00:00Around the world, it's time to look back and unpack the week from the cheap seats
00:05with special guests, comedian and musician Reggie Watts
00:09and sports broadcaster Abbey Jelmy.
00:12And now, here are your hosts, Melanie Bracewell and Carlo Ritchie.
00:18Thank you so much for joining us in the cheap seats.
00:22As we dive into the deep end of the week's events with some very special guests.
00:25And a very special welcome back to film and host Carlo Ritchie.
00:31He's been away for two weeks now. Where is Tim?
00:34That's right, he's in Santa's workshop making tiny toys.
00:37That's perfect.
00:38No, we do have a massive show this week.
00:39Big Brother fans, Mal Dracena is going to be on the show to chat about the first week in the Big Brother house.
00:46All of our machines, Doss.
00:47But let's get into the news. Where do we start?
00:49People magazine has officially named it Sexiest Man Alive for 2025.
00:53There he is there. That is crazy.
00:57I mean, he's sexy, but alive, we're not sure.
01:02No, Bob Catter was honoured with a portrait to celebrate 50 years of politics.
01:06And Anthony Albanese was there.
01:08The long-time federal member posing for photos and shaking hands with the Prime Minister.
01:14Are they shaking hands or doing a drug deal? It's hard to say.
01:17Very cool, very cool.
01:19Very cool. Well, Bob Catter, he's had a long career in politics.
01:21We've seen him dressed as a Peek. We've seen him dressed as the Grim Reaper.
01:28Yes, they take Book Week very seriously at Parliament.
01:30Yeah.
01:32But Bob Catter, he's a difficult man to sum up.
01:35Quite a challenge for the artist.
01:36He's like Dirty Harry meets Willy Wonka.
01:40You've got to ask yourself a question, Charlie Bucket.
01:45Are you feeling lucky, Tom?
01:47Unfortunately, the chocolate river is filled with crocodiles.
01:50Moving on now and sticking with politics.
01:53And Anthony Albanese has been busy unveiling a new health policy.
01:56You couldn't ask for a more Australian acronym than ACDC, Mr Speaker.
02:01Anthony Albanese hoping this will put the nation on a highway to health.
02:05And that joke took her all night long.
02:09Oh, great.
02:11And Anthony Albanese received some high praise this week.
02:14And when we say high praise...
02:16What is wrong with the way Australia's run?
02:21Well, we're a little bit lucky at the moment.
02:23We have a Prime Minister who's very much motivated by trying to help everybody.
02:32Very confusing for Joe Rogan.
02:34He thought Russell Crowe was the Prime Minister.
02:36That is very confusing.
02:38Well, meanwhile, there are rumblings in the opposition,
02:41with some questioning Susan Lee's leadership.
02:43Yes, for more, let's turn to 10.
02:44Senior political correspondent.
02:46Ashley Raper joins us now at the desk.
02:48Ashley, is there really going to be a move on Susan Lee next week?
02:51No.
02:52Cool.
02:53And for a second opinion, Mel?
02:56I don't know.
02:57You heard it here first.
02:58That's from 10 News Minus.
03:01Well, net zero is a contentious topic.
03:03Party members gathered to discuss the issue.
03:05Including the Shadow Energy Minister, Dan Tien, Senior Liberals, Angus Taylor and Jane Hume are also there.
03:11But Conservative MP and net zero opponent, Andrew Hastie, wasn't because he says he has a doctor's appointment for a shoulder injury from a jiu-jitsu accident.
03:20That's one way to tackle climate change.
03:24Put it in a headlock.
03:26The oldest excuse in the book.
03:29When it comes to net zero, there is one man pushing back.
03:32You want a Barnaby fix this morning?
03:33Well, we've got it.
03:34He's weighing in on net zero and the future of the coalition.
03:37Plus, see the moment West Aussie dad performs a citizen's arrest in just his knickers.
03:41And is that still Barnaby Joyce?
03:44It's hard to tell.
03:46Knickers is an interesting one, though, isn't it?
03:48Knickers.
03:48You don't see many men wearing knickers.
03:52I've got a lot of pants man myself.
03:56Carlo, this isn't Q&A.
03:57You just...
03:58Any other thoughts on undies?
04:03Speaking of renewable energy...
04:06You physically can't sit and face it.
04:15You become blinded by the reflection.
04:21It's like looking at the sun, which we're not supposed to do.
04:24Stop looking at it!
04:26Standing, staring at it.
04:27You know what you should do in that exact spot?
04:30Install your own solar panel.
04:32Help! Get the reflection!
04:33Get your own energy!
04:35To the US now.
04:37Overnight, a Democratic sweep.
04:39A very significant wind for Democrats tonight.
04:41Zoran Mamdami has become the elected mayor of New York City.
04:45Yes, this was huge in the US.
04:47Elections held around the country, electing new mayors and governors.
04:50And a special shout-out to Virginia candidate Winsome Sears,
04:53who gave an articulate concession speech.
04:54So, don't give up.
04:57We must never give up.
04:59To give up...
05:01Is to give up.
05:07Sorry, just writing that down.
05:08Yeah.
05:10Oh, God.
05:10I think her speechwriters may have.
05:13Ask not what your country can do for you.
05:17Or do ask.
05:18Like, staying in the US.
05:20A possible end to the longest government shutdown in American history.
05:24This is massive.
05:25Yes, and the ramifications of the shutdown will continue to hurt the US.
05:29The American economy, for all its robustness at the surface, underneath, is in quite a lot of trouble.
