Harry Jowze, an Australian reality TV personality, shares insights into his journey from early appearances on shows like *Too Hot to Handle* to his emotionally impactful role in *Let’s Mary Harry*. His success is rooted in authenticity, self-awareness, and a deliberate persona of chaos and humor that resonates with audiences. The conversation explores how reality TV, especially dating shows, creates drama through isolation, overthinking, and producer-driven manipulation, turning everyday interactions into high-stakes, emotionally charged moments. Harry emphasizes the importance of vulnerability and real human connection over performance, noting that his most powerful moments came from genuine emotional exposure. He also humorously recounts a personal experiment with Botox and PRP, describing it as making his penis appear fuller and heavier—effectively turning it into a "shower" rather than a "grower"—a self-described absurd yet revealing experience. The discussion reflects on the broader evolution of reality TV, now blending real-life friendships with professional casting, creating more authentic and emotionally grounded narratives. Harry’s career demonstrates how a mix of self-deprecation, emotional honesty, and strategic unpredictability can sustain long-term success in a genre often seen as fleeting. His upcoming projects, including *Let’s Mary Harry* on August 5th and a Hulu series, signal a continued evolution toward deeper, more personal storytelling.
for the Botox and the PRP. Essentially it makes it fatta and like hangs heavier. Like when it's soft, it's like pretty much like 70% all the time. So it's more of a shower, more of a shower, but then when you're hard, it's like fatta and like longer. But only for like three to six months. - That's pretty long, that's longer than I've ever had that. So yeah. (laughing) - Harry Jowze is coming on. Who I've met before? I met him, where was I? Barbara and I went to this like Paris Hilton Halloween party. - My invite was lost in the mail? - Yeah, well, I did. - I usually send it here. - You were gonna be the other part of the donkey costume for me. - Oh, thank you. - You messed out. Anyway, so we go to that and immediately struck by Harry. He's a tall handsome Australian. - I googled him, I did not realize he was 65. - Australia is just kinda gotta going on, don't they? It's not fair, too. But they are also terrible drug addicts usually. So that's the downside. - I don't think Harry is, hopefully. - No, I don't think he is. He doesn't drink. So that's step one for Australia. - He's bad guy. - Yeah. - That's like the pubone. - No, no, he drinks. - No, he is? - Yeah, he does. He takes time off, I think, in between. He's just like good boy months. - I mean, my thing is, you can't be as fit as that guy is in drink like we drink. - Well, you look good. - Thanks, Harry. - Thank you. - Second high five already. - That was a real life, damn. - No, but he seems, when we interacted, he was a great guy, very funny, very real, which is why I think today will be like a very fun episode. - He's friends with Bazytel, he is from another wild man. So there's that connection as well. - Funny thing about Australians, and this has been pretty, this is almost kind of a fortarian a little bit, but is the great Emu war? - Oh, no, yeah, yeah, that's a little bit. - That's a little reddit. - Will you explain fortarianism a little bit, please? - Well, no, fortarianism, I don't think it's funny. - I think it's hilarious, so I disagree with you. - A term for a lot of people, 'cause our buddy Willie was talking to a group of guys about tartaria, which is this, you know, a possible law, civil resolution that was in half of Asia, and the guys were like, oh, that's really dumb. And then they just went back to like quoting Anchorman and some dumb shit, and it's like, so if you can't like get down with the boys and talk about tartaria, you're a fortarian. It's just like, oh, all forts are funny, like this and this is like, no, no, you gotta talk about a little tartaria and then watch some football. - I also think at the same time, now it's kind of transcended you and Willie's dialogue to exist as an explanation for people who like quote things or do things that are right on the cusp of like being popular culture. - Yeah, like when people talk about living in a simulation. - Yeah, like if they're gonna quote Anchorman, they're gonna be like, oh, whales of a giant. - Oh yeah, yeah. - And they do it all the time. It's kind of central to the humor and shit. - Yeah, it's like a Pavlov's dog for quotes. - Yeah, so I mean, tartarian a little bit is the emu war in Australia. - But it's a cool story. - But it is cool as hell, they lost a war to an animal, which I didn't know existed. - You mean your ostriches. Vicious or ostriches. - I would be sick. - I think a loss of raptor, the sentence, apparently. - I mean, it makes sense. - Yeah. - When's the last time you saw an ostrich in person? - It can't be that hard, dude. - I think it. - Do you see them all the time? You're kind of leaving me out here. Do you see them all the time or never see them? 'Cause you gotta hear me again. - I mean, I wanna say I drove past an ostrich farm or we went to one? - In like Malibu or something. - No, an Italy or something. What? - Yeah, Eleanor? - Yes. - ostrich farm, do you remember that at all? - Adventist several. - Yeah. - With ones in Malibu. - Okay. - We went to Greece and we were like. - Oh, and Greece, Greece. - All the time. - But you could eat ostrich at the ostrich farm. So it's like it wasn't the farm to relax at my retirement home. It was like a farm for cows. - I don't think you relax around ostriches. That's my thing. I think they're really scared. - No, no. - Yeah, yeah. - And you could release them afterwards. - What you're explaining is a little vampiric for me, Columbus'. Let me try to get to the bottom of this. You guys frequently see ostriches to eat them? - To eat them. Yeah. Well, I'll check the stock out. Make sure you free range ostrich and then you can just shout out. (laughing) They sell ostriches stores. They sell ostriches jerky. It's moral. - Okay. Well, you know, we're going to have to talk to Harry about that I think today. - If anyone's eight ostriches, Harry, should we welcome him in? - Yeah. - Harry. - Harry. (clapping) - Harold. - So good to see you. - Harold, there we go. - I mean, that's got to be the full name, right? - No, every American is like, oh, it's going to be Harold. I'm like, who invented that rumor? - Is it just Harry? - It's Harrison. - Oh, Harold. - Harrison. - That's such a queen's name. You know, like the queen. Not like you're a queen. - Wow. - But she's not the queen. - She's not the queen. - It's so good. - Yeah, you're dialed in. - The chalkin' like, it's a name that descends from the British Isles. - It's literally Australians and Canadians. - My brother's called Charles. - Charles C. - Oh, yeah, there we go. - Massive dickhead. - Yeah. - But