01:14coverage of it and the news in Australia broke on the morning show I have some beautiful duck
01:20breast here Donald Trump evacuated from White House but don't let that interrupt the cooking
01:26segment don't let it interrupt the duck breast yes they were saying duck for a very different reason
01:32look in times of chaos we turn to the ABC for the facts journalists hiding under dinner tables we
01:38know that they had just been served a spring pea and burrata salad amazing it is terrifying to think
01:47that Donald Trump came this close to eating a salad it is terrifying that is crazy well for the guests
01:53in
01:53the room there was naturally panic so I wasn't quite sure what they were pointing at yeah I was deep
01:58into my burrata salad let's forget the burrata salad they were just excited because under Joe Biden
02:04was mostly puree based exactly it's great we saw chaotic scenes at the dinner snipers secret service
02:11officers and in the bottom left hand corner you can see someone just really enjoying the salad
02:20if you see the price of burrata you've got to go to town while you can there was chaos in

02:33no one left behind she was caught red-handed white-handed and ros茅-handed as well thankfully
02:40the president was unharmed and we heard from Donald Trump after the incident I also saw a lot of very
02:47strong physically strong really attractive law enforcement people come through those doors
02:55these guys were hot some of all those babes in the villa when they stood in front of me to
03:01shield me
03:02I saw dead ass whose voice is that by the way it's been a big week at the White House
03:11it's been a huge
03:12week one of the biggest weeks in terms of weeks it has been a big week at the White House
03:17King Charles
03:18and Queen Camilla have arrived at the White House for the start of their four-day state visit to the

03:58new home for the presidential bees a beehive in the shape of a White House this is amazing can we
04:05that again the Trump beehive they make Manuka honey and Ivanka honey which is interesting
04:11now for those viewers wondering if the honey in the hive is a light clover and basewood flavor with
04:18a subtle hint of citrus apparently the honey inside a light clover and basewood flavor with a subtle hint
04:24of citrus in case you're wondering in case you're wondering let's move on now and it has been a
04:30busy week for the president not just the dinner but important meetings as well Donald Trump appeared
04:35to have another urgent meeting yesterday with the back of his eyelids that's important that's
04:42important this is amazing he fell asleep during the Oval Office briefing he wasn't the only one
04:46some are growing weary of waiting for peace never too early to learn to duck are you
04:54we might need to fact check that okay a couple of our audience having an urgent meeting with the
04:58back of their eyelids let's head back home and the government here are under pressure to start
05:03taxing gas exports that's been the big story during the week but they're being lobbied by Japan
05:07not to Japan an early investor and a big buyer of Australian gas has been quietly lobbying the
05:14government against a new tax Prime Minister Sanayi Takaichi to make a pre-budget dash to Australia
05:23would you call that quietly lobbying no she's sending mixed symbols
05:32can we see her again that is amazing that is the Prime Minister of Japan on the drum kit she's
05:37actually a drummer for the iconic Japanese rock band Guns and Cherry Blossoms
05:42let's press on and of course Saturday marked Anzac Day of course a day to remember and to give thanks
05:48to all those Australians and New Zealanders who have served their nations exactly we saw some
05:52incredible scenes across Australia and the media had full coverage people from all walks of life
05:57people with medals young people teenagers in their in their shorts and in their jeans it's important
06:05to talk about their shorts and their jeans and their jeans it was great to see so many people get
06:10up so
06:10early for the denim service and pay their respects beautiful we saw some moving scenes across Australia
06:20beautiful scenes nice to have the Japanese back on board
06:31let's stick with Anzac Day and the commemorations speaking of music Sunrise had a very touching musical tribute
06:37I stood upon the rocky shores I watched the tall ships come
06:48this is amazing I didn't know that you were in the ten tenners
06:52here you are right smack in the middle see if you can spot me
06:59he's behind that quite short hair
07:03that was fantastic good to see Breakfast TV get into the spirit
07:06yeah yeah it was a big morning for Breakfast TV the Today Show were live on the beach
07:10there is some inclement weather around but as said nothing compared to
07:14what our servicemen and women have gone through
07:18you're saying they weren't dealing with a light drizzle
07:20exactly
