Not sure if any of you have ever heard of the show The Weekly with Charlie Pickering. It’s an Australian based show that’s someone similar to Last Week Tonight With John Oliver. There’s also a Daily Show element to the show as well. Bottom line is that is has very similar features, interviews, segments, and so forth. One of the guests of the show was none other than actress Sophie Monk. Monk’s never really quite gotten into the mainstream as far as her acting career and the last really significant roles she had were in 2006 and 2007 (Date Movie).