here we call him Chaz. - Chaz. - Yeah. - Really? - Choc? - Choc, yeah. - Choc works too. - Yeah, I'll call him Choc. - Oh, what's the age difference? - He's like two and a half years, then he got four sisters. - Your four sisters? - Yeah. - F3. - Yeah, how good is that? - That's (bleep) crazy. - It's a lot. - They're a lot Eleanor. (laughing) - One of them? - Yeah, I was like, is it that many? - Yeah. - It's just in every room. - Yeah, it's college one. - Walk outside, it's like five more. - Yeah, it is. - It is why. - It is why. - No, bro. - Because I was the only boy. At least you had a brother. - Yeah. - I was just, I remember when my third sister got born. - Oh my God. - I started crying. - I told my mom I said, "All I wanted was a brother and you gave me another sister." - Yeah. - It's like, I was bummed out, too. - Yeah. - But now I'm probably happy. - I hope you'd like that. - You've got it up now. - Yeah, now they're nice, yeah. - You should love each other. - You took a while. - Yeah. - Okay, while we're on the subject, we were talking about this earlier, Brian. I'd love for you to pull up the team USA chance. They're trying out for the match coming up on Friday. I know this won't be. Our episodes do release after a certain amount of time. But just because this is hilarious for now. - How offended episodes come out. - No, no, no. - We keep this for personal years. - Yeah, we just want an issue. - What an issue. - For me. - I just want to hear myself talk. - Okay, do you ever think the Americans, when they're doing the chance for soccer? I lived in London for a while. But the Americans are not good at the soccer fandom. And then it feels like they're putting it on. Put it on air. - Listen, listen. - That's the way we like it. We like it. We love it. Oh. - Oh, that's really bad. We like it. We love it. - Who's the set of that? - Now, maybe call me paranoid. But it's so bad. It's actually working to spread virally. And people will remember it by the time they put it. - We like it. - Yeah. - We really, really love it. - I'm going to take a check it off. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - You heard that. - It's a Brazilian one right away. - Yeah. - The reactions online to that. From like Brits, Aussies, everyone else in the world. - Yeah. - The whole world. - This is fucking terrible. - Well, it's pretty fucking bad. But it was like, you think about it. I don't know. Have you guys got an LA Galaxy game? It's so fun. And the chances of a sick. - Yeah. I had a blast there. - It's so much faster than ever. - I never ever. - Okay. - So they do already have established chances. - Yeah, like that team that did that. - Should have just done team USA. - Is there like a. - Is there like a. - Is there a mastermind behind it? It was like in the lab, cooking up. - Yes. - Like there's got to be something. - Well, so apparently on the LA Galaxy. Because there's a section, right? And there's just people banging drums the whole time. And people with these chants. Apparently they were just like hired to make the culture at the team. - Were they like taken from Britain? - I was just throwing in the crowd. - It's like genius. - The British chants are fucking crazy because they will like call someone on the opposition like. - Don't say it. - Yeah, no, they'll literally. - They'll kill each other. And then they'll just like bring up his dating history. - Yeah. - Like while he's on it. - That's my whole life. - Yeah, that's it. - That's it. - Why do you would have. - Dude, you would have the sickest chance. - I did. I gotta get on a suck of tape. - I can't out there. - I just can't. - I would be destroyed. - You should read my comments. (laughing) - A (beep) (laughing) - So that's actually something we were talking about. (beep) - You know, we were talking about your team. - Yeah, cool. - What I'm interested in to find out is so like. - Yeah. - Both of us are industry and industry adjacent pretty much to all the parts of it. - Yeah. - Right? But more of the film and television side. In our generation, the reality has become so (beep) big. - It's crazy. - It's crazy. And now that there's actually like, there's a consistent career in reality in a way that I feel like you're on the leading edge of it. - I hope so. (laughing) - I hope so. But since people like us, how the (beep) does that even work? Because there's no trajectory. You're basically a pioneer in this field that's like, what the (beep) like how do you map out 10 years? - You don't. - You don't, right? - It's just like, okay, so this is my 10th year, isn't it? Isn't that great? In 2016? - No. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I did my first show when I was 19 and 29 now. - Yeah. - So it was called Heartbreak Island. - You dropped out of university, right? - Yeah, happy. - When I'm Facebook, I saw that. - Yeah, yeah. - It's so hard to drop out. Like, what's the point of this shit? (laughing) - You're a scholar at that, right? - Yeah, I was crushing it. - I was doing arts. I was like, a painting titties and stuff. - Well, that's not what I was doing. - Wait, can I buy in a red? - Yeah, that's why we went to film school. - Yeah. - That's why I shoot them. - Yeah. - I shoot two brushes at the time. - Yeah. - It's actually really weird. It's kind of strange because you're not really like, like, I've never been a series regular. Like, you just do one season and then it's like, well, they wouldn't cast you again 'cause they need a new cast. I'm like, idiots. - 'Cause you can't go back. - Yeah. - Yeah, like, ooh. - He's like, he just wants one again. - Yeah, exactly. - Maybe he'll find the lead. - Yeah. - You can find it. You can find it again. - Five shows later. It's five dating shows later. Here we are. Because so my my wife's a big real.
reality TV fan in general, she watches all of them. And now that I've been watching them with her, I'm noticing people have seen from other things. There was a definitive pipeline. - Yeah, they're starting to sprinkle across, like I think Netflix pioneered it where they had, one of my best friends, Rich, who's there. He started like, "Oh, we should just try and put more talent on different stuff." And then they started to like really build that people. But the reason why I think it's so good is 'cause it's such a low lift for a consumer. Like you just put it on in the background, whatever else, like people just getting drunk and hooking up, whatever. But if you're watching a movie, like you've got to actually watch it on the stand, whereas like if you watch Love Island, like it doesn't matter if you missed last night, it's still the same people. Okay, cool, they're just kissing each other and being like super annoying, love them so much. - Yeah, but it's on every day. - It's on every day. - It's shocking. - It's shocking. - Dude. - But you get to watch this communal still, you're still hanging out watching it. I watch 90 day fiancee every week with my fiancee. - Really? - Yeah. - And it's just like you throw it out of the crossword, yeah. - I checked how many days until my wedding the other day. '87, I should've had a 90 day fiancee fucking party. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - I really fucked up. - Move the wedding. - Yeah, three days later. - Three days later. - I just can't look, guys, we're just gonna, big potty. - Big 90 days. - Yeah, I think they'd be out there. - But yeah, I think it's just 'cause there's no commitment, right? Like as an audience, it's just, and it's the easiest stuff to judge. - Yeah. - 'Cause it's just like, it's people just being themselves but maybe amplified version of themselves. So it's just like, you, it's, I don't know, it's, I don't think, you don't really have, like as a consumer, it's just like no effort. Like you just put it on. - When I first saw you, Harry, it was on too hot to handle. - Yeah. - It was Netflix was that 2021, maybe? - 2021, yeah. - And you were just a fucking funny guy. - Dude. - And I think that's what we're missing is like, you were a devious guy. - Yeah. - You were there, they were taking money away 'cause you're not allowed to kiss or anything. - Dude. - And you're, - Don't need the money. - You don't need the money. - Maybe, (beep) (laughing) - And they're like, oh, if you do that again, you lose like 500 more bucks. I'm gonna Harry sneak it off again. - Get 500. - But you got yourself as a character so well and it has to be amplified a bit. But your timing is not fake, you know? So you came in from like a comedic background that just, you know, cracked me up. And then that's why I would, you know, would follow you on to the next show. So you created your own character. - So it's personalities. - Yeah, it's like if a team show, if I was on the wire and the same characters on this brand, which can't happen, it's two different universe, really can. - I'm not sure if that is the real Harry. - Well, oh, it's honestly not. No, like, like, pretty much like the, so when I did to what the handle, I already had a game plan going in 'cause luckily I did a show before and I was like, oh, I'm not gonna be friends with these people after it. - Yeah, really? - Like, and this is, yeah, literally. I was like, and it's also like, this is one of Netflix's first ever reality show. So if I don't be crazy, I'm gonna be forgotten. - Yeah, yeah. - So then I was just like, okay, cool, like, my brain was automatically like, I'm not gonna win this. I may as well just be the dickhead that is like, that they have to keep on because he's in the middle of every conversation. Like, remember the first day I went to all the guys. I was like, hey, look, gonna be honest. Not gonna be your friend after this. And I'm gonna talk shit about every single one of you in my interview. So make sure you remember that 'cause I wanted them to go on their interview and be like, yeah, Harry, Harry sucks. Yeah, so you like have to think about it like that. So, and then also like, on those shows, 'cause it's only eight episodes, every three days is one episode. So like every three days is 40 minutes. And I'm like, how do I guarantee 40 minutes? So I'm just like, I'm gonna be crazy. When they've read the rules out of like, hey, don't have sex or don't do this stuff, I'm like, should probably do that. - Yeah, that's the best exposure. - What you should do and make everyone angry. 'Cause like, also at the time I was dead broke. Like, I really needed the money. But I was like, if we do, 'cause I won the first show, I was like, if we do win, we have to wait a year. And then like, two months after the show comes out to receive that money, so like, money's good is not having it. - So it's actually just like two months. - Be crazy. - I will say though, that there is, I think, judging from that to now, and you as an, like a human sitting there, 'cause you and I met at, where we met at like a parasolton product. - Oh yeah. - I was lit. - So I barely remember. - Brother, you were lit. (laughing) - Yeah, I was like, do we seriously know each other? 'Cause you're like, hug me and shit. I was like, this is my best friend. (laughing) - Yeah, my friend was like, you guys, even at my lowest in wholesome, still dialed in. You were so good. And then I met your wife, and I was like, this is like, very funny man. - This is the craziest situation ever. My friend was like, "Allian, guys, know each other?" I was like, I think we just met. (laughing) - See, I was playing a game too. - You was like, this guy, I want him to be my friend. Now I know how. I'm going to just pretend like we know each other for a couple of years. - Yeah, so annoying with like, people that you see on TV. It's like, do I actually know them? - People probably think they know you all the time, right? Like, I feel like I've known you 'cause I've seen you on TV so much. - Yeah. - Part of what I wanted to get into with that is, a little bit is like, so that's your personality on reality, and then your personality as a human in real life. Those things are very different. So you had a self-preservation on, let's say like, too hot to handle. I'm broke. I need to make something happen outside of this. And then the pipeline that you laid out for yourself to get to that next stage is you're like, "Well, I'm actually a cool dude." And I've thought of this all along, which is really smart, in my opinion. How do you just keep that rolling now? Like, brother. - No idea. (laughing) - No, here's the thing. I think being blessed enough to be in LA and not saying no to stuff. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Like reality TV is a little bit fleeting 'cause it's not like you're doing auditions. Like you can be like, "Oh, I had 50 auditions this week "and got a call back or whatever else." It's just like, del-texture. I'm like, would you, like, are you available in like a month or so to do this shit? - No question. Do you think being 65 with an Australian accent helps at all? - No. (laughing) - No. I think maybe they're hot, but like they're skiing like, no, but 'cause like Middle America doesn't relate to me. - Oh yeah, I can do that. - Yeah. - 'Cause like, you gotta think, like, when I first came on the show, like I had such a strong accent and you think about like Netflix or like Hulu and all these like big companies, they want Americans. Like they want to target Americans. Like an international audience. Like if they want an Australian guy, they're doing Australian shows. - They're gonna just like done that. