What does it take to tear up a million-dollar check and bet everything on a dream? That's exactly what Tim Gannon did when he walked away from Al Copeland to co-found Outback Steakhouse with just $37 in his pocketIn this episode, Dan Rowe sits down with Tim to unpack the philosophy, partnerships, and food obsession that turned a scrappy steakhouse concept, born from a Crocodile Dundee viewing session, into one of the most iconic casual dining empires in history.Tune in as we explore:(02:03) Tim Gannon's journey from Florence to food(05:55) The dinner that inspired chef-driven casual dining(09:26) ‘Serious Food Meetings' and exacting standards(10:25) Tearing up a million-dollar check(12:09) The four partners and their distinct roles(15:07) How Outback got its name and Australian theme(22:01) The Manager Partner Program that changed lives(28:34) How the partner model fueled explosive growth(30:14) Real estate strategy and the 2:1 sales ratio(35:05) Putting the partner's name above the door(36:34) Lessons from international expansion(39:20) ‘Principles and Beliefs' culture documentOn why knowing your product to exacting standards separates good from greatTim Gannon: "I can eat a Bloomin' Onion today and tell you if it was cooked at 342 or 349 temperature. That's knowing your products to exacting standards. That's what George was."On why making money with people, not from them, is the real business modelTim Gannon: "I wanted to make my money with someone, not for someone. And that was a very important lesson because I knew Al Copeland and he would pay me well, but it would always be kind of his money. I was uncomfortable with that."On why taking care of your people first is the only sequence that worksTim Gannon: "The first commitment was to our Outbackers. Think about your employees first, because if you take care of them, they're going to take care of the guests. Well, the financial guy's going to be happy. The financial results are always going to be there."

Exciting and New

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Mike back on the show as they discuss the 1986 crime drama F/X.  In this frachise starter, a Crocodile Dundee clone is a special effects (F/X, get it?) expert, hired to fake the death of a mob informer, using the power of F/X.  But maybe he really killed him.  Or maybe the whole thing is a con.  There are a lot of twists and turns in this one, and then Tommy Boy's dad show up.  He should have been introduced much earlier in the film.  Anyway this was a very divided flick for the E&N team.  Listen to them argue over the merits (or possibly lack there of) of this movie.  Enjoy the podcast!!Jason, Andy and Dana will discuss a 1986 movie weekly, breaking down all the nonsense there within. The 3 hosts all work together and everyone else around them was getting really annoyed at all the movie talk, so they decided to annoy the world in podcast form.Check out previous seasons to hear them discuss 1982, 1983, 1984 & 1985 movies, as well as a full season of Love Boat episodes (if that is your thing).

The flavor of the month...or maybe that should be the flavor of the last 36 months of the 1980s was Australia.  Crocodile Dundee-mania was huge and Yahoo Serious was briefly relevant.  Surely, someone will incorporate an Aussie into a television show.  Lo and behold, CBS did with a family-oriented sitcom with an Australian live-in nanny, which is merely a blip in television history.

Released in 1986, Crocodile Dundee was directed by Peter Faiman and co-written by Paul Hogan, Ken Shadie, and John Cornell, with Hogan also starring as the now-iconic Mick Dundee. Made on a modest budget of around A$8.8 million, the film was designed to be a broad, crowd-pleasing Australian comedy that could travel internationally — which is exactly what it did, with all the subtlety of a bloke walking into a New York hotel with a knife the size of a paving slab.Filming took place across Australia and the United States, including Queensland, Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory, and New York City. Linda Kozlowski was cast opposite Hogan as American journalist Sue Charlton, while the supporting cast included John Meillon, David Gulpilil, Mark Blum, and Michael Lombard. The film became a worldwide box-office phenomenon, earning more than US$328 million globally and turning Mick Dundee into one of the most recognisable screen characters of the VHS era.TRAILER GUY PLOT SYNOPSISDeep in the Australian Outback, where the wildlife wants to kill you and the locals treat mortal danger as light admin, one man has become a legend. His name is Mick Dundee — hunter, survivor, charmer, and possibly the only man alive who looks at a crocodile and thinks, “G'Day”When a New York journalist travels across the world to meet him, she finds more than just a story. She finds a man who doesn't quite fit into polite society, mostly because polite society has fewer snakes, fewer campfires, and significantly less casual knife work.But when Mick Dundee swaps the Outback for Manhattan, the jungle changes. The predators wear suits, the streets are full of noise, and our hero must face his greatest challenge yet: modern civilisation. Strewth, New York doesn't know what's coming.FUN FACTSCrocodile Dundee was inspired in part by the real-life exploits of Australian bushman Rod Ansell, whose survival story helped feed the mythic quality of Mick Dundee.Paul Hogan was already a major TV personality in Australia before the film, thanks to The Paul Hogan Show, but this movie made him an international star.The screenplay received an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay, which is not bad for a film best remembered by many people for one very specific knife comparison.Paul Hogan won the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy for his performance as Mick Dundee.The film was released in Australia in April 1986 and in the United States in September 1986, where it became a major hit.There are different cuts of the film: the international version was slightly shorter and adjusted some Australian slang for overseas audiences.The famous “Walkabout Creek Hotel” scenes were filmed at the Walkabout Creek Hotel in McKinlay, Queensland, which became a tourist destination after the movie's success.The film was a huge success on UK television, drawing a massive Christmas Day audience when it aired on BBC One in 1989.A restored 4K version, Crocodile Dundee: The Encore Cut, premiered in 2025 with several edits and updates for modern release.MUSICCheckout the parody music from the show on Spotify here.SUPPORT THE SHOWSupport the Show If you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.