05:34Exactly.
05:35Oh, yeah.
05:35Big time.
05:36Big time.
05:37Yeah, that's for sure.
05:38And not the only issue raised on 2GB.
05:40Why are giraffes so tall?
05:42So tall.
05:44The big questions.
05:45Yeah, it's huge.
05:46And that was Michael McLaren.
05:47We love his show.
05:48He was actually discussing those classic questions that kids ask you.
05:52And they often come at a moment you are not ready.
05:55Like, you've just sat down for dinner.
05:57Yeah.
05:58What's death?
06:01Okay.
06:03It's what Bob Catter's dress does, I think.
06:08Back to the US now.
06:09It's been a difficult week for Trump.
06:10At a football game in Maryland.
06:12A hostile welcome to the President.
06:15Yes.
06:15Yes.
06:16Not only was he being booed.
06:17But he had to try and read a declaration at the same time.
06:22I am senior in.
06:25Anyway, Mel, read the autocue.
06:37Oh, that's my bad.
06:39Trump, he's trying to pull the attention to trade deals and critical minerals.
06:44There wouldn't be a car made in the entire world.
06:46There wouldn't be a radio.
06:47There wouldn't be a television.
06:48There wouldn't be internet.
06:49There wouldn't be anything.
06:50Because magnets are such a part.
06:51Now, nobody knows what magnets are.
06:55Nobody knows what magnets are.
06:57I certainly don't.
06:58I certainly don't.
06:59Trying to figure out what death is.
07:02Not all bad news for Trump.
07:03He did have a special visitor.
07:05Pauline Hanson, with the Senate in session,
07:07decides to get as far away as possible
07:10at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
07:13Yes.
07:14Pauline was doing a speech.
07:16And she says she has a lot in common with Trump.
07:18President Trump and I have a lot in common in many ways.
07:22We actually are a chaotic country.
07:24We're not traced to the people that we represent.
07:27Is she doing a speech at a food court?
07:29What is going on?
07:30I loved it there.
07:32No one was paying attention.
07:33But look, she's got a lot in common with Trump.
07:36We've both been on the celebrity practice.
07:38Exactly.
07:39Let's move on now and let's check in with the royal family.
07:42This is what it's all been about for Prince William this week.
07:48This is what it's all been about.
07:50I do think Kate on the right is a little underdressed.
07:53But no, this is a huge event.
07:56Yes, this is the annual COP summit this year held in Brazil.
07:58It's all about tackling climate change and looking after the planet.
08:0113 kilometres of lush forest cleared
08:04to make way for the world's annual climate change meeting.
08:08Typical.
08:08They gave it a Brazilian.
08:09Which was nice.
08:10So let's move on to some big royal news this week.
08:15Welcome, Princess Anne.
08:16The hardest working royal is down under.
08:18Princess Anne heads to Melbourne today.
08:20Yes, Princess Anne.
08:22The hardest working royal, yes, which her butlers can attest to.
08:25Yes.
08:27She's visiting our shores and Channel 7 got exclusive images.
08:30Swamped by security, Princess Anne touched down at Sydney Airport
08:34around 7 this morning.
08:36I don't know what's going on with this camera operator.
08:38He's either holding another lens or taking a very long sip of a coffee.
08:43That is beautiful, beautiful pictures.
08:47And Princess Anne went to Admiralty House.
08:49Just in, we have the first pictures of the Princess Royal at Admiralty House.
08:53Wow.
08:53In there somewhere, underneath all of the slate roof.
08:57And, uh...
08:57Yeah.
08:58Yeah.
08:59She's in there somewhere.
09:00Yeah, in the house, I get it, yeah.
09:02Under the slate roof.
09:03She's inside.
09:04What is the shot showing us?
09:06Oh, actually, I think we've got her now.
09:07There.
09:08Yep.
09:08And...
09:09Is...
09:09There she is there.
09:10Yep.
09:11And that's what she's here for.
09:12She's...
09:12She's going to be at Remembrance Day ceremonies tomorrow.
09:15No, she's gone back inside.
09:16I don't think that is her.
09:17Anyway.
09:18Her name is the hardest-working royal.
09:21Her name is the hardest-working royal to spot.
09:24No, Princess Anne, she's notoriously hard to spot.
09:28I think they managed to just get one photo of her.
09:31And if you look, it's just so...
09:33It's so difficult.
09:34I'm so bad at these.
09:35If you just want to zoom in, there she is on the...
09:37Oh, there she is!
09:38We found her!
09:39We found her!
09:39We found her!
09:41We found her!
09:43It was very satisfying.
09:45Many royalists were excited to see Princess Anne.
09:47The royal couple were then off to Admiralty House,
09:50much to the delight of local tourists.
09:53Would you like to see Princess Anne?
09:54Yeah, we're pumped.
09:58We all are.
09:59Might want to widen your Tinder range.
10:02Some got up close and personal.
10:04Though some like a little less polish.
10:06I just think she's so down-to-earth and she's the naughty one.
10:12Will we say she's the naughty one?
10:13I don't.
10:14I think there's another naughty one.
10:15Speaking of the royals, this has caused debate.
10:19A royal rumble is unfolding in Melbourne's north.
10:23Residents of Prince Andrew Avenue in Laylaw
10:26want the controversial name of their street changed.
10:29Yes, they want to change it to Prince Andrew Court.
10:32That would be much more appropriate.
10:34Local residents, they've had their say.
10:36Is he that bad?