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - But like, you go, like that's, I think I go lucky 'cause my accent goes super soft, like from being here for so long. - Yeah. - So like probably the hot and the fact that I can say more stuff and get away with it, 'cause like if Americans say they're like, "Well, he's being a dick." - Yeah, you got the cuteness. - Yeah, it's like Harry's just an asshole. - Yeah, it's just Harry. - We had this friend, my brother and I had this friend growing up and she insisted on always dating British and Australian guys and she would always get a heartbroken by these guys and she was like, you know, they'd come around and they'd be just bad younger guys. They were just bad guys. - It's my best friends. - Yeah. - They were just bad guys and she was like, "But I just love 'em so much." And I was like, I think you're blinded by the fact they could say literally anything in that accent and you eat it up. - Yeah, that's why I go lucky. First couple years and then I was like, "Man, I've actually done a good person." (laughing) - No, but he's with reality TV. I got so lucky that I've done like, I think I've done like maybe 10 or 11 now. - Yeah. - But now I'm at a point where it's like the last show I just did that's Mary Harry. - Yeah. - I just got to be myself. - Yeah, yeah. - 'Cause I didn't have to fight for screen time. Like I didn't have to fight and be like, "Oh, I need to put on a persona." It's just like, no, we're just gonna, you just do your thing and then you have these amazing, amazing cast of people that that's where the drama's gonna be but you just be yourself. And I think that like after I did that's Mary Harry, I was like, "Oh, I could just be myself." - Yeah. - And it's all good. - You were vulnerable. You were actually yourself on Let's Mary Harry? - Dude, it's actually-- - You said it's sick. - Dude, it was one of the most eye-opening, beautiful, incredible, hard, difficult experiences I've ever done. Like it was really emotional for me. Actually, I cried a lot of stuff. But these were like real tears. These were like, came from like a real, hard place, like revisiting stuff when my dad had passed. Like it was real, real intense. So I'm really excited to be able to see it. Hopefully they're like, this is cool. If we want to watch it or like get this guy the f*** off. (laughing) I mean, but let's cry. (laughing) Give yourself some credit to dude. Like because not everybody, there's been a lot of personalities in any of our businesses. It does take, you know, the cream does rise to the top. Okay, to some degree, your natural personality who you are is desirable by an audience. You can't fully shoe it out the window. Like you could say, you know, you put on heirs or you do this or do that. But if you didn't have some sort of electricity, you just wouldn't be working. - Maybe it's the height. - Maybe it's the Australian accent. (laughing) - That's really sweet. Well, yeah, you're right. It is also like showing up too. And I think like that's been the biggest thing is, just always saying yes to like random shit. 'Cause you never know. But also being in our ladies like the biggest thing. - Did you move here right after or too high? - No, I moved to end of 2019. And then fires hit Australia like really bad. And my mom was like, can you come back and help with animals? - Was your house okay? - Yeah, my mom was like, I'm not leaving. I'm like, mom, get the f*** out of the house. Like it shit's crazy. - So wait, you have animals, how many animals? - Ah, you have, you have emus? - No, we don't have emus. But we should get some. There's emu races from my hometown. - And no shit. - Have you seen them? - People are not. - Yeah, people are not. - You can do it for the wait room. - It's a real thing. People don't know. - Would you do race? - Yes. - Wow, sure. - This is a real deal. - Great start for Brexit. Good start for Kim Kardashian. After that crew move. (laughing) - Brexit in the end. - Brexit in the end. - They do this. - And you've been live? - No, I haven't been live. - Live on Instagram? - No, like live to, like. - I go live every day. - No, I don't go live with your emus. - Yeah, in person to the show. - No, brother. - I need to travel rides. - Oh, that'd be fun. - Travel races. - But you moved to Los Angeles. You probably don't know anyone, right? - No, no one. - So what do you know? - I just read this guy. - He's my best friend. - Yeah, he's my best friend. - So yeah, you didn't know anyone coming out. - Yeah.
- How'd you, how'd you plant roots out here? - Dude, so I wouldn't have moved at the end of 2019. I was kinda lucky, 'cause hide was open, all the cool places were open, and I was kinda just like telling everyone that I was the guy. - Yeah, he was just getting like over there. - Well, I was sick as hell, by the way. - Just to walk in your place and be like, I'm the guy. - I'm the guy. - I was too hot to handle. - I was the horny guy. - I'm Mr. Hot, the hot guy. - No, 'cause I would be out and they'd be like, oh, 'cause Australians, they kinda ran it, right? And six, five, and skinny. So I walked in the place with my boy moved over with me as well. And he's from New Zealand. So he's just like, yeah, like, I don't know if you guys got an Netflix, they're doing reality now. - You were the guy though, that's cool. - Yeah, yeah, we were just big out. The dude reality TV, it's gonna happen. But the problem is, 'cause reality TV, you don't know when it comes out, like they'd tell you one month before, so they got a cast announcement next week. - Oh, so you were just like waiting out of that? - I thought it was coming in December. - In December, yeah. - In summer, and my summer is December, so I flew out and moved out. - I'll be here for the release. - Guys, let's go, summertime is like, why the fuck is it called this December? - Yeah, it's freezing. - I swear I'm in a Netflix show. - Yeah, every chicken walks by, yeah. - Yeah, 'cause everyone's like, they don't do reality TV in them, or whatever, but no, I think just being a club rat and being out and going to house parties and embarrassing myself, like you just kinda meet everyone, and then the show comes out, and then you're the coolest person for a month and then no one cares about you. - You got one solid month, dude. And it was cool. - It was cool. - Six months, the problem was, couldn't be cool outside, was only cool in my apartment with my 500 roommates. Yeah, 'cause-- - This is COVID, yeah. - 'Cause COVID. - Jesus Christ. - Oh, that's right. - But because I'm on reality TV, you kinda get away with a lot of shit. - Yeah. - So I just just went out. - Okay, so this is maybe, I guess, two insider baseball behind the scenes, but do you get, for reality, do you get paid at the door, do you get paid on release? - At the door. - At the door, okay. - So then you already had your little cushion, you could hang out. - No. - No, bro, you spent that at half. - No, it's not like money. It's not like real life. Money, it's like invisible. Money that doesn't exist. Like it's not real. It's like, two at the hand, it was like 250 dollars a week. - Yeah, yeah. - You said last word, that lasts you two weeks in Los Angeles, then. - I didn't, I didn't, no. I like, I think I spent it. I came on here with like $3,000 in my account. I sold everything I had. And then I'm like, what do we do? - The worst thing in the world, I think, is you go on one reality