    Delta's Dress Designer's Thoughts on Her Eurovision Performance!

    Delta Goodrem made it through to the Eurovision final in Vienna and the woman who made it happen is Sydney designer Nicky Velani from Five Dock, who spent 500 hours hand-crafting Delta's gown featuring 7,000 Swarovski crystals. We caught up with Nicky watching from home and she had literally just stopped crying. An absolute pinch me moment for a very deserving talent. We love you, Nikki.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    How to Find the First Song You Listened To on Spotify!

    Spotify celebrated its 20th anniversary and you can now deep dive your entire listening history. We go around the room: Ricki joined in March 2012 after Spotify came to her record label and basically begged artists to get on board, Tim joined in 2014 when his daughter was under one, and Sarah joined in 2020 which we did not see coming.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: Ricki Got Papped With a Snickers!

    Thursday's show delivered. Callan Boys stopped by with his weekly Sydney eats picks. A mum accidentally gifted a seven year old a pair of women's cheeky undies for his birthday after forgetting to take them out of the present bag, which opened the phones for everyone's most mortifying moments. Exercise snacking is the new fitness trend where you do short bursts of movement throughout the day instead of one long workout, and we discussed whether that counts. A woman caught her cheating husband via their smart bathroom scale which recorded a mystery 120 pound weigh-in at 12.25am while she was away, and Sydney called in with their own caught out stories. And Tom Gleeson came in to play Quick Draw and was exactly as ruthless as you would expect.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    How A Smart Scale Exposed a Cheating Husband at 12.25am!

    A woman discovered her husband was cheating by checking the memory on their digital bathroom scale, which recorded two unassigned weigh-ins at 120 pounds at 12.25am and 12.26am while she was away. We open the phones for how people caught others out: Ricki got busted secret eating a sausage roll in the rain by Rich who had gone to buy her a sausage roll as a reward for running in the rain, Sarah's son was faking toilet training by dribbling water from a cup into the toilet to get the lollipop, a listener's housemate had been stealing her entire wardrobe, and someone dumped illegal rubbish next to a bin with their name, address and phone number still on the stickers. Criminal masterminds, every one of themSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    "I Accidentally Gifted Someone My Dirty Undies!"

    A mum accidentally gave a seven year old boy a monster truck and a pair of women's cheeky undies for his birthday after forgetting to take them out of the present bag before wrapping. We open the phones for Sydney's most mortifying moments: a retail worker asked a very fit woman when her baby was due and she was not pregnant, and a dad pulled over on the way home from a nightclub to offer a lift to the boy his daughter had been crushing on for weeks, then got in the van and told him everything. The boy was right there. There was nowhere to go. There was nothing to do but sit there and cop it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: Sooo Budgetty Right Now!

    Wednesday's show had a lot going on. We asked Sydney what their favourite Aussie saying is now that nobody says G'day anymore. We played Whisper Challenge with Jermaine. Bruce Isaacs stopped by with his Watcha Watching picks. A man is suing a hotel because sun loungers weren't available which is a level of audacity we respect. Joe Hildebrand decoded the federal budget in plain English and the short version is everyone gets $250 but not yet and it's already been spent on bracket creep. Raye's new album hit over one billion streams in today's Glossys. A listener from Blacktown shared her workplace ghost story which opened the floodgates and Sydney had a lot of haunted experiences to share. And Ricki discovered sandal socks are a major fashion trend in Japan and we have thoughts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Joe Hildebrand Decoded the Budget and It's Not as Good as It Sounds

    Joe Hildebrand stops by in a denim jacket to break down last night's federal budget in plain English. Everyone gets $250, except you won't get it until next year, and you've probably already lost twice that in bracket creep. The $1,000 instant tax deduction sounds great until you realise it's a deduction not a payment, so you actually get about $244. The negative gearing and capital gains tax changes are meant to help first home buyers but the government's own numbers say it will result in 35,000 fewer houses being built. What good luck. What bad luck. Also the entire budget was leaked before it was delivered, which raises questions about why journalists get locked in a room for six hours with no phones to process it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    'I Walked In On A Bank Robbery!'

