Transcript from ‘Life After MTV’s Dirty Sanchez’ podcast

Mathew – We were filming sort of mid to late nineties because Dayton, Danny and a few others we’re always filming skateboarding and us messing about. It wasn’t until we made the video versus Dean that launched and MTV saw that. That’s how it all happened really.

Chris – It’s a hell of a series and I know you hooked up with the marines a few times during the course of that and you went to Lympstone and did all the commando stuff. You did it really well and I was really proud of you guys you know, because it’s a big shocker for anyone rocking up at Lympstone.

Mathew – I used to be fit, I mean I was a skateboarder and then you know Sanchez hit and then my fitness went out the window. Everything was all about partying.

Transcript from ‘Surviving TV’s BIG BROTHER’ podcast

Penny – I thought well blimey, I’ve already told the school who gave me a letter saying we expect you back on the first day after you come out. No one thought it was going to go anywhere and no one knew what reality TV was. So I’ve got a letter saying that I didn’t go to the union, nor got any advice. I didn’t read whatever I signed. You know I trusted these people and then they said they lost my tape, so they couldn’t add me in before anyway.

I thought well that’s it and then a couple of weeks later, one of the guys said, oh I want to redo your tape. Then they said we’re definitely having you. On the day I was finishing school I was supposed to go in on the Monday, so I had the weekend to pack my suitcase and all sorts of everything.