show and then never again. - Yeah. - 'Cause you're like, oh, man, there's just like a set. - Well, the problem is on reality TV, it's 'cause it's not really like earned. - Yeah. - It's just like given. People get the most interesting egos. - Yeah. - A lot of the, like, that's the thing that I really was like, acting right, you guys, you guys went to university, you studied it, you're like, (beep) you have to remember a script, you have to fall into the character. There's so much that goes into it, right? There's so much planning. And like for us to just get drunk and have sex over. - Yeah. - Like, you know, like, you just, like it gets, they're like, oh, the reason you get put on a reality thing, show is like, this person is unstable. - Yeah. - This is wild, man. - Wow, I was sitting naked photos and they're like, this guy's fog. - To get cast. - To be on the show. - Yeah. - Yeah. - I'll give you my number after that. - No worry about it. I'll check you at the end. - Thank you. - You've seen it in person. (laughing) - Ah, man, I was drunk. (laughing) - They get a naked photo of you that go, this guy's crazy. - It's gonna be out of your mind. - They supply you tons of booze in a nice place to stay. - So they, they, they, so they kinda limited to two drinks, but yeah, I'm a massive lightweight. So I have the two drinks. - To be a reality star dude. - No, no, no, no. - You would actually have a panic attack. - Yeah. - This guy's shaky. - I can't even be hung over. - Yeah, fuck. - Yeah. - 'Cause I can't even feel this. - No, it's not everyone's getting loaded. - No, bro, so like, some shows, they're super restrictive. Like, I wanted it perfect match. - Yeah. - Everyone, so it was like kind of like the Netflix avengers of like dating shows that, like, never made it, right? So like, when I did that, everyone had figured, like, they know a system on the show. Like, they know how to make it work. So everyone's like smuggling booze. - Yeah. (laughing) - Yeah, it's funny. - Dude, so it's like, everyone would drink their water but, huh. (laughing) - Yeah. - Why did you get that water? - Don't worry about that. - Yeah, die compared to that. - Literally. - It's alkaline. - Yeah, bro. And there was one day, this is one challenge, where we were in an event, like, seven hours. 'Cause again, you don't know anything. That's kind of the beauty of it. - You don't know what's gonna happen next. - Where are you going? - You don't know what we're doing. - Yeah, fuck. - Yeah, it's like, hey, guys, wake up. We're gonna shoot some morning scenes, like, you guys getting up and talking and whatever else and do professionals. And then it's like, today's a challenge day. So get ready for challenge. Like, you might be swimming, you might not be. In the van, and they'd separated the guys and the girls. And I was like, the boys, the boys day, six, five. One of the guys had a whole bottle of vodka that he smuggled off set in his bag. And we're like, we're about to have a best day ever. It starts raining. They don't tell us that, like, hey, you were being rained out. So we're just like, in this van, like, - Oh, fuck. - Take it on the shot. And like, I had, like, pre-workout. So we're having vodka and pre-workout. - Meal for lotion. - Just dry whipping. - Dry, like, literally chasing the pre-workout with vodka. - Trying to figure out which one I chased with. I might chase with the pre-workout. - Dude, it was like, it was crazy. So we're sitting there in this van. And we're getting, oh, dude, we're getting dry. Like, we're getting absolutely buckled. And then it's like, like, Algas buy another Algas buy it. And I'm like, fuck, man, like, what the fuck's going on? Like, this is crazy. I'm like, what? - Guys, this is a challenge. Like that. So then by the time we get out, they're like, look at us, they're like, the fuck's going on. Like, what's wrong? - And then it's cool, yeah, yeah, from the car. - Dude, it was like really bad. And then they're like, oh, actually, you're not really getting, like, it's not really a boys day. - Surprise, here's all the girls you guys rejected. - Oh no. - And so they come in, they're heavy. They're like, 'cause you rejected them. - Pretty much, so they're like, how the show works is that's the worst nightmare? - The worst thing I'm like, no, how the show works is kind of your, so you're in the house, you're in the villa. And if you're a match with someone, you're all good. Like you say in the villa. If you don't want to match with someone, then they essentially like, go home. We'll go back to the hotel. So it was kind of the end of the show and no one was changing the matches 'cause everyone was too afraid to get canceled. And then we get there and we're like, oh, we're being rewarded for being loyal guys. So the boys are celebrating. And then all these girls come out and they're angry and I'm like, the fuck's going on? Like, if you watch the show, you see me look up. I've got goggles on my head and it's snorkel. And I'm like, what? (laughing) Dude, if you find it, I look like the biggest idiot. I'm like running around ruined the day. But then like that produces 'cause they're like, we don't have a show like there's no drama. So there's like a scene where like one of the guys is like about to kiss one of the girls and we're like, save the show, save the show. And you like see it briefly. And then like, I remember one of the producers pulled me and he's like, man, we don't have a show like that. There's no drama. And you know, we hired you guys to like to be crazy. Yeah, and like kiss all the girls and be nuts. Like, how are you, what are you doing man? Like this isn't you and I'm like, you're right. (laughing) Yeah, where are the girls? Yeah, I did. I rode the shot. That's crazy to get a pep talk from a producer to be like, 'cause if you're acting, it's in the script. You're like, okay, we're not getting enough drama from you right now. We got to change things around. But if they're telling you is a human being to amput up, you're like, what the fuck am I supposed to do? Is this someone's heart? Yeah. Well, that's how it works. That's insane. It's kind of weird. But like, it's interesting, 'cause I think some people, you could say that stuff too. Like, I guess I was just the easy target. 