Bryan Brown 'Why is that coming out of my mouth?'

Actor, Author, Producer, and Australian icon Bryan Brown has been on our screens since the 1970s in a career that has captured the hearts of audiences around the world . From a working-class upbringing in Sydney’s West, Bryan has appeared in over 80 films with some of Hollywood's biggest names including his wife Rachel Ward.

Known as the quintessential Aussie Bloke Jess and Bryan dig deep on why women have been a much bigger influence in his life than men, where his strong sense of self comes from, and how he manages an anxiety disorder that presented itself in his 50’s.

Bryan also opens up about working with Tom Cruise, Jennifer Annison, Paul McCartney and Sigourney Weaver. In his latest role Bryan plays the Prime Minister of Australia in the STAN series C*A*U*G*H*T, be sure to listen out for the surprise cameo from our very own Prime Minister in this episode.
