Shaun Micallef's Eve of Destruction - Season 1
Season 1
Episodes
Stephen Curry and Felix Cameron
Shaun interviews the vampire Lestat who unfortunately, because he's a vampire, is unable to reflect on his career.
Rebecca Gibney and Kate Langbroek
There's confusion and a healthy dose of tedium when Jeopardy champion Larry Sprechen answers each of Shaun's questions in the form of a question.
Felicity Ward and Adam Liaw
Shaun's telepathic powers accidentally cause a guest's head to explode mid-anecdote (like in the film Dirty Dancing) and Shaun is forced to apologise.
Robyn Butler and Jimmy Rees
Shaun daringly subverts the chat show format by interviewing a small bird through the language of mime while playing a hammered dulcimer (the bird, not Shaun).
Peter Helliar and Usman Khawaja
Shaun interviews Richard Nixon in this exclusive and very special episode. Given Nixon has been dead since 1994, the conversation is a little one-sided.
Pia Miranda and Zachary Ruane
Shaun sits this episode out and Leigh Sales takes over. Unfortunately, some monkeys attack her half-way through.
Mary Coustas and Tim Rogers
Luis Bunuel is guest director for this extraordinarily confusing episode. The interview consists entirely of close-ups of eyes. It's impossible to tell who the guests are.
Nazeem Hussain and Poh Ling Yeow
Shaun interviews Sir John Mills about From Here to Eternity (1953). Given Sir John is not in the film and hasn't seen it, his knowledge is limited to what's on Wikipedia.
