The Al-Maco is back at Macas. Try the new range today. Here we go. Welcome to the Jess and Rowan podcast. Yo, thank you for joining us again. Rowan just gave me one of the great pieces of life advice. You've got to stop trying. No, because we just did this.

You'll hear it. But if you listen to the day on the Newcastle radio station, here 106.9, Jess, but this whole spiel on. I did this whole setup. Oh, I got to call my friend, Silo Green. and I need a dollar, dollar. And we were like, that's aloe black. I went for 90 seconds and Shai guy came in with his shotgun and went,

boom, that's aloe black. I apologize. And then she argued with him and said, no, it's not. That's one of my worst traits. Arguing? Well, more so, I believe I am correct. No way. But I think I'm getting better at apologising.

Sorry, Shagher. Can we talk about your table? Can we talk about your table? Is that something we're not going to talk about? Oh. I mean, if you want to. No, no, no, we're not wasted in the pod. We'll do it on air. We'll do it on air.

No, I know. Only sure. Well, do you, we don't feel any pressure. Babbs gave us a tidbit, and we would love to explore it, but only if she's comfortable. Only if she's comfortable. Well, it doesn't matter. Can we do it on air? We'll do it on air.

Because it's unbelievable. It is a bit crazy. It's crazy. We can't hide it in the pod. It deserves. Babbs blogs. Broadcast. For about, we got in.

Yeah, next week's Babbs' blog. We'll talk about it. Okay. Today's Babs's blog. Phenomenal. I love getting this girl in. studio. You know, Jayce forced her to do it, our boss, because he was like, oh, no, you are a conundrum wrapped in a riddle with a peppering of enigma. You do have some shit in your eyes.

You can just tell. Really? Yeah, it's good. So Babs for like two minutes used to contribute to the content email every night. Shy Guy sends an email. Babs used to reply. I got this little nugget. And then magically just stopped doing it. You don't reply. I haven't seen you reply to the. Yeah, she did it for like two days. And then stopped. We went, whoa, those were great. Two. day's suggestions, why did you stop? I don't know. I just did.

You know why? Yeah, 100%. I get it, man. She went through her job description. I went... How are you? 24. When I was in radio, I was getting paid all when I was 24. Nothing's changed. Same shit, different days. Okay.

Same shit, different era. Different decade. Okay. Not my circus, not my monkeys. No. It was. It used to be. Well, Babs is one of your monkeys.

You should look after her. And that's what we're going to do in Babbs' blog next week. Now, you're getting a lot better with the segways. You started off the week, and when I say week, it's bloody Tuesday. Yesterday your segways was shocking. Did you do a course overnight? No, I was just trying to remember how to channel and do radio things. You did a couple of segues today, and I went, there he is.

You know what? I do feel a bit ill from like just. Smoke inhalation. Yeah, smoke inhalation. They took all that blood from me. Yeah, you had to do seven vials of blood. Probably eight, thank you. Did you have a steak?

Did you have a steak? Yeah, I did. Good. A couple of big lamb filth. Gillots. Love lamb. Hubba, Upper.

Superior meat, go. Ooh, what, out of beef and... No, no. Just how you've interpreted that question. Superior meat. I mean, look, I would go. I think the superior meat, there's a few options, but I'm going to go overall. It's like a big tomahawk.

Big steak. Oh, okay. That's too much for me. But see, listen, when you go to a nice restaurant, if they have got duck and it is a nice restaurant, you've got to get the duck because it'll be perfect. Are you joking? In the same sentence as Tomahawk, you put duck wrong. The Italians and the French are just not happy with each other.

It's fine. We can eat different foods. The only duck I like, peaking duck pancake. Speaking of food that we might like, another segue. Jess has this bean dish that makes a fart all the time. I need to, we need to come up with a name for it. We can't call it Lorenzo's beans because I don't want him to do it. We didn't even say Lorenzo's name.

No, he'd name. It's not. Just so you know. It's just a different Italian. You can tell me what it is. I'll tell you later. John. We'll be Giovanni.

How Italian. Sean, mother. I get really annoyed. So my dog is called Gianni. Jani. She's my favourite. Manja. Boy's name.

And some people read his tag or like have misinterpreted Gianni in their brain. When I see them and they go, how's Giovanni? I went. Idiots. Diavani. Yeah, they're just, yeah. Anyway, Lorenzo's beans to the three people who wanted the recipe, I will do a tutorial. If not today, Thursday, when my kids at daycare and I have the kitchen to myself.

I'll do it. I might make it too. Oh. Okay. I would love you. you to try it. It's so yummy. You were telling me about a delicious pasta you made last night. What did you make? I made a hot honey feta pasta that bakes in the oven and then you like mash it up and stuff. Rowan, we've got

to start dinner club. People are passionate about what to eat for dinner and I think we could help a lot of people. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's explore this. Let's explore it. Because the bean dish could be in my touch. What do you eat regularly, shy guy? Like, for dinner? Yeah. What's so funny, girls? I don't know I have to say about that. Why are you laughing? Be more respectful, please. It was really straight.

I'm trying to laugh. I'm trying to get you to hear me. I'm trying to get you. Just don't say chicken nuggets or something. No. No. He likes to build his own burger. Yeah, and tacos.

I do do home burgers. I do do tarquess for one. This is not weird food. It's not funny. It's funny. Excuse me. It's just so cute because I just picture him with like a full cos cause letters than going, ah, one leaf on one.

Yeah, do you know how much money I waste on. Me too. Me too. Me too. Yeah, you get me. Anyway. I need a book. What?

You need a... Who? Okay. Get back. Do you get back right now? Do you pretend you're on a cooking show? No. No.

Why? This is... Can everyone hear the nonsense that's coming out of this girl's mouth? Isn't there noise when you're cooking or so it's just dead silent? Heavy breathing. I always have something on in the background. Right question, by the way. Do you have it on a laptop or the TV?

Can you say the TV from the kitchen? Yes. What are you watching? It's just something. It could be radio, could be a podcast, could be TV. Usually Shark Tank. Guys, guys. Guys, guys. What is the food?

You eat. I have a rotation. Pizza, lasagna. Do it. Home-made burger, tacos. Now, can I ask a question about the lasagna? You need a timeout, mate. Go for a lap.

Be careful here. Yeah, hang on. Miss, every day says to me, I don't want to go to the gym today. I forgot my head burns. It's an unbelievable badsy correction. I forgot my towel. I forgot this.

I forgot that. Shy guy, can ask a question out of the lasagna? This is why we poke. Are you making lasagna? You buy in lasagna. Bullshit. You make a lot. The sheets and the bechemo and the tomato sauce.

Don't, how do you say? Bechamel again? Bechamel. He went, Bashammer. I like that he hit the mel. Unbelievable. You can't make lasagna for one serve. Are you making a trade-hick across the week?

Yeah, yeah. And then it's usually lunch for the week. Sweet. I would love to try your lasagna. It's not that great. I actually wouldn't mind trying it as well. I do an eggplant lasagna too. No meat.

Pretty good. I would like to try. I like a veg lasagna. It's dipping into Musaka. It's pretty good. Sure. Someone sent me, Musaka is the Greek lasagna, basically. It's a shit of eggplant.

not knowing. Rowan, someone sent to me, I believe it's a street in Perth. Oh, yeah. Is it a whole suburb? They do, who makes the best lasagna? There are six self-appointed judges from the community. And there's a day where everyone brings a single portion of their lasagna,

and they vote best lasagna. Maybe we should do that. I think we could do something like that. I love that. We do. The day is March 2. Synergy. I would have said 12.

