00:12Hello and welcome to The Weekly. I'm Charlie Pickering. A huge show for you tonight. Nicolette
00:17Minster is here to change the way we get healthy and the funny side of architecture with Tim
00:21Ross and Grand Designs icon Kevin MacLeod. And as always we've watched all the news so that you
00:29don't have to. So let's get the show on the road with The Week. We kick things off with Thursday
00:38and the entire world was still sifting through the Epstein files due to the monumental number
00:44of documents in the latest dump. To the fallout from the latest release of the Jeffrey Epstein
00:49documents they include communications between the rich and powerful. Quite a bit to go through
00:53more than 3 million pages, 2,000 plus videos and in terms of the number of images more
01:00than 180,000. If you pile all the documents released on top of one another we're told it
01:06will be twice the height of the Eiffel Tower. Ah yes as is known the Awful Tower. It's also
01:12equal to 30 great pyramids or 80 big pineapples worth of incriminating evidence. The new
01:18files feature familiar names like Musk, Gates, Branson and Bannon as well as Hollywood elites
01:25like Steve Titch who produced Forrest Gump, the story of a slow-witted hero who accidentally
01:30witnesses the biggest events in history. And also Brett Ratner who produced Melania, the
01:36story of a slow-witted hero who accidentally witnesses the biggest events in history.
01:46But if you think no one in their right mind would want to be associated with Epstein, ex-Prince Andrews,
01:53ex-girlfriend Lady Victoria Harvey, reckons being on the list was a sign of social status.
01:59So like if you were on the scene and you were powerful like to be honest like if you're
02:03not in those files it would be an insult because it just means that you were a bit of a
02:09loser.
02:10Right, so the people who aren't in the files are these.
02:12Yes.
02:13Well if being in the Epstein files makes you cool then this guy is the Fonz.
02:20But despite so many names being revealed, the only big name to suffer any consequences is Andrew,
02:27whose brother this week dropped a bombshell.
02:29The King has made clear in words and through unprecedented actions his profound concern at allegations
02:36which continue to come to light in respect of Mr Mountbatten-Windsor's conduct.
02:40If we are approached by police we stand ready to support them.
02:44The King's a snitch, you know I suspected it is coronation he was wearing a wire.
02:52The punishment Buckingham Palace had in store for Andrew was positively draconian.
02:57Finally forced out, the former prince, now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, has officially left
03:03Royal Lodge and will live in a home on Sandringham Estate in Norfolk.
03:08Wood Farm Cottage is where he's gone to, he will stay there until the renovations are complete
03:13at Marsh Farm.
03:14Yes, Andrew is being kicked out of his large mansion into a medium mansion while renovations
03:20are finished on his small mansion.
03:23So from Royal Lodge to Wood Farm Cottage to Marsh Farm, it sounds less like a punishment
03:29and more like something from The Wind in the Willows.
03:33On Friday things got worse for Andrew from Toad Hall with news that not all of his Marsh
03:38neighbours are happy about his arrival.
03:40These people in the local area, they've gone round and they put posters all over the place
03:45so there's a big welcome to Sandringham sign, they put the poster up there and there it
03:50is.
03:51It says, public safety announcement, sweaty nonce in the area.
03:55Hey, hey, hey, hey, that, that is highly defamatory.
04:01I mean, he does not sweat.
04:05On top of that, now that he's not a prince, every piece of palace gossip is back under the
04:10microscope.
04:10I can tell you some other very nasty things.
04:15He has 72 teddy bears on his bed and the staff have to do a proper line up on the
04:25bed and someone
04:26has to come in and teach them that, otherwise he goes absolutely ballistic.
04:31Staff say it's the first time they've ever seen a Tickle Me Elmo cry.
04:39Do you think life's never been worse?
04:41That the world is going to hell in a hand basket?
04:44Well, spare a thought for those who had to live in the good old days.
04:50All right, now how does this thing work?
04:52We read your borrowing card with a light pen.
04:58And what does that do?
05:00It says that you have four books out already and your borrowing rights are suspended.
05:03What a nightmare!
05:06What have you done there?
05:08I've typed in the title of the book that you've requested.
05:10Simple as that?
05:11Yes.
05:12And what's it telling you?
05:14That title is not available in our library, but it is at the Doant Regional Library,
05:19which is a library 10 minutes away by car.
05:22It was a living hell in the good old days.
