Christian chats with Australian icon Rebecca Gibney as she steps into a bold new chapter, taking over as host of Millionaire Hot Seat on Channel 10. Rebecca opens up about saying yes to the role at 60, admitting it was well outside her comfort zone and inspired by her 91-year-old mum, who encouraged her to give back to the audiences who’ve supported her for decades.

The pair bond over second acts, embracing risk, and the pressure of performing under studio lights. Rebecca reveals the intense reality of filming nearly 200 episodes in just four months, and how emotionally invested she became in contestants, describing the adrenaline, exhaustion, and responsibility that comes with delivering life-changing wins.

They swap stories about quiz-show panic, and laugh over Christian’s infamous “four-legged duck” answer on a UK game show, which he claims still follows him around internationally. 

Warm, self-deprecating, and full of laughs, this is a candid conversation about reinvention, pressure, and why it’s never too late to try something that scares you.
