We know their songs, we know their stage names… but do we actually know their REAL names?

Plenty of famous musicians are known by names completely different from the ones they were born with, so Matilda put Natalie and Maddy to the test with a real-name guessing game. From Stefani to Calvin, they had to figure out which famous musician each name belonged to—and some of the answers were definitely not what they expected!

Would you still recognise your favourite artist by their real name? Tune in and play along to see how many you can get right!

Presenters: Matilda Prelec, Natalie Hung, Maddy Halford
Executive Producers: Ella Le Fournour, Sam Kelly

We're live weekdays on SYN from 7:30am 📻

QUIZ | Sorry…What’s Your Name AGAIN?

With spooky season just around the corner and a number of horror movies on the horizon, the Get Cereal team thought it was only right to commemorate the occasion by diving into their own and the internet's weird and wacky irrational fears. From cotton balls to sharks in swimming pools, we're exploring the things that make absolutely no sense but still manage to scare us… and maybe uncovering a few that you can relate to as well. Maddy also puts Natalie and Matilda to the test, in a game of ‘Fear or Fiction’, can the team tell the difference between a real irrational fear and one we've completely made up? Stay tuned to find out and see if you can guess correctly too!

QUIZ | Fear or Fiction?

It’s National Actors Day, and while it’s time to celebrate the people who work in the movie industry… are audiences really showing them the respect they deserve?

For this week’s Tit for Tat Tuesday, the Tuesday crew, M&M, took a look at some of the most annoying things people do at the cinema. From talking and sleeping during a movie to asking about the plot every five minutes, the crew discussed which behaviours they absolutely can’t stand—and, even worse, whether they’ve ever been guilty of doing them themselves…

Tune in to see if you’ve experienced any of these annoying cinema behaviours too!

TIT FOR TAT TUESDAY | Don’t Watch Movies with Me If You DO THIS!

Today, joining the Cereal Box is the dream team Matilda, Natalie and Maddy for another absolutely stacked show! We kick things off, as per usual, with a pop culture recap, and trust us, the internet has certainly been busy over the past fortnight especially with some exciting news for all you bookworms out there. We also take a look at some of the upcoming national days, learning a few new things along the way and, of course, sparking a little bit of controversy. With movie season in full swing, our Tit for Tat debate gets heated as we discuss the annoying movie behaviours that really grind our gears and which ones we might secretly be guilty of ourselves. Award season upon us, so we put our music knowledge to the test by seeing if we can match celebrity stage names to their real names. Needless to say, some of us were definitely humbled. Finally, with spooky season just around the corner, we dive into the weird and wacky world of irrational fears, discussing the silly things that give us the heebie-jeebies. Of course, there's always plenty more said on air, so tune in to hear all the chaos and debates for yourself!