07:22no let's let's check back in
07:24welcome back to this very special edition of
07:26they were under enemy fire from weekend sunrise
07:30of course it was three years to the day where they defeated studio 10
07:38look there was some sad news at these dawn services
07:41some were marred by booing during the welcome to country ceremonies
07:44Skynia spoke to Pastor Ray Minican who spoke so well on the issue
07:48exactly he spoke so well but he did have a little bit of trouble with his zoom
07:51despicable
07:53Ray given that this happened in Melbourne and Sydney and Perth I understand
07:57on the same morning in the same way
07:59does it seem to you like an organised campaign
08:06it's awkward if you're doing an interview and you're trying to swipe left
08:09to the person you're talking to
08:11I think Ray was just trying to end the call
08:13we're there just to do one particular thing for our
08:20it looks like we've lost Ray Minican there
08:24I can see him pressing those buttons on his computer
08:27he may well have pressed the wrong one we don't know
08:30I think he pressed the right one
08:32yes
08:33he very rarely seen goodbye to country ceremony
08:38we owe so much to our soldiers
08:41many of whom went on to achieve so much back home

22:24I've got to celebrate
22:25I need to eat something because I've had some champagne
22:26so it was like special occasion
22:27so I went and found some food
22:28and I believe you've got a
22:31this is it
22:32this is literally what I ate
22:34it is a curried egg and cress sandwich
22:36wow
22:37yeah that's what I chose
22:38it's a bit sad
22:39it's kind of like if you got your death row meal from 7-eleven
22:42well let's talk about the show
22:44because I went to go see it in the comedy festival
22:46it was hilarious
22:48it's called Gift Horse
22:49and you're touring it around Australia
22:51for those who haven't seen the show
22:52can you give us a summary
22:54yes so basically if you know me
22:55you know I don't do shows every year
22:57I only do a show when I've got something important going on in my life
22:59something that I feel like I need to work through with people
23:01something I've got to say to the world
23:03like my last show was about having a baby
23:04okay
23:05huge change in my life
23:05and I wasn't doing a show this year
23:07and then last year
23:08on my 42nd birthday
23:10my boyfriend gave me an inflatable kayak
23:14and that's the show
23:16that's the show
23:17100% that's what the whole show is about
23:18the whole show is basically a one long breakfast radio segment
23:22I'm sorry it is
23:23that's why it's also so shocking to have won with this show
23:26that is possibly the most trivial
23:27but it's actually not when you get into about gift giving
23:30but that's truly what it is
23:31he gave me an inflatable kayak
23:33and it was supposed to be one joke
23:35and then it blew up
23:35not unlike an inflatable kayak
23:37and it became a national and potentially a global tour
23:40and now something that's won this
23:41so it's crazy
23:42this is the kayak
23:45this is the morning
23:45look at the face of a woman trying to pretend she doesn't hate that kayak
23:49because I know you go
23:52why is there a chicken in that
23:53that's my daughter
23:54my partner is Pluckaduck
23:59because kayaks
24:00this is the thing
24:00some people love kayaks
24:01so people are like what do you mean
24:02let me explain to you
24:04on the morning of my 42nd birthday
24:05this morning
24:06and I walked out and found this
24:07inflatable kayak
24:08and I said
24:09it's a kayak
24:11was the first time I've ever said the word kayak
24:16so that's what's part of it
24:18so your partner bought this gift for you
24:21and now you're doing a show about it
24:23how does he feel
24:25well his name is Dara
24:26I'll tell you this
24:26so I've been working on the show for a year and a half
24:28since my birthday in February
24:29and until very recently he hadn't seen any of it
24:32he didn't want to see it
24:33I tried to tell him bits
24:33and I talk a lot about him in the show
24:35and he's like no no I want to wait until it's finished
24:36okay
24:37hadn't seen it until two weeks ago in Melbourne
24:39he saw it for the first time in the comedy theatre
24:41in the Melbourne International Comedy Festival
24:43and I really miss him
24:47so
24:51but I got the award
24:52so what are you going to do
24:53he like
24:54thank goodness he liked it
24:56he liked it a lot
24:56and also I'm aware how lucky I am
24:58like this is a ridiculous job to do
24:59when you have partners
25:00like I don't know how your partner feels
25:01but like normal people
25:02if you give your partner a ship gift
25:04maybe you're in the family WhatsApp
25:05I'm talking shit about him
25:07up and down the country
25:08on TV
25:10thousands of people
25:11have laughed at the bad choice he made
25:13oh man
25:14he's fine
25:15he's fine
25:15he seems to like it
25:17has he given you a gift since?