Okay, sorry. Oh, we're 10 days off. But it's like we are four of us, self-appointed lasagna judges. And we go house to house. Well, I think they bring the lasagna to ass. Oh, I don't want to go anywhere. Yeah. You bring your lasagna to me.

And maybe we fly in my mum. Bring it to the big. Oh, and we have to pick witches and mum. Okay. Well, I was going to say, my mom is Regina della lasagna, queen of lasagna. She gets, like, she's the golden snitch. She counts for four votes. Oh, she's a golden snitch.

That's really funny. Something like that. Anyway, let's work. shop that. It's offline. Quickly, because we put in the podcast and some other cheeky radio show will steal it. Could be. And it doesn't have to be lasagna, even though I would like it to be.

Yeah. Could be fucking curried sausage. So Babs enjoyed it. I love the curry sauce. Really. I love curried sausages, yeah. Chokes on one once. Yeah, choking hazard for Babs.

You guys have got to just chill out of it. I'm having a real day too. I'm like half sick. I'm like, can't talk properly. And I'm throwing out. You mentioned you're sick like 18 times. I know, he wants sympathy. But you're operating.

Are you pending for a day off soon? Stop. Stop. You know, you know, you know, I wouldn't be sick if I had an IV. But stop me. I'm sorry. I would have got hydrated. I'm sorry, the government blocked your ability to do an IV.

Pardon us for trying to get it to you for free. Fucking legals. I swear to God, bro. Yeah, not our fault. No, no, I know. Blame your government. Right to your government. It's a code.

What's Albo going to do? No, I don't know what. Have we spoken about K-I-Ebstein files yet? Never mind. Let's do that another day. Is that defamation? Do you need to say allegedly? Allegedly.

And it's okay to say. Allegedly. Allegedly. Wait, stop. Have we told... Allegedly being on the F-teen files? We haven't and we won't be. Okay.

Next. Wake up for Jess and Rowan. In 2026. Something new for breakfast. Do you know Jess? I'm all about Wee-W methods to help yourself. You'll get to know Rowan.

Hot, horny happy. Yay! It's going to be good. It's going to be fine. It's going to be online. Anything could happen. Most of it probably will. I guess I need.

You need to enter the mind of a man. Please enter me. Good morning, everybody. How are you? Good morning. Couldn't be better. Oh, great. For the 3rd of February.

You look, that is, it's a lovely hybrid between a, um, dress shirt and like a dressing gown. Look at it. It's giving kimono, wouldn't you say. This is a word of appropriation. Oh, I don't know about that. I mean, it's not a kimono, but I'm just saying, Sheik, one of my favorites. And this is old because.

No, sheik. Sheik. Rowan, I am doing a no-spend 11 months. So I'm not buying myself any new clothes. Did that last year. Why don't you just give it up? Like, you go buy some stuff. You deserve that.

I did in January. January? I plugged the gaps that I identified in my no-spend year in 2020. Talk to me about the gaps. The gaps were blue jeans. The gaps were some nice tops, actually. One of them. Well, this is old.

Yeah, same a fourth. Well, now you're poking holes in the gap I identified. I didn't have enough. This girl. I can't do all the heavy lifting. I needed a couple more like her. Yeah. I needed some basics, and all my colour girlies will appreciate this,

when you're like me and like to dress, like shy guy describes a high school art teacher, you have no... Oh my God, she does too. How have you not noticed? No, I have. Never articulated it like that. How much Gorman do you wear?

I would say my wardrobe is 85 to 90% Gorman, which are bold, colourful, eclectic, quite in your face. My mother was an art teacher and she wears a lot of Gorman. It's so joyous. A lot of Gorman. That and a couple of paintbrushes in the hair. Yeah.

See, I haven't quite got that. I think it would clash with the headphones. Yes. But when that's all your wardrobe, you realize I own no black, I own no white. Sometimes your outfit does call just for a little white tank. So are you raising money for this no spend thing? Or you just thinking, I don't want to spend.

So I'm not going to spend. Raising money for my family. For the rentos. For the reno. Well, actually, I need to tell you about something a bit later on the show role. But yes, the Renault has been. The reno has bankrupt us, so I need to rein in some part of my life. And it's all your husband's fault, isn't it?

And divert. Well, he's giving me too much a leash. Oh, it is actually. You know what I was thinking about this yesterday? It is his fault. Because we picked, just one example, Shaiga, we picked a stone bench top. Yes. I think I was explaining to this year on Sunday.

We picked a stone bench top, unbeknownst to me, one of the most expensive stone benchtops you can pick. Can you believe it? I can believe it. But then I started having cold feet about that. bench top. So I went back to the stone mason. I said, ah, can I have the one on your website? He goes, oh, you found the one that's more expensive than what you had? What's more expensive about it? You mean the solid gold? Is this where it comes from? Has it got like a light in it?

Shagic, I don't ask those sort of questions. Comes to the butler. Does it? Yeah. Called Francesco. It comes with his own. It's a bit of fantasy here now. It's worth the money then. But yeah, this is the issue. So I do no spend. Cut myself off at the knees. No more shoes. What does Angus do? Nothing, because he's not as ridiculous as I am and picking the most expensive stone. Well, I'll be spending this year. Give you the red hot tip.

Shy guy, I'll be spending. Oh, you deserve it, though. You've been basically living under the poverty line for three years. May I have. Oh, my God, I have. So you've finally got full-time employment. Thank God. So you should treat yourself, whereas Jay Farchie, being a bit silly with her stone choices.

Got a, you know, you've got a take. And I am giving back to my family by not buying ridiculous things. You could just, like, why don't you have like a spending cap? Like, why don't you go, well, I will need some shoes this month. You should know this about me. Give me an inch. I will take a mile. Totally.

Because what's a spending cap? I will justify. I'll find a loophole. I love a loophole. Yeah, no loophole. There's no loophole. There's no loopholes. No, who's policing it?

Me. So I've got to make sure it's blanket. Well, it could just be you can only buy things on this car. Angus gives you to spend a year. He did give me a card. And he stupidly didn't put a limit on it. Okay. Well, that's his.

My dad would be mortified. The financial advisor who tried to teach me financial literacy. No limit cards. From like eight years old. That's, no limit cards you're rolling around in. That's, oh, it's all the spending points, isn't it? Because you know what the issue is? I don't have, it's a different bank to my usual bank.

So you can't see it. I can't see. Out of sight, out of night. It's really dangerous. That's not in then. Because we still, even though we've been together eight years married five, I got my own money. It's my money.

A sister's got our own money. Amen. And I'm a big advocate for that. You should have your own money. You do? You need your own money. Yes. But I spent his money.

Why wouldn't you? Why would you? Wow, Jess has so much savings. Angus is like, hey, can you throw him your bone, babe? Angus is like, I'm eating two minute noodles over here. What are you doing? What are you doing? I'm getting lobster morning.

So, yeah, this is why this shirt from about three years ago is going to get a hell of a run this year. Are you accepting gifts? Absolutely. Okay. Talk about loophole. Jess, we're linking to bio, and it's my gift list. It's disgusting. needs to live.

Do you know, last year, when I was doing the no spend, I had a gorgeous rice cooker message me when I was saying, I need new runners, but I don't want to break the no spend. She goes, Jess, I'll buy you runners. She never did, but I loved the thought. She said I'm six and a half. She never sent the runners. You have no shame. I love it.

She never sent the runners. People show they love in different ways. If you want to send me runners, Jenny, I would have accepted them. She bailed on me. So anyway, that's where I met. She was writing checks. She couldn't cash. That's absolutely it.

Totally. Anyway, how are you feeling? You were two minutes later than you have been. I got more at like five and I got here at like 20 to six. Yeah, I was worried. I did the whole, because we're getting up about four. I did the whole, I did another hour, my body was another hour. And then I just, it just hit me with the whole, oh yeah, it's half past five now.