    A man going for his morning swim at Tamarama Beach had absolutely no idea he had walked straight into a Fashion Week runway show and ended up in everyone's footage doing his stretches while models walked past him. We open the phones for Sydney's best walked-in-on moments: an 11 year old walked in on her mum, someone walked in on their grandparents, and a listener in the States nearly walked into an active bank robbery with police guns drawn before realising what was happening and quietly backing away to watch from a safe distance.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: 'I'm The Backbone Of This Show!'

    Tuesday's show was unhinged from the start. Rats the size of small dogs have taken over the Westfield Bondi Junction food court and there are apparently between 500 million and one billion of them in Greater Sydney at any time. Nikki Osborne stopped by in a full greyhound dress to chat about her new roast show Bush Deep launching today on YouTube and the Nova Player. Jermaine casually revealed he has an extra bone in his body and we had follow up questions. Americans cannot say the word crayon and we went down that rabbit hole. Benedict Cumberbatch got into a fight with a cyclist which is very on brand. Today's Glossys covered the roast of Kevin Hart. Aussies called in to expose their most bludgy jobs and it got competitive. And Anthony from The Wiggles came in with his daughter Lucia to play Sing, which was an absolutely lovely moment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    How Many Rats Are in Sydney Right Now? The Answer Will Ruin Your Day

    Rats the size of small dogs have been filmed running through the Westfield Bondi Junction food court after construction above it shook them out of the walls. This opens up the rat stat nobody asked for: there are between 500 million and one billion rats in Greater Sydney at any given time. Nobody knows who counted them. They are chewing through car wires in underground car parks, they survived the plague, and they will absolutely outlast all of us. Sydney may need a rat czar.

    Nikki Osborne Is Roasting Everyone and the PM Is Following Her

    Nikki Osborne stops by in a full greyhound dress to chat about her brand new show Bush Deep, launching today on YouTube and the Nova Player. It's a roast disguised as a chat show filmed in parks, on beaches and apparently on Larry Emdur's boat, which he described as a hut and turned out to be a three storey bunker palace. First guest is Larry Emdur and Nikki came out swinging. She also reveals that since launching the show, Prime Minister Albanese started following her on Instagram with a follow back notification, and she is absolutely going to slide into his DMs and invite him on.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    'ChatGPT Broke Us Up!'

    A woman found her boyfriend's ChatGPT history full of questions like "should I be in love after three and a half months" and "what about her three cats" and ended the relationship immediately. ChatGPT had already told him to break up with her anyway. We share our own recent ChatGPT searches: Ricki asked if she should still be friends with someone who vomits in a DJ's glass, Tim looked up the name of the smell of wet cement which is petrichor, and Sarah asked if her runners were men's shoes (they are, a US 10) and whether there is a dog breed that doesn't live beyond eight years. Listeners call in with theirs and nobody is normal and we love it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: Undies and Vom!

    Monday's show had it all. Tim vomited somewhere on the weekend and listeners called in to guess the location, which is not how most shows start the week but here we are. Australia voted on its top 10 Cadbury bars and there were strong opinions. A woman found her boyfriend's ChatGPT history asking if he should still be in love after three and a half months and ended it on the spot. The night versus morning shower debate was settled by hygiene experts and night showering won, Tim is unconvinced and has agreed to try it this week. A listener's friend secretly recorded some girls confessing to stealing money which opened up the eavesdropping debate. And apparently you should be replacing your underwear every six months which is news to everyone in this studio.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    You're Disgusting If You Shower At This Time!

    The morning vs night shower debate from last week has been settled by external experts and the verdict is in: night showers win. You spend the whole day collecting commute grime, office air and general life on your body, then wash it all off before getting into your clean bed. A morning shower just means you marinated in all of that overnight. Tim remains unconvinced and is committed to his morning shower for the wake-up factor alone. He has agreed to try a night shower this week.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: Mummmmmmmm...

