Ric Salizzo does seem to have done it all in the world of media and professional sports. He played rugby in Italy, was the All Blacks first ever media liaison, and until very recently was CEO of New York's professional rugby team.

He’s also been a journalist, TV presenter, and producer, most recognised for his role in producing and presenting the iconic sports chat show SportsCafe.

That’s now back. Well kind of… The aptly named Sportscafe-ish podcast features some of the original cast, including Marc Ellis, Leigh Hart, Lana Cocroft and of course Ric.

Ric Salizzo joined Simon Barnett and James Daniels for Six and a Song.

Six and a Song with Ric Salizzo

Christian Cullen, nicknamed the Paikakariki Express, was considered to be one of the most potent running fullbacks rugby has ever seen. With 46 tries scored in 58 Tests, he is the 9th highest try-scorer in international rugby.

He was also a star of the NZ Sevens Team and won a Gold Medal at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpar.

He’s now taken on the challenge of Celebrity Treasure Island, competing against 15 other well known kiwis to secure 100-thousand dollars for his chosen charity Brain Tumour Support.

It’s on Mon to Wed 7.30pm on TVNZ 2 and TVNZ+.

Ever snooped through your partner’s phone?

New challenger in the telco market Kiwi Mobile has been surveying New Zealanders on their phone habits.

Almost two-thirds of Kiwis allow their partners to use their phones, with the 18-to 34-year-old group the most trusting revealing that eighty per-cent will hand over their phone, according to the research. However, that same age group are also the most likely to go through their partner’s phone, with nearly one-third, admitting to snooping on their partner’s phone.

Overall, one-fifth of Kiwis surveyed admitted to snooping on their partner’s phone, a further five percent wouldn’t say. 

It appears women are the most likely to let curiosity get the better of them (or are more honest about admitting it!). Only 14% of men admitted to the questionable behaviour, while a further 6% wouldn’t say.

Listen as Simon Barnett and James Daniels discuss the issue.