10:37I know he's bad, but he did.
10:39He's an idiot.
10:40But I mean, everybody.
10:41Sometimes you always have an idiot in the family.
10:44Nobody's perfect.
10:45Nobody's perfect.
10:48Couldn't have said a bit of myself.
10:50So what happens next?
10:51If the decision is made to remove the Prince Andrew sign, another decision awaits.
10:57What the street of 43 homes should be called instead.
11:01That's Paul Dowsley reporting from Epstein Traffic Island, which is nice.
11:06No, look, we have a sneak peek of the new name.
11:09There it is.
11:10Is he that bad?
11:11I know he's bad what he did.
11:12He's an idiot.
11:13But I mean, everybody.
11:14Sometimes you always have an idiot in the family.
11:17Nobody's perfect.
11:19Avenue, I think.
11:20We've got to take a break.
11:22Back with more on the Chief Seats.
11:23Right after this.
11:34Welcome to the Chief Seats.
11:36It's a pleasure to join us this week.
11:38Now, let's check the latest headlines.
11:40The world record for the longest salami sausage has gone to an Argentinian city once again.
11:47Yes, they had to clear a large chunk of the Amazon forest.
11:50Yeah, but if you cut back the forest, the salami sausage looks a lot bigger, I find.
11:57Let's move on.
11:59Let's move on.
12:00Let's move on.
12:02To some technology news now.
12:04Elon Musk is on course to become the world's first trillionaire.
12:07This is huge.
12:09Finally, some good news for billionaires.
12:11One trillion dollars.
12:12How do you even quantify that?
12:14Which would be enough to buy 2,000 of Jeff Bezos' yachts or the whole country of Switzerland.
12:19Well, bloody three avocados, am I right, guys?
12:24It's bloody crazy groceries.
12:27Let's take a look at the announcement in Texas.
12:29I mean, pause for a sec, because A, we're watching pictures of Musk.
12:33Oh, sorry.
12:34That's Musk on the left.
12:35It's very difficult.
12:36It's very difficult to tell, to be fair.
12:39Yeah, Jeff Bezos on the right.
12:39Yeah.
12:40It's all about these robots.
12:42And it's not just Musk creating humanoid robots.
12:45Imagine shopping being this easy.
12:48Can you help me hold my bags, please?
12:49No, you're not seeing things.
12:51This is a robot.
12:54And it's helping...
12:57...carry bags to the car.
12:58Provided those bags are completely empty.
13:04That was so light.
13:06The robot even dropped into the Today Show.
13:08Hi, Woody.
13:08Good to see you.
13:09Hello, Woody.
13:10Woody's been shopping for you guys.
13:12Woody's gone out to the shops and can actually bring the bags to you.
13:18So authentic.
13:19Life-changing, isn't it?
13:21Yeah, yeah.
13:21It has the same attitude as a Woolies worker, which is great.
13:24And moving on now, and the countdown for Christmas is on.
13:29And Channel 9 are getting right into the spirit.
13:31This Christmas is about celebrating smart until Santa fixes the cost of living crisis.
13:36Is that his job?
13:37I don't know.
13:39No, there's so much excitement at this time of year.
13:41Many are headed to the shops early, including, actually, a visitor to our shores, US musician
13:47Jelly Roll.
13:48Yeah, he was not happy about his shopping experience.
13:50American singer Jelly Roll has hit out at a luxury store in Sydney for a less-than-courteous
13:56welcome.
13:57The Louis Vuitton in Sydney legitimately just treated us like we were finna come in and
14:01rob that place.
14:03I have never been looked at more like a...
14:06Listen, the last time I was looked at like a criminal this bad, I was an actual criminal.
14:13Wow!
14:14That's good to see, Jelly Roll.
14:15What's your favourite Jelly Roll track, Carla?
14:17All of them, Mel.
14:19All of them.
14:19From the highs to the lows.
14:21I love his oof.
14:24Wow, that's perfect.
14:25Well, Jelly Roll, his concert was a huge success.
14:28Fans are getting into the spirit at the Merge 10, making last-minute purchases with country
14:32music lovers travelling from far and wide.
14:35So I hit a little roo about 60km out of Mount Isa and mucked up my car.
14:41And funnily enough, that's actually my favourite Jelly Roll song.
14:45I love those lyrics.
14:46It's beautiful.
14:47Beautiful, yeah.
14:48Now, back to Christmas.
14:49This was exciting for the kids.
14:51Forget Mariah, Bluey is coming out with a brand new Christmas playlist.
14:55We cannot wait for this to drop.
14:56We cannot wait, yeah.
14:58It's going to be huge.
15:00And friend of the show, Ned Balm, spoke with one of the creators.
15:03You wrote one of the songs on this album.
15:04It's a very personal song to you.
15:06Tell us more about I Don't Have a Chimney.
15:07You'll never guess what it's about.
15:13Just spoiler alert, she doesn't have a chimney.
15:17We can't talk about Christmas though, Carla, without mentioning our favourite Christmas event
15:21here at the Cheap Seats.
15:23Adelaide's seasonal magic officially unwrapped.
15:26This is huge in Adelaide's.
15:32That's right, it's the National Pharmacy's Christmas pageant.
15:34An incredible parade where locals get a chance to become royalty.
15:38Joining me now is Dave, who is this year's pageant king.
15:41Doesn't he look the part?
15:42Looking magnificent.
15:43Dave, no pressure, but you do look sensational.
15:46Yes, we lose a prince, but we gain a king.