100%. I was meant to be at work. Shit. That's all right. You made it before the on air. You can probably hear in my head. We'll spark up after Olivia Dean, I'm sure. Oh, Olivia Dean.

Everyone's favourite. Grammy Award winner. Yes, we'll do a Grammy wrap up as well. Shy guys got the details for us. As well, we're going to get you on our wicked cruise. Guys, we're giving away a cruise. Absolutely, listening out for a shiphorn. Seven to nine nights fluttering away on the boat.

Beautiful. There is so much happening this week. But up next, Rowan. Oh, my God. I always had to fight someone just, like, just before I got here. Oh, well, that's why you're late. That's why. Well, I thought this would be a great excuse.

I thought this would be a great excuse. We'll talk about that next. I'm here to support everyone. Absolutely. This is Jess and Rowan. You nearly went into fisticuffs this morning. Oh my God. I had some questions this morning.

Only about 20 minutes ago. Hot off the press. As I'm coming down the road, I see these pair of lights kind of outside where we would go into the building. And I went, oh, it's probably a posty or something. Early morning delivery. Yeah, it's like a delivery guy. So it just stayed there, came around the roundabout, popped in, drove past him. And as I turn into the driveway, he turns in behind me.

He starts to tailgate, you. Totally. And I was like, this guy has been sitting there as long as I've been on the road. So he's had plenty of time to go in. Why now? I was like, this guy, is this guy, I better see if he's going to touch his tag or tag. No tag. I hit it.

Gate comes up. Go in. I'm staring. You're in the window. I'm absolutely like. beaming. Couldn't see a face either. So I was like, do I know this person? Or it's a dark tint, is it? Yeah, yeah. I was like, do I know this person in this very generic white delivery looking van? Okay. I was like, who is this? Don't know. Keep going. They follow. No touch of the tag.

Okay. They have a buzzed in. Got okay. Maybe they are here and they are meant to be here and they just know they can tailgate and it's fine. It doesn't matter. They don't really care. If you're the one who has lifted the garage door, why would they then touch the tag? It's not like it's a clock in. Exactly. It's just an access thing. I'm also new to the building.

So I don't, you know, maybe that's fine. Maybe you're allowed. Maybe it's all the time. Maybe Jess does it when Chygoi gets it. As if you read that module, the security building module. No. I've done, by the way, everyone, I've done the module so many times over my life. I don't even, I can just do the quiz.

That's right. You don't do watch the 45 minute. unskippable tutorial video. wrong. Give me another go. Oh, it is that one. Yeah, sorry. Correct. So then I'm like a couple of levels up. Let's see. This person follows me. Next level follows me. Next level follows me again. I'm like, all right. He's come to kill me. Let's see. Let me see where he parks. Okay. So if he parks. Because we are in a seven-story building and there are allocations for each of the workplaces.

Again, I still haven't met any more of everyone in the building. So maybe they are just coming in, right? if they park close to me, they got no problem being close to me, I'll think it's okay. If they park a little bit away from me, I will go say something. I've got to say something. I've got to go, who are you? What were you planning on saying? I was going to, I would have been like, are you meant to be here? You would not have.

Are you confrontational? I did it all the time. Never in a million. You know what I would have done if that was me? I would have sat in my car and called you, shy guy and bab to say, hey, bring clubs because I'm in danger. And I would have ran. Thank you. No, for the fun.

Not for you. It would have been... With the camera. We would have like, Shy guy, get the microphone. Shy guy strap the GoPro to your chest. Honestly. It's going down. I would have been like, I would have been like, you didn't tap in.

Maybe we haven't met. Who are you? Wow. Good on. You way to protect building security because if it was, I'm assuming because you're standing in front of me, it wasn't a killer. If it was a killer, that could have been coming for Bats. I could have been coming for Shik or could have been coming for me.

Oh, just so everyone knows, they parked right next to me. And as I'm getting out, they go, Rowan. And I went, okay, well, they know me. It was RISY from Kri-Liam. And I went, ah, I'm rising. He went, yeah, man, I couldn't find path, man. Oh, was he in the people mover? I was like, bro, you look like a dodgy delivery guy who just wanted to get in.

He had kidnapped big people mover van. Yeah, yeah. I said if it wasn't like an off-brand posty van, what is this? This van's up to no good. Yeah, I just lost it. He loses his pass every week. Does he? Okay.

Well, it's good to know. That's a normal thing. This is Jess and Rowan. We scrounged around for some pennies, sent shy guy over to America to be our Grammys correspondent. But we said, you're not staying the night. Can you stop ruining me? It's not actually possible, though, because of the flight times. Stop it.

Stop it. Hey, we had a great yes and moment last week, and you've lost it all. I'm going to try again. So yesterday, Ron, we scrounged our pennies. You and I out of our own pockets. sent shy guy to the Grammys but said, you can't spend the night. We're going to need you back for the morning show.

You have to get back for the show. To be our correspondent. Give us the hot goss. Hot goss. From the red carpet and the awards. What was the carpet like soft? Red. Okay.

All right. We're going to have a chat. Well, let's start up. He's working up on the wrong side of the bed today. We have a chat. No, no, no. We'll start at the red carpet. Chapel Rone.

Did we see what Chapel Rone is? We're getting straight into it. Pink Pony Club. Pink Pony Nipples. Yeah. I got a lot of question. Questions about this. How, Jess, can you explain how the dress was hold on?

So the dress has got... I'm not quite sure. It's almost like it's meant to be up around her neck, but she's put it down around her navel with just two pieces of fabric extending upwards attached to each nipple via a nipple ring. But I don't see any nipple. I just see the like... The ring.

Yeah, just see the ring. So how have they covered... Look, it's just all white. Is it a suit? With a ring on it? There's normally a change of colour on the boo. Do you actually make an excellent? So, I mean, I've not seen every nipple.

I would say, yeah, mate, but like, fair argument says this is what a nipple looks like. Anyway, so that's trouble running on the red carpet. If you're going to do it, do it. Babs has got a contribution. Yes, I just saw this morning that her stylist confirmed it's actually prosthetics. I was going to say it's prosthetics. Yes. So they've covered the real nipple.

Is that because no images would have been allowed on Instagram because they still ban the nipple? I'd assume so, yes. So there can be no pinkish, brownish hue. Discrimination. I couldn't agree more. Or is that in case she trips over or someone stands on the dress? Mate, it still would hurt. I can guarantee you pull that off.

You're still hurt. Can you imagine? So they would have made the prosthetics on the dress and then they would have put her on and they would have put... And what glued it on? Yes, I would say they would have put the prosthetics on the dress already and then she would have put the dress on and then they would have stuck them. I think you're right. On the boot. Stuck onto the boot.

Boob. Hoolie, duly. So, yeah, she stole all my attention on the red carpet. Did she end up winning anything? I don't know. I don't remember. We sent you to the, you don't remember. Did you not watch much of it?

Oh, you're just out of the back having a dart with all the celebrities. I get at a time. He was just trying to get close to Harry Stiles. Don't blame me. Every artist was there. Lots of life performances. We'll play them on the show later this morning. But one, Bieber is back.

He performed. He's some of Yukon. In the city. He performed this in his underwear. So from chapel's nippers to Bieber's undies. Why was he in his undies? Was it an artistic choice you could decipher? I think it just helps him stay in that line.

Is this from your phone? This is really good. Yeah, I held on my iPhone. I hear it deep breathing from here. It's shy. I hate Bieber. You hate Bieber? I don't hate Bieber, but I've seen Bieber live.

granted, circa 2016, lazy ass performer. Would have been Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena. He was over it by then. He was so sick of it. He was so over it, Robin. He wouldn't get the one less lonely girl puts him in a chair. Is that bad? Oh my God, he did half of it on a couch, so it might have been.

