TV Central: One on One Podcast

Conor — what a powerhouse. A disability advocate, educator, high-energy larrikin, and someone who lives boldly and unapologetically with Tourette’s.He walked into the Big Brother house with purpose: to represent, to challenge stigma, and to show Australia the real face of Tourette’s — one that’s authentic, unfiltered, funny, big-hearted, and full of personality.From surviving a hit-and-run at just 18 to becoming a proud voice for neurodivergence across the country, Conor uses his experiences to inspire and to connect. Inside the house, he cooked, he laughed, he cried, he confronted, he bonded — and he made one hell of an impression.

Edward came into the game the epitome of an Aussie bloke: beers with mates, the life of the party, a bit of a stirrer when the mood strikes. But behind the cheeky grin is someone grounded, caring, and genuinely big-hearted. The youngest of six, a proud twin, and the friend everyone turns to when life gets tough.He entered the house wanting to prove that kindness, humour, and vulnerability can go the distance — and that nice guys don’t always finish last.His journey was full of highs and lows, and ultimately one of the most surprising exits we’ve seen this season.

What a week it’s been in the Big Brother house:It was sayonara to Holly, and a surprise midnight boot for Vinnie.Coco and Bruce finally shared that much-anticipated first kiss — honestly, it’s been like watching a three-hour Hallmark movie unfold in slow motion.And of course, steering this wild ship with grace, humour and pure hosting brilliance is Mel Tracina. She’s a friend of the show, she’s back for Round 4, and at this point one more appearance and we’re releasing a Best Of compilation.Housemates, this week’s special guest has entered the chat. Please gather in the living room for Mel Tracina!

Born and raised in regional Victoria, Vinnie—also known as Vincent—grew up making wine and salami with his Nonno as part of what he proudly calls “the biggest Italian family in Australia.” After moving out at 18, he built a life in Melbourne, where he now works as a barber.Vinnie radiates charisma. He has that rare mix of confidence, self-assurance, and warmth that makes him instantly magnetic. He knows who he is, doesn’t suffer fools, and has earned a reputation as a bit of a ladies’ man—sharp, charming, and confident, with just a hint of cheeky cockiness.But he’s also faced an unfortunate label in the house: being called “fake.” So today we ask…Will the real Vinnie please stand up?

This is your central hub for all things Big Brother — from eviction interviews to deep dives with host Mel Tracina and the legendary voice of the series, Mike Goldman.Holly is a 31-year-old model from my home state of WA. Others often describe her as “fun with a side of chaos,” but she prefers “a unicorn: fabulous, untamed, and impossible to ignore.” She’s lived and modelled in LA, Milan, and beyond, and that experience has shaped her into someone who can read a room in seconds. She’s sharp, quick with a one-liner, cat-obsessed, had been proudly single, and very aware of the energy she brings into a space. Holly has said she’s not here to be the loudest in the room — she’s here to be the smartest.There is a lot to unpack with Holly today, so we’re going to dive straight in.

This is your central hub for all things Big Brother — where the drama is high, the strategy is sneaky, and the housemates somehow still forget there are cameras literally everywhere.What a week it’s been in the Big Brother house – it went from Love Island Australia to The Real Housewives of Hotel Hell. There was more whinging in the house than at an old people’s bingo game when a mobile phone rings. Mel Tracina has done a fabulous job as host as she oversaw the double eviction of Jane and Mia through a big downpour. She’s a friend of the show, she’s back for Round 3 — ready to talk gameplay, evictions, nominations and the quality of the BOM weather app.

This is Eviction #3 as Mia was the third to say goodbye. Mia is an unapologetic ball of energy—equal parts chaos, charm, and charisma. A proud Sri Lankan Australian and a retail assistant at Bunnings, she brings a huge personality and an even bigger laugh everywhere she goes. She’s passionate about inclusivity and representation, but she’s not afraid to get messy either. Loyal to those she loves, ruthless when crossed, hilariously honest, and never afraid to call it like it is, Mia is the kind of housemate who thrives in chaos.And of course… Mia, where looking for love is just the beginning. (Did that pun work? I tried!)

This is Eviction #2 as Jane was the second to say goodbye. Jane is far from your typical Big Brother housemate. At 67, she’s the oldest contestant in the history of Big Brother Australia, bringing a lifetime of perspective into a game often dominated by younger generations. A single mother of two and grandmother of four, she’s happiest on the golf course with her girlfriends and is known for her no-nonsense, straight-shooting approach to life. She dislikes gossip, tackles conflict head-on, and—despite being an outspoken Donald Trump supporter—entered the house determined to keep her political views to herself. Funny, loyal, and proud to represent the older generation, Jane walked into the house wanting one thing: to win.Unfortunately not meant to be this time. 

This is your central hub for all things Big Brother — where the drama is high, the strategy is sneaky, and the housemates somehow still forget there are cameras literally everywhere.What a week it’s been in the Big Brother house — it’s starting to look so much like the Love Island villa that I’m half-expecting a housemate to tell out ‘I’ve Got a Text”Host Mel Tracina has already been soaked on stage, interviewed our first evictee Michael, and kept the show running through the mayhem of the very first nominations — honestly, she’s handling more pressure than a housemate who hears “Can you come to the Diary Room?” right after they’ve caused chaos.She’s a friend of the show, she’s survived the opening week splash-fest, and she’s back for Round 2 — ready to spill the behind-the-scenes secrets, break down the gameplay, and clarify whether she now needs to bring a towel to work.It is the fabulous and always game-ready… Mel Tracina.For all the latest Big Brother news, interviews and podcasts, keep it right here on TV Central.And don’t forget — keep watching Big Brother on 10, and catch every moment live on the 10 Play app.