    Sarah shared a beautiful message about her kids for Mother's Day. New Music Friday delivered as always. Katseye stopped by fresh from Taronga Zoo and 12 hours of sleep to chat Coachella, their upcoming EP Wild, and the fact that they are genuinely terrible at short answers. Angus and Julia Stone came in to perform their brand new song live, accidentally named our brand new segment Karaoke Bar Fridays in the process, and confirmed an Australian tour for 2027. Caller of the Week wrapped things up. Happy Mother's Day to all the mums listening.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Angus & Julia Stone Accidentally Named Our Brand New Segment

    Angus and Julia Stone come in to perform their brand new song live, making them the very first guests on Karaoke Bar Fridays, a segment that didn't have a name until they walked in and accidentally suggested it. The song was written in a stunning Paris studio about a year and a half ago and they hadn't actually rehearsed it together before coming in because Angus had been in Japan. We also find out Julia does Jagged Little Pill at karaoke for the catharsis, Angus does Wicked Games because of course he does, and an Australian tour is being planned for 2027. We are not angry about it. Okay we are a little.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Chat: Katseye Slept for 12 Hours in Sydney!

    Katseye stop by fresh from a day off at Taronga Zoo, 12 hours of sleep and the kind of reset that touring life never usually allows. They talk Coachella, where they rehearsed 12 hours a day until every moment was second nature, cried watching Carol G, and finally got to have that holy shit I'm really here moment on the actual stage. They also reveal they are terrible at short answers, which tracks given the entire interview. A new EP is coming in August and an Australian tour is being manifested in real time. Also Tim cannot dance and Katseye prescribed yoga and not looking in a mirror. We are taking notes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Rove: When Beyonce Rejected Him

    Rove McManus stops by ahead of his show Tomorrow Night at the Grand Electric, a celebration of 25 years on Australian television featuring clips, stories and audience questions. He reveals he used to handwrite thank you cards to every single guest who appeared on Rove Live, and Ricki found hers in a box of memories while moving house. Beyoncé did not get one. He also tells the story of going backstage after her concert expecting VIP access and being turned away at the door, which is deeply relatable. Taskmaster is also on Channel 10 tonight featuring Rove and Joel Creasey, who Rove describes as watching a newborn duckling waddle around every single day.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Chat: Billie Eilish on Growing Up, Vocal Training & Her Favourite Song

    Billie Eilish joins us for a chat when she was here for her Hit Me Hard And Soft Tour in Australia. She opens up about being sure of herself from a young age (even if teenage Billie didn’t have it all figured out), her hyperfixation on music and visuals, and the weirdness of playing Sydney clubs at 15 — too young to be in the audience, but old enough to be on stage. Plus, Billie gets a sweet gift from Tim’s daughter!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: Men Who Gift Flowers Don't Go Bald

    The 2026 Met Gala delivered chaos: Kendall, Kylie, Hailey Bieber and Kim K were all apparently doing a nip slip and we watched the whole thing unfold on the big screen. Bruce Isaacs stopped by with his Watcha Watching picks and Apex is at the top of the list right now. Listeners called in with their best life hacks including dressing the kids in tomorrow's clothes before bed, buying everything on The Iconic on Afterpay and returning what you don't like, and pouring sand on the yellow line at the beach. Today's Glossys revealed Stevie Nicks did a duet with Sabrina Carpenter which is the crossover nobody saw coming. We debated whether kids actually have to share their things with strangers at the park, a mum influencer said absolutely not, and an eight year old named Jasmine called in to say she shares everything except her sandwich. And scientists have found that men who gift flowers don't go bald, which is either very convenient or a conspiracy by the floral industry.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Influencer Reckons Kids SHOULD NOT Share

    A mum influencer in the States has gone viral for saying she will never force her kids to share their toys or snacks with strangers at the park and honestly the argument has some merit. We get into it: brand new scooter at the park, back off. Special prized possession, also back off. But shared spaces, turn taking and swings, different story entirely. Sarah Harris points out that sharing teaches kids how to exist in a society and delayed gratification builds the kind of grit that clocking Sonic the Hedgehog on three lives also builds. An eight year old named Jasmine calls in to say she shares everything except her sandwich. Respectable line to draw.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Why Sardines Are The New Skincare Trend