But okay, so he gets, why does he get to perform? He's coming back. Because he's got a new one. He's coming back. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Next up, Alex Warren. He performed. I love Alex.

He heard this. Oh. So he's got that feeding into his ears. He doesn't know how to keep up. It sounds a bit like when I poured water on the desk. And the radio station is exactly like it. So you saw that live, shy guy. Well, you couldn't really tell.

He pushed through. But he later revealed on TikTok what actually was. Which is the audio that you heard. And that would be his first time performing at the Grammys. God, it might be his first time at the Grammys. Yeah. And he's standing up on this little platform, which is hard. itself to keep the balance as the little

platform going around the stadium. It looks like a spaceship. It does. Massive professional. Snaps for Warren. Snaps for Alex. We should play the ordinary later in his honour. Maybe. And the last one I just want to hit on. Cher revealed the record of the year, the big award.

Oh, that's the big one. Oh, she's the queen. The big award. And allegedly someone told her a bit of misinformation before she... They told her this? They told her what she says. Have to listen. And the Grammy goes to... They told me it was going to be on a Hampton.

Okay. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Did she say Luther Vandross? Yes, who died in 2005. She'd take it the bit? So the song, so Kendrick won the award for his song, Luther, which does sample. Luther Vandross. So on her card does it say Luther?

No one knows what the card actually says. This is giving the Oscars from that year. Didn't reveal what the card said, and it wasn't on the prompter of share thought it would be. But yeah, Vandos died in 2005. I was going to say, it's actually not very fair. She's getting old. She's, is she in her 80s now? She'd be 78 at a minimum, I think.

You can't be wish. And she'd have so much on her. 79. She's 79. She'd have so much on her mind. You can't be saying Luther Vandross. Luther at all. No.

When she knows Luther Vandross. No, but that was one of my home. Did it take away from Kendrick? No, Kendrick said, Cameron Panda Kendrick, because they knew to, you know, shot on Kedrick. Yep. And then Kendri was like, Did they, did she mean me? Is that me?

That me? And then like, Kendrick's backup guy. I was like, yeah, that's you bro. Get up. And then they carried on and had it. What a humble king though. He wasn't like, I know she means me. I'll just wait.

We need to be doing better with Nan. Like, you've got to give Nan very clear directions. I would say, we need it on the prompter for Nan. We also need it on a card for Nan. And we also don't need to be saying anything that she could confuse with something else. Correct. Could you pass that feedback on when we send you next year? Sure.

Absolutely. This is Jess and Rowan. Hey, it's Babs. And this is my blog. Commence, Operation Superstar Brat. I love the opener Babs. Thank you. For the first time in 2026, because she gave herself the first week off,

unbeknownst to us. Tuesday, right last week, I went, where's the blog? She goes, oh, do you want it again? Yes, I do. She's needed to ease in, you know? But after dips, it's my favourite part of the week, Rowland. Is it really? It's where Babs gets free rain.

Because she's a relatively closed book. This is a nice way to force her to share. Is it like just you talking about like... Whatever I want. This is your moment. It's her four minutes. Yeah. It's her four minutes, baby. Anything.

Well, let me step back. Let me step back. All right. So you know, I obviously bring you guys, you know, the hottest things that are happening in my life, the most important things. For real. Well, I've bought my first adult purchase.

What? I bought a vacuum without a stream. Yay! Without a string. We still have one of those. About a blog, yeah. You met a cord? A string.

Okay, thank you for interpreting Rowan. I had no idea what. I'm like a balloon vacuum. What's that? I got one that's like not plugged in. Cordless. Yeah, cordless. So would you buy like a Dyson?

No, I got it from Aldi. She doesn't get paid enough for a Dyson. Rose. Yeah, I was walking along Aldi the other day. I was like, oh my God, they got a vacuum. So I bought it. In the special buys? In the weird and wonderful Middle Is it?

Is it good? Yes, it is. It actually has a little light on the front so you can like pick up all the things. That's vacuuming at 1 a.m. Yeah. It's awesome. Oh, it's awesome. Yeah, so lately what I've been doing, because I was so excited by this vacuum, felt so lame.

For anyone who is unfamiliar with Babs' stats, 24 years old. Yes, yes. I do, yeah. But, well, after we had that maggot infestation and we had to vacuum up all our maggots, our vacuum has smelled so bad. So then this is why we want. Do you have any follow-up questions, Rowan? Or would you like to just do you know?

Just please never say maggot in this video again. Sorry. It's really sad to me the wrong way. It was a really bad day. What do they smell like, bro? No, we have to vacuum them up and like bleach them and stuff. So that's how we got rid of them. And then because we did that, our vacuum smelled like wet dog.

But also, it doesn't matter even if you had cleaned it and cleaned it. The maggots have peroxide hair and they're doing runways. If you had cleaned that vacuum, it would always be the vacuum we cleaned up maggots with. Yeah. Like, it's ruined. So now we've got a new one, yeah. But I've been so excited that I've been so excited that I've, been purposely messing up the house so that I can use it.

Really? Yeah, so my shoes were really dirty the other day. And I was like, oh, I'll take them off because, you know, it'll... Before I track mud inside. Yeah, but then I went, I'm going to track mud through the house just so I can use my vacuum. And this... Did you go halves with your housemate? Uh, yeah, yeah.

So it's a shared item. But it's still really exciting. It is exciting. Yeah. I saw a unbranded, like it wasn't a Dyson stick vac in hard rubbish literally yesterday. Oh, well, you should have got that for me. And Lucia and I would comment. Look, she's going vacuum.

I said, someone must be throwing it away. I hope it wasn't the same brand. I have had two Dyson vacuums in my life, and I've got them both from hard rubbish. Really? I think you just plucks them out of hard. No, no, no. Because when I was living in Brisbane, lived in a little hoist-oity-to-oity area. They put one downstairs.

I took it off-sail. Let me see if it works. Worked. It's not stealing if it's hard rubbish. Same thing happened in Sydney. That I don't want it. You should go. That's a great hack.

Go through the rich areas. Council clean-offs. That's also applies. to the op shops in richer areas. Their donations. Higher quality items. Higher quality donations. Rowan, you're sure the person wasn't just like

ducking to their car and they were packing the vacuum to go on a trip or go to their Airbnb? Hang on. Who packs the vacuum to go on a trip? No, you know what I mean? Like they're going somewhere that they'll need the vacuum. Trips sounds like they're packing. It doesn't make sense to me.

Bye now. Bye now. This is Jess and Robin. Alfa Buck. Jess and Rowan's 10K alpha bucks on hit. Absolutely. $10,000 at 7 o'clock and at 8 o'clock every day, all the time. Basically, any time from like, I shouldn't say this, but you need to be listening from like 10 to 8,

10 to 7. And then you know that's when you call 131060. I don't love that. Right. We're on from 6. Yep. We're basically telling everyone. Don't worry about the first hour of the show.

Okay, people have kids and they're doing stuff. Yeah, but we can give them a lull. And then they win 10 grand at 7. We want people listening more, not less. Get the listener at, listen to us while you do your various things. Thank you, shy guys. My point was, if you wanted to call, that's when you need to be picking up the phone specifically. Yeah, listen.

I need to listen out for the little person that goes, down in 1060 call now. Let's find out how Paul's morning's been. Paul, have you only just tuned in because you know, what, Jess and Rowan have 10 grand? Are you with us from 6? I'm with you from 6. Yeah, and that's who I want to win $10,000. Not someone who blows in five minutes to spare. Paul.