15:49That is true.
15:49Nature finds a way.
15:52And every year we see those amazing floats.
15:55What a happy elf we've got here, Brenton.
15:57Huge smile there.
15:59Harry, the happy elf, spreading the joy of Christmas.
16:03I think Harry's man spreading the joy.
16:07No, the parade's on the return of our favourite commentator, Brenton Ragless.
16:11And he's saying what we're all thinking.
16:13But of course, trains go hand in hand with Christmas, don't they?
16:16This guy, he loves trains.
16:17Another train.
16:19What would Christmas be without trains?
16:20What would Christmas be without trains?
16:24Probably Christmas.
16:26Enough about trains.
16:28Yes, in the theme of Big Transport, this is the 12 days of Christmas,
16:31which depicts a massive road train.
16:34Acknowledging the truck drivers who...
16:37It's great.
16:40It's the sound of Christmas, isn't it?
16:42Yeah, yeah.
16:43It's all about celebrating with the people you love.
16:45Christmas is in town this festive season.
16:47So grab your friends, family, head into the city.
16:50Why not grab your own family?
16:51My family are actually there already with one of my friends.
16:56This is my favourite float at the parade, though.
16:58Designed by David Blythe, who's also a member of the South Australian Music Hall of Fame.
17:04And his mouthful is going to play, Cole Chisel.
17:06Silent night.
17:08And that's on the Bluey album as well.
17:17Well, Lauren Chesire was on deck to get the crowd up on their feet.
17:21Let's do a bit of a Mexican wave, everyone.
17:23Let's do a Mexican wave, everyone.
17:24Come on!
17:25Come on!
17:26Let's...
17:27Yeah, everybody!
17:28Everybody!
17:28Everybody!
17:29Get into it!
17:30More of a Swiss wave there, just not getting involved.
17:33An amazing parade, an incredible parade.
17:35What more can we say?
17:36I love trucks, I love trains.
17:38Exactly!
17:39Exactly!
17:40We move on now, though, Carlo.
17:41It's time to get rid of the Christmas spirit.
17:44From cheer to fear, from Christmas to Crimessmas.
17:48That's right.
17:49You know what time it is.
17:50It's crime time!
17:56Watch out, Crimson thugs.
17:58Before we started this segment years ago, crime was rampant.
18:02Now it still is.
18:04But that's not the point.
18:06This is where we tackle all of the biggest crime stories of the week.
18:09And where do we start?
18:11Confidential documents about the heist at the Louvre
18:14have revealed the password to the security system
18:17was simply the word Louvre.
18:19OK.
18:21Hard to know what went wrong there.
18:22Yeah, my first guess was le password.
18:25Police have had a busy week.
18:27And a viral video of a maimed creature
18:29has sent Irish police on a wild lion chase.
18:33It turns out the animal was, in fact,
18:35a newfoundland dog with a fresh haircut.
18:38And to make things more confusing,
18:40the misidentified pooch is actually named Mouse.
18:44A lot to unpack.
18:46I think if you carry the...
18:48He was actually travelling with a scarecrow and a tin man.
18:51Sorry.
18:52I'm just hacking into the Louvre.
18:54Back to Australia now.
18:57This is one bold blondie
18:59giving her own golden glow
19:01to the Gold Coast glitter strip.
19:04Wow.
19:05We've sent Maltracina to the Gold Coast
19:06for one week.
19:09And she's completely out of control.
19:10No, this is shocking.
19:12And you were making their kebabs.
19:13I was.
19:13And you didn't even notice.
19:14I didn't notice.
19:15I did not notice.
19:16You can't really see the angle of it
19:17squatting down and going hard.
19:19Squatting down and going hard.
19:22That's actually my favourite jelly roll song.
19:23That is, that is.
19:25Sticking with crime
19:26to a big discovery at the border.
19:28Police are hunting a thief
19:30who broke into a post office on Semaphore Road
19:32before trying to break into a shed
19:34at the rear of a nearby bakery.
19:37Two bakers inside heard the commotion
19:39and confronted the intruder
19:41grabbing a rolling pin
19:42and chasing him down the street.
19:46That was a chilling recreation of the event.
19:49They're getting a bit much,
19:50these recreations, I tell you what.
19:52Locals were showing their support.
19:53I think it's pretty hilarious.
19:55Pity they didn't catch him.
19:56Pity they didn't clunk him on the head.
19:58Wow.
20:00Luckily, there are some tips out there
20:03to help people deal with crime.
20:04And tonight, we can reveal other simple tips
20:06to keep your house safe.
20:08In just seconds,
20:10a room disappears.
20:13Would-be thieves engulfed by a non-toxic fog.
20:16He said simple tips.
20:19You've got non-toxic fog.
20:21You've got to get Russell Crowe in there.
20:24You've got to elect a new pope
20:25in order to get people out of your garage.
20:28This is out of control.
20:29And that was...
20:31All right, let's get back to some cars.
20:36You've got to elect a new one.
20:37All right, let's get back to some cars.
20:38All right, let's get back to some cars.
20:48Tiffany!
20:53Reggie Watts!
20:55Reggie Watts.
20:56The wonderful Reggie Watts.
20:57That's me, Reggie Watts.
20:59Who's got the hearts for...
21:00Reggie Watts!
21:01Oh, boy, you betcha.
21:03Hey, voiceover guy, how about you tone it down a little bit, huh?
21:07Would you please welcome comedian, musician and actor Reggie Watts?
21:13Thank you so much for joining us.