05:26Coming up, unlikely friends Kevin MacLeod and Tim Ross are joining me at the desk
05:30to explain how they turn architecture into entertainment.
05:33But first, recent data has revealed that health has become the most popular area of study
05:39at university, which suggests that despite the world's best efforts to end itself,
05:43Australians remain committed to surviving it.
05:45Here with more is comedian Nicolette Minster!
05:54Well, what an honour and a privilege it is to have stepped up as The Weekly's health
05:59and wellness correspondent.
06:01I'll admit, I didn't even know you were qualified.
06:04Charlie, I've survived the oral polio vaccine and the Healthy, Wealthy & Wise reboot.
06:10So, let's talk diet.
06:12Oh, must we?
06:13I'm a millennial woman.
06:15Diet is my love language.
06:17But you can relax.
06:19The diet I want to talk to you about, you're already on.
06:22Microplastics.
06:23Microplastics.
06:24Microplastics.
06:25Microplastics.
06:25Microplastics.
06:26Everywhere you turn, people are talking about microplastics.
06:29And I don't mean the cast of Wicked.
06:32It turns out we've been inhaling, sculling and chowing down on plastic for so long,
06:38you'd be forgiven for thinking it's a food group.
06:40You see, the thing is, plastic doesn't biodegrade over time.
06:44It just gets smaller and smaller.
06:46Much like the cast of Wicked.
06:48So where are they all coming from?
06:50To that I raise you.
06:52Where are they not coming from?
06:54They're in our food and drinks.
06:56Our clothes.
06:57The air we breathe.
06:59Microplastics are everywhere.
07:00And now, scientists are finding tiny traces of plastic in our blood, our organs,
07:05and after combing through waste water like a dog owner who's lost a diamond earring,
07:09they've found it in there too.
07:11Wow.
07:12That sounds really serious.
07:13Should we be worried?
07:14It depends who you ask.
07:15I grew up in the 90s.
07:17The height of nutrition was an entire packet of Latina pasta submerged in boiling hot water.
07:23Back then, finding plastic in your food was actually a sign of privilege.
07:29Let me ask another way.
07:30How do we reduce our exposure to microplastics?
07:34Well, I mean, you can try.
07:36You just need to avoid bottled water and single-use plastic.
07:39You don't microwave it.
07:41You don't put it in the dishwasher.
07:42You don't breathe.
07:42You've got to seal up all your holes.
07:43You've got to make a blood pact with a disposable spork and bury yourself alive.
07:48That's really helpful.
07:50You're welcome.
07:51But the thing is, as scientists investigate whether our brains are becoming fleshy kinder
07:56surprises, soft plastic schemes are collapsing, the UN Plastic Treaty has quietly fallen apart,
08:03and plastic production continues to hit record highs.
08:06Yet, while industry continues to spike our drinking water with tiny pieces of Lego,
08:12we're being encouraged to fix it by wrapping our sandwiches in beeswax paper,
08:16as if my lunch was packed by Gwyneth Paltrow.
08:20But Charlie, I think I might have a solution.
08:23Oh, please.
08:23Maybe it is up to us.
08:25Maybe the best thing that we can do for the environment is easy.
08:29Eat.
08:30More.
08:31Plastic.
08:32And then, just leave it to the next generation to fix.
08:35In fact, I've been training my kid to remove plastic from bodies for years.
08:40Oh, really?
08:41How's that going?
08:42Well, look.
08:42I'll be honest.
08:45There have been quite a few electrocutions.
08:48But, I mean, who doesn't want a plastic surgeon in the family?
08:52Would you please thank Nicolette Minster!
08:54CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
09:00This is Saturday, and as the world enjoyed the opening ceremony
09:04of the Winter Olympics in Italy,
09:05a cheating scandal cast a shadow over one of the game's premier events.
09:09Now, to perhaps the most extreme attempt
09:12to gain a sporting advantage you're ever likely to hear about.
09:15Allegations that top ski jumpers
09:17have been enlarging their penises with hyaluronic acid.
09:21A scandal now being casually referred to as penis gait.
09:24One word.
09:25Penis gait.
09:26We're talking about penis gait.
09:27Penis gait?
09:28Penis gait nolani.
09:31Wow.
09:32They don't teach you that on Duolingo.
09:37In sporting terms, having a large penis
09:40gives ski jumpers a competitive advantage,
09:42which makes coming last in ski jumping even more embarrassing.
09:47So, how does this all work?