    Listeners call in with their best life hacks: dress the kids in tomorrow's clothes before bed, buy everything from The Iconic on Afterpay, try it all on at home and return what you don't like without spending a cent, pour sand on the yellow line at the beach so the parking inspector can't see it, and take exhausted kids to the movies so you can sleep while they watch. Also: sardines are apparently the new skincare trend replacing salmon sperm facials, which is an upgrade. And Ricki says vampire in a way that is completely normal and we will not be relitigating this.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: Ricki Wrote 'Ghost' About an Ex-Mate!

    We found out Prime Minister Albanese watches Married at First Sight and we have so many questions. The friendship breakup conversation hit close to home with Ricki revealing she wrote Ghost about a friend who vanished without explanation and listeners calling in with their own brutal stories. A man asked a woman to transfer her half of a $38 breakfast bill after she politely said no to a second date, which opened up the whole who pays on a first date debate. Today's Glossys covered the 2026 Met Gala looks and there was a lot to discuss. And Sam Fischer came in to play Sing and told the story of finding out Kelly Clarkson covered his song on her talk show, which is the kind of moment that changes everything.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  24. 977

    He Asked for $38 Back After She Rejected a Second Date

    Sydney dating is rough and this story proves it. A man took a woman out for breakfast, she politely declined a second date, and he immediately asked her to transfer her half of the $38 bill. We get into the real question: who pays on a first date and what does it mean? Jermaine's theory is that whoever covers the bill is signalling there will be a next time. Listeners call in with their dating rules and one woman in Camden is absolutely eliminating men based on sunglass choice alone. Thin gold frames after dark? You are done before you started.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Shows: Eating Brains and Balls!

    A woman at an airport chugged an entire bottle of tequila after security wouldn't let her take it on the flight, which opened up Ricki's own chug stories. Ricki had words for a certain someone about car park 76 and she came with a tape measure and photographic evidence. Kate Ceberano stopped by ahead of her ARIA Hall of Fame induction and was pure sunshine at an ungodly hour. Ricki-Leaks dropped a very spicy one: there is a global sports star in Sydney who is allegedly cheating on his wife with men, and we cannot say more than that. And people are getting caught shoplifting on CCTV in increasingly chaotic ways.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Ricki Has Beef With Our Newest Producer!

    Ricki has been stewing for weeks. New team member Lauren is parking 60 centimetres from the pillar on her side and 11 centimetres from Ricki's car. There are photos. There is a tape measure. There is now a resolution.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Kate Ceberano Is Going Into the ARIA Hall of Fame and It's About Time!

    Kate Ceberano comes in at the crack of dawn, sunglasses on, makeup off, full rock star energy, to chat about being inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame this year at a standalone event alongside more female inductees than ever before. She has been signed and dropped by every major label in the world and every single one of them has people who were quietly in her corner the whole time. She wants to use the platform to thank all the people behind the scenes who never get a mention. Forty years in and she is still the most joyous performer going.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: This One's For All the Eldest Daughters!

    Friday's show wrapped the week in style. Gen Z has declared Speedos unacceptable and Tim, a man who does laps in them, pushed back hard. Australia voted AFL the most overrated sport and Tim watched Hawthorn draw with Collingwood in the most nail-biting finish of the season the night before, so the timing was rough. New Music Friday delivered as always. Ricki spoke on behalf of all eldest daughters everywhere and a nine year old called in to represent the eldest daughter burnout club, which was both adorable and deeply relatable. Tim had a Tim Factwell for us that nobody asked for and everyone needed. And we wrapped the week with Caller of the Week and the Week in Review.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Australia Thinks AFL is Overrated!?