'Cause I'm like, I get it. Like, whatever's good for the show is good for me. Yeah. And then after, I'm like, that's actually not good for me. Yeah. That was actually the worst thing I did. I was like, I can do it. Well, 'cause then after, immediately I was so drunk, I didn't remember it. And I was like, the camera's from me to catch it. And they didn't, but forgetting that we had marks on. No, not kissing everyone. So yeah. That would be, that would actually, I mean, that's terrifying. I think any human alive that was drunk, if you put a camera on them for like three hours, they would wake up and be like, that's terrifying. Dude. And the worst thing was, you don't watch it back or know what's in it until a year later. So you're watching it with us, essentially. Yeah. At the same time. Yeah. I'm pretty sure I didn't get that girl. And then I watched it, I was like, I pretty much kissed that girl. I didn't get that girl. And I was like, this guy's a (beep) dick. Yeah. Yeah. Why would he kiss that girl? How much do they actually skew, though? Like, they got a cherry pick, some things, some make like, do they build character in post a lot of time? This is something I've always wondered like. Some people, you know, 'cause they're only showing, let's say, an hour of three days period, but they're filming for three days. You could be nice for the majority of those hours, and then they pick the one time, and they build the character all throughout it. It is, it's super massage. Like it's super like, if me and you had, like, if we're eating lunch, right? And you eat a little bit of my freedom angry about it, right? They'll always be a producer between us until they have the big camera set up. 'Cause usually in the house, it's like 65 fixed cams, right? But if they know that me and you're about to explode at each other, I was on a show and it took up three days for me and this guy to have a conversation. By the time I had to talk to him, I was gonna kill him. I'm like, I'm so angry. And then we started talking, I was like, oh, I don't even care. We literally couldn't even talk. We'd go to talk in the morning and produce and fly in and stop us. So they built it up and then when you're in the confessional, so using the confessional, it's like you're sitting there and it's a producer just under the camera. So you're kind of just talking to him. And because on these shows, you gotta think, you don't have anything.
You don't have your phone, your friends, your family, you don't have anything, so you don't have a, you can't go to a board of directors and be like, "Guys, am I making the right decision wrong decision?" All you do is you overthink. So every, all you do on all day long is thinking about everything. And because they're not giving you, like they're not telling you any information, like is there a challenge? Like you're always trying to figure out what the patent is. So every three days, okay, a elimination. Then the next day a challenge, then a elimination. So you're always trying to figure out what, the patent and what's going on, but like you're constantly overthinking this stuff. So like when someone is like starting to brew up, you have that producer sitting on the thing and they'll just say something that will trigger you. - Yeah. - It's a joke to find. - Yeah, they'll be like, "Oh, you didn't, oh, I think you're pretty sure you said you were being an asshole, like how do you feel about that?" And you're like, "Oh, I didn't hear that." And they're like, "Oh, my bad, I shouldn't, for the. " - Dylan's in here is a prick, yeah. - Yeah. - So then you. - No, he said he has a nice prick. (laughing) - What the (beep) No, but you'll be sitting there the whole day like (beep) like does he actually like me or is he talking shit about me? - And you can't just walk over and talk to him. - You can't just walk over and be like, they let it like, fester and build up and build up and build up. - That's enough to make any sane person crazy. I mean, that's like, it's kind of a deprivation tank. The thing that I'm always laugh about, 'cause it feels like watching a scary movie where you're like, "No, don't go in there." Is when I'm watching these reality shows with Barbara, and they've been hanging out for a period of two days and they're like, "I'm just so mad "the love of my life hurt my feelings." I go, "Well, it's been two days, dude." Like, come on, but then when you're telling me you're removed from everything, that's gonna be the longest 48 hours. You're like, it feels like a week. - Well, so before that leading up to the show, is they usually take your phone a week or two weeks before, so they didn't talk to anyone. - So you can't talk to anyone. So like two weeks, so you gotta think that people in love island right now have probably been there for two or three weeks without a phone. So they don't know what's going on. They haven't spoken to their family or whatever else. Like they don't know what's going on in the news or whatever. So when you're in that house and it's two days and someone's crying, it legitimately feels like, 'cause it feels like a week, it feels like. Yeah, and then if someone's like, oh, they get eliminated, like they're just going home. But like for us, it's like, they've just been eliminated out of that universe. Like, they're pretty much dead. That's why people cry, but they're sexy prisoned. - Yeah, it's through, they're just like, they're going back to Miami to have sex with all people. - It's so good. - And you're crying, yeah. - Oh, wait. Why would they do that? It's like, they're going home. - Like, it's fine. Like, they're gonna be okay. They get to cool their mom. Like, it's so nice. Like, do you ever make like a great guy friend though in there? - Yeah, my best friend, Dom. - I'm sure, it feels like a good environment if you have to like stick together. - Yeah, 'cause you're just working out and hanging with your boys. - It's pretty much, and getting drunk. - Yeah. - And talking to girls. - That's a heck no. - Stop. - Yeah, please. - Oh no. - That's terrible. - That's terrible. - No, it's like, it is, guys. Like, you always find like, there's some people that you really get along with, but again, everyone's caused 'cause they have massive characters. You know what I mean? - The biggest ego ever. And then also it's like, oh, I'm on a TV show. I must be like, super important. - That's fucking yeah. - Coolest guy ever. And they're telling their whole friends, their family, whatever else. And everyone's super interested in them. So then you think, like, everyone comes in. Like, inflated ego is like, and I was guilty of that for sure. - Of course. - Like, I was so excited. I'm like, okay, cool. Like, this is the best thing ever. And then you come, like, move the hell out. It's like actual celebrities that have careers. And then a nice, and doing shit. And it's like, oh, well, you know what? I'm a really small person. You know what's funny? There's a weird parallel between when my brother and I were doing Disney Channel when we were younger, we noticed there was a common thread in all of the, all of the leads of the shows. We're all from, like, low-income families from Texas, California, and they all, like, the kind of big break was the show, right? So in a lot of ways, we, Colin, I started to notice for a lot of these actors and actresses, they had this weird kind of feeling of being chosen. When it did happen and they started to receive success, there was almost this feeling of being like, well, now I deserve it because I came from nothing. And now I'm picked to do this. But then on the flip side, it was also really easy for a lot of these companies. I'm not saying