21:15Welcome to the show, Reggie.
21:17We're both very big fans of you.
21:19You've got a massive career.
21:21You're on a regular on one of the biggest podcasts,
21:23one of my favourite podcasts, Comedy Bang Bang.
21:25The house musician on The Late Late Show with James Corden.
21:28Comedian, musician, beatboxer.
21:30You seem to be very good at a lot of things.
21:32Is there anything that you're quite bad at?
21:35Yes, yes, memorising lines.
21:37Oh, OK.
21:38Graham, we've got a little play that we'd like to do with you right now, Reggie.
21:41Oh, great, good.
21:42No, this is amazing.
21:44Actually, our control room had mentioned to us that you beatbox,
21:48and when our playoff was playing for the previous segment,
21:51you were beatboxing along to the tune?
21:54Yeah, yeah.
21:55That...
21:56Oh, my God!
22:05Oh, my God!
22:08That is amazing.
22:10That is my new ringtone.
22:12Thank you so much for that.
22:13Yeah, no worries.
22:14Yeah, it's free.
22:15You are here in Australia.
22:17You've been out and about in Sydney.
22:19I think we've got a video of you on the harbour.
22:20Just absolutely lost the words.
22:28Amazing city.
22:30Your surroundings.
22:32What have you been getting up to on the tour?
22:33Just hadn't seen a harbour...
22:35Harbour...
22:35Harbour.
22:38Is that your Australian accent?
22:40Yeah.
22:40No, it's actually spelled that way.
22:42I don't know if you know that.
22:42It's H-A-B-A.
22:43Oh, hey!
22:44So sorry!
22:46How about that?
22:48Yeah, no.
22:48Our bad!
22:50Whatever.
22:51Whatever.
22:54No, this isn't your first time here in Australia.
22:56What do you like to do when you're at this side of the world?
23:00I just hang out with a bunch of bilbies and just kind of, you know, just hang out.
23:05No, that's not true.
23:06They're good hanging, those bilbies.
23:07They are.
23:08They're much smaller than you think.
23:09And their hands just...
23:14They're chill.
23:15They're very chill.
23:16You do accents.
23:17You do impressions.
23:18What can't you do?
23:19This is amazing.
23:20Yeah, you don't want to know.
23:22No, I usually hang out with friends.
23:24I catch up with friends.
23:25Go out and see.
23:26I saw your amazing club in Sydney, Carousel.
23:30That was incredible.
23:31So, yeah, just try to get out and see as much as I can culturally.
23:34Well, I'm from New Zealand and you've been spending some time in New Zealand.
23:38And can I make a...
23:40You answer a controversial question.
23:42Yeah.
23:42Preference?
23:44Oh, gosh.
23:45That's an awkward question.
23:48Hey!
23:49I, you know, I don't know.
23:51You know, honestly, I haven't spent enough time in the Inn and the Zed.
23:56But I do plan on...
23:58I want to do a tour where I kind of, like, go around New Zealand.
24:02Because usually I just play Auckland.
24:04So, yeah, I hope so.
24:06And I have some friends that live there.
24:07You know, Neil Fenton's there.
24:09And really cool dude.
24:10And he always says, come by the studio.
24:11So, I want to check that out.
24:12And I don't know.
24:13We'll see.
24:14He says the same thing to me all the time.
24:15He does.
24:16Yeah, Neil Fenton's happy to get you.
24:17He does.
24:17He mentions you specifically.
24:19He would.
24:19He would.
24:21Now, you're here during your solo show.
24:22But you're also doing Just for Laughs at the Sydney Opera House alongside a certain Mel Bracewell.
24:27What?
24:27Crazy.
24:29What a line-up.
24:29Now, when you saw that line-up, were you just going, oh my God, I get to meet Melonie Bracewell?
24:36Is that sort of what goes through your head?
24:37Yeah, yeah, yeah.
24:38Well, I mean...
24:39I mean, the more I can Bracewell, the better.
24:43You know, so I...
24:44No, this is big, though, to be at the Opera House.
24:48Yeah, no, I mean, yeah, it's amazing.
24:50Like, you know, I've got...
24:51I've had the fortune of performing there a few times, and it's always been a huge honour,
24:55you know, that the building's incredible.
24:57So, yeah, no, I love galas because I get to see...
25:00For me, it's a free show.
25:01I get to see, like, all the people, you know, that are happening down here,
25:06and it's, like, a good refresher for me.
25:07So I always...
25:08I love it.
25:10Yeah.
25:10Oh, man.
25:11I'm excited to do a show with you.
25:13And you're doing some shows, you know, around Australia.
25:16What can Aussies experience when they come and see you?
25:19Oh, man.
25:21Well, I mean, I don't really prepare, but I...
25:25I just...
25:27I try to come out and, you know, hit up my experience in Australia.
25:31You know, I've been coming to Australia since 1996, so...
25:34You know, and so I just try to draw from that
25:37and also draw from what's going on in the room.
25:39You know, I just try to make it fun and weird and crazy
25:42and try to really rely a lot on the audience
25:45and if they're liking something, then I'll keep doing that.
25:48Well, some audiences here might be familiar with you
25:50from The Late Late Show with James Corden.
25:52We've got a clip of you here jamming with Donald Glover.
25:55Reggie, give me a solo.
26:02Oh, I love you, Reggie.
26:03Oh, I love you.
26:05Oh, I love you.
26:08Oh, I love you.
26:10Oh, I love you.
26:10Oh, I love you.