    Aperol Spritz copped it earlier this week and the audience agreed overwhelmingly. Now we go wider: Australia has voted AFL the most overrated sport, which Tim, a Hawthorn supporter who watched them draw with Collingwood in the most nail-biting finish last night, is taking as a personal attack. Most overrated TV shows: Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother, unpopular opinion delivered with full confidence. Most overrated Sydney thing: the beaches, according to a Gold Coast native who we will not be taking seriously. And a listener nominated croissants as the Aperol Spritz of food, which is brave and wrong but we respect the commitment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Gen Z Wants to Cancel Speedos and We're Not Having It

    Gen Z has declared Speedos unacceptable according to a great Aussie debate survey and Tim, a man who does laps in Speedos, is taking it personally. The verdict: Speedos are absolutely fine for lap swimming, board shorts at the beach with the kids, and if you have the confidence to rock them with a big gut at the pool then honestly we respect it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: Is Hughesy Jealous of Blackers?

    Thursday's show covered the viral video of a dad walking down the aisle alone at his daughter's wedding without her, which opened the phones for unexpected wedding moments. Callan Boys stopped by with his top Sydney local eats picks, and we got into the new trend of friend funds among mates. And Hughesy came in to chat about his Cooked show at Sydney Comedy Fest before playing Quick Draw, which went exactly as you would expect from Hughesy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    "He Forgot the Ashes": The Most Chaotic Dad Story We've Ever Heard

    A viral video of a dad walking down the aisle alone at his daughter's wedding without her opened the floodgates. Ricki's own dad sat down in the front row at her Paris wedding and forgot he was supposed to walk her down the aisle. Listeners called in and it only got worse: a dad drove to his daughter's graduation without her, a grandad came home from the park with one of two grandkids and didn't notice, a dad of 22 years still can't spell his daughter's name, and one dad arrived at his wife's funeral without the ashes. Never put a dad in charge of anything. This is the conclusion.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The One Dinner Move That Reveals Everything About Someone's Character

    Friend funds are a thing now, where friendship groups pool money to cover socialising costs. But does that not just sound like splitting the bill with extra steps? We get into the real drama: people who itemise exactly what they had, latecomers who dodge the entree split, and the classic T-Rex hands move where someone's arms mysteriously get too short to reach the bill whenever it arrives. Also a genuine disagreement: if you invite people to your birthday dinner, should you pay or should they?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: Imagine If We Dated...

    Meeting people in real life is apparently harder than ever and a Body and Soul guide to dating in 2025 made everyone deeply uncomfortable. Bruce Isaacs delivered his verdict on the Michael Jackson biopic and called it wonderful, critics be damned. Young couples are ditching engagement rings for tattoos instead and we had thoughts. Wil Anderson came in ahead of Gruen returning to ABC tonight and was exactly as sharp as you would expect. Madonna is playing gay clubs ahead of her new album which is the most Madonna thing possible. And Patrick Brammall stopped by fresh from the Devil Wears Prada 2 premiere to tell us he turned down the audition, did nothing, and got offered the role anyway. The fake Rolex story alone was worth the visit.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Why Patrick Brammall Said No to 'Devil Wears Prada 2' At First

    Patrick Brammall stops by fresh from the premiere and immediately tells us he turned down the audition for Devil Wears Prada 2 because he was busy and didn't think he had a chance. A week later they offered him the role without him lifting a finger. Pure Bradbury. He also spent the entire shoot wearing a Rolex that turned out to be fake, the props department had been putting it in a safe every day without knowing, and he nearly bought it for $500. He calls Anne Hathaway Annie, had to remind Stanley Tucci who he was on day one, and Colin from Accounts season three is wrapped and coming later this year.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Bruce Isaacs Called the Michael Jackson Movie Wonderful and We Believe Him

    Film critic Bruce Isaacs stops by and delivers a verdict on the Michael Jackson biopic that cuts right through all the noise: he thinks it is one of the most wonderful films he has seen in years. Critics on Rotten Tomatoes gave it 32%. Audiences who are fans gave it 97%. Bruce says both are right depending on your relationship to the legacy. If you go in wanting the film to litigate Michael's guilt or innocence you will struggle, but if you go in for the music and the story you will be emotional and overwhelmed.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Dating in 2025 Sounds Absolutely Horrifying

    A Body and Soul guide to meeting people in real life has us deeply uncomfortable. The tips include spending time alone at bars and cafes, maintaining steady eye contact with strangers you find attractive, and starting conversations in the bathroom line. Ricki would call the police if someone stared at her like that. Tim talks to people in lifts and urinals and thinks the bathroom line chat is actually fine. We are two very different people. Both deeply grateful we do not have to date.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: K-U-R-N-E-L?