Kangaroo Dundee: I gave it all up to become a ‘kangaroo mum'

Chris 'Brolga' Barns fell in love with joeys and became a kangaroo 'mum'. He rescues orphaned baby kangaroos, or joeys, carrying them around in a pillowcase to mimic their mum's pouch. While working as a tour guide in the Australian outback, Brolga would always check the pouches of kangaroos killed by cars lying on the side of the road, where often the joeys would still be alive. The plan was to look after them until they could be released back into the wild, but sometimes they had been injured and couldn't outrun dingoes or bush fires. So Brolga gave up his job to create a kangaroo sanctuary for them in Alice Springs, in Australia's red centre. After leading some land and digging for 18 months to build a giant dingo-proof fence, he spent all his money. He ended up living in a tin shack on site, without any electricity or a toilet, sharing his bed with the orphaned joeys he was caring for. But the visitors he had hoped for did not come, and he had no income. Things were looking bleak. Then he starred in a BBC documentary series called Kangaroo Dundee. The title was a play on the hit comedy film Crocodile Dundee, about a man from the outback who wows everyone in the big city. Brolga's TV appearance wowed too - much to his surprise, he received hundreds of emails from female fans, who were unaware that he had a brand-new girlfriend (now his wife). The show guaranteed the Kangaroo Sanctuary's survival, and Brolga was able to dedicate all his time to mothering orphaned joeys. One of his first rescues, an alpha male kangaroo called Roger, became an internet sensation for always trying to attack his 'mum', Brolga, who he now saw as a rival. And recently some of Brolga's joeys starred in a family film called Kangaroo, inspired by his life.

In this episode, we sit down with Adam Greentree for a wide-ranging, no-filter conversation that starts with fake Australia tourism commercials and Crocodile Dundee nostalgia and quickly turns into something much deeper. Adam breaks down what it really means to leave Australia behind: the landscapes, the wilderness, the freedom to hunt without a calendar, and the difference between fear and awareness. He shares firsthand stories from the Northern Territory, from saltwater crocodiles pushing into camp to the calculated risks of collecting water in croc country, and why many of the most dangerous encounters are never reported. The conversation shifts into mindset and purpose: voluntary suffering, preparation as mental health, and why pursuits like bowhunting, skydiving, and whitewater force you to respect time, consequence, and competence. Adam explains why planning is part of the reward, how reps build clarity under pressure, and why being uncomfortable on your own terms makes you stronger when life doesn't give you a choice. We also dig into hunting, conservation, public land, and freedom, cutting through surface-level arguments to talk about responsibility, balance, and why the tool is never the problem. The episode closes on what matters most: the next hunt, the footage, and the kind of experiences that stay with you forever.

As a man of the urban spaces and city living he would consider it unwise in the least and ultimately a death wish to go about trooping into the wilds of Australia without a proper guide. Indeed, he's found one. A man whom the locals call "Mick". A man that Zo found to be charismatic, fun-loving, thrill seeking, and boisterous. This is a man who's more comfortable in the open wilderness then he ever would be within the four walls of civilized living. A charming fellow who introduces himself as Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee. Episode Segments00:05:37 Opening Credits for "Crocodile" Dundee starring Paul Hogan and Linda Kozlowski00:14:43 Favorite Parts of the 1986 film: "Crocodile" Dundee00:46:22 Trivia from the Action Romantic Comedy "Crocodile" Dundee00:57:38 Critics' Thoughts on Peter Faiman's "Crocodile" Dundee Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media: Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Website: www.backlookcinema.comEmail: fanmail@backlookcinema.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.