09:50What some ski jumpers have decided, or indeed discovered,
09:53is that this area...
09:55Hang on, let's make this a bit more clear.
09:57..this area in particular is very, very important.
10:01Yeah, well, I could have told you that.
10:04But please, Pablo Dick Carso,
10:07continue your game of naughty Pictionary.
10:10Injecting their nether regions with hyaluronic acid,
10:15filler, basically, they can have a larger appendage
10:19and therefore a larger suit in this particular area,
10:23getting crucial, crucial extra lift
10:27and therefore flying faster and further
10:30through injecting their genitals.
10:33Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
10:35Slow down, Vincent Van Cock.
10:37What exactly is this substance athletes are using
10:41to turn their chipolata into a mortadella?
10:45I'm asking for a friend.
10:48Hyaluronic acid is currently one of the most widely used
10:51active ingredients in cosmetics.
10:53Unlike Botox, it doesn't paralyze muscles,
10:55but instead replenishes tissue.
10:57Basically, it's just a moisturizer.
10:59It draws water into it and famously holds on
11:01to about a thousand times its weight in water.
11:03Maybe he's born with it.
11:05Maybe it's hyaluronic acid
11:06ejected into his wang.
11:08Doctors say while injecting cosmetic acid
11:11into your penis is dangerous,
11:12it does make it look ten years younger.
11:23To Sunday, and guess who's back?
11:26The Coalition is back.
11:27The Liberals and Nationals reuniting
11:29after a bitter 17-day split.
11:32Today, I can announce with David Littleproud
11:35that the Liberals and Nationals are back in coalition.
11:39They both look like they would rather be anywhere
11:42but standing side by side,
11:43like a divorced couple who hate each other
11:46have signed the paperwork
11:47but pretend to like each other
11:49for the sake of the kids.
11:51Two people who absolutely hate each other
11:54reuniting because nobody cares about them individually.
11:57Well, it worked for Oasis.
12:01Hours later, a disastrous news poll found
12:04One Nation's primary vote surging past the coalition
12:07which could result in electoral wipeout.
12:10But is this the result of internal divisions
12:12or a broader trend of conservatives
12:15moving towards far-right parties?
12:17Clive Palmer offered a sophisticated, nuanced take.
12:20I can tell you the Liberal Party
12:22is a party full of wankers.
12:25It's a fair point.
12:26Although, according to the polls,
12:28they are on track to have fewer wankers
12:30than ever before.
12:33Still to come,
12:34little bloody ripper Tim Ross
12:35and Grand Design's great Kevin MacLeod
12:38join me at the desk to give the show
12:39some much-needed structure.
12:41But first, if there's one thing
12:42former PM Tony Abbott loves,
12:44it's probably the monarchy.
12:45But if there's another he really loves nearly as much,
12:49well, that's this wide brown land we call home.
12:52For your viewing pleasure,
12:54here's Tony Abbott's Australia.
12:56In a brand new historical travel show from Sky News,
13:00former Prime Minister and patriot Tony Abbott
13:03explores the origins of this great nation in...
13:07Tony Abbott's Australia.
13:08No, I mean, Australia, a history.
13:12No, this title's not working.
13:14Can we get a rewrite?
13:16Tony Abbott starts every day
13:18journaling about this great country,
13:21typing with two fingers
13:22and saying each word out loud.
13:25Brought a vast influx of immigrants
13:27from all over the world.
13:29And indulging his inner monologue
13:31like his hero, Carrie Bradshaw.
13:34But far from heralding the collapse of...
13:36Happily typing away about this big brown land
13:39in a pair of Manolo Blahniks.
13:42Abbott's Australia.
13:44In the afternoon,
13:45he resembles a Howard Hughes figure,
13:48locking himself in his home cinema,
13:51obsessively watching old Australian film reels
13:54and urinating in jars.
13:56Before randomly yelling at his projectionist.
13:59Stop.
14:00That wonderful song, Song of Australia,
14:02that came out of South Australia,
14:05was one of the songs.
14:07And when he stops rambling about the songs,
14:10he starts singing them.
14:13Australia, Australia, Australia.
14:20What a patriot.
14:22Abbott's Australia.
14:24This week, Tony got out on the road
14:26to learn about our farming history
14:28and lending a hand to the boys in the shearing shed.
14:32Don't be nervous, mate.
14:34I think he thought his throat was going to get cut then.
14:37But after laughing for nearly an hour,
14:40Tony forgot to lock the gates
14:41and he let all the sheep get out.
