Ep 178: Brendan Cowell (Part 2)

In part 2 of this interview, the editors ask Brendan Cowell about living in London as a hedonistic Aussie thespian. Where was he when his beloved Cronulla Sharks won the 2016 Premiership? How did he celebrate? And how did his life change after getting a start on Game Of Thrones as the Ironborn sea captain, Harrag. Brendan imparts a lot of wisdom on these simply country folk from Betoota - his strongest words of advice, don't catch COVID-19 while living in a rat-infested underground basement apartment in Notting Hill.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