25:18because there is now a lot of pressure on his next gift
25:20well the thing is
25:22because
25:23this became
25:24the best show I've ever done
25:25and won me this award
25:27I'm pretty sure
25:28I'm going to be getting inflatable kayaks every year
25:31for the rest of my damn life
25:34which is fair
25:35maybe I'll get a canoe in there
25:37no no no
25:37it's going to be very hard for it to be a surprise when you're in bed and you're going to
25:40hear
25:42but to be honest because I have had another birthday so 43 so for this year he did very well
25:47and he got me a very tasteful gift from Sexy Boutique which I love
25:51I love
25:52beautiful
25:53that's lovely
25:54we are so happy that you won the award and you shared this amazing image on your socials so that's
25:58the award on the right and on the left
26:00this is an award that I won 20 years ago my fifth ever gig because this is my submission for
26:06most humble comedian of the year thank you
26:09but it was my fifth ever gig I won the raw recruit
26:11raw is the open mic competition and this I was the first and last person to win this award they
26:15never did it again
26:17I know it was for the best first time entrance so it was my fifth time on stage I was
26:22in the town hall and I won that and then 20 years later that's that's this one
26:25wow
26:27that's amazing
26:31so you are celebrating 20 years in comedy it is amazingly it is amazing and excitingly
26:37we have found the footage

26:46look at that baby
26:47terrified look at me terrified
26:49I love that you're paying respect to the Anzacs on your jeans
26:54that is so mean imagine your first day at work someone filming it and putting it on TV 20 years
27:00later anyway so that was my fifth time on stage absolutely terrified and I think I could say that I
27:04can't remember but I think I'd say my best joke was probably my haircut
27:07um
27:09well I think I think your second best joke was this one
27:11oh no
27:11I think we should just be able to do things that we enjoy in life you know simple things like
27:15I enjoy when things are ironic sometimes I'll suffocate a sheep with a woolen jumper and say you did this
27:23laughter
27:24that's what we were doing
27:25that's what we were doing
27:26if someone goes I'm going to play your material from 20 years ago
27:30yes that still holds up
27:31you that's a double joke as well you did this because also EWE that's quite smart
27:36I didn't even know that I did that
27:38Have you only just figured that out now?
27:40Celia is currently touring her show
27:42Gifthorse around the country.
27:44Head to comedy.com.au for tickets.
27:46Ladies and gentlemen, would you please thank the wonderful
27:47Celia Foucault!
28:02Welcome back to The Feet, please.
28:03It's time for the show.
28:04Please, would you please welcome our very own
28:06cultural correspondent, Mel Chesina!
28:10Hello, Mel.
28:11Lovely to see you.
28:12Speaking of showbiz, apparently there's a very exciting
28:15announcement today.
28:16Apparently, Big Brother's coming back!
28:23Oh my gosh, yes!
28:24Big Brother 2, 2 Big 2 Brother.
28:27Yes!
28:28Big Brother Tokyo Drift.
28:29Yes!
28:30We're working on the title.
28:31This is exciting, so fans want to know,
28:33when will it be?
28:34Good question.
28:38When do applications open?
28:43Is it back at Dreamworld?
28:45These are all really good questions.
28:47I would love to give you an answer for Tim.
28:49Are you involved in the production at all?
28:52Well, that's my next question.
28:53Will you be returning as host?
28:56I think so.
28:58I mean, I...
28:58Yes!
28:59Yes!
29:00I know!
29:01I can't wait for the headline!
29:03I think so, says presumptuous Mel Chesina.
29:07Well, we asked because, and speaking of headlines,
29:09we saw this over the summer in New Idea.
29:12According to sources, Mel has laid down a firm set of demands
29:16before she agrees to return.
29:18Yes!
29:19Yes!
29:19Look how angry I was in that.
29:21You were so angry!
29:22What were some of the demands?
29:24Uh, just, you know, like, an inflatable kayak.
29:28I said something like,
29:29I want my tea like my men.
29:30Strong and bald.
