Episode description

This is one for all Motorsport lovers. 

Top Gear Australia is BACK! Ahead of its May 17 return on Paramount Plus, we chat with acclaimed actor and Australian Survivor host Jonathan LaPaglia who’s been given the keys to the rebooted Aussie version along with footy larrikin Beau Ryan and Blair (Moog) Joscelyne from Mighty Car Mods, who you can find in the Rusty’s Garage library.

JPL joins Rusty to take us through what we can expect, including close calls, the countries, and his role in such a famous franchise. Plus, a dive into the LaPaglia family connection to cars and how JLP really fell in love with Muscle Cars when he moved to the USA. The first set of wheels he had as an emerging actor to his cool ‘daily drives’ now which are good enough to feature in car magazines!