26:10You know what?
26:11It's really tough.
26:14That is amazing.
26:17You know, those tariffs affecting instruments coming into the country,
26:23it's really tough, isn't it?
26:24It's really sad to see.
26:26Yeah, I always welcome tariffs.
26:28I've always said that.
26:30What was that like, though, that gig, being in the band for that show?
26:34I mean, it was a dream, you know.
26:36You know, I never imagined myself being a band leader,
26:39even though I played a fake band leader in Comedy Bang Bang.
26:43But when I was asked to do that, you know, I was blown away.
26:46But the cool thing was, like, they let me hire the band I wanted
26:49to run it like I wanted, and they never said no to anything.
26:53So I got to really do what I wanted to do,
26:55and it remained that way for the whole eight and a half years.
26:58So that was pretty amazing.
26:59And you got some pretty cool opportunities through the show.
27:01You even got to ask President Obama a pretty important question.
27:04All this talk about Dem-aliens, with the, you know,
27:09what are they, UAFs or whatever they call them,
27:11you know, all the footage and the argument talking about it.
27:13It's like, what is your, like, I know that doesn't necessarily mean aliens.
27:17It is just a UAF.
27:18But I was wondering if you have a theory about that.
27:24Well, when it comes to aliens,
27:28there are some things I just can't tell you.
27:31On air?
27:32What?
27:33That's crazy.
27:35Did he tell you off air?
27:38Yeah.
27:39It was funny, because I think, like,
27:40that was technically the first time a president
27:44had directly commented on it on national television.
27:48That is amazing.
27:48That is so incredible.
27:50You've done so much, Reggie.
27:52You've also got an Australian connection.
27:54You featured in the song with electronic duo flight facilities.
27:59We've got a little clip here.
28:01Sunshine on the baby,
28:03I'm on the phone.
28:09That's amazing.
28:09Are you just filming that out in public
28:11while people are roaming around?
28:13Yeah, yeah.
28:13We were on Venice Beach.
28:15Yeah, we were just running around.
28:17It was really fun.
28:19It was also very hot.
28:20So it was great to wear all that clothing.
28:22You were like the OG Barbie movie.
28:24Yeah, yeah.
28:26Yeah, I mean, that's why it got made.
28:28I think so.
28:29They weren't going to make it.
28:30And then they referenced the video.
28:32We've so loved having you on the show, Reggie.
28:35Reggie is on tour around Australia with his latest show.
28:38And you can see him at Just for Laughs
28:39at the Sydney Opera House with me.
28:41For ticket info, head to bonepresents.com.
28:43And would you please thank Reggie White.
28:59It's been a big week in sport.
29:01Thank you for it.
29:01Would you please welcome journalist
29:02and host of ABC's Offsiders,
29:04friend of the show, it's Abbey Gelman.
29:08Welcome, baby.
29:09Great to have you back on the show.
29:11Always a pleasure.
29:12Yeah, penultimate, if you don't mind.
29:13We love that word in sport.
29:14The penultimate episode.
29:16The semifinal.
29:17The denouement, as I think they often say in sport.
29:22You're such a sporting guy.
29:25Should we talk sport, Nemi?
29:28I'll take it away.
29:29Let's start with Formula One.
29:30And it's been a brutal weekend for Al Oscar Piastri.
29:33He slipped to 24 points behind teammates
29:36slash rivals slash drivers championship leader
29:38in Lando Norris.
29:40Now, the Brit took out the Brazilian Grand Prix
29:41while Piastri crashed out of the sprint
29:43and finished fifth overall.
29:45And you could just feel there wasn't too much love
29:47in the garage afterwards.
29:48His head is down.
29:49He's got a smile on his face.
29:51But what a disappointing weekend.
29:53And the championship, you sense,
29:55is slipping away from him.
29:56Joke's on him.
29:57He didn't wash his hands after pissing.
29:58He's just giving a real...
30:03Now, Tim is usually our F1 aficionado.
30:07What's your knowledge, Carlo?
30:08Oh, zoom, zoom.
30:09You know what I mean?
30:13Wow.
30:13It's great to have some expert knowledge on the panel.
30:16Check out Sky's Martin Brundle
30:17when meeting Billy Idol on the track.
30:19Lovely to see you on the grid.
30:20Good luck.
30:21Lovely to see you.
30:22Cheers.
30:23Right.
30:24Cheers.
30:24They say never meet your idols.
30:29That wasn't good.
30:31Yeah.
30:32No.
30:33Yeah.
30:33It's fine.
30:34With three races to go,
30:36I'm not willing to give up on Oscar just yet.
30:37And he is going to get a stand in his name
30:40at the next Victorian or Melbourne GP.
30:42But this is what else apparently
30:43is putting Melbourne on the map.
30:45Down towards Biko DiPato.
30:46Turn 10 on the inside.
30:48And he needed to do that.
30:49Toot sweet, as they say in Melbourne.
30:53Do we say that?
30:54Yeah, so it's on the license plates.
30:55Maybe colour it on.
30:57Toot sweet for the F1, everyone.
31:00Toot sweet.
31:01Where have we heard that before?
31:02He might have to hit the shops.
31:03Toot sweet.
31:04Oh, goody.
31:04Shaggy.
31:06Now, we are steadily approaching
31:08the Winter Olympic Games for next year
31:10and the new uniform has been unveiled.
31:12And in competitive wear,
31:13elegance meets endurance,
31:15embracing the three Ws.
31:17Waterproof, windproof and...