    Tuesday's show had everything. A Sydney beach had to close because of a whale carcass washing up, which is not ideal. Tim drove to Hoyts purely to buy popcorn and a Coke and did not see a film, and we respect the commitment. We spun the wheel and played Spelling Bee, and one listener's attempt at spelling colonel will live in our memories forever. We talked about the booing at ANZAC Day ceremonies over the weekend which was genuinely upsetting. Stanley Tucci said active wear should only be worn while working out and Sydney took it as a personal attack. Kids in Sydney have been caught bus surfing which opened up the phones for everyone's own childhood crimes. Ricki saw the Michael Jackson movie and had thoughts in today's Glossys. We broke down everyone who acted strange during the White House Correspondents dinner shooting. And Pete Helliar came in to play Sing, which was exactly as chaotic as you would expect.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Aperol Spritz Is Disgusting

    Stanley Tucci is out promoting Devil Wears Prada 2 and had the audacity to tell GQ that active wear should only be worn while working out. Sydney, a city that has adopted the active wear and track pant as its official uniform, is not having it. Ricki points out that if it doesn't have an elastic waistband she is simply not interested. We open the phones for controversial opinions and they deliver: no ankle socks on men ever, Aperol Spritz is disgusting and belongs nowhere, stop making food at work, lanyards stay on office grounds only, and weddings are overrated.

    Booing a Veteran at a Dawn Service Is Indefensible

    During ANZAC Day Welcome to Country ceremonies across Sydney, Canberra, Perth and Melbourne, a small group of people booed Indigenous Elders as they spoke. At Martin Place it was especially confronting: Uncle Ray, the Elder who delivered the Welcome to Country, is himself a veteran whose grandfather served in the Light Horse Brigade and whose brothers served in Vietnam. A man who served this country, booed at a dawn service. There were 11,000 people at Martin Place this year, more than double the year before, so the respect was overwhelming. But the boos cut through the silence in the worst possible way. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: Jim Jefferies Sang Opera?!

    We spun the wheel and played Word Alarm. The great soap bar debate: are they back or are they done forever? New Music Friday delivered as always. The President of the Australian Medical Association came in to explain peptides and why the ones being sold online with "not for human use" on the label are a problem, including that Tim's old GP turned out to be our expert which raised eyebrows. Insurance scammers called in and things got out of hand fast: fake bear attacks on luxury cars in California, a decade of stolen coffee stamps, and an unqualified vet nurse who has been running surgeries for seven years and nobody has noticed. And Jim Jefferies came in, was absolutely unhinged as expected, and somehow it came out that he has done opera. We need answers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    An Unqualified Vet Nurse Told Us They've Been Doing Surgeries for 7 Years!

    Three people in California got caught staging fake bear attacks on their own luxury cars to claim $142,000 in insurance money. They kept the bear suits. In the house. Detectives found them immediately. We open the phones for Sydney's own scammers and it escalated quickly: one listener negotiated a better insurance deal and kept the $350 signup bonus anyway, another has been working as an unqualified vet nurse for seven years doing surgeries with drugs of addiction and nobody knows, and a third has been stealing the coffee loyalty stamp from local cafes for a decade and stamping up the whole family. We have so many questions about the vet nurse.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Everyone's Injecting Peptides and a Doctor Had to Explain Why That's Risky

    Peptides are everywhere right now: weight loss, skin care, muscle recovery, tanning. We got the President of the Australian Medical Association Dr Danielle McMullen on the phone to explain what they actually are and why the ones being sold online are a problem. Short version: the approved ones prescribed by doctors are fine, but the unregulated ones sold online may have never been tested on humans, can cause cancer, blindness or kidney damage, and often say not for human use right next to the injection instructions. Also it turned out she used to be Tim's GP which raised more questions than it answered.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Is Sabrina Carpenter Coming to Sydney This November?

