Mediaweek Podcast 34/2013: Andrew O'Keefe
A fun session with the host of Seven's Deal Or No Deal and Weekend Sunrise.
O'Keefe talks about the 200 episodes he has hosted including the time the series spent in primetime before moving to late afternoons. He reveals the secrets behind the two-day intensive taping sessions in Melbourne and details some of the challenges he has faced over the years when things didn't go according to plan.
He also takes us behind the scenes on Weekend Sunrise and talks about his on-air colleagues and tells us what happened to the Sunrise band. There's also news about his role as King Herod in Jesus Christ Superstar and how this former lawyer negotiates his contracts with Seven.