It's who I want to win $10,000 as well. Amen, brother. You. You win. Thank you for joining the program so early for being here right now. What's motivating? What do you want to spend $10,000 on, babe? Well, I want to renovate my boat, actually.

It's a long story. It sank. It sank. We've got time. What's the boat, sorry? Yeah, what happened? How did it sink? Well, I was given a boat, which is the worst thing anyone could ever do to anybody.

and they say there are a hole in the ocean, which ended up being a hole in the ocean. It sank at the marina. Paul, did it actually have a hole when it was given to you? Like, were you stitched up here? It had previously sunk. I don't want that. And what, they fished it off the bottom of the ocean

and then they went, I'll spruce it up and give it to Paul. Well, well, the time I got it, it was fine. It was back up and it was floating, and it was great, and we took it back to the marina and we moored it there and started paying the fees, and then we got a phone call to say one day it was sitting back on the bottom again. Oh, my God. This is sounding like sabotage.

You could just get a new boat, don't you think? Well, 10 grand. 10 grand, get you a boat, Paul? Oh, it's a big boat. No. It's a big boat. All right, well, Paul, let's get your 10 grand to plug the leak in the boat. Yes. I don't want you to freak out when you hear the letter.

It's Z. It's a back end of the alphabet, but there's only so many words that start with Z. And you just need 10 of them, okay? It's a memorable. Okay, let's give it a crack. Let's give it a crack. It's all we can ask, Paul. Let's do it.

Your time will start after the first question. Starting with the letter Z, we need you to name. A number. Zero. A kid's movie. Zilander. A country. Zimbabwe.

A fashion brand. Zen. A verb. No. A periodic element. Zink. A five-letter word. Lost me.

Lost you. I heard the hesitation in kids movie, Paul. You're like, I'm going to say it just to say something. Yeah, I was like, damn it. I've got the picture in my head, but I've got the adult version in my there as well. Same. Zootopia. That was it.

Oh, and you said Zoolander. I had the picture in my head. You had the poster. Damn. I think I'd let mine. My kids watch Zoolander. You letting your kids watch it doesn't make it a kids movie, though. Okay.

Fair enough. That's my opinion. But I appreciate you want to give Paul the extra point because he's a legend and a half. I'm not. I'm not doing the nerdy run. No, you're not. How many did you get? How many did he get, Row?

You got, I'm going to give you zero. I'm going to give you Zimbabwe. You've got about four, mate. Four's good. That'll do. Better than one. Better than one. Could have had.

I would have rather the water slide question. You would have got that. I would have put on a cruise. The wedge you got straight away. Okay, Paul's having to like. Paul, I love you. I'm really enjoying you. Good on you, Paul.

You're enjoying Paul. I am enjoying Paul. I am enjoying Paul. This is Jess and Rowan. We're just going to bring the heart rate down a little bit. Are we? Why? Actually, you make a great point of getting out of my chair.

We have a very special friend in studio this morning. I go to your own day, man. I'm glad you're fine and looking at you. It's nice to be noticed you, mate. Thank you, mate. I respect you and notice you. It's not about me. It's not about you.

It's about our guest who has made the journey into the studio today, Rowan. Comedi, good morning. Good morning. Now, for anyone who missed it a couple of days ago, it was late last week, I believe. It was, yeah. Comedy popped into the studio because we saw you trying to gain traction on social media, my friend. Would you say that's fair? Yes, that's fair, yes.

Yeah, something I did on social media last week. A big company responded and said, hey, if you get 100K likes, let's have a chat. That's right. You created off your own bat, off your creative little musical brain, a jingle for KFC. It sounded a little like this. Chicken thighs, drumsticks and wings. Chicken so good makes me want to sing. Hens and spices secret recipe.

Nothing tastes better than K. FFC. Nice. And we wanted to get on at the ground level. I wanted to talk to you about it. We love to get in early. We do love to get in early. And claim comedian.

Yeah. Absolutely. From that conversation, yeah. Oh, mate, Red Rooster enters the chat. That's right. Can you explain what happened with a Red Rooster? So they obviously saw the post on TikTok and they jumped into the comment section.

And while we were here at the studio, obviously, you just, Like, oh, what would you do for Red Rooster? And I just, off the cuff, just came up with a little, little melody, a little jingle. And what did they do? They, yeah, they grabbed that audio and made their own reel. They stole our content and put music behind it. On their own. Red Rooster.

More like the Red Rootter. No, and I actually can't bother him. I'm a little bit passionate about this. I saw it and thought, wow, no comment, no tagged. And I was like, even committee hasn't tagged this. So now he's up. No, but bigger issue here. So seriously, can you tell us, you do this little made-up riff in here?

Yep, that's it. And then Red Rooster takes that audio, puts it on some sort of their own little auto-tune. It's actually in the Suna or something probably. They've got so many I to put a B. And then laid it over marketing vision of people enjoying their products. Yeah, and it was a quick turnaround. It was very quick. We sued.

We sue it, Dorn. Sorry, we do. Season to Cis. Yeah, Cis and Cis and Cis and Cis. Right now. Right that down. Cis and Cis and Cis' Cis. Right.

I don't understand how things work. Did you get paid for that? They did in email. Don't say free chicken. Yeah, so they did email and say, like, we'll send you, like, some merch and some things. No. I pay my rent with merch. Sure.

Take my T-shirts or my electricity bill. But it's crazy what they've done. But in all, like, this campaign started with KFC. That was my first year. See, how he's flipped again? He's just going, who cares? I'll flip it again. He's OG.

KFC was new. He's sticking to. That was my first video. That's the video that's gone viral, sitting at 5 million views last time. Oh, amazing. It is crazy. Where's that at? Where are we at with the KFC vibe?

So, no one knows this, but they have contacted me. Let's go. And all I can say is... No, no, we don't do all I can say in here. What did they say? There's something in the works and to watch this space. There's something in the friar. It's cooking, baby.

Now, when you say there's something in the works, you tell us what you can. Of course, we don't want to get you in trouble with anyone. I think we've got your black lizard from a rooster now. So let's focus on KFC. But are we talking acknowledgement of services and beautiful vocals and made up lyrics will be acknowledged properly? Let's just say, you will be hearing my song on your screens very soon. Oh, my every day.

That's it. Said a lot. Roder, what did we say? We love people. No. Who makes something out of nothing. We said we love to get paid. So we're sending committing the bill.

Yeah. That's awesome, dude. That's great. That's awesome, man. For putting, and I don't mean this in a rude way, a silly little thing out. It's crazy. Sitting on your couch, you on a Sunday night. A Sunday night.

Dreams come true, baby. Yep. I think that's where the. The more authentic it is and you throw it up, I think people relate to that or think, oh, I can do that. Hard for you, dude. That's awesome.

Oh, that's amazing. I'm on this chicken pie buzz at the moment. It's my new song, that's what I'm singing at all my gigs now. He'll be doing a tour of KFCs. Good for you, dude. It's crazy. It's awesome, yeah.

You deserve it. Yeah, it's crazy how it started as a funny thing. And now it's like, okay. An actual thing. It's an actual thing. Well, as long as you bring in a bucket, dressed as a chook. This is Jess and Rowan.

I just looked at our show sheet and it says far-fetched there. Jess has a far-fetched idea. But I thought it said, Jess farted. And we're going to talk about Jess's fart. Wouldn't be the first time. She rips them in the studio, right? That usually doesn't make the board. They usually just happen.

And then we reflect because we are live and dangerous. I might be able to conjure one up. I have to protein coffee tonight. I don't feel like yeah. If you do, go outside. I had a can of beans for lunch yesterday. Go to Babbs. No, don't even go outside of the beans.