    Tim has heard through very reliable channels that Sabrina Carpenter has four nights booked at Qudos Bank Arena in November.

    Full Show: Poh Oh!

    We spun the wheel and played the Whisper Challenge. NSW Premier Chris Minns dialled in and Ricki got into the contraceptive pill news. Matt Moran stopped by to tell us what to eat this week. Jake Gyllenhaal was spotted ordering Messina like a normal person and we respect it. Tim dropped the exclusive that Sabrina Carpenter has four nights booked at Qudos Bank Arena in November. A listener called in ahead of her reconstruction surgery tomorrow to reveal she asked her surgeon for Ricki's boobs, which Ricki is deeply honoured by. And Poh from MasterChef came in to play Quick Draw, talk the Meghan Markle MasterChef episode, and Tim finally told her the joke he has been holding onto for years: if Poh ever got together with Sandra Oh, her name would be Poh Oh.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Two years after a double mastectomy, listener Megzi called Ricki at a Ronald McDonald House charity gala, had a couple of champagnes, and decided she wanted Ricki's boobs for her reconstruction surgery. She took that conversation to her actual surgeon, who laughed, and tomorrow she is going in for a seven hour surgery. Ricki is honoured, Megzi is ready to close the final chapter of what she calls the shit show, and we are all cheering her on. Also: apparently drag queens have been going to their injectors asking for Ricki's cheeks for years. She is truly giving.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: How Are Babies Born, Ricki?!

    Science revealed the most dangerous songs to drive to and Eminem's Lose Yourself took the top spot, which tracks. We spun the wheel and played Can I Have The First Line. Bruce Isaacs stopped by with his Watcha Watching recommendations. A bride banning guests from wearing blue including a sapphire ring sent Ricki down memory lane about her own Paris chateau wedding where every guest was told to wear beige, Rich's dad wore navy anyway, and nobody was allowed to post they were even in Europe. Today's Glossys tackled whether Zoe Kravitz is engaged. Cash is apparently making a comeback and we discussed why. And Daniel MacPherson came in to chat about his new movie Beast, which looks absolutely unhinged in the best way.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Ricki Made Every Guest Wear Beige to Her Paris Wedding

    A bride demanding guests don't wear blue to her wedding, including banning a sapphire ring, gets Ricki reflecting on her own very specific wedding dress code. She and Rich got married at a chateau in Paris with 25 guests, told nobody anything until the last minute, and enforced a strict colour palette: girls in white, cream, beige or bone, guys in tan and beige or a black suit. Ricki's dad wasn't allowed to wear his kilt. Rich's dad ignored the whole thing and showed up in navy anyway, which is very on brand. Nobody was allowed to post that they were even in Europe. An absolutely iconic wedding and we are not surprised by a single detail.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Science Says Eminem Is the Most Dangerous Song to Drive To

    A study has revealed the top five most dangerous songs to drive to based on tempo, beats per minute, danceability and loudness. Shawn Mendes comes in at number five, Imagine Dragons at number two, and Eminem's Lose Yourself takes the top spot. Also: a school bus driver called in to tell us he has never been thanked so much in his life because every kid has to say thank you when they get off, which is the most wholesome thing we have heard all week. The worst part of the job is the pay. We relate.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full Show: 2200, bruthaaaaaa!!!

    A brawl broke out at a Bankstown salon apparently sparked by an influencer who is very passionate about her postcode. Nine billion voice notes are sent daily and Tim refuses to be part of the problem. Ricki set the record straight on the tabloid divorce story: she and Rich were walking to lunch for champagne and caviar, she was explaining her back pain with hand gestures, and a paparazzo 50 metres away in traffic turned it into a front page split. Her mum called. Her mother-in-law was devastated. They are fine. A woman fired from her job destroyed $4.1 million worth of wine on her way out, which opened up the best job revenge stories from listeners. Italy has made sick pets a valid reason for taking sick leave, which Australia needs to get on immediately. And Dr Chris Brown came in to play Sing!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
