Ricki Made Every Guest Wear Beige to Her Paris Wedding
21/04/2026 Duración: 04minA 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
21/04/2026 Duración: 03minA 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!!!
21/04/2026 Duración: 01h11minA 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.

Ricki-Lee Addresses Divorce Rumours
20/04/2026 Duración: 07minWoman's Day and New Idea ran a story claiming Ricki and her husband Rich are getting divorced based on photos of them standing at traffic lights. What was actually happening: Ricki was explaining her back pain very animatedly while Rich held a convenience store umbrella over his head, and they were on their way to celebrate with champagne and caviar. Ricki's mum, sister and mother-in-law all reached out in a panic. Even someone at Channel 7 pulled her aside to check in. The photos were taken from 50 metres away by a paparazzo sitting in traffic. Nobody was arguing. Nobody is divorcing. The umbrella was embarrassing though and she stands by telling him to put it down.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Number of Voice Notes Sent Daily Will Actually Break Your Brain
20/04/2026 Duración: 02minNine billion voice notes are sent worldwide every day and two in three people are now using them. Tim is not one of them. Unless he wants to do an impression, in which case Ricki has several on her phone that must never see the light of day or she will be immediately unemployed. A listener perfectly summed up the rule: if we started this conversation over text, do not switch to a voice note halfway through. Nobody knows what to do with that.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Full Show: Good Luck, Joel!!!!!
20/04/2026 Duración: 01h15minWe defended DJ Got Us Falling In Love's honour after a band called it absolute garbage on Triple J. We spun the wheel and played Tim's Top 5. A reporter at the Sydney Fish Market got bitten by a crab on live TV and immediately had it cooked, which is the most justified act of revenge we have ever seen. Glenn Robbins came in ahead of tonight's Celebrity Intervention premiere on Channel 7 and revealed he once watched Tim get destroyed by waves at Bells Beach. Tim and Justin Bieber have one very specific thing in common: YouTube Premium. Justin Bieber showed up at Coachella in today's Glossys. Ricki nearly choked to death on a piece of steak which is especially concerning given Neil Perry just taught us how to cook one properly. And Joel Creasey came in to celebrate the launch of his brand new radio show, which we are fully behind.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Glenn Robbins Once Watched Tim Get Absolutely Destroyed at Bells Beach
19/04/2026 Duración: 06minGlenn Robbins stops by ahead of the premiere of Glenn and Mick Celebrity Intervention on Channel 7 tonight at 7.30. Turns out he and Tim go way back: Glenn taught Tim how to surf, took him to Bells Beach where Tim got absolutely pummelled by waves and spent the rest of the day watching from the sand, and the two of them once had a very big lunch with Melbourne radio legend Ross Stevenson that Tim did not recover from. The show brings celebrities in for a roast slash therapy session with a live studio audience, and Carrie Bickmore is first in the hot seat tonight. Glenn also announced that lunch is overrated and he stands by it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why You Shouldn't Call Usher "Garbage"
19/04/2026 Duración: 05minA Melbourne band called Radio Free Alice went on Triple J's Like A Version, called Usher's DJ Got Us Falling In Love an ugly duckling and a piece of absolute garbage, covered it, then deleted the video when the internet turned on them. They have since apologised. Ricki nearly threw her phone off the balcony. The song has sold hundreds of millions of records and does not need their help. Case closed.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Best Bits: Millennials Are 'Quiet Vacationing' Without Telling Their Boss
15/04/2026 Duración: 03minMillennials are "quiet vacationing" by using work-from-home flexibility to secretly take time off and work from anywhere—whether overseas or the beach—while scheduling emails to keep up the illusion they're still working normal hours.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Best Bits: Woman Gets Perfect Petty Revenge On Drive-Thru Line Cutter
14/04/2026 Duración: 06minA woman got the ultimate petty revenge after someone cut an entire drive-thru line and pulled in behind her—she paid for their meal, took the food, and left the line cutter with nothing. We also love boxing people in on the roads (safely) while pretending to sing along to the radio as they get infuriated.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Best Bits: Robbie Williams Absolutely ROASTS MAFS Australia!