this in, like, a malicious way, like, oh, all this happened. But it's easier for a company to say, hey, this is how much money you're gonna make and it looks like it's low. If you're coming from a low-income family, and they go, this is the biggest thing I've ever seen last year. You know, when my brother and I talk about, like, the mania that overtakes, like, child stars, 'cause that's a thing that everyone wants to talk about. How'd you make it out? - Well, I wanna whack you. - He loves drinking. - Yeah, I said he didn't make it. - I mean, only one of us did it. - Only one of us did, though. - But he goes, you know, we're talking and they're like, you know, you're not psycho, like the rest of them. And I'm like, well, first off. - I am. - Definitely totally are. - Well, totally are. - What's going on in a minute? - Shust in a different way. But I go, well, a lot of them are (beep) going insane because they're now taking care of their families who the highest income earner is the kid inside of there. And they're the channel that's supporting this entire thing is fully taking advantage of that situation. And weirdly, there's a parallel, like it almost kind of looks like that from the distance from me with the reality. - Except you guys are 18 and you're having sex. - Yeah, on sex. - The most fun. (upbeat music) - So now you're out here and do you guys film, you film, let's marry here here? - Yeah, we filmed it in LA. - And this was a big change. - You're telling us, 100% now, it's real. - Yeah. - And it's really here. And he's looking for love. - Dude, it was. - You're a liar, dude. - I trust him. - I trust him. - Thank you so much. - It's my best friend. - You're a big D-ranked. - Yeah, you're a D-ranked. - I'm out. - Actually, Wes Cole. - No, it's awful. - But you'll love him. (laughing) - Don't know. - It was really nice because it was a mature show. - Yeah. - Whereas to the handle, I did it when I was like 21. - Like there's mature women on it. - There's mature women on it. I was mature, I had my friends there helping through the whole thing. Yeah, and my best friend, Sonny, he like hates this world. Like he doesn't care about it at all. Like he's just a real friend. - Yeah. - So he would just be like, you being a dick. Like he would just-- - What's the guy to bring it? - The perfect guy. - Kind of sick that Netflix opened the doors to the squad though. - Yeah, I don't have it. - Yeah. I got really lucky with people that came on and that we're helping through the whole thing 'cause it's also like, it's such a daunting thing 'cause you're like, oh (beep) I remember just going like, am I the right guy for this? Like this is crazy. Like this is then, my name is in the title. How do you have the (beep) that I never get in the show? - Yeah, I never understand herald. - But Harry's crazy. - Harry's crazy. - Yeah, that makes sense. But I always just sit there, I was like, (beep) so much pressure. But then also on top of that, like trying to find your perfect person and then having your friends and X, they're helping pick it. It was like the most-- - You're right. - That was with you, too? - Yeah. - Jeez. - Just sabotaging. - Guys, you get it. - It's crazy. - I'm sorry. - I'm sorry, I'm sorry. - How many ladies, come on. (laughing) - I think it was 20. - 20 ladies? Who is the, 'cause this is crazy to me. Who is the person in charge of casting? That was like, Harry's gonna like this girl or Harry's not gonna like this. Maybe some of 'em are cast because you're like-- - Unless you want the-- - Yeah, you want a little bit of a headbutt. - Why'd you do that? - Fistic. - That's really fistic. - Yeah, you want to get fistic. - Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no. - Harry, you get a fistic, yes. - You know what, Harry, let's get a hairy fistic. - Yeah, that's season two. - That's just hairy. - That's hairy, dude. - I don't know, that's just, I don't like it that bad, but it's, yeah, you know, I'll be honest. - I'll be honest. - I'll be honest, after my hide, we're back, baby. - There he is. - No, so I, 'cause it was like public, like it came out, so I was like, yeah, guys, like please sign up. - Oh, people sent in tryouts, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I, I mean-- - Was it one of your homes? It was like, yes, no, yes, no. - Well, so Rich is the head of a kind of like, casting a stuff at Netflix. One of my absolute best friends, like Do Chris is with him, love his family. - Okay. - The best guy ever. - That certainly helps, I think, in the casting process. - Yeah, it was like, all right, I just-- - He knows you, you know? - Literally, like, and he was thinking, he's like, who's gonna come and hang out at Christmas with us and my family, you know? - Yeah, 'cause it's, he's actually casting for himself. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - So like a real life friend and then Alex Cooper, who was on the back end as well, like she helped pick the girls and like-- - Oh, that's fun. - It was like a real family process, which was good, 'cause I, again, like, having so many years, like doing so many Netflix shows and like, working so closely with that team, and just like hanging out with them, and being real life friends, made it so much easier, and like, maybe trust the process a little bit more too, 'cause I was like, oh, well, this is just like, oh, like, behind the scenes, like, even there was like guys that did my first ever show with, like, the sound, these are camera guys, like, being on set, like, it was-- - That's awesome. - It was cool. - That's kind of the dream. - It was a dream. - Yeah, it was such a beautiful process. Obviously, really stressful. And again, can't stress enough. A lot of fucking tears. - Yeah, yeah. - Like, a lot. Like, dude, I've-- - Like, a couple of reasons. - I would just be, yes. That would be like, if you don't have to come too much to drink, I'd be like, where the fuck am I crying? - Are you a drunk cryer? - No, it's not, like, in that environment, of course. I mean, I was either like the happiest person ever, but like, a lot of these conversations, 'cause it's not like, it's me. That kind of, it's like, real deep stuff. And because it's like, you're trying to learn about someone so quick, like, in such a short amount of time, it's like, you're kind of just like, skipping any like, fun, geeky conversations. So now you're in now you have
