What you'll be asked on this show
Morris begins interviews by establishing the guest's origin story, consistently asking "Where did you grow up?" and about their family and schooling. He then meticulously traces their career path, asking for specifics about the recruitment and training processes ("What were the standards?", "How long was the academy?"). He often draws comparisons between different service cultures, such as the military and police, and uses his own background as a 3RAR veteran to build a bridge with guests from similar fields. For controversial stories, he often frames the interview with a lengthy opening monologue, positioning it as a chance to hear the "true story" away from media spin.
Matty Morris hosts solo, conducting long-form interviews that often exceed two hours. He typically opens with a dramatic monologue summarizing the guest's story before beginning a chronological exploration of their life, starting from childhood. His style is informal and conversational, and he frequently shares his own military experiences to build rapport and context.
