This week we've got two guests from either side of hotel quarantine:  DANIEL SLOSS  and  TOM BALLARD!  Sloss is about to quarantine for two weeks so that he can feed his ego by doing comedy on the Gold Coast.

Coming to us from hotel quarantine and their parents' Subaru respectively, we have RUSSELL HOWARD and HARLEY BREEN!