a lot more creative control over that show. Do you subsequently enforce the no phone, no contact, no rules that you were used to? Or were you in a lot more communication with people this summer on? They gave me my phone once a week. Okay, so there is still a level of like, kind of the deprivation tank. Yeah, so I would, to be honest, it's so nice to not have a phone. Like, you sleep is so much better. You just like, what do you do? I'm seeing them like, "Oh, I got in school. I'm going to go to sleep." Might as well go to sleep. I would, that's my nightmare. I really? Just being alone with my thoughts, I would just, I'd explode. I'd never go to sleep. Just think it all night long. All night long, I think. No, in women are sleeping near you too. Do you google any of the women you're dating? Yeah, I do. Yeah, I feel like, I feel like, I'm trying to connect the dots because like, some of them, we had a ton of mutual friends. Yeah. Oh, and then you're like, "Oh, yeah. You know, Bazzi's on there. That's not good." Yeah. You guys know each other, right? He's the man. Oh, he's the best. He's a beautiful guy. He just wants to pass off. But if I ever see Bazzi following a girl, I would just, I would block him. Yeah, because he's just like, "Automat." But knowing me about him, is he as a dreamy guy? Yeah. And he can sing. You singing your wedding now? No, because the Netflix one. I was like, "Can we, because I said I'm kind of a crazy guest list." I was like, "Can we get Chris Angel there? Because we need an invitation." So sick, pulled by that. The wedding in Chris Angel, I would be so happy. Yeah, it does. Dude, I was like, I need him to levitate me. No, the problem was, because like you said, like before the show even started, you kind of submit your guest list. You know you're going to get married. Yeah, you're like top Chris Angel. Yeah, they're like, "Maybe the girl who wants to marry me." But first, Chris. No, because they were like, I remember halfway through filming. They're like, "Hey, so we're reaching out to the list of people." Have you got a contact with Chris Angel? I'm like, no. I assume you would. Yeah. You got Netflix. I think you sent him a raven. I don't think you have a contact name. He's named three times in a mirror. Yeah, there he is. That was the thing, because I put a bunch of red and like, like Hail Mary's in there in between like real-life friends. Did any bite? No. No. Because they were so sick. Like, who were some other Hail Mary's? I remember, I was just like, I was loving like, I wanted Paris Hilton and DJ. That would have been cool. But then I'm like, there's probably a fee associated to that. And there's this cool as well. She's the coolest person ever. Like, and her husband's the man. Yeah, he is so lovely. Every time I've had an interaction with Paris, and I've met her for many years over my life, but always like, here at Peace, I was always like, you're the nicest person. And you don't have to be. Yeah, you really don't. You're just a nice person. Even just the people when I met him, I'm like, punch me in the head. Yeah. Do something. Like, you could literally kick me in the face. I'm like, yeah, this J.B. Here's my, like, I'm generally pessimistic about a lot of things just because I'm a grump, but the, the, I am optimistic about the fact that in order to achieve great success, and I'm not talking like moderates, like here and there, great success, you do have to have a faculty about you that's easy to love. If you, if you're not easy to get along with, you're never going to make it all the way up there. True. It's a good boy. Because if people don't want to work with you, it'll naturally weed its way out. So if people can spot the heart in you, then you'll, you'll make it far. Always. Okay, I'm going to, I'm going to work on that. No, you're doing a hard job. You're doing it so far. You're, I'm not, I'm not sexy, I'm running you. I can't do it now. Yeah. That's time. Dude, I put, I put PIP on my ****. We work with PIP on DAS. What's PIP? PIP. PIP. So they spin, they pull your blood out. My friend did it, and he's like, it's great. And so I made a few people do it. We were talking about this. No, all last night. I wanted to ask you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, so they're like, there's this guy in Beverly Hills. You can do it anywhere, I guess. And they spin your blood. They pull the white blood cells out, and then they just whack it and you dig. But then you can get Botox and it, which like loosens the muscle, which helps it like more shaking it. What are the white blood cells do? I actually don't know. You know what I'm looking at. Someone just stabbed you with white blood cells. You can't just not know and put a needle in your penis. What are you talking about? Six needles. Six? Yeah, it was kind of hard. Yeah. The guy or girl, dude, it's a needle in your dick. Yeah, Dr. Cohen. He's got the nicest hands ever. It was, oh, a guy did it. Of course. I could do it then. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I wouldn't want a nurse doing that. That's it. It's embarrassing. It's like, look at it. It's scared. It's a needle going into it. Wait a second. So yeah, it went through all the other side of my leg. I'm like, brother. Not that thing. Yeah, that's a low needle. It's a low needle. The needles they use on me are dizzy. I don't know. I don't know. So wait, so what's the goal of getting Botox and the penis? That's a good question. Smoother look. I mean empirically, I'll tell you this. Not knowing what the goal is. Funny and sick as hell. I've done it three times. It looks like a hot dog one. It's smooth across. Yeah, it didn't submit in the game. No one's ever seen it. Wait, but why would you want a wrinkle list? Why would you want a wrinkle? Because you friction. It feels yeah, but it grows. You need a wrinkle in there. You don't want to, like, aloved up, like, you know, what happens when it what happens when it deflates? You know what he's telling us? He's telling us he's a shower. Because if it shrinks and grows six, five. Yeah. If it's a shower compared to me, no, no, no, I'm a grower for sure. Why do you know, why do you know what wrinkles? I did. I don't know. I was just doing it. It's funny. And then I went with my friend and then we went again and again. And I was like, all right, like this is getting a bit much. But I'm going to get your balls. You can do it in your balls, but like it's, I don't want them down there. It's disgusting. But that's way funnier to be real for the Botox and the PRP. Yeah, essentially it makes it fatter and like hangs heavy out. So it's, so it's more of a shower. More of a shower. But then when you're hard, it's like fatter and like longer. That's pretty long. That's longer than I've ever had that. So yeah, it's been a deal of a test. Sometimes who goes, I think it's gone today. Like if you're especially hungover. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're just disappointed. You got a teen. I did adder over the first time. Oh, it goes away. It's invisible. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's like, like some of it. Yeah. Like an any. Yeah, I'm like, why is it just a knob? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. It's like peeing. I'm like, where are you? Why am I peeing on my balls? What the hell? Yeah, it's like a belly butt. Yeah, there's two belly buns here. Like guys, what are you doing? I'm gonna see my sack and I'm like, gotta put Botox in it. I'll do it for you guys if you want me to go get Botox in it.