13/04/2026 Duración: 09minWe catch up with Robbie Williams, who tells us he literally delayed his album to avoid going head-to-head with Taylor Swift… honestly, fair call. We relive his AFL Grand Final performance, where he says Aussies fully bought into his “imperial gladiator” vibe, which is exactly why he loves performing here. Off stage, he’s surprisingly chill, talking school pick-ups, family dinners, and bingeing The Real Housewives in bed. Then it gets loose as he thanks Australia for our completely cooked reality TV, calling Married At First Sight Australia the best in the world thanks to our “zero care” approach. He also gets a bit real with us, sharing the advice he wishes he knew earlier: confidence doesn’t always show up, but being brave will get you through.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Best Bits: Keli Holiday And His Loud Pants!
12/04/2026 Duración: 11minKeli Holiday joined us fresh off his album launch at Rambling Rascal wearing the loudest blue pants we've ever seen and a singlet he bought at the show (because that's the rule), revealing his upcoming Metro Theatre tour on March 6 will have theatre vibes with smoky piano silhouettes instead of just a sweaty rock show. He opened up about fans telling him stories of what the album means to them—including a woman whose husband cried for the first time in 10 years while listening to "Ecstasy"—then absolutely lost Quick Draw for the third time in a row!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Best Bits: Hilary Duff: Guinness, Logistics Nightmares & Aussie Tour
09/04/2026 Duración: 05minHilary Duff joined us ahead of her Australian tour (which sold out in minutes with 52,000 people in the Sydney waiting room alone) and revealed the hardest part isn't the setlist—it's figuring out tour dates around four kids' school schedules and refusing to miss important family moments. She opened up about feeling lucky with an amazing husband, beautiful life, and fans who've stuck with her since raising them as young girls, plus we asked if Guinness will be on her rider after that viral video where she thought it was Diet Coke with foam and hated it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Best Bits: Don't Let Your Kid Near Your Phone After This
07/04/2026 Duración: 03minWe're back Monday April 20. One click purchasing has claimed another victim — Tim's kid accidentally bought over 15 toys on Amazon without breaking a sweat. Turns out it's an epidemic: a kid somewhere ordered 31 cheeseburgers from Maccas, and one brave caller admitted her child accidentally purchased an adult toy online.

Best Bits: LA Marathon Commentary Sounds Like... Something Else
07/04/2026 Duración: 02minWe played a secret sound that had everyone convinced it was from "the hub" or Married At First Sight's intimacy week, but it was actually just the Los Angeles Marathon commentary of a woman losing her absolute mind screaming "WHOA! OH MY GOD!" over and over during a close finish—and we couldn't stop laughing because it sounded exactly like a When Harry Met Sally situation on free-to-air TV.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Best Bits: Melanie C & Ronan Keating: Slides vs Sliders & Ice Face Plunges
06/04/2026 Duración: 10minWe're back Monday April 20. Spice Girl Melanie C and Ronan Keating joined us on St. Patrick's Day and immediately got into a debate about whether they're called "slides" or "sliders" (UK says sliders, we called them idiots, Americans call them flip-flops, and Aussies call them thongs which confused everyone). Ronan revealed his breakfast radio survival trick was plunging his face in a bowl of ice water every morning at 5am because seven years of early mornings made him look 60, Melanie's touring Australia for the first time as a solo artist in November hitting the Enmore Theatre, and Ricki had a full fangirl meltdown admitting she learned every Spice Girls dance move from the Live in Istanbul concert.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Neil Perry Just Told Us We've Been Cooking Steak Wrong This Whole Time
02/04/2026 Duración: 06minNeil Perry stops by fresh off landing number two on the world's 101 best steak restaurants list to share his Sydney picks: Esther in Chippendale for the potato bread and Jersey cow tartare, VN Street Foods in Marrickville for the fermented rice noodle rolls, and Happy Chef in the Haymarket food court for wonton noodle soup deconstructed. He also dropped a bombshell: pepper on a steak before cooking is wrong. It burns and goes acrid. Pepper is a finishing spice only. We are devastated and will never recover.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fish Have Accents and Cows Have Best Friends and We're Losing It
02/04/2026 Duración: 06minScientists have discovered that damselfish on the Great Barrier Reef speak faster than the same species in WA, meaning fish have regional accents. That alone was enough. But we also learned that crows hold grudges against specific humans and warn other crows about them, cows have best friends they hang out with in the field, queen ants live up to 30 years while regular ants get two, and zebras fart every single time they run. It is propulsion. Nature is unhinged and we are obsessed.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
