From the podcast Join The Fray

·24:32

What is it really like to step onto a multi-million dollar Netflix set, enter a massive chocolate room and compete with your own brother for a $3 USD million prize?

In Episode 32 of Join the Fray, 10-year-old host Fraser sits down with Everett Toy - a project manager and reality TV star who recently competed alongside his brother James on Netflix’s hit competition show, Wonka: Golden Ticket!

In this funny, honest and behind-the-scenes tell-all episode, Fraser and Everett talk about:

  • 🍫Walking Into Wonka's World: What it actually felt like stepping into the GIANT studio set for the very first time (and why it looked straight out of the movie)!
  • 😭The Reality of Reality TV: Why Everett found it emotionally draining and how he handled the extreme stress after his brother got terminated!
  • 🎥30 Cameras in Every Room: What happens behind the scenes when the cameras are rolling 24/7 and how contestants form secret alliances under pressure.
  • 💼Life After the Show: How Everett transitioned from recruiter to project manager, and the career inspiration he took from fellow creators and risk-takers on set.
  • ✈️Custom Travel Planning: Everett designs Fraser’s dream vacation based on his favorite trip to Australia (and why he recommends the Caribbean or French Polynesia)!
  • ⚡Rapid-Fire Fun: Fraser’s favourite part of the show – let’s see how Everett does!