Candolini. Yeah. Not like a high spade. No, I saute them. No, mate. Sortay the beans with onion and garlic, a bit of paprika. Some diced cherry tomatoes. And beans.

Lashings of Baramijano and then a squiggle of olive oil. Unbelievable. That sounds a fine. Right now. Fart meal. It is. I think it's high in fire. It's good for you.

We should do what's your fire. meal. Does that mean makes you far? Yeah. What? Or does that mean you purposefully eat it too far? Lunch. Yeah.

Anyway, no poo chat. I always feel... It's not a poo. It's just fast. I always feel it's different. I always feel like I'm almost micro cheating on Angus when I make the fart meal, the beans, because I got that recipe from the Italian stallion when I was living in London. Who's that?

And I had a, oh, I had a trist with an Italian man. And he was an excellent cook. I bet he was. So you met Miguel from. He's Spanish. My apologies. My apologies. Not all Europeans are the same, shy guy.

But he taught me how to make the bean dish, Rowan? The bean dish. So every time I make the bean dish, I have to stop making the bean dish. Are you joking? I have it twice a week. I can't stop making the bean dish. Oh, wait, I don't love your husband. What interesting little revelation.

No, I do. More than anything. Stop making the bean dish. I can't. It's so good. Stop making the bean dish. What if I stop mentioning that it's connected to someone that I had a romantic relationship with? We all know now.

The only reason you have that bean dish, because you had a romantic. relationship with another Italian salians. Yes. Are you telling, because I... Stop eating the bean dish. Stop eating the bean dish. Because I literally had this conversation with some girlfriends the other day. I'm a big believer.

Delete all social media of the ex. One of my girls is seeing a new person and they still have a lot of photos of their past relationship. Like romantic kissing pictures. And I literally put in the chat, oh, I'd be flagging that. That should all go. Can't eat the bean dish. So you're telling me that's equivalent to keeping the handbag, keeping the photo.

Can't eat the bean. If you gave your ex a handbag. Stop, stop, stop it. Stop trying to deflect us from the bean dish. I got rid of all the bags and jewelry. How many bags and jewelry was he buying you? I got a couple. He was a generous person.

I can't get rid of the bean dish. You don't care for that, mate. You like good food. So be in the bean dish. I do like good food. I can't stop. Stop being the bean dish. I'm texting Angus right now.

No, don't. I don't actually know if he knows. That's where the bean dish comes from. Does he not know about the bean dish? Because he doesn't like the bean dish. So I make it on my own in private. Do you know about the bean dish? Sorry, stop, stop.

Repeat that right now. I've made him the bean dish and he's like, too beanie. He's not a huge bean guy. Wow. So I have to make it on my own when we're alone. You know what? This is as bad as scorn lovers

naming their child as an ex because they miss them. This is bad. You could not put that in the same category. Don't get off your chair, mate. Like it's a big deal. I didn't name Lucia. Insert Italian man's name. Rocky Balboa.

Listen, it's the Italian-selling. Come on, that's really neat. You've got to give you that one. I don't want to give you that one. Enough about it. There's actually no more bean dish, mate. You better not eat the bean dish again.

I'm furious. You can't have the bean dish. I just won't think about. Farts. I just won't think about him when I cook it. You will. You will now. No, I won't.

I'll turn it off. Oh, okay. You won't. I won't turn off the lover. What if I switched out canolini for like butter? Or burlotti. Could work? No.

Can I change the bean dish? Because you've got, you've got, I love this bean dish. It's so good. It's so yummy. Can you make me the bean dish? What if I make you the bean dish? Then you decide. Tomorrow, this time, we'll try the bean dish.

No, but I need a stove. It's got to be fresh. I can't do it the night. You got a stove, don't you? Where? Here, I mean, I want to talk fresh for him. I'll get the vibe, mate. Yeah, just reheated.

It's okay. Reheated beans. See, everyone's stop right now. See how passionate you are about this bean dish? The passionate you are about the Italian, Stali and Rocky. But also, Rowan, if I give... No, I can't. See, you're so invested in him.

You can't even say his name because you eat the bean dish. He DM'd me once. When? Not long ago. Found me. And how long after that did you cook the bean dish? I've been cooking the bean dish since I'm at him in 2012. No, no, no.

No, no. From DM to the next time you cooked the bean dish, when did you cook it? Oh, I might have been in my mind. There we go. This is Jess and Rowan. Ah, that Jess is still cooking after learning it from an Italian stallion. She used to hook up with in London. Circa 2012.

And I was saying that she actually, she's so, here's the thing, she's so into this bean dish. It's got nothing to do with the fella. No, no, no, no, no, but you feel so passionate about this bean dish. It's an amazing bean dish. So much so, I'll probably have it twice a week. It's my fibre for that. I have no, I have no food from.

You're meant to have more than we do. Kathy has DM'd us. And now don't forget. We don't do call of fame anymore. We do cooker of the week, which means yes calls, yes texts, yes, DMs, could win you an amazing price. Text line 048-88-1069. Please, Texas.

This week, it's a two-night stay in the Hunter Valley with an amazing abundance array of things around that. Kathy, she's at the top of the pile for me. She said, hi guys, love the show. So funny. Quick one for you. Jess, can I get the recipe for the bean dish? Well, she won't be cooking anymore, Katz.

So yes, you can. That the Italian stallion, may. for you. It sounds delicious. Yes, it is, Kathy. I will momentarily send it to you when I get to a song. The deliciousness is not in question. Let's talk about it next, were you? We do. Things you've inherited from an ex. I allow her to keep enjoying them. This is Jess and Rowan. I had a revelation with Jess. She found out, oh, I found out that she was still making this ex-lovers food dish twice a week. And I said she has to stop cooking it, okay, this bean

dish. Actually, describe the bean dish for us. It is a beautiful menage, Rowan. Onion and garlic. Stop, stop. Stop. Do not say menage about the ex-lovers meal. It's got nothing to do with him. You just said menage. I did, because it is onion and garlic.

The two greatest foundation flavors known to man. Sortayed in olive oil. Good quality. Extra virgin. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Then you dump a whole can of canolini beans. You've got to do the juice as well. Now, I prefer Annalisa.

Juice as well. Yes, because it's going to simmer low heat. In those juices, you put a sprinkle of paprika. Yep. Maybe a little bit of Paramajano then, but that could wait till the end. Okay. And you simmer, simmer, simmer. I like to cut up some cherry tomatoes in there.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Simmer until the beans are nice and soft. You put it in a bowl, lashings of good quality, extra virgin olive oil. Paramajano then. And you enjoy that dish. And beans are one of the keys to longevity. Are we hearing how passionate she is about this meal? It is so yummy and very simple.

But I did learn that recipe from an ex-lover. When I was in London on exchange for six months, I did have a trist with an Italian man. Trist, there was that. Then I said, what does Angus think about this? You said, I don't know if he knows. Well, he knows the bean dish exists because I've made the bean dish for him. He doesn't care for it. I don't know how.

You hid the fact that you learnt this dish on a night with your ex-Italian-Stallian lover. from over a decade ago. It's not good about it. It's the way that you are so passionate about this dish. So, yum. So we want to know on 131060, because I'm getting a lot of judgment for having retained the recipe. You are saying, I must flick it from my repertoire. Yes, of course.

And it's funny because I, up until this point in my life, Rowan, would have agreed about stuff and photos, gifts from an ex. Certainly any jewelry. Rings us got to go. Can't be wearing jewelry. photos of social media. I think that's all got to be deleted. Yep, yep, yep. You were saying, well, the recipe counts as all that.

