Hi Guys, welcome back to TV Reload. Thank you for clicking or downloading on today’s episode with Kirk Docker one of my favourite TV producers. He is back on the podcast to discuss his new TV series on the ABC called “I was Actually There.” Which is a brilliant follow up to his award winning series You Can’t ask that! 

He has been acknowledged with multiple awards and the You Cant Ask that format is the most successful series in ABC history, selling to 32 territories, and broadcast in 9 different languages world wide. 

When it comes to the content Kirk creates, no subject is off-topic. 

Through Kirk’s work over the years he has acknowledged that every human, no matter what they believe or how high their stature they all share a core value: the desire to be understood. 

Today we unpack the bold new six-part documentary which explores defining moments of our recent history through the eyes, ears and voices of those who witnessed them firsthand. From Port Arthur to the Beatles and even to the depths of the Beaconsfield mines - each topic is compelling and I think you will all walk away wanting to devour the whole series which is available to watch on View right now. 
We will unpack what happened to You Can’t Ask that - if it has run its course. Could it come back and where that conversation is. 
This is a great opportunity to talk about how Kirk manages to get the crucial human elements out of his interviewees. How long it takes to film and edit each episode and what he wants people to feel with his new series. 
We will talk about the companion podcast and what made him want to release longer edits of some of the contributors retellings of their topic.
Kirk shares some really fascinating behind the scenes elements to this show and why he is more fascinated with the nuances and the mannerisms over what is actually being shared

 There is so much to unpack with Kirk. So sit back and relax as we unpack the wonderful world of “I was Actually there.”