29:33She did not say strong and bald.
29:35She did!
29:36Strong and bald.
29:38Oh!
29:44Well, I like mine bald.
29:47I was wondering how you had a bald cup of tea.
29:51And how do you think you have a bald cup of tea?
29:54I don't know.
29:55I was going to ask you guys the same question.
29:56Yeah, I mean, like,
29:57because I don't want hair in my tea.
29:59Yes.
30:02Well, that's answered a lot.
30:06Let's move on.
30:06There's lots happening in the world of show business.
30:08Yes, there is.
30:08All right, so Channel 7 have a brand new renovation show.
30:12My Reno rules.
30:13And who better to host a renovation show
30:16than everyone's favourite vet, Dr Chris Brown.
30:20Of course.
30:20Well, it's good in case that show needs to be put down.
30:22He'll be right on the show.
30:26The judges on these Reno shows,
30:28they always show me new ways of using design jargon
30:32in my everyday life.
30:33I loved it.
30:36No, seriously, this bathroom cranked my tractor.
30:44I think that's a product you can get from Sexy Boutique.
30:48Tractor cranker.
30:52Over to 10 for MasterChef Australia.
30:56So the show is in its 18th season
30:58and has stepped up with technology
31:00and gotten a little meta.
31:08The frames start to play and it's Sophia's first.
31:14It's like a window into her home, which is really sweet.
31:21I think we're going to cut it there.
31:23I think we're about to see her tractor get cranked.
31:28And also, that's not her husband.
31:30Wow.
31:32It's like, I don't think you're...
31:33You're only in your, like, she's only done a couple of seasons.
31:36It's better only to be working from home.
31:39Come on.
31:40Interesting.
31:40She likes her man like she likes her teeth.
31:43Tall and hairy.
31:53Now, what I love about the show
31:55is the banter between the judges and the contestants.
32:00Alisha.
32:01Hi.
32:02Are we getting some Latina flavours?
32:03You're actually not.
32:05Oh, my God.
32:07That's a no.
32:08That's a no.
32:10So the floor continues on 9,
32:12a game show where contestants verse each other
32:15in expert categories and...
32:16Expert.
32:19And cakes and eggs.
32:22Contestant Kelsey's expert topic is weddings
32:25and she reveals her big advantage.
32:29I think Shane thinks I'm going to be an easy target.
32:33You got this.
32:33You got this.
32:35But I've been married three times.
32:39Four-time lucky.
32:40Wow.
32:41She likes her men like she likes her teeth.
32:45In a multi-pack.
32:47Oh, stop.
32:51Stop.
32:53All right, let me get out my showbiz gavel
32:56because I have some legal drama.
32:59Ooh.
33:00Friday was a federal court case management hearing
33:03for Kyle and Jackie O.
33:04And whilst Jackie O wasn't present,
33:07Kyle Sanderlands did attend
33:08and he had one message for his former employer, ARN.
33:12Suggesting he may drop his $85 million lawsuit
33:16against the Australian radio network
33:18if they throw him the mic back.
33:21Put me back on the radio
33:22and let's get the share price back up.
33:23And have you spoken?
33:24The ARN share price is actually up
33:27since Sanderlands was signed up.
33:30This is amazing.
33:30This is going to be the trial of the year.
33:32They're scheduled for later in October, I think.
33:34Yeah.
33:35They're going to do both trials either together
33:36or separately, which are the two options.
33:41Not really providing as much information
33:43as I thought I was.
33:45They're pushing for it to be together.
33:46Yes.
33:47Like barbecue and pizza shapes coming together as well.
33:49Yes.
33:50But this is a big legal talking point, isn't it?
33:52It is, it is.
33:53All the legalities and these news headlines
33:55of this Kyle and Jackie O saga,
33:56it's been really consuming.
33:58So I've decided to switch off
34:00and turn to some literature instead.
34:03Yeah.
34:03So for the first time this year,
34:05it's time for...
34:07Storytime with Mel!
34:14Now Mel has walked off.
34:16Yeah.
34:17I guess we didn't fit her demands
34:19that she wanted for the season.
34:21She wanted that kayak.
34:22She wanted lots of things.
34:23Mel, where are you?
34:25Where are you going?
34:26I'm just here at the Channel 10 library.
34:29Oh!
