He explained that the handlers kept butting in and telling him that he “couldn’t ask him that”, which made him “awkward” and “awful”.
‘We told them ‘But it’s in the press release! I have your press release! We’re reading the press release!””
Meanwhile, Molloy claimed that Dylan was upset by his first question during their meeting.
He explained that Dylan did not like the fact that he noted that he had been a comedian since 1992, and subsequently hinted at his age.
Dylan had told Molloy: ‘Can I just say you love dating here and talk about how long ago things started? It’s really depressing. Can you cut this right now?

He moved to Sydney from Melbourne for the role.
He said media week: ‘It’s fantastic. I love the radio.
“I’ve had a long history at Triple M, but I’ve never done a Sydney breakfast before – I spent about four months with Andrew Denton when he replaced Amanda Keller. It’s a great challenge and it’s one I wish I could tick off before I finally put up the stumps.’