You are also in agreeance. We remove any history. Yeah, you got to get rid of it. Funny you say that. Oh, talk about Lucy. You've had to say that Rowan had his ex-girlfriend when I met him. Well, Lucy DM'd me. Oh, good on you.

Hey, Lou. Your current soulmate. That sounds like you're going to go rid of that. The woman you currently say. She is lady of my dreams. Ask Rowan about the shirt he tried to give me from his car when he was cleaning it. That was from an ex, says Lucy. I don't, I don't, there's no shirt.

What shirt? She said, ask Rowan about the shirt. He tried to give me from his car when he was cleaning it. Give her? To sell it. To sell it? Are you playing dumb? There's nothing.

I swear to God, on my mother. I don't know what she's talking about. Lucy, he doesn't, he's blocked it from his memory. He's pleading the fifth. I plead the fifth and the fourth. Did you still have a girlfriend's shirt? shirt in your car when you were with Lucy. No.

You had it in your car. What car? I don't know, man. She saw what she messaged me. She gave me all the information. I never had a car. No. Look me in the eye and say you get rid of everything from X's. Tell Lucy, I look, I get rid of everything from X's because they're done.

She thinks there is a shirt that remains. So you're a hypocrite. Tell Lucy to say what the colour was. So it helps me remember because I don't remember. We need more info, Lucy. Need more info. But it would appear we're both hippocet. Because you're holding on to stuff in the exes.

I'm not. I'm doing a recipe which apparently counts. So we'd love to hear from you. You're doing a recipe twice a week that you love. It's delicious. That you love. And according to the documentary I watched on how to live to 100, beans are key to longevity.

Do you love it? I love it. It's delicious. It's got nothing to do with the dude. What do you think, shy guy? I think 13, 1060. Can you keep something from an egg? Ebony has textus.

Yeah. I inherited my potato bake recipe from an ex and I cook it once a week. What does husband think? My husband loves it and says, thank Christ, you met your ex and got this recipe from them. I like that. I like that. Someone else's de-empt, uh, textus. I still wear a necklace my ex bought me that has his initial on it, Ryan.

Bad, bad. I now, I now say the initial is for my dog. it's a nice bloody necklace. She needs to get someone to buy her some new necklaces. Now, if you're changing what things mean... See what I mean? That's bad. That's nowhere near as bad as the bean dish. Are you joking?

Sorry, sorry, sorry. Bean dish isn't as bad as that. Sorry, that's my fault. My God. 131060, if you like to join us on the phone. Do you let your child eat this bean dish? Wow. Well, yeah, it's good for her.

You hear of the shit? Oh, there is a lot. Sorry, I'd buy. 13, 1060. Can you keep stuff from the X? And I guess by extension, can you critique me in particular? Does a recipe count? Because you're about to throw out my whole lunchtime routine if you deem it.

I just want the beans out for some pasta. That's not what you're not with you. I'll have to eat more pasta. This is Jess and Rowan. And just before we were talking about Jess's ex-lover used to make her this meal she makes all the time. And I don't think she should make it as much as she does. It's a bean dish. She hasn't told her husband that that's why she loves it so much.

It's not why I love it so much. Watch your dirty mouth. It is a delicious dish that multiple people have now asked me to post the recipe for. So maybe keep an eye on the social. I do need you to make it for me. I need to at least try it. You don't get one single bean from me with this. Lack of support.

A few people have gotten in touch on the text line, Rowan, because we are asking. What are they saying? Can you keep stuff from an ex? And supplementary, does a recipe count? Keep stuff. Because up until this point, I would have said no to jewelry, gifts. God, even if your ex had bought you a car, I would say,

no, the juju is attached. You've got to get rid of it. Recipes are quite personal, though. Recipe has now split the audience. Alison DM'd us and said, I totally disagree. You can keep anything you want from a previous relationship, particularly a recipe. Eat the beans and live in the moment.

Get off a pedestal. Ali. Get off a pedestal. Beck, text us. I'm with you, Jess. It's all right. A recipe isn't the same. I make a pasta dish.

To this day that my ex cooked for me 25 years ago. I'm now in my 40s. Kids and hubby love it. I message Beck back. I said, do they know you learned it from your ex? She goes, I'm sure I mentioned it once. I just don't advertise. So no.

It's a no. Because she would go, of course they do. If they knew, it's a no. She says we have it so often now. This is the problem. This is exactly. the problem. Someone else then, I learned how to make pork and chive dumplings from my partner.

Can't get rid of that information. You mean you learn how to do that? You can learn. It's quite impressive, actually. Rob's called up though. Rob, on 131060, how are you, legend? Good, guys. How are we?

Good, Rob. What's your stance on keeping stuff from an ex? Okay, if it's like, everything gets, like, gone from an ex. Okay. But a recipe, like, you can't say a native food. That's the most sensible. to something else, Rob. Rob, that's the most sensible thing

that's ever been talked about on this show. It's not like it's a piece of jewelry, am I right? Exactly, exactly. So I've got two dishes that my ex showed me how to cook. Here we go, that comes out. I'm married now and I've got kids and we make them quite often

and my wife knows all about it. No, the miss is just happy you're cooking, Rob. Well, that's true. Rob. Babs, can you keep Rob's information? I want to learn what the dish is. because if they've stood the test of time, that means they must be delicious.

They must be good, yes. Chris, also on 13, 1060. Good morning. Good morning. Where do we stand on keeping stuff from an ex? Well, I've been divorced now for probably 15 years, and I've still got my wedding plates. Plates, like crockery?

Yes. Now, when you say wedding plates, like they were a gift, or is that what you ate off at the wedding? No, that's what we got it as a gift. That's got it. You got it again. So they're really nice plates or you don't want to get new plates? I'll be just don't want to get new plates.

Can't bother you. Can't bother you. This is Jess and Rowan. Alfa Buck. Jess and Rowan's 10K alpha bucks on hit. Cannot wait for this to go off. Cannot wait for someone to get the 10 questions needed to get the $10,000 for Justin Rowan's alpha bucks.

Look, it's not like we've been on together for that long. Well, I want it to go off ASAP. I need some big money. Moments. Shy guys just sitting over here, sitting on the money, incubating it like a mother hen. Yuck. And Emma, we would like to get it out from under him and get it into your bank account. Oh, I would love that. I would love it.

Excellent. Well, that's the energy we need. I would love you to love to have it, Emma. The question is, once it's deposited, what are you blowing it on? Well, I would definitely be taking my kids up to Kakadu and do some cultural tours. Oh. Yeah, that's just so deadly, yeah. That is phenomenal, Emma.

By the way, sorry, Carissa. Why aren't we saying deadly more? That is phenomenal. That's a great description. Yes, Emma. Yes. Your motivation is there. The energy is bang on.

There is just one last thing left to do. Yeah, a couple of things. Find that letter. Find that letter. You're not going to believe it. It's D for deadly. No, it's not. It's D for deadly, Emma.

That is a great omen. I can't even make this up. That's incredible. Are you ready to go, M? Let's do it. Your time. We'll start after the first question. Starting with the letter D,

we need you to name something in the bedroom. The door. A currency. Dollar. A verb. Domino. An occupation. A driver?

A cleaning brand. Domestos. A flower. Daisy. A soft drink. Diet Coke An international city Denmark

A reality TV show Yeah I'm Don't Get her alive A fiend Oh my God You are the best player we've had in 2026

You are by far the best player we've had Emma Emma Emma you were so I got I got bumps babe A reality show Could have been

Dancing with the Stars Or deadly as I'm not putting this on. No, I was out of my ch- Just so you know, M, I was fiddling around with the log because I thought we were going to win that. You needed to get the celebration piece. I still got the chills.

