We kicked things off with the now iconic Bondi swimmer who did her laps at Icebergs while scrolling her phone like it was just another Tuesday. Then we took to the skies for Air New Zealand’s inflight rave where passengers basically got a DJ set between Auckland and Sydney. Tim’s chat with Lewis Capaldi gave us life, as always, before we dove into a Glossy’s buffet featuring Raye defending Taylor, Leo keeping things low key, and Tyra spinning a full Santa conspiracy at The Beresford. We wrapped with the tale that just won’t quit, the scientific proof that women’s farts apparently smell worse, and look, we’re still recovering.

A new study from the actual “King of Farts” claims women’s farts smell worse than men’s, and the show absolutely lost it. The gang broke down the science, which says blokes might let out more volume, but ladies pack a punch thanks to higher levels of hydrogen sulphide. Things spiralled fast into wet-lettuce chat, egg dumpling trauma and the undeniable horror of kids’ farts on planes. A caller even confessed to stinking out an entire long-haul flight out of pure spite.

Lewis Capaldi popped in for a yarn and honestly, it felt like catching up with an old mate at the pub. Tim grilled him about life on the road, writing one of his most vulnerable songs and why releasing it scared him more than actually creating it. Lewis opened up about taking a proper break from songwriting because he felt “creatively bankrupt” and is gearing up to start fresh in January. He also laughed about his meteoric rise from sinking beers at Splendour to billboards in Times Square and shared why having mates like Yungblud and Ed Sheeran in his corner keeps him sane. Plus, he told the very wholesome story of discovering Aussie opener Fletcher Kent and why he knew immediately he wanted him on the tour.

Joel was fresh from Melbourne and absolutely buzzing after seeing Gaga tear the roof off Mayhem Ball. We then spiralled into a TikTok fever dream where a sweet grandma tried to light a birthday cake and basically nearly set the joint on fire. Mailbag was stacked with spicy listener chaos, including one very passionate debate about… diffusers. James Charles learned the Aussie way to squeeze tomato sauce and looked genuinely traumatised. We also unpacked Ellen DeGeneres ditching the UK because farm life is “a bit boring” and Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry hard launching their situationship. Plus we asked what you're scared of after learning Miley Cyrus is terrified of paper, which honestly feels very Miley.

Lady Gaga has wrapped up her Melbourne shows of the MAYHEM Ball, and of course Australia's biggest monster has some things to say.

It's our final Mailbag of the year and it absolutely popped this week with everybody flexing their Spotify Wrapped. Madeleine, Mackenzie, Visenya and Kasper all slid into the DMs proudly showing they had us in their top listens which made our little podcast hearts grow three sizes. Joel then lost his mind because a full blown celeb gave our Rosie O’Donnell video a like on Insta and he has not emotionally recovered. Ricki got a follow up from Cathy and John who are still deep in their Marketplace investigation trying to work out if that Woodland Goddess painting really is her long lost twin. And Tim has officially become a timfluencer because the girlies want his diffuser link and, yes, they also want to know exactly where he gets that elite prawn toast.

Joel took the day off because Gaga kicks off the Aussie leg of the Mayhem Ball tonight and honestly fair enough. We dived into Google’s top search trends for 2025 and then fell into a full feta chat after news of a sheep and goat plague in Greece that could squeeze global supplies. In the Glossys we hit everything from Katy Perry being mistaken as Justin Trudeau’s partner to Kim’s “ultimate bush thong” Christmas gifts and the wild backstory behind “Die With A Smile.” We also checked out the woman going viral for swimming at Bondi while scrolling her phone and threw back to our Gaga chat from March where she hinted this tour was coming.

We got talking about Greece’s sheep and goat plague and how it might lead to a global feta shortage. That sent us into a quick debate about what actually belongs in a Greek salad, how much feta is too much and why wet lettuce ruins everything.
