You know, it's pretty hard to keep up with the Kardashians.
Have you watched all the episodes yourself?
Honestly, I just feel like I'm just so busy.
And it's just like we're just always filming,
and I love when we're not.
Yeah.
So, yeah, we're like, here we are back again.
Well, that's right.
It's just like a lot, you know?
Well, because I had seven series of a TV show with my mate Jono.

You're just confused a little bit. Okay, sorry. Yeah, no, it's fine. You're just confused a little bit.
Okay, sorry.
No, I just, I'm not, I just can't give our secrets away.
I just, I can't answer that.
You'll have to ask my mom.
Okay, all right.
Do you have a favorite memory from the 20 series?
You know, because obviously there's been some good stuff.
There's been some bad stuff.
Let's focus on the positive.
Do you have a favorite memory?

Okay.
I mean, I was driving into work this morning and I saw you on a billboard in New Zealand.
Is it crazy to think that you are on a billboard in a country across the world?
I mean, you couldn't walk down the streets without being recognized, right?
I mean, wait, so you're telling me that you saw me in New Zealand yeah on a billboard yeah
was the billboard like attractive I feel like I I'm just I cannot believe that I'm in New Zealand
like I didn't approve of that oh but no when it was from publicity for your show it wasn't just
yeah that was publicity for keeping up with the Kardashians yeah I'm not yeah yeah

We don't need to talk about Travis.
No, we just had a really big fight, and it's really hard to do press.
Oh, I'm sorry. But everything is going to be, yeah, no, it's fine.

No, it was Manuka Honey.
It was the Manuka Doctor.
Yeah.
That was my product?
Oh, my God.
I'm impressed that you know that.
Well, I was trying to research the...
Am I late for the Kourtney Kardashian interview?
Are you anything to do...
What is going on?
This is Andrea Lopez.
Who said...
She's the world's...
What is happening here?
Kourtney Kardashian impersonator. Oh, my goodness. world's premier Kourtney Kardashian impersonator.
Oh, my goodness.
He's just not Kourtney Kardashian.
No.
Oh, this is crazy.
Ben, Ben, literally, Ben, you're crazy, Ben.
What?
There's so many questions.
What is, what?
Ben, I just can't even, you got so flustered, but I loved, I loved your interview.
What did you say?
Well, I got flustered because I offended you.
I wasn't trying to offend you.
But now I, oh, who's?
Courtney Kardashian's way too good for this show.
But the best thing we could get is a Courtney Kardashian impersonator.
Andrea, that was fantastic.
Oh, I'm kind of relieved.
Oh, my God.
But also I'm very embarrassed at the same time.
Jeez, you were good.
Is this Andrea here? This is Andrea there. She's on the phone. Jeez, you were good. Is this Andrew here?
This is Andrew there.
She's on the phone.
Oh, hey, Andrew.
How are you doing?
Hi, Ben.
How are you?
I'm going a little better now knowing that it was you
and I haven't offended one of the most famous people on the planet
but also kind of gutted that we didn't have Kourtney Kardashian on the show.
I prepared for a long time for this.
Look at all his questions here.
You guys, you really,
oh my God, and what's the highlighted part?
What's the highlighted part?
There's no highlights, that's for sure.
None for me.
That was just stuff to remind
me if I got flustered, and I definitely got flustered.
I loved it when you were talking about the skin clear
grunge.
Yeah, hey. You guys, I knew I got you were talking about the skin clear. Yeah. Yeah. Hey,
I knew I got you when,
when we got the,
the skin,
the skin,
the skincare line jumbled up.
I didn't even know what I was saying for a while.
No,
no.
I was just at once.
You threw me when you started crying about,
I was like,
Oh God,
Oh God,
Oh God.
And after that,
I was like,
just end it.
I probably could have gone a little bit bigger with the cries did the cries come across as real tears no they definitely did yeah
they definitely did she's quite sweaty oh very sweaty red and very much like want to hang up
on you right now but i just it's not nice to meet you andrea let's be honest i know i know
they got you good.
I was worried about you.
I said, now, how long did he really prepare for this?
Because I don't want any hard feelings, and I respect the prep that you did.
Oh, well, thank you, and I respect the fact that you pranked me really well.
That's good.
I'll be getting your back.
Let's just all say we're all respecting each other.
We're all respecting each other. Yeah respecter We're all respecting each other
How disappointing for the show that we didn't get Courtney Kardashian
Not a respecter
What the
She's really good
She is amazing
You're amazing
Honestly thought I was
Tanking an interview with Kourtney Kardashian.
Oh my god.
But listen, if that really was a real interview, you would have gone viral and it would have
been the biggest exclusive ever.
Oh yeah, but now, so you're saying it's not now, obviously.
It's been a giant waste of your time.
Yeah, it's been your time.
We're paying Andrea.
We're paying Andrea.
You're the only loser out of this whole thing.
Thanks, Andrea.
You're a legend.
Ben, you can take a breather.
I think I called you Brian.
I hope you weren't offended.
Yeah, I heard you say that.
I was going to pull you up on that.
I was like, no, don't.
Just let it go.
If Korda Kardashian wants to call me Brian, that's fine.
I was like,
but that doesn't matter.
Brian's fine.
I tried not to laugh.
Oh my God, that was hard not to laugh
because I know you wanted
to correct me.
I was like,
but that doesn't matter.