34:30Look, with my tea that is strong and bold.
34:36A lot of books around you.
34:38There is, yeah.
34:39So I thought we should read
34:40some of my favourite passages
34:42from an Aussie icon,
34:44a book that I've really been
34:45like digging my teeth into.
34:47Jackie O.
34:50The whole truth.
34:52Wow.
34:52No reason.
34:53Just like from one successful
34:55radio broadcaster to another.
34:58So if everyone wants to gather around
35:00and grab their copy,
35:01we'll open it together to page 62.
35:04Now this was published last year
35:06before all the legal drama.
35:07So this is one of my favourite passages.
35:09Please.
35:09She spoke about the first time
35:11that she met Kyle.
35:12Little did I know,
35:14I had just been introduced
35:15to the man who would forever
35:16change my life
35:17and become one of my most
35:18trusted friends.
35:19His sheer brilliance
35:21and our divine chemistry together
35:23were about to make history.
35:25By one day becoming
35:26Australia's most successful radio show,
35:28I would spend the next 24 years
35:30and counting of my life
35:32with this wonderful man.
35:33I think you can stop counting there.
35:38This is amazing.
35:39What amazing insights
35:40from the gospel according to Jackie.
35:43Oh, it's so what?
35:44The Jackie O Testament.
35:46So if we go to 282,
35:49she speaks about,
35:51well, she thanks her former employer,
35:53ARN.
35:54To my bosses at ARN,
35:56thank you for allowing us
35:57to make history together,
35:59for your constant belief in us
36:00and for your continual loyalty
36:02and support.
36:04Yeah, in literature,
36:05we call this situational irony.
36:14Which we can also demonstrate
36:15by the fact that Mel Trescina
36:17is hosting a reading segment.
36:22So,
36:23I really like,
36:24to be fair,
36:25I quite liked the book.
36:26I thought Jackie O was really vulnerable.
36:27She talks about her marriages,
36:29her divorces
36:30and how she's going to do
36:31the expert category
36:32on the floor about weddings.
36:35But the most outrageous story
36:36that she told
36:37was actually this one.
36:38In page 16 of your book,
36:40Kids.
36:40Of course.
36:41Sorry.
36:41Kids.
36:42I was in year two
36:43and desperately wanted
36:44to buy an ice block
36:45from the tuck shop.
36:47I'd often spend lunchtime
36:48inside the church
36:49and then one day
36:50I noticed a bunch of 20 cent coins
36:51in the donation box.
36:52It was all too easy
36:54to take one
36:54and buy myself that ice block.
36:56That is outrageous.
36:5820 cents for an ice block.
37:00Like, that is insane.
37:02The real crime
37:03is inflation.
37:04Yes.
37:05You're damn right.
37:06And that was...
37:08Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.
37:09Are you happy with that couch
37:10in that setting?
37:13Oh, why?
37:14Are you going to change it up?
37:15Don't say that so flirtily.
37:18You're really cranking
37:19my tractor.
37:32Just excuse me
37:33for a moment.
37:38Oh, no.
37:39OK.
37:41Oh, my gosh.
37:44OK.
37:45I think we'll have to leave
37:47that signal there.
37:48Well, hang on.
37:49Hang on.
37:49Hang on.
37:50Let's toss the book
37:51into the fire.
37:54Oh, my God.
37:55That's well, Rick.
37:56And after the day,
37:58I'll give you please
37:59thank Mel Chesina.
38:15Welcome back to the G-State.
38:17It's Arthur's in sport.
38:18We are so excited
38:19to welcome writer
38:19and comedian.
38:20He's a friend of both of ours.
38:21It's Mr. Josh Jacks.
38:25Lovely to see you.
38:26Thank you so much
38:26for coming on.
38:27Great to be here.
38:28Welcome to the show, Josh.
38:29This is actually
38:30not your first time on TV.
38:32No, it was a while ago now.
38:33You probably don't recognise me.
38:34I was the little boy
38:36that fell into
38:36the gorilla enclosure.
38:39Yeah, Harambe.
38:40I'm all grown up.
38:41That's huge.
38:42It's amazing
38:43to see you all grown up.
38:46And not just that either.
38:47You also made the news
38:48for the way you handled
38:49a redundancy meeting.
38:51Yes.
