Ricki‑Lee & Tim

Two kayakers in Canberra got knocked into the water by a hot air balloon flying too low over Lake Burley Griffin, sparking a debate about whether hot air balloons are worth it. Tim's never been and thinks they're a hard no (you get lifted up real quick then sit there for three hours with five people touching shoulders doing nothing), while a hot air balloon pilot named Wayne called in to explain t...

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 b...

Melanie C and Ronan Keating rock up. We find out Sydney's favourite bedroom songs. We cover everything Oscars from yesterday. Taylor Swift is partying with Beyonce. A man turned himself blue. And, what's your excuse? Sean Penn didn't rock up to the Oscars. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The K-pop Demon Hunters won Best Original Song at the Oscars for "Gold" and when the play-off music started cutting off their speech, the singer got so angry he started jumping up and down like an angry toddler yelling "say something!" while his bandmate just stood there. Conan O'Brien also roasted Timothée Chalamet multiple times including bringing up security concerns from "the opera and...

A paparazzi photo of Taylor Swift getting out of a car at Beyoncé and Jay-Z's Chateau Marmont party went viral showing nothing but her feet, a black dress, and an umbrella—and Ricki immediately identified it was Taylor because "they always put umbrellas up around her when she gets off her private jet, and only Beyoncé does that too." We also discovered the Bridesmaids cast reun...

We asked Sydney for their "I swear it's true" stories after discovering there's been eight Bigfoot sightings in Ohio over four days (despite everyone having cameras in their pockets with zero actual photos). Natalie from Picton called in with an insane story: she kept getting confused with another woman at ultrasounds and hospital bookings, and it turned out there was another Natalie with the same...

Men are sharing their living spaces as bachelors and it's ridiculous. It's Oscar season and Tim knows the rules if you ever wanted to be a seat filler. Ricki dives into the recent sightings of Big Foot. And, someone has Meghan Markle's Sydney visit goss in Ricki-Leaks. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Reddit thread revealed the most depressing bachelor pads ever—guys showing off lounge rooms with fold-out camping chairs facing walls, a spin bike and a picture of a horse, and one bloke who doesn't even have a TV just sitting on his couch staring at nothing. We discovered you're apparently not supposed to put your couch against the wall (it has to be slightly forward to look nice, even if...

A veteran Oscars seat filler revealed the strict rules including paying your own way to LA, no phones allowed, you can only talk to celebrities if they speak to you first (so no chatting up Brad Pitt), no eating or drinking anything during the entire ceremony, and you have to get up immediately when someone important wants their seat back. Tim's convinced they must wear nappies because they can't...

If you missed any Ricki-Lee & Tim, don’t stress! Ou r Best of the Week podcast has you covered. We’ve wrapped up all our favourite moments so you can catch up on the highlights and stay in the loop! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We asked Sydney what they're weirdly good at—those insignificant skills you'd never put on LinkedIn but you're secretly exceptional at. Ricki's an airport mogging legend who zooms through security with nothing in her pockets and knows the restaurant menu before arriving (which Tim hates because half the fun is discussing it over a beer), while Tim's a boot-packing Tetris master who can see e...

People are PANIC BUYING AGAIN in Sydney. Protein is getting too much in the world. Ricki brags about things she's good at for like five hours, and we crown our Caller Of The Week. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nicole Kidman revealed her biggest deal breaker is bad breath after Alexander Skarsgård ate a falafel sandwich before their Big Little Lies kissing scene and she told him to put it away immediately. Harry Styles was spotted on the Brooklyn Bridge with Zoe Kravitz and stopped to fist bump fans who were literally listening to his album, asking what their favorite song was, and apparently has t...

Netflix released bloopers from Morgan Freeman voicing the new Dinosaurs documentary and he's adorably struggling with words like "Uranus" (because it sounds rude), "Aaron Borger genius," and having to restart his intro saying "I'm Morgan Freeman" multiple times. We also revisited Benedict Cumberbatch's legendary inability to say "penguins" during his BBC documentary, calling them "penguans" and "w...

McDonald's stopped automatically giving out straws with drinks and switched to sippy lids instead, which has people confused and furious. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We figure out what the new Gen Z term 'mogging' means'. Sydney has some hilarious Instagram handles. Ricki is furious over Maccas removing straws. And, Amy Shark is on the show to talk about her upcoming album Soft Pop. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Callan Boys from the Sydney Morning Herald joined us with restaurant picks including Bessa in Bondi (dark, sexy Spanish spot with squid ink noodles and martinis), Luca Bakery in Castle Hill by a former MasterChef winner doing giant Monte Carlo riffs with salted vanilla buttercream, and Pantry Store in Stanmore with a $19 hot cross sofa croissant stuffed with chocolate brownie and hazelnut ganache...

We 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....

A Sydney home got its second cop car crashing. Northern Beaches are slowly becoming the third member of the show because of his neighbourhood drama. Travis Kelley is destroying retirement rumours in the Glossy’s. And Ricki has another update on her commentary on women’s bodies. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When Ricki sounded off about people commenting on women’s bodies last week, she shared the message on her socials and started going through the responses. She sent love to everyone who said her message made them feel seen and supported but she also had a few strong words for the men who tried to make the conversation about themselves. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Experts claim showering together is one of the best ways to reconnect and strengthen your relationship because warm water releases feel-good hormones, reduces stress, and creates closeness without distractions—but we asked Sydney if they actually enjoy it or if they're just standing in the cold waiting for their partner to finish washing their hair. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy in...

A neighbourhood war has exploded in the Northern Beaches over boats, trailers, and camper vans hogging parking spots near Narrabeen Lagoon for weeks at a time, with vigilantes spray-painting "MOVE" in giant orange letters on the vehicles—which can result in a $2200 fine or 12 months in jail but residents are fed up with boats clogging already narrow streets. See omnystudio.com/listener for p...

We discovered intimacy coordinators on film sets choreograph every movement and use fabric barriers between actors to avoid touching bits, plus guys sometimes have to leave set to do push-ups or jumping jacks in their little pouches to "manage blood flow" during steamy scenes. Ricki revealed she once had to film a saucy scene for a music video where her record label made her make out with a hot gu...

Aussies are in disarray after their favourite adult website is blocked in the country. Ricki shares the moment she had to make out with a guy on camera for no reason. We play the Emoji Game, and also play Sing! with Em Rusciano.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We discussed Dan Prescott's wedding getting called off after his bucks went out of control, then Maddie from Penrith called in revealing she cancelled her wedding after realising at her hens night (featuring Puppetry of the Penis with the infamous hamburger and poppy seeds) that she wasn't into men anymore—she's now a "fully-fledged adult lesbian." DJ Kelly-O topped that by sharing the time...
