this.
37:48Invest in good shampoo
37:50and conditioner.
37:51There are better qualities.
37:52So the thing is,
37:53you don't have to do like this
37:54just a little bit
37:55unless it's more.
37:56And if I say that,
37:57I mean it
37:58because normally
37:59less is never more.
38:00Lily F asks,
38:01what's the best way
38:02to tell your barber
38:03you don't like the haircut
38:05they have given you?
38:06Be brutally honest.
38:08No one has the right
38:09to be angry at you,
38:10but the worst thing is
38:11if you never gave me
38:13the chance
38:13to fix my mistake
38:15or just restyle something
38:17which you didn't like
38:18and it goes out
38:19and you tell people
38:20you were not happy with me
38:21because that would
38:22break my heart.
38:23Wow,
38:23I get emotional.
38:26Vivian L asks,
38:28how do you deal
38:28with someone's hair
38:29when it's really gross?
38:31If someone has really gross
38:32or greasy hair,
38:34I'm a little bit
38:35of a weird,
38:36thinky person,
38:36so I like it.
38:38No,
38:38just kidding.
38:39If it's extra gross,
38:40you're just going to shampoo
38:41it three more times,
38:43you know,
38:43that's not a big deal.
38:45Alex T asks,
38:47what's the most common mistake
38:49people make
38:50with their hair at home?
38:52Well,
38:53it's not COVID
38:53isolation times anymore,
38:55so don't use the trimmer
38:56or scissors
38:57on your own hair.
38:58I have made many people
39:00who have always
39:01made the same mistakes
39:02and then come
39:03and ask us for help.
39:04And the problem is,
39:05if it's too short,
39:06darling,
39:07we can't go
39:07any shorter.
39:09I mean,
39:10you wouldn't operate
39:10on yourself,
39:11you're not a surgeon,
39:12isn't it?
39:13So,
39:13the professionals
39:14are here to help you.
39:18What's up, guys?
39:18My name is Vincent,
39:19I'm the food expert.
39:20Don't want to fly 14 hours
39:22to eat American burgers?
39:23Well,
39:24you don't have to.
39:24I'm going to show you guys
39:25the best way
39:26to make down-and-out burgers.
39:28Let's get into it.
39:30The very first step
39:31is to preheat
39:32this hot plate.
39:33At home,
39:33you can use a pan,
39:34flat top,
39:35barbecue outside,
39:36whatever you like.
39:36We're using a wok burner today.
39:38Let that heat up
39:39and we're going
39:40to make the sauce.
39:41Mayonnaise
39:42in the bowl.
39:44Relish.
39:46Tomato sauce
39:47and mustard.
39:49A little bit
39:50of white vinegar.
39:53Paprika
39:54for the colour.
39:56A little bit
39:57of salt and pepper.
39:59And that's it.
39:59Super easy sauce.
40:01The sauce
40:01is like
40:02an American-style burger.
40:05Okay,
40:06now the hot plate
40:06is hot.
40:07I'm just going
40:07to turn down
40:08that heat.
40:09Add a splash
40:10of oil.
40:12Onions
40:12on the hot plate.
40:16The natural sugars
40:17from the onion
40:18is going to
40:18caramelise it slowly.
40:20We're going to
40:20turn it all the way down.
40:21It's just going
40:22to take a couple
40:22of minutes on the pan.
40:24We're just going
40:25to get these onions
40:25nice and brown,
40:27even colour.
40:28If you find
40:29your onions
40:29are drying out
40:30before they
40:31go brown,
40:32you can add
40:32a little bit of water,
40:33just a little splash,
40:34just to keep
40:35it hydrated again.
40:37There we go.
40:39Boom.
40:40Done.
40:41Now we're going
40:41to be doing
40:42the burger patties.
40:43We just have
40:43some ground beef here.
40:45What I'm going
40:45to add first
40:46is onion powder
40:47and garlic powder.
40:50Now we add
40:51a little bit
40:51of Dijon mustard.
40:53A tiny bit of oil.
40:55This is going
40:56to help it keep
40:56moist.
40:58Secret ingredient.
40:59This is
41:00meat velvet.
41:01What this does
41:02is it's going
41:02to tenderise
41:03the burger.
41:03It's going
41:03to keep
41:04everything juicy
41:04on the inside
41:05and the outside
41:06is going
41:06to get a nice
41:07crust on there.
41:08Now we're
41:08going to add
41:09yum yum.
41:10This is a little
41:11bit of MSG.
41:12It's going to bring
41:13out that natural flavour
41:14so you can taste
41:15the original flavour
41:16of the burger
41:16so much more
41:17and salt and pepper.
41:20Now everything's
41:21in there.
41:21We're going to
41:21give it all
41:22a mix
41:22and get all
41:23the flavouring
41:24mixed in.
41:26One giant
41:27meatball first
41:28and then
41:30we're going
41:30to split it
41:31to 80 gram
41:32balls.
41:34A little bit
41:34of oil
41:35to our hot plate
41:36just to stop
41:37it from sticking
41:38beefball
41:39onto the plate.
41:43This is a
41:43patty smasher.
41:44This is going
41:44to be able
41:45to press
41:45everything on there
41:46so it gets
41:47the maximum
41:48contact
41:48onto that
41:49hot plate
41:50but
41:50this thing
41:51sticks
41:52so what
41:53you want
41:53to do
41:53is use
41:54a piece
41:54of parchment
41:54paper
41:55and press
41:55it on there
41:56then it
41:56makes it
41:57nice and
41:57easy
41:58to pull
41:58it off.
41:59There you
41:59go.
42:00No stick
42:01and no mess.
42:02Perfect
42:03smash burgers.
42:05Anything
42:06that's on
42:06a hot plate
42:07if you can't
42:07hear that sizzle
42:08then the fire
42:09is not hot
42:09enough.
42:09You've got
42:09to turn
42:10it up
42:10a little
42:10bit.
42:12And we're
42:13going to
42:13put the
42:13burger buns
42:14on.
42:16Now once
42:16the cheese

42:18should be
42:18nice and soft
42:19and we're
