This is an interesting and exciting moment for you. Jack's got an interview on a podcast, a brilliant podcast, one of the biggest ones in Australia called Imperfects. And Jack is a very deserved special guest on the brand new episode out today.

Thank you for saying, man. If I'm honest, I have a knot in my stomach right now about it coming out.

0:23.6

It's a podcast I love.

0:24.9

It's very vulnerable and open.

0:26.7
