The Grill

Good day, Grillers! Tad has jaw problems, but that's not stopping him from complaining about African airport security. Ben also serves up a beef about a really niche form of YouTube content and I seethe (with jealousy probably) at the leather-clad Empire State Building climbers. Listen until the end for a mum reveal.  ONE BEEF = ONE KISS! SEND 'EM TO US! thegrill@abc.net.au Hosted by Ben Ilobuchi,...

Hello grill nation your boy Tad is finally back from the motherland and ready to grill some very petty things. On today’s ep, Izzy is sick of being on constant surveillance through a certain brand of eye wear, Ben’s tired of electronic gates at supermarkets shutting him off from the free world and I again come for the unruly youth turning restaurants into wild play centres. Sincerely, the mouse hi...

Tad is still in recovery but we truly don't miss him, because we've got an incredible guest this week taking his place. Dee Salmin, author of It's Not Love, Actually, is our first guest to sear some rogue relationship-specific beefs like ghosting, the ick, and having to sleep in a bed with your partner. We decentred men so hard. Except in this episode description. - Ben. Editor's Note: In addition...

With Tad absent due to the urinal incident, Ben and I are holding down the fort this week. You know what they say: when Mr Mouse is away, the cats will play... and we have some serious beef (or chicken, or whatever the hell is in a 'pup parma') to grill. I also bring up the time I used dog shampoo instead of the stuff meant for humans? Izzy xx SEND US YOUR BEEF FOR A LIFETIME OF LOVE AND ADORATION...

Is three BPE (Beefs Per Episode) not enough for you? Then you’re going to love this week’s ep because we’re bringing back a fan-favourite format: Sliders.  Instead of three full meals, we’re serving up a giant foil tray of smaller beefs. The same Grill taste, without all the calories.  -Ben. EMAIL US YOUR BEEF AS A VOICE NOTE YOU COWARDS! thegrill@abc.net.au Hosted by Ben Ilobuchi, Izzy Wight and...

Just like Katy Perry and Chief Keef, we are squashing our beefs with another sizzling episode. Listen (and watch) for Ben's hairline reveal, a lesson in cinema decorum from Tad and the lowdown on my latest issue with Katy Perry, of which there are many. Stay petty, friends! Izzy xx EMAIL US YOUR BEEF AS A VOICE NOTE AND I'LL LOVE YOU FOREVER! thegrill@abc.net.au Hosted by Ben Ilobuchi, Izzy Wight...

Welcome aboard the SS Grill this is your captain Tad speaking. On today’s episode Ben is tired with the lack of order and decorum at the library, Izzy has had enough of overly long standing ovations (unless they’re for us) & I got trapped in a ride share with the most overly talkative human. Over & out grill nation.  BEEFS. EMAIL THEM. NOW.  thegrill@abc.net.au Hosted by Ben Ilobuchi, Iz...

What do arguing with a customer support chatbot, John Travolta’s new look, and people who paint themselves silver and stand very, very still have in common? Other than being examples of losing touch with your humanity, they’re also our beefs for this week. You know the grill. -Ben EMAIL US YOUR BEEF AS A VOICE NOTE YOU COWARDS! thegrill@abc.net.au Hosted by Ben Ilobuchi, Izzy Wight and Tad Harawa...

What's up, meatlovers? We're back again (it truly never gets old) to grill the big stuff: indie concert etiquette, clingy strangers at house parties and tiny plates of food. I also tell another humiliating story, because I just can't help myself. Izzy xx SEND US YOUR BEEFS! thegrill@abc.net.au • Hosted by Ben Ilobuchi, Izzy Wight and Tad Harawa• Production services by Haven't You Done Well Product...

It finally happened … we've all synced up. And sadly Izzy had yet another tram incident. Luckily we have this podcast as a healthy outlet. In this ep Izzy beefs with the Nutflix show Age of Attraction, Ben had the world's most interrupted haircut and I unleash my disdain for Euphoria season 3. Warmest regards, Tad.

The ABC thankfully allowed us back in the studio this week and you're going to be glad they did after you listen to this one. Izzy's cobbler refused to touch her tiny little shoes, Tad's house is being circled by (potentially dangerous) teenagers on e-scooters and I'm sick to death of seeing soulless nostalgic AI videos. The first episode wasn't a fluke guys; we've done it again. Ben x. SEND US YO...

Welcome, hotheads, to the first episode of ABC's The Grill! We're SO excited to kick it off with this absolute sizzler of an ep. Tad wants to scrunch the necks of people who cut in line, I beef with influencer food delivery habits and Ben tells a story about a quiet room that leaves us (almost) speechless. We would never actually be speechless. Hope you love it! Izzy xx EMAIL US YOUR BEEF AS A VOI...

Everyone deserves to have a whine. Join good friends/bad people Ben Ilobuchi, Izzy Wight and Tad Harawa on their 'comedy' 'podcast' as they meet to air out their petty grievances and deal with your listener-submitted gripes as well. Are you the latest victim of Melbourne's ambient techno scene? Seen one too many celebrities go to space? Spiralling because of a QR code menu? It's ok, you have The G...

Big things grilling… I wanted to make it a surprise but they forced me to put it in the title, so blame them for ruining the tension, not me. The rumours are true, we have a new home.

Mwahaha welcome to the second-ever Grilloween. Will this one be a trick or a treat? Watch on YouTube or Spotify.

This is late, guys, there's no excuse (I don't mean that as an apology). This week, we cover Tad's funny stomach, getting TV shows spoiled, punitive trickster neighbours and friends bringing up our sordid pasts. Leave us a beef in a 5-star review and we will read and grade that sumb*tch in the next episode.

Tad was in Bali so it's just Ben and Izzy this week. Izzy has a bone to pick with Miu Miu and fashion influencer Wisdom Kaye, while Ben is ready to exile anyone who has a milkshake with their lunch.

We got some sliders for y'all! Yummy! Please rate us 5 stars on Apple Podcasts and Spotify for the love of God.

Izzy is back from Europe and right back into the swing of things after embarrassing herself at a public toilet in the birthplace of the urinal (France).

Bad news: Izzy isn't here again. Good news: we've (momentarily) replaced her with the incredible Alexei Toliopoulos! Don't ask us how we pulled this off, just enjoy the episode. We discuss stiffies, seppuku, advertising and the foibles of Letterboxd.

Oh God, another bloody episode huh? Tad hates seeing people feel joy, Izzy hates snacking, Ben hates celebrity stylists. Do these guys like ANYTHING?

We've got huge news...that we can't say yet. Instead, Ben explains why he thinks there are too many Geminis in the world, Tad tells how he got scammed out of $99 in a completely avoidable fashion and Izzy shouts from the rooftops that Sabrina Carpenter should be able to go down on whoever she wants!

I know we said there'd be a video but we lied about that, sorry. Also, wish Izzy a happy birthday.

This one was recorded back-to-back with last week's episode so if we sound tired or deranged, it's because we absolutely were.

Jesus returns from heaven, Katy Perry returns from space, the Grill returns to whatever platform you're listening to this on.