31:20Where's my Uber?
31:22As if that's the best shop they could get.
31:24And not look up from his phone, too.
31:26They could have been like,
31:27excuse me, sir,
31:28games are not till Feb, I think.
31:30You can look up, probably.
31:31See your legs.
31:32Yeah, check the snow forecast.
31:34Well, there was almost snow
31:35at the racing carnival
31:37because the heels are off,
31:38the fascinators are in the cupboard
31:39because the spring racing
31:40is done and dusted for another year.
31:42The fashion stakes were high,
31:43headlined by international star
31:45Dorit Kemsley.
31:46Real housewife of Beverly Hills,
31:48Dorit Kemsley,
31:48brought a touch of LA to Flemington.
31:51Ooh, a touch of side boob.
31:54I mean, she does look incredibly glam,
31:56but don't worry,
31:57she wasn't showed up by the locals.
31:58This is a gorgeous Kmart number.
32:01It was backless, though,
32:04so we haven't seen the bag.
32:06Who says Australia doesn't have culture?
32:07Yeah.
32:08But there was big news
32:10in the AFL world this week,
32:12announcing a restructuring
32:13of the finals.
32:14The AFL finals
32:15are getting a massive shaker.
32:17Wild card round.
32:18Wild card round.
32:19Wild card round.
32:21The producers
32:21have introduced
32:23a wild card.
32:25Wow!
32:26Oh, my God.
32:28Huge for Abby Chetfield.
32:29She's all across us.
32:30Look, huge for Abby Jummy as well.
32:31It is huge.
32:32But we wanted Andrew Dillon,
32:34not Andrew G,
32:35but it hasn't actually
32:36gone down that well.
32:37Many see it as a money grab
32:39and rewarding mediocrity.
32:41They don't like it.
32:42A lot of people saying
32:43this is all about money.
32:44It is a bit of a cash grab
32:45by the AFL.
32:47The AFL's not into money.
32:49No.
32:50No.
32:50I'm actually all about
32:51rewarding mediocrity,
32:52to be honest.
32:54That's how we got this game.
32:55That's how we got it.
32:58But we are in the business end
33:00of the AFLW season.
33:02They've had a whole year
33:02to perfect their banner skills.
33:04It is the elimination final
33:05at Icon Park.
33:06Oh, my God.
33:08The West Coast Eagles.
33:09Do they leave it
33:10in a tumble dryer
33:11with a cat?
33:12What is going on?
33:14There's a lot going on there.
33:16The cats didn't make
33:17the finals,
33:18but that's all right.
33:18There has been criticism
33:19that the AFLW
33:20is being played
33:21in the warmer months
33:22when you shouldn't
33:22be playing footy.
33:23And this little Blues fan
33:25looked like she could
33:25have used some warmth.
33:26Oh, my God.
33:29She just robbed
33:29an ice cream store
33:30to get there.
33:32She needs a trip to Kmart.
33:34The poncho, clearly.
33:36The wall of his heavy
33:372025 schedule
33:38seems to be catching up
33:39with them.
33:40Their latest loss
33:41was to Italy
33:41and the disappointment
33:42started for the moment.
33:43They lined up
33:44for the anthem.
33:44We're gold,
33:47soil,
33:48and the world
33:49for thought
33:50of our day
33:52and our beauty.
33:56Wait.
33:57Nailed it.
33:59She's saying words.
34:01I feel like,
34:02to be fair,
34:03that's kind of me
34:05when I'm at a sporting event
34:06and the national anthem plays.
34:07Hi, hi, hi.
34:11That was better
34:12than what she did,
34:13to be fair.
34:14All of the vowels,
34:15you'll get it there.
34:17Almost.
34:17Unless you're singing
34:18the national anthem
34:19at a rugby game
34:20because it was not great.
34:21But you have to leave it
34:23to the Samoan National
34:24Rugby League team
34:24to show you
34:25just how an anthem
34:26should be done.
34:32That was also
34:33Oscar Piastri's face
34:35when he saw
34:35Lando Norris
34:36win.
34:36Oh, what has happened?
34:39But they did take
34:40that emotion
34:41into the first moments
34:42of the match.
34:42They are on top
34:44physically.
34:47That clip has
34:48absolute inner relevance.
34:49We just want to show it.
34:51Clearly.
34:51That was Kim Kardashian,
34:53I think.
34:54A reverse Kim Kardashian,
34:55as they call it
34:56in the sporting fields.
34:58But are you ready
34:59to feel old?
35:00Because this week
35:01marks remarkably
35:02the 20th anniversary
35:03of John Aloisi's
35:05historic penalty kick
35:06that took the Socceroos
35:08to the World Cup
35:08for the first time
35:09in 32 years.
35:11Now, remove Cathy
35:12in 2000
35:13because she lives
35:14in her own sphere.
35:15It's arguably
35:16the greatest sporting
35:16moment we've ever had
35:17in Australia.
35:19Okay, so you didn't
35:20see my netball final.
35:23Oh, wow.
35:24What a glaring emission.
35:25I mean,
35:27it would be a wild card,
35:28maybe.
35:28Maggie?
35:29No, it's good.
35:31Yeah.
35:31With that kick
35:31that United Nation
35:32airs this Friday
35:33on Channel 10.
35:34Do not miss it.
35:35Do not miss it.
35:35On that note,
35:36we've got to take a break.
35:36Would you please
35:37say,
35:37I'm a gentleman.
35:50Welcome back
35:51to a trip seat.
