In this episode of TV Central: One on One, Aaron Ryan welcomes Shaynna Blaze back to the podcast to discuss 1 Euro House with Shaynna and Darren and the extraordinary reality of restoring a centuries-old home in Sicily.

Shaynna reveals why she bought the one-euro property sight unseen, the fear of discovering major structural problems and how losing an entire floor forced a complete rethink of the house. She also explains the accidental rustic finish of the exposed bedroom beams, how she and Darren Palmer balanced very different design instincts, and just how small the renovation team really was.

The conversation also covers:

• What potential buyers need to understand beyond the one-euro headline

• The finished kitchen and the challenge of turning several planned spaces into one communal room

• Life in Castronovo and the importance of becoming part of the local community

• Why Shaynna wants future television projects to tell meaningful human stories

• The heritage-listed Sunbury site awaiting The Block in 2027

• Her Kyneton home, growing family and hopes for a joyful 2027

1 Euro House with Shaynna and Darren continues Tuesdays at 8.40pm on Channel 9 and 9Now. The first three episodes are available to stream on 9Now.

Aaron Ryan speaks with Yung Milla, the proud Marranunggu artist from Darwin, about the people, culture and experiences behind his victory. He reveals that his first thoughts after hearing his name called were of family members who had passed away and the community he wanted to make proud.

• How Levi Nichaloff became Yung Milla, with the name honouring his mother and older brother J-MILLA
• Why he chose his brother’s song All My Life for his four-chair Blind Audition
• The pressure of proving rap belongs on The Voice stage
• How he rebuilt Men at Work’s Down Under while respecting the original
• Deciding which painful experiences are ready to become lyrics — and which remain private
• Protecting his integrity, culture and connection to home as the music industry comes calling
• What he hopes this historic win creates for people beyond his own career

Yung Milla also explains why speaking his story can help someone else and why, wherever his career takes him, his people come with him.

In this episode of TV Central: One on One, Aaron Ryan is joined by Mel Doyle to discuss the new season of Channel 7’s The House of Wellness.

Aaron Ryan speaks with Michael Dorman about his role as Detective Ivan Lucic in the new ABC drama Treasure & Dirt.

Set in the fictional outback town of Nulla, the six-part series begins with the brutal death of a miner at the bottom of an opal mine, but quickly becomes something stranger than a conventional police drama. Michael discusses the show’s distinctly Australian tone, the dry humour and danger of Nulla, and how he approached playing Ivan as a brilliant, unpredictable detective who is difficult to read.

The conversation also covers Ivan’s partnership with Nell, played by Liv Hewson, filming in and around Coober Pedy, the importance of landscape and underground spaces to the story, and what Michael hopes viewers will come to understand about Ivan by the end of the series.

Aaron also asks Michael about taking his dad to set, his love of the Canberra Raiders, the All Blacks, Supercars and classic Holdens.

Treasure & Dirt premieres Sunday 19 July at 8.30pm on ABC TV and ABC iview.