14:44Oh, Tony!
14:46Oh, no.
14:47Come back, you f***ing sheep.
14:50Abbott's Australia.
14:52Join us next time on Tony Abbott's Australia A History,
14:56when Tony sees fireworks for the very first time.
15:00If you'd like to read along with this series,
15:02don't forget to purchase your copy of Tony's book,
15:05Australia A History,
15:06for the low, low price of $179 Australian dollars,
15:10which includes your own Australian flag cape
15:13and matching pair of budgie smugglers.
15:18Moving through to Monday,
15:20and Aussie Michael Dixon and his Seattle Seahawks
15:22defeated the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl,
15:25but all eyes were on the half-time performance from Bad Bunny,
15:28the first ever performed completely in Spanish.
15:40Great stuff, but not everyone was happy.
15:42To get up there and perform the whole show in Spanish
15:47is a middle finger to the rest of America.
15:50Football, that kind of football, is ours.
15:52They call it American football.
15:54And the half-time show and everything around it
15:56needs to stay quintessentially American.
15:59Not Spanish, not Muslim.
16:01There should be a meatloaf,
16:02maybe some fried chicken,
16:04and an English-speaking performer.
16:06Megan, take it from AFL supporters,
16:08you do not want a meatloaf at the football.
16:12You don't want it.
16:17Staying on Monday,
16:18and time for another edition of...
16:20This week, Trump has been posting up a storm.
16:27Donald Trump has been condemned for posting a video
16:30depicting former U.S. President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, as apes.
16:36U.S. President Donald Trump says he will not apologize
16:38after sharing a racist, AI-generated video
16:41that depicted Barack and Michelle Obama as apes.
16:45White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt
16:47initially defended reposting the video, writing,
16:49This is from an internet meme video depicting President Trump
16:52as the king of the jungle and Democrats as characters from The Lion King.
16:56Incredibly racist and totally inaccurate.
16:59The only monkey in The Lion King is Rafiki,
17:02a crazy shaman healer who practices alternative medicine.
17:05And if that's anyone in U.S. politics, it's obviously RFK Jr.
17:13in Virginia.
17:14With even his Republican allies saying he'd crossed the line,
17:18Trump made it clear that the buck stops with him
17:21by refusing to apologize and blaming someone else.
17:24I gave it to the people.
17:26Generally, they'd look at the whole thing, but I guess somebody didn't.
17:30They posted and we took it down and we did it.
17:33I am, by the way, the least racist president you've had in a long time.
17:38Dude, you are barely the least racist president on that plane.
17:44But according to Trump biographer Michael Wolfe,
17:47something else may be to blame for Trump's outburst.
17:50I spoke to people in the White House about this
17:54and their view was, whoa, you know, actually, let me quote,
18:00off his meds.
18:01It was off his meds!
18:03Yeah, which implies the president is taking medication
18:05to not be racist.
18:08Thinking of sharing a racist clip with the entire world?
18:12Try Clannadol.
18:14Take two with water or just inject it directly into your penis.
18:19And that was...
18:22What the f*** is it this time?
18:25Let's roll through to Tuesday
18:26and a new first for the Australian property market.
18:29Well, a million dollars may not get you a house
18:31or even a decent apartment in Sydney,
18:33but you could score a driveway.
18:35This 110 square metre, four metre wide stretch in Newtown
18:40has just sold for $1.25 million at auction.
18:44Finally, the freedom of living out of your car
18:46with the security of a mortgage.
18:50On the topic of crime real estate,
18:52joining us tonight are a dream team for design lovers,
18:54the patron saint of ambitious builds and host of Grand Designs
18:58and a radio, TV and comedy veteran turned design advocate.
19:02They've been friends for over a decade
19:03and have joined forces on their new podcast,
19:05Tim and Kev's Big Design Adventure.
19:08Please welcome Kevin MacLeod and Tim Ross!
19:13Oh, welcome.
19:15So glad to have you here.
19:17Lovely to have you.
19:18Now, let's talk about the podcast.
19:21Yes, please.
19:22Architecture feels like the boldest possible subject
19:25to choose for a strictly audio medium.
19:28Is that part of the fun?
19:29Like, people just have to listen to it and try and remember it
19:32and then go out and look at it.
19:33Yeah, because we live in this world
19:35which is so dominated by imagery now, you know,
19:37and we want to just tell the stories
19:39that are behind that imagery
19:41and also kind of just distract people away
19:43from the visual interference that we're subject to all the time.
