    Default I’ve got some stuff I’d like to try out

    I’ve got some stuff I’d like to try out

    Is it has the meaning as here? I read that "try-out has to do with entertainment or sport but I don't know if it fits here ...
    the actress had been given her role only as a try-out

    It's from a book that I'm reading but I really want to understand its proper meaning so thanks guys for helping me ...

    “What do you have in mind?” Gibbs asked his boss.
    “I’ve got some stuff I’d like to try out,” Obama said. “I want
    to see what the reaction is.” What Obama wanted to try out was an honest-togoodness
    stump speech full of sweeping national themes"

    Have a look here: Definition of try-out | Collins English Dictionary
    Bear in mind that in your text there is no hyphen between "try" and "out". "Try-out" is a noun. "Try out" is a verb.
