- AESHA SCOTT:
Aesha is one of the stars of the Bravo show “Below Deck.” Some of you will be massive fans of the woman crowned NZ TV personality of the year. But I guess some of you would have no idea who she is.
Either way, you are in for a treat! I’ve done over 100 podcast episodes so far and this might be the wildest episode yet. This true-blue kiwi chick is amazing- relentlessly positive and just naturally likeable and hilarious. But also, so authentic.
I think this may be Aesha Scott as you have never heard before- she was so open, raw and vulnerable about a lot of really tough life events.
We chat about her mum’s battle with alcohol and this impact that had for Aesha as a young girl.
Reflections on her parents’ divorce.
Losing her older brother to a brain tumor.
Her recent therapy journey.
Her ADHD diagnosis as a kid.
How she landed a role on one of the world’s biggest reality TV shows and so much more.
Thanks so much to my incredible sponsors: Radix and Generate. Please support the legends who support the podcast.

I was a huge fan of Radix even before they became sponsors. I start every day with a shake made with their protein powder. And in the past year, their freeze dried meals have become a staple in my diet. You truly have to try them for yourself to understand how epic they are in terms of taste, how filling they are, how good they are for you and how easy they are.

I read a story last week that a lot of us could be missing out on $312,000 just by ignoring your Kiwisaver.

Awesome episode, love Aesha's personality so much!
I don't!!
She’s just so real and so naturally good hearted. I’m so glad that she’s so successful in her career and personal relationships, she deserves happiness so much
I love Aesha so much, as a fellow kiwi I absolutely adore her and her personality. She is so sweet and bubbly, I have been rewatching below deck med and below deck down under just because of her, her energy is amazing. Such a beautiful soul 🔥🫶🩷
Such a well-done interview. Questions were very well done and expertly moved Aesha's real life story through time. Aesha was her authentic self, forthcoming personal backstory, and not over the top. Thoroughly enjoyed this interview.
OMG I love Aesha! She is such a delight, great interview Dom! Also, don't watch this before going to a work meeting, I was sobbing at the stories of her earlier life...
Have loved you since the start Aesha!!! Loved listening to this!
Absolutely LOVE this interview. She's a wee gem!
Scottish ? I’m Scottish it’s the “wee gem” comment xxx
@@haziessongscummings7962haha no. I'm a kiwi.. We say wee alot too
I love Aesha-somehow she manages to be both the most entertaining AND emotionally intelligent person ever. And great job with the interview…I never knew all of this backstory, but she totally opened up for a fellow Kiwi.
Aesha is hands down my most favorite person I've ever seen on Below Deck! I think we would get along sooooo well because we have similar senses of humor. She is the most down to earth and real authentic person ever!
Great podcast. Loved every minute. Great NZ lady Aesha, very interesting and so loving and family oriented.
The interviewer was very skilled in how to handle such a fan favorite personality and giving us more than just surface stuff. Aesha will honestly answer any question. One just needs to ask the right ones. The interviewer had obviously done extensive research and was well prepare.
Awesome interview Dom! You asked great, detailed questions that gave us more insight into Aesha which was enjoyable to watch and you two had an easy flow back and forth with each other.
This is the most indepth interview I have ever seen of Aesha hearing her childhood, her natural optimism (*which is impressive esp within her family dynamic while growing up.) Also hearing about her family, her ADHD and how she got on Below Deck was interesting. She is such a lovely person inside and out. I like that Aesha is very open, honest and relatable. Hope you have her back again.
Very cool Dom, She has amazing energy .
Cheers Carl. Shes hilarious eh ❤
Such precious memories and so much difficulty - Aesha is a wonderful human being...
I'm a 69 year old British woman who connects completely with Aisha and I also don't have a very good filter 😂. Long May she reign, along with Kate they are below deck royalty ❤
Love Aesha! Thank goodness, that we have her in this world! Don't change a thing, about yourself!
I have followed Aesha on Instagram ever since her first season on Below Deck in 2019. Even before she started dating Scott. It was sweet to see the way their friendship grew. My brother in law is a kiwi though they live in the States now but for a time they lived in Mt. Maunganui. I especially love how real and authentic Aesha is. Great podcast. I learned more about her childhood that I never knew.
she is awesome,great chat dom..loving the pod
Thanks heaps Troy
Aesha has been a refreshing personality on reality tv, and now I realize how much we have in common. I have mixed feelings about medication where on the one hand if it helps then do what you need to, but on the other, from experience, I had a rough time with it since I only received a late in life adhd diagnosis during the 2nd year of my PhD. I was that person struggling despite being smart, for years, and while I did get on a stimulant medication for a bit, I also learned how to adapt by understanding myself better.
I adore this wonderful woman, she’s the funniest,kindest most likeable person on any bravo show
An absolutely delightful human being
Love Love Love Aesha!!! From the start you could see how smart and charming, Although a little raunchy , she was! More ppl need to know how smart and cool she is
What a beautiful amazing story and phenomenal young woman
Shes such a strong girl! ❤️
I love her she’s 100% fresh and genuine
Love Aesha and great interview. Thank you

Fab interview
When I grow up, I want to be like Aesha , I'm 63......

@@yvette1379 😂😂😂
@StancyInTheCitycalm down Karen
@StancyInTheCity thank you
I’ve never heard a kiwi accent quite like hers before and I am a kiwi.
the police should have got involved in the attempted assault
I love aesha and below deck, but i can’t help but feel that if aesha weren’t conventionally pretty and charming people wouldn’t be so accepting to her openness and “realness”. There have been times where she’s been wildly inappropriate and gotten away with it because that’s just “how she is”. But if it were anyone else doing what she does it wouldn’t be so “cute” or “funny”.
If he didn’t watch the show why did he have her on?
I thought Padraig Harrington was Irish?
After watching season 4 of Below deck Med, I can't even describe how much Aesha reaction to Travis Hitting Anastasia disappointed me. I think her justification was despicable, she doesn't get to decide Travis is a good guy just because that was her experience, after he assaulted her friend. Her defending him and his behaviour created a situation where he was never held accountable, which harms both him and Anastasia. And she doubled down on her statements on WWHL and the after-show, so she truly believes this bull. Furthermore she villainized Joao for stepping in to defend Anastasia because she personally didn't like Joao, this is textbook narcissism.
Lovely lassie
So this needs to be said since no one wants to ever say anything bad about her, she's extremely unprofessional and crosses boundaries with guests and her own co workers, I can't believe no one is mentioning her grabbing the crotch of the female deck hand on season 9, the girl didn't react, probably because she was caught off guard and because it's Aesha, but the fact Aesha literally put her hand all the way on this deck hands crotch, and grabbed it, she should have been fired, you never touch anyone like that no matter if you're joking around or not, it's insane that it was never even addressed
It looks like this guys leg is a prop with a sore on it my lord
She didn't prevent it, the production crew did. I absolutely HATE her sing songy voice.
She's funny but she has NO CLASS at all.
If strength was a person it would be Aesha 🥹