19:47What do you call it the tyranny of pictures?
19:48The tyranny of...or rather...
19:50It's a Kevinism, but...
19:52You know, some people, when they get middle-aged,
19:53you know, they take up cycling
19:54and I've taken up Kevinism-ing.
19:58I often think one of the challenges...
20:00I've taken up being Tim's shadow.
20:04I'm not sure what to do with that.
20:07Only sartorially.
20:08Oh, yeah, absolutely.
20:09Yeah, it's hard to tell which part
20:12of which communist dictatorship you come from,
20:14but it's lovely.
20:16You're honest workers and I appreciate it.
20:17Now, Kevin, you have seen a lot of houses over the years.
20:20What is it that Australia does better than anyone else?
20:24Better than anyone else.
20:24And what do we do worse than everyone else?
20:25Oh, you can't ask me that question
20:26because I'm a guest in your country
20:28and I'm hoping to get an Australian passport.
20:29So it would be rude for you not to answer.
20:31Well, I'd want to swap this, if I can, for a...
20:33You know, I love a naughty passport.
20:35I get the vibe that Tim will marry you.
20:40We get a lot of emails
20:41and the most common email is something like,
20:44oh, you know, hi guys,
20:45I live in a modernist house in Tasmania
20:47and I know you're on tour.
20:48Like, I've got a spare room.
20:50If you guys want to, you know, on tour,
20:52if you guys want to stay,
20:52that'd be really great.
20:53And it'd be okay, Rosso,
20:55if Kevin just came on his own.
21:00So, Tim, we know a lot about Kevin from his years.
21:03He's famous all around the world.
21:04What do we not know about Kevin?
21:05He carries a steamer with him, a clothes steamer.
21:09He travels with a clothes steamer.
21:12A clothes steamer.
21:12And he's been steaming my clothes on tour.
21:15I come back and he's, like, steaming my jacket.
21:18It's extraordinary.
21:19Are you sure you're not getting married?
21:24All right, so, Kevin, what has surprised you about Tim?
21:27I've been Tim's guide in the UK and around Europe a little bit,
21:30although it turns out he knows more
21:31about European architecture than I do.
21:34And then when we come here,
21:36he just rubs it in a bit more
21:38because he knows far more about Australian architecture than I do.
21:40But, yeah, we play reverse tour guides.
21:42It's fantastic.
21:42Are you sure you're not getting married?
21:45One last question.
21:47You wrote a fantastic book called What a Ripper,
21:49which is all about Aussie inventions
21:50from, like, the 60s to the 90s.
21:52Do you have a favourite?
21:53The Dolphin Torch.
21:55Dolphin Torch?
21:56Yeah, yeah.
21:56I used one recently and got a kick out of it.
21:58If you're of a certain age,
22:00you know exactly what it feels like in your hand.
22:02You click on it,
22:03you know what it sounds like when it's rolling around
22:05in the back of the car,
22:05or you're at the caravan park
22:07and you're off the way to have a shower to get tinnier,
22:09that's what you carry.
22:11There are so many people around our age
22:13going to their cupboard right now
22:14to find it to rummage around in the back
22:16just to feel that click.
22:18Yeah, and that tactility of Australian design
22:20and the way it takes us back
22:21is really important to us.
22:23They're our stories,
22:24and we should be celebrating them.
22:25You can catch these two live across the country
22:28or from the comfort of your own walls
22:30on Big Design Adventure.
22:32Would you please thank Tim Ross and Kevin MacLeod?
22:39Which brings us to Wednesday, February the 11th,
22:43and a lot has happened on this day in history.
22:46In 1990, Nelson Mandela walked free from prison.
22:49In 1861, Burke and Wills turned back from the coast,
22:52a decision that would lead inevitably
22:53to their death in the desert.
22:55And in 1969, Jennifer Aniston was born,
22:59setting off a chain of events that would lead inevitably
23:01to the death of Matthew Perry.
23:06But that wasn't the only momentous event
23:09to happen on February 11.
23:11Let's find out more with the historically.
23:19It's February 11th, 1975.
23:22The sun is shining, the waves are crashing,
23:24and the ABC has sent its best and brightest reporting talent
23:27to cover an emerging story.
23:28Here's our rugged, leathery reporter
23:30and walking melanoma, David Hill.
