This week, Brent sits down with Leonie Thomas — Gossip Girl Queen — to unpack a packed week of headlines that are equal parts wild, emotional, and very Australian.

They cover everything from a group of Aussie mates smashing a beer-fuelled world record across every state in under 24 hours, to Spice Girls reunion rumours being shut down again, reminding fans that nostalgia does not always equal a comeback.

The conversation also turns serious, looking at a tragic incident from the Deadliest Catch world and the tough questions it raises about reality TV and risk at sea.

From there, they move to music and culture, with The Wailers continuing their Australian tour after Bluesfest cancellation, bringing messages of unity and resilience to live crowds.

And finally, they land back home with the Sydney Royal Easter Show — a long-running tradition that still draws families, food stalls, rides, and showbags, while raising questions about cost and value in 2026.

It’s a wide-ranging chat about celebration, loss, entertainment, and tradition — and how all of it connects to what people are really talking about right now.