38:52A little while ago
38:53I was made redundant,
38:54fired, whatever, semantics.
38:57But I was living
38:58in New Zealand at the time
38:59and over there
39:00they allow you
39:00to bring in a support person
39:01to the meeting.
39:02So they gave me, yeah,
39:03a little bit of a heads up
39:04and I thought
39:05I might be getting fired.
39:07So I thought
39:07who better to cheer me up
39:08than a professional?
39:10Yeah.
39:11Well, let's hear
39:12who you chose.
39:13New Zealand man
39:14got the last laugh
39:15while being fired
39:16thanks to his
39:16emotional support clown.
39:18Josh Thompson
39:19hired Joe the clown.
39:21for emotional support
39:23when he was being let go.
39:24Incredible.
39:27So good.
39:28Yeah.
39:29So good.
39:30You brought Joe the clown
39:31to your redundancy meeting
39:33for real.
39:34Yeah, yeah.
39:34It was 200 bucks.
39:36Bargain.
39:37Um, I will say
39:38first two minutes
39:39of the meeting
39:40pretty funny.
39:41It is like a half an hour
39:42long meeting.
39:43And after that
39:44it's kind of just a man
39:46that none of us know
39:46sitting there
39:47making balloon animals
39:49while we're all
39:50trying to talk.
39:51Yeah, so you're getting fired.
39:52Meanwhile,
39:52Joe the clown is...
39:53Oh, he's doing like
39:54crying,
39:55mime crying.
39:58You don't realise
39:59how squeaky balloon
40:00animals are
40:00until you're
40:01in a pretty quiet room.
40:04This story was so huge
40:05in New Zealand.
40:07In fact,
40:07the New Zealand Herald
40:08did a write-up
40:09at the end of the year
40:09of the biggest heroes
40:11of the year.
40:13And there you are there.
40:14And there you are
40:15on the front page.
40:16Our heroes.
40:17I don't use the term
40:18hero lightly.
40:20Luckily,
40:21New Zealand Herald does.
40:22Who else is on that front cover?
40:23Yeah, nine other like
40:24actual people
40:25who did good things.
40:26There's like people
40:27who raise money for charity
40:28like cancer researchers
40:30and stuff.
40:31And there's just me
40:32who is like pretty bad
40:32at my job.
40:36It's so great
40:37to have you on the show,
40:38You are a hero.
40:39You're not here
40:40to talk clowns.
40:40Yeah, you're a huge
40:41sport fan.
40:42You're going to take us
40:42to sport.
40:43Yeah, it's been a huge
40:44week in sport.
40:45But no story bigger
40:46than Kenyan runner
40:47Sebastian Sarway
40:48who smashed the world record
40:50running a sub
40:51two-hour London marathon.
40:53Betting the previous record
40:55by over a minute,
40:56many are putting the time
40:56down to the shoesy war.
40:57This is a photo of them.
40:59Wow.
40:59Yeah, they're the new
41:00Adidas Pro Evos 3.
41:02They weigh just under
41:03100 grams each.
41:05Oh, that's my goal weight.
41:06Oh, that's me.
41:09But even after the run,
41:10I would say Sarway's
41:11biggest achievement
41:12was getting through
41:13this interview
41:13with the BBC Sport.
41:15Would you go sit down
41:16now and have some
41:17fish and chips
41:18and a beer?
41:21No.
41:22No.
41:24He broke the record
41:25for the world's fastest
41:26interview.
41:27There we go.
41:27Well done.
41:28But of course
41:29it wasn't all about
41:30Sarway.
41:31Daddy Pig,
41:32you've been one of the
41:32stories of the London
41:33marathon.
41:34Yes, reports were
41:35that Daddy Pig
41:37ran wee-wee-wee
41:37all the way home.
41:38That's amazing.
41:40This was a huge story,
41:41this London marathon
41:42and this record-breaking run.
41:44Am I right in saying
41:45you've also run a marathon
41:46before, Josh?
41:46I have,
41:47thanks for bringing it up.
41:48One time.
41:49Heroes!
41:50Marathon heroes!
41:52Yeah, a little bit slower
41:55than the two-hour mark.
41:57But it must have been
41:57worth it though
41:58because at the end
41:58when you do a marathon
41:59you get that big photo
42:00crossing the finish line.
