Hi Guys, welcome back to TV Reload. Thank you for clicking or downloading on today's episode with Nova Peris who was one of this weeks stars booted from Channel Seven's Dancing with the Stars. Which I am still loving… I really love Shane Crawford on this show and boy can Lisa McCune dance. My guest Nova is an Australia legend. Nova is an Aboriginal Australian athlete and former politician. As part of the Australian women's field hockey team at the 1996 Olympic Games, she was the first Aboriginal Australian to win an Olympic gold medal. We have seen her on Survivor and at the moment she is doing sports commentary for the Olympic Games… what an honour it is to talk with her today. I will discuss how hard the rehearsals are and what she really thought of Craig - her dance partner! We will find out exactly what she thought of each judge. With some home truths for two of the line up. There is an opportunity to talk about where she is commentating the Paris Olympics and what it means to still be included in the coverage all these years later. We will discuss the advantages each contestant has and which friend group she found herself in with an unlikely friendship with Ant Middleton! There is so much to talk about with Nova. So sit back and relax as we unpack the wonderful world of Dancing with the stars!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