23:32Australia shares with South Africa the rather dubious honour
23:35of being the only two countries in the world
23:37to bar women from the surf life-saving movement.
23:40It's always been a man's habitat.
23:41The surf club itself is an area where a man can come down,
23:45enjoy himself on the weekend, relax,
23:47enjoy a bit of surf competition and have a beer and relax,
23:50free from the female worries.
23:52Spot on.
23:52If a bloke wants to have a few neck oils and disappear at sea
23:55without being nagged by some nosy broad,
23:57it's his God-given right.
23:59Have you set out to get drunk today?
24:01Yeah.
24:01And if it's good enough for the late, great Prime Minister Holt,
24:04it's good enough for the true blue, fair-dinkum-dye man.
24:07Besides, there's plenty for the fairer sex to occupy themselves with
24:10that doesn't get in the way of the menfolk.
24:12Up until now, the surf life-saving movement's
24:14had a very definite place for women.
24:16Making sandwiches in the clubhouse,
24:18serving on the ladies' auxiliary,
24:20or decorating a surf carnival.
24:22Well, they could be used on the radios, on lines,
24:26perhaps in resuscitation.
24:27No thanks.
24:28A man should only be resuscitated by another man,
24:31lest he be accused of having a little fruit in his salad.
24:34The thought of being rescued by a woman could be appealing,
24:37especially if they give mouth-to-mouth.
24:38But let's hear from one foxy female at the centre
24:40of this nautical battle of the sexes.
24:42Meet Ruth Customs, a real-life human woman
24:45who wishes to become a bronze medallion lifesaver.
24:47I think, really, if we are to serve the community,
24:52then those people who are best able to do it should be allowed to.
24:55Wouldn't mind being rescued by that bit of skirt.
24:57But if she's saving lives,
24:59who's going to make me a deviled egg sandwich?
25:02Luckily for this plucky broad,
25:04some surf-side patriarchs are open to change.
25:06It should be open to everybody.
25:08It cannot be done properly just by the men alone.
25:10That's enough of that pinko common nonsense.
25:13Women finally broke through the sandy ceiling
25:15and joined the surf lifesavers in 1980.
25:17Who knows how many lives our surfing sheilas have saved since.
25:21Or, sadly, how many sandwiches have gone unmade.
25:24David, the ABC reporter, is still looking for his shirt to this day.
25:28And that's the Historically.
25:30Back to you, Mr Pickering.
25:34Before we go, each week my mum likes to cut out those weird,
25:38little quirky stories from the paper
25:39and she pops them in the mail for me.
25:41Let's see what she sent this week.
25:42It's stories my mum sent me!
25:50OK, let's see what we have got today.
25:53OK.
25:55An elderly lottery winner in the UK
25:57has used their prize money
25:59to build a lucrative drug empire
26:02out of his rural English cottage.
26:05A sad day for his family,
26:06but a thrilling conclusion to the final season of Vera.
26:14A nature centre in Kentucky,
26:16people can make a small donation
26:18to name a cockroach after their ex,
26:21which will then be fed to a turtle.
26:24One mystery donor made a record donation
26:26paying for a million cockroaches
26:28to be named Keith Urban.
26:30Isn't that nice?
26:32I guess we'll never know.
26:36$400,000 worth of lobsters
26:39has been stolen in Massachusetts.
26:41Police are now on the hunt for anyone
26:44transporting roughly seven lobsters.
26:49Notoriously expensive item.
26:53A man has swum 47 kilometres around Manhattan
26:56wearing handcuffs.
26:58In doing so, he set a personal best
27:00and absolutely smashed my record
27:02in the 500 metre ball gag butterfly.
27:07I just do it for the love of the game.
27:10And an American beer company has launched a beer
27:14with a surprising new ingredient, bear feces.
27:19CUB have launched a company-wide investigation
27:21to find out how someone stole the recipe for fosters.
27:26And that story's my mum sent me.
27:33And that is all for tonight.
27:34Would you please thank Kevin MacLeod,
27:36Tim Ross and Nicolette Minster.
27:39And if you would like to be in our studio audience,
27:42just scan the code on your screen right now.
27:44And don't forget to tune in to my radio show TGIF
27:47Friday Afternoons on ABC Radio and Radio National
27:49or just download it on the ABC Listen app.
27:52We'll be back next week with He Huang and Rhys Nicholson.
27:55But until then, on behalf of the team,
27:57thanks for watching, I'm Charlie Pickering.
27:58Goodnight.
