Mel & Matty

We know from last week's Christmas gift mishap, that Mel's coined herself as someone who may not be the best at giving gifts. BUT, after that mishap motivation, Mel put together a lot of thought over the past week to bring a gift to Matty that matches how thoughtful he is...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We've been teasing it for two weeks and the day is finally here, we're opening up the Santa Sack and giving out some goods! Plus, we hear from all of YOU on what tomorrow will look like for you (Yes, including a weather update from Matty), what you still need to get from the shops and how you'll be celebrating your Christmas this year. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Yesterday, Matty introduced us to UK Cafe owner, David Purchase yesterday who holds the Guinness World Record for 'Longest Marathon Singing Christmas Carols', that's singing loud for all to hear for a total of 42 hours! So whilst we're not live for 42 hrs, we thought we'd see if anyone out there would do it for an hour in exchange for some santa goodies. Loyal listener Jess took the day off work just for the occasion, but will she last the hour?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mel sent Matty a photo over the weekend of one Mr Ed Sheeran on the cover of Mens Health UK and she couldn't believe it. One, he's said that he's lost 14 kilos but two, he's got his rig out and we can now see just how many tats he's got and WOAH! Mel & Matty try to test their theory of whether or not some of you have tattoos, by asking a few simple questions...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's only 3 more sleeps until the big man comes to town, which means there's only 3 more shows of Mel & Matty for the year...And speaking of sleep, we're asking what's the proper bedroom etiquette when it comes to your outside clothes inside the bed? Mel & Matty have some very differing opinions to share...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we're talking about Christmas party shenanigans and the weird things that can happen when colleagues let loose. We've also got a special guest, Santa Claus, who's sharing some fun facts about the North Pole and what it's like to deliver presents to kids all around the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Somehow we managed to secure a call with December's busiest man, Santa Claus himself. We've got so many questions to ask the big man about presents, reindeer and, of course, how Mrs Claus is!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mel and Matty dive into a fun-filled morning with a mix of games, giveaways, and hilarious moments. We kick off the show with a burping competition, where we asked if listeners could burp on command. We also find out some interesting things people seem to really believe in, including a prayer to find lost items and a remedy for hiccups.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Matty's wife has recently discovered a new prayer that has helped them discover some long lost items. That got us thinking, what else do people believe actually works? We might even find some life changing advice along the way. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’re back with all the chaos from the studio! We spun the Wheel of Games and played 'Year Of the Song', where Mel hilariously misremembered the year of a Whitney Houston classic—oops! The Black Eyed Peas are back together, and we got the lowdown on the pettiest reason they ever split. Mel also shared her unforgettable Prime Minister moment that had us all in stitches. And Matty couldn’t help but celebrate Mel Tracina absolutely smashing it hosting Big Brother, even surprising her with a shoutout from Peter Andre—proud moments all around!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We spoke to the Prime Minister yesterday and Mel did the unthinkable… she called Albo “Mr Prime Minister".See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Matty took a moment on air to properly hype up Mel Tracina’s massive year as the host of Big Brother Australia, returning to its original Network 10 home with live noms, live evictions and all the chaos we love. Matty could not be prouder, giving Mel all the claps on air for how great she did taking the franchise back to its roots. And as a cherry on top, international legend Peter Andre even gave Mel a shoutout, adding that extra bit of star power to her big TV moment. A seriously big tick for Mel in 2025 and a proud Matty moment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mel and Matty spoke with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese about the horrific Bondi Beach attack. He described the tragedy as a “dark moment in Australia’s history” driven by anti-Semitism and hatred, and stressed that Australia will not submit to division or fear. The PM outlined steps the government is taking to combat hate, including programs in schools, cultural funding, and legislation against hate speech and Nazi symbols. He also discussed tightening gun laws, accelerating the National Firearms Register, and limiting firearms ownership where common sense dictates. Finally, he praised hero Ahmed al-Ahmed for bravely confronting the gunman, calling him “a hero who ran towards danger” and deserves national recognition.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With confronting news dominating the past few days, Mel & Matty spoke with parenting expert Dr Justin Coulson about how parents can navigate tough conversations with their kids. Dr Justin shared practical advice on answering children’s questions honestly without overwhelming them, and why listening matters just as much as explaining. He also explained how to tell when kids are asking out of curiosity versus fear, and how reassurance plays a crucial role in those moments.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rabbi Yossi Friedman joined Mel & Matty after attending the vigil at Bondi Beach, sharing how his community is processing an unimaginable loss. He spoke about the deep personal grief following the deaths of friends, while also reflecting on the powerful unity shown by people from all backgrounds coming together to mourn. Rabbi Yossi explained the meaning of the Hanukkah menorah and why light, hope, and togetherness matter even more in moments of darkness.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the wake of the Bondi terror attack, Mel & Matty spoke with criminal defence lawyer and law expert Jahan Kalantar about the renewed focus on Australia’s gun laws. Jahan unpacked why Australia’s firearm system has long been considered world-leading, and why it is now back under scrutiny. He explained the tension between public safety and legitimate firearm ownership, and why reform is never straightforward. A calm, measured conversation helping listeners understand the bigger picture at a time when many Australians are asking difficult questions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Weekend Sunrise co-host David Woywood joined Mel & Matty live from Bondi Beach as the community continues to process an unthinkable tragedy. He painted a powerful picture of a place usually full of life now sitting in silence, with locals quietly gathering, reflecting, and supporting one another. David shared what he’s been hearing from residents on the ground, the mood within the community, and why Bondi still feels far from back to normal. A calm, thoughtful update from the heart of a shaken suburb.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We had our phone lines open on 13 24 10 for people to share their feelings on the tragic Bondi Beach shooting yesterday. Rosie spoke about what her parents who experienced anti-Semitism in concentration camps would've thought on the incident. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bondi local Nick joined Mel & Matty to share what he witnessed firsthand as the events unfolded at Bondi Beach last night. He described hearing what sounded like fireworks before receiving a frantic call telling him to run, moments before realising there was an active shooting. Nick arrived at the scene within minutes and spoke about the chaos, fear, and confusion as crowds fled the beach on what had been a warm, busy summer evening. He also reflected on the shock of seeing first responders and police visibly emotional, and how a place synonymous with safety and joy felt unrecognisable. A raw and confronting account from a local still trying to process what happened in his own community.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Australia woke up in shock after the horrific attack at Bondi Beach, and Channel 7 Chief Reporter Chris Reason joined Mel & Matty from the scene to explain what we know so far. Chris confirmed the death toll has risen to 16, with more than 40 people injured, and described a normally vibrant Bondi as silent and devastated this morning. He shared firsthand accounts from the chaos last night, the scale of the emergency response, and the emotional toll of witnessing violence against everyday Australians. Chris also explained why police have declared this a terror incident, what that means for the investigation, and the urgent questions authorities are now racing to answer.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Matty is in his 'opinion era' and decided to throw a little quip at one of Albo's recent instagram posts. Little did he expect to be called this strange name...