42:01Yeah, you get the photo.
42:03I was looking forward to it,
42:04you know,
42:04it's the only thing
42:05you really have to show
42:06that you did do the marathon.
42:08So I finished it,
42:09had a few choccy milks
42:10and then they sent me
42:11my big finishing photo.
42:12I think we got it here.
42:13Right.
42:14Amazing photo.
42:15Yeah, that is
42:15mostly another man.
42:18Are you in this photo?
42:20Technically I am in there
42:21if you look close.
42:24That's the photo
42:24they sent you of
42:25you did it.
42:26Yeah, yeah.
42:27It's technically,
42:28yeah, I'm in there
42:29but I feel weird
42:29about having it in my house.
42:33But it wasn't just
42:34the London marathon
42:35that ran over the weekend.
42:37Robots have outrun people
42:38at this year's
42:39Beijing Half Marathon.
42:41The Beijing Half Marathon.
42:42It was just incredible
42:44to see a white athlete
42:45move that far away.
42:46That is great.
42:47That is great.
42:48It is incredible.
42:50But we've got to move
42:51on to the soccer.
42:52The A-League regular season
42:53has concluded
42:54with Newcastle Jets
42:55taking out Men's League
42:57and the Melbourne City
42:58taking out the Women's League.
42:59But for more on that
43:00we cross live to Marty Sheargold.
43:02Sorry, no, no, no.
43:03Oh, no, sorry.
43:04No, no, no.
43:04I'm not going to do that.
43:06Well, the Newcastle Jets
43:08did secure the premiership
43:09after drawing 2-2
43:10with Melbourne Victory
43:11in a game that saw
43:12attendance skyrocket
43:13though not in the way
43:14you'd expect.
43:16Picked the best defences
43:18in this competition
43:19this season.
43:21Look, a few seagulls
43:23I'm sure to be fine.
43:24They'll fly away.
43:25It won't take away
43:25anything from the game.
43:27This is crazy stuff.
43:29Look at the seagulls.
43:31They say it's good luck
43:32when a bird poos on you.
43:34Surely there's a limit.
43:36To the NRL now
43:37where Broncos player
43:38Katoni Staggs
43:39managed to play
43:40through an injured
43:41plantar fascia.
43:42And if you don't know
43:43what that means
43:43don't worry
43:44we've got Jonathan Thurston
43:45to explain it
43:46in the medium
43:47of facial expression.
43:48Obviously I snapped
43:49my plantar fascia
43:50last week
43:51and, you know,
43:53I had to get through it.
43:56I guess that translates
43:57to bad.
43:58Yeah.
44:00But lastly
44:01I want to talk about this.
44:02I don't know
44:02if you've heard the news
44:03but I did an
44:04Ancestry DNA test
44:05and it's come back
44:06that I'm 1.5% Indian.
44:08Okay.
44:09Wow.
44:091.5%.
44:10Which they say
44:11is enough to get into
44:12the Indian Premier League cricket.
44:13Okay.
44:14Great.
44:14Not enough to do the accent.
44:18I have been watching the IPL.
44:21That is huge.
44:21And if you, like me
44:23are looking to get into it
44:23and get to know the players
44:24I recommend starting here.
44:26Got to be one of the greatest names
44:27in World Cup
44:30Napoleon Einstein.
44:31Napoleon Einstein.
44:33Wow.
44:34He's one of the best.
44:35He's no Genghis Bin Laden
44:36but he's one of the best.
44:40And that's my week in sport.
44:41On that note
44:42we've got to take a break.
44:42Would you please
44:43thank Josh Dan.
44:57Welcome back to the Cheap Feet.
44:59Sorry.
44:59The show's still on.
45:00We were tucking into our burrata.
45:02It's a great odd show.
45:05You know what?
45:09Delicious.
45:11What else is making news?
45:13Retro gaming is having
45:15a bit of a comeback
45:15with more people
45:17picking up the controller
45:18as part of their
45:19digital disconnect.
45:20No better way
45:21to disconnect from digital
45:22than going digital.
45:24This was an interesting story
45:26on Channel 9 News Queensland
45:27and it's inspired
45:29this week's edition of

45:44shown that little hit
45:45of nostalgia can also
45:46benefit your mental health.