35:52It's time for show
35:53this.
35:53Actually,
35:54let's let someone
35:54else do the introduction.
35:55Please welcome
35:56your Big Brother host,
35:58Mel Chassina.
36:02Chassina.
36:03Mel, Mel, Mel, Mel, Mel.
36:06Oh, my God.
36:08Beating to us
36:09live from the Gold Coast.
36:11Congratulations
36:12on Big Brother, Mel.
36:13Where are you right now?
36:14Oh, I'm actually
36:15in Big Brother's
36:16diary room.
36:18Channel 10
36:18haven't given me a hotel,
36:19so I've been sleeping
36:20here at night.
36:20Okay, yeah, that's good.
36:22Yeah.
36:22Amazing.
36:23Are you loving filming
36:24up there on the Gold Coast?
36:25Yeah, well, you know
36:26what they say about
36:27Queensland.
36:27It's beautiful one day
36:28and it's perfect the next.
36:30Welcome back
36:31to Big Brother 2025 launch.
36:34The OG is well
36:36and truly back.
36:38Oh, my gosh.
36:40Incredible.
36:41You were out
36:42in the rain.
36:43What was it like
36:43being out there
36:44in the elements?
36:45I don't know
36:46if it was rain.
36:47I think the stage
36:48is just below
36:49a Gold Coast kebab shot.
36:51Oh, yes, of course.
36:51So we're still not sure.
36:52Oh, that does seem to happen,
36:55doesn't it?
36:56Technically, the weather
36:57did improve, right?
36:58We thought we could do
36:59the show in sunny Queensland
37:00and cost a living crisis.
37:01We could save on a roof,
37:02but ironically,
37:03we spent $50,000
37:04on ponchos.
37:05You did.
37:05That's a huge,
37:06huge budget.
37:08What's it been like, though,
37:09being there in the Gold Coast?
37:11What have you been doing
37:12in between the shows?
37:14Oh, it's been so much fun.
37:15And so it's actually
37:16really interesting
37:17because my change room
37:18is right next to the house
37:19and my change room
37:21is toilet cubicles.
37:23And so I'm not allowed
37:24to make...
37:25It's showbiz, guys.
37:27It's all glam.
37:28So I have to be super quiet
37:29when I'm around
37:30the Big Brother house.
37:32But during, you know,
37:34the days,
37:34I've been going on
37:35some of the rides
37:36at Dreamworld.
37:37Oh, my gosh.
37:38Pitting up the gift shop.
37:39Are you tall enough
37:40to do this?
37:41No, it's all right.
37:45We've got to talk
37:46a little bit more
37:47about Big Brother.
37:48I know you've got
37:48a Black Swan ballet recital
37:51to get to later, but...
37:54It's that on the weekend.
37:56How many housemates
37:57are there in the
37:57Big Brother house?
37:59There's now 13.
38:00So we had 12
38:01and then an extra Jane
38:02entered last night.
38:03Well, the contestants,
38:04they're getting to know
38:05each other quite well.
38:06Wait, Colin?
38:07Colin.
38:07Colin.
38:08Colin.
38:09Colin.
38:09I've got it.
38:10C-O-L-I-N.
38:12Yes.
38:12Dot it.
38:14What?
38:15I wish you never
38:16discovered the name Colin.
38:19It was the Irish spelling.
38:20It confused it.
38:21Yeah, she had a colonoscopy.
38:24And 21-year-old Colin,
38:25he was actually quite impressed
38:26with the amenities, wasn't he?
38:27We got mad tuna storage.
38:29Mad tuna storage.
38:31This house has everything.
38:34But to be fair,
38:35I'm very jealous
38:36because I knew the housemates
38:37were going to be on rations,
38:38but I didn't know
38:39the host was as well.
38:40Wow.
38:41It's been dire.
38:42What have you been eating now?
38:44You know, like,
38:45school camp?
38:46Yeah.
38:46And everything looks like
38:48stroganoff?
38:50School camp?
38:51That's where Tim is
38:52at the moment, actually.
38:54No.
38:55Do you know how it's actually
38:56been fuelling me, though?
38:58Oh, she's brought
38:59the sponsor away there.
39:00Of course she has.
39:01Of course she has.
39:03Corporate going.
39:03Big thanks to our sponsor.
39:05I think...
39:06Do we have some here, too?
39:07Oh, my gosh.
39:07Yeah, under your chair.
39:09Big thank you to our sponsor,
39:10Kellogg's High Protein Granola.
39:12Real nourishment for real.
39:14Thank you so much, Mel.
39:15But, you know,
39:16you haven't just been
39:17doing the show,
39:17you've been watching television
39:18as well while you've been away.
39:20I've been doing it all.
39:21So let's go to the ABC.
39:23There's a new series,
39:24Portrait Artist of the Year.
39:26It's a show where three
39:27different artists compete
39:28in painting portraits
39:29of notable Australians.
39:31Is the real skill in the art
39:32or the celebs' ability
39:34to provide positive feedback?
39:36Wow.
39:38Sorry, I feel like
39:39I should be more audible,
39:40but I'm just taking it in.
39:42Ugh.
39:43Wow.
39:43Oh, I love the light
39:46hitting the face
39:47and the angle of the face.
39:48There is something sort of, like,
39:50contemplative about this one.
39:53And here,
39:55I love the smiling
39:57and the joy in this one.
40:00There's a fine line
40:01between Portrait
40:02and Courtroom Sketch,

40:04Yeah.
