'Dad’ll always be my biggest inspiration': Robert Irwin opens up about Steve’s legacy with Nova's Jase & Lauren

Nova 100's Jase & Lauren chatted to Robert Irwin and Julia Morris ahead of the new season of I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, and the team spoke to Robert about his dad’s legacy.

Quotes from the show:

Jase: As you were talking, Robert, I'm like, my god, you remind me of your dad to a tee mate, and I got three boys under 10 and they have now just fallen in love with the old school Crocodile Hunter series.

Robert Irwin: Have they really?!

Jase: Oh mate, for every weekend, down the rabbit hole on YouTube. And just just listening to the way you talk then, it's honestly like, it's uncanny.

Robert: Oh mate. Well, thank you very much. You know, I feel like my life is really built around that legacy and finding my own way to really continue that so.

Jase: Which you have, you have you found your own way of doing it.

Robert: Thank you, that really means a lot, and I think Dad’ll always be my biggest inspiration in life. We actually just had our Steve Irwin Gala, which is to benefit our charity, Julia did the most amazing job hosting it. We had the best time ever, and that was just what night before last, so his legacy is still alive and well to this day, and, and we're all just here celebrating. So it means so much, that's really awesome.

Jase & Lauren can be heard from 6am to 9am on Nova 100 in Melbourne. Listeners can stream the show live or catch up with the daily podcast by downloading the Nova Player.