Okay, so you, oh, verb. I'm not good with these. Was it a verb? No. You said domino. Now. I don't know if you can use it as a noun. Can you...

I don't know. That had a question. Yeah. You could chuck a domino at someone. You can do that. Can what? You can chuck a domino, but chuck with a bit of it. So chuck's the verb, right.

Okay. Okay. And you, and dead or alive, probably not a TV. Is it, is it, shall I go over to you? I know. I know we played it as a noun was. A radio. Mate, I've been doing it for three, four years. And to be honest, M, Denmark is a country, not a city. How did you get one, two, three?

Oh, Emma, but you weren't in league. You still were the best player we've had in 2026. Yo, seven, can I be honest, I think anyone that gets seven or above is, is worth a, is worth a bit of a clap. Because it's hard work, isn't it? It is hard work. Emma, thank you so much for joining the show. Oh, good.

Thanks, Dahl. Well, that was fun. That one hurt. That one, I feel that one a little bit. All right. Well, hey, back again tomorrow. Seven o'clock and eight o'clock. $10,000.

That's right. Each time. That's right. You got to get 10, though. You can't get seven. You can't get seven. Even nine won't cut it. Hey, you can get the golf club from seven.

Totally. But for the $10,000, we need 10 out of 10. This is Jess and Rowan. I forgot to tell you what happened to me on the way back from Melbourne last week. Talk to me. So I was like, okay, check my bag, checked it. But I didn't do it quite right on the check-in screen. And they said, do you want an exit row?

And I thought I hit the right button. I wanted an exit road, a bit of exit leg room. Great. You got $15 to spare? I'll pay the extra. Didn't even need it. They just offered it off the bat. I went, nice.

That's a win. Yeah, let me do the exit row. But I didn't do it right. So I had to call someone out and go, hey, would you mind just fixing this? Because I really want an extra. I thought, yeah, babe, don't worry. I said, thanks, darling. Is this on the kiosk?

So you're not dealing with a person. Yeah, exactly. I said, I know I'm annoying. Can you please come help? And she's like, that's fine. I help you out. And I was like, I know you've got bigger fish to fry, but can you just help me? She said, yes.

Anyway, I walk off to the plane. So excited. So excited. What's wrong? Where do you think this is going? I'm warwick. Okay. Well, so I go, get in there.

Tick it there. Cool. Got it. Go up there. Love it. About to board. Yeah, about the board. Hit the, you know, you put it over the scan and they go,

I was expecting... Hello, Mr Edwards. Thank you. Enjoy your flight. Yeah. Are you willing able... You know that? A quick...

Oh, yes, you have an Xero. Are you willing able to assist? Get the verbal confirmation? I was going to go. Yes, I am. Vanessa. Let's go. And she goes...

I will open that door. She goes... Oh, one second. How I go? Had I just stitched me up with this exit row? I didn't pay for it. It's all right, but... They're going to take it off me.

What's going on? Anyway, just got it. Didn't him really look. It said like, you know, Xros are normally like 14, 15. This one said like 26. Oh, okay. I was like, what? Anyway, go there.

And as I'm walking, I realize, oh, okay, so I haven't got an exit around anymore. Anymore. So you did. So I did. But upon buzzing in to actually board, she changed your seat. Well, I don't know if this lovely Vanessa did, but at some point, they changed it. Now, I get to the row 25C or something. Look in, some bloke's sitting in it.

I'm like, they've stitched me up. Now I've got to talk to more people. And I can't wait to start screaming on this plane. I'm not getting off. I'm going straight home, right? And I go, man, you're in my seat. This guy's a bigger dude, right? Important point.

Big guy. Not so big, but big that... It's worth noting. Not comfortable with the tray down kind of vibe. Big dude. Right? And I go, man, that's, um... That's me.

Like, you guys... So you've clocked that and gone, I still want him to move. I've gone, that's, that's me. I'm safe. I kind of wouldn't mind the window. I've, you know, been to the toilet, everything's great. We don't have the time, but I'll be superior. This is an hour flight.

Don't really care. I went, oh, okay. So now I'm pissed off about not getting the exit row and this guy. Is it in your same. And I don't, and I don't know why, but I said, do you normally not care about where you sit? Or is it cool? And he went, uh, I don't really, um, I don't really catch flights. I went, whatever, who cares?

And then I stop and go, why isn't this an exit row? And then so I flagged someone out, bing, someone comes down. I go, hey, I was meant to have an exit row. And she goes, interesting. Okay, let me have a look. Comes back and she goes, we just had to reweight the plane. Redistribute the weight. And I went, what do you mean?

So because now. And the fat guy next to me goes, that makes sense. I went, doesn't. I see, get it. No, no. So, I need to get a better later. He's in 25C, but you were meant to be in 25C. Clearly, I was meant to be in an exit row because I thought they put me on one.

And somewhere in the last hour of me getting a salad and getting on the plane, they've gone, we need to switch things up a bit and they've moved me. Do you think because this gentleman boarded? No. They've gone, well, we need to find a similar. I don't know what it is, but they've gone, let's get these two fatties on 25. Right? So then he goes, he goes, no, makes sense.

And I went, doesn't, fatso, like, you're kidding? And then, so I went, no worries, thanks, thanks. No worries, thanks. And then so I sit down. Because you should be opposite each other. Like if he's 25C, that ABC, D, F. You should be F. I looked up and I was like, well, who are the, who are the thin losers up the road on the exit road?

They're not going to be able to handle the door. Couldn't see him. I was like, all right, well, if you want these 50 kilo women to do it, that's fine, fine, fine, fine. I'll just sit here. How good are they going to be in an emergency? And then the thing comes over and I want a coffee. This guy couldn't get the tray down. I was like, I can.

Yep, I can to the tray down. Stop laughing. And then as she gets the coffee. I can't make this up. I'm furious. As this lady comes over for the coffee, the guy has decided to use no one sitting in the middle. It's just me and old mate.

And he uses the middle trails. I see, not only do you want to use my window seat, you're also using the middle tray. And then he taps me on the shoulder and goes, oh, bro, just use the middle one. As in, as in don't worry about being uncomfortable with the tray. Are you kidding? I've got a hack.

No more for a jack. We can use them. Don't tell me. I don't care for it. Big filler hack. Do you think he bought? No. So you're in A.

Yeah. He bought B. Do you reckon he bought B? He didn't care. He didn't care. My biggest problem was he was like, oh, this other fatty needs it. So maybe he can just use my minimum. It'll say we'll share, bro.

There's no sharing. Ken? Not interested. I thought you're meant to stick together. This is Jess and Rowan. We are currently in the middle of a renovation. And this renovation, like all renovations I have learned, has not stuck to any schedule. It's pretty standard, is it?

Whether that be time or monetary. I'm learning heaps from renovations, just from hearing your story. So am I, because I'm learning as we go. My husband is very well first. We had a very serious conversation the other night, Ron, about mental load. You might hear this phrase used a lot around parenting. Women, stereotypically, mothers,

often carry more of the mental load. Oh, I see where this is going. Whereas I had to sit down with my husband and apologise because I have carried none of the mental load with the Renault. Just that one, that one, that one. Oh, I like that one. I do a bit of good work with the kid, but with the Renault. Nothing.

All I do is create problems. He doesn't have much on his plate either. Like, he's got all the time. He's got he's got heaps of time to do it. He had to sit there yesterday and tell the electrician where we want power points. That's real. That is so important. That is so important.

Need on the right area. Otherwise your kettle and toasted don't mix. Yes. Yeah, but what I'm saying is that's above my pay grade. Like, he had to do that. So important. When he has. I don't even know if I should have said that because that took him away from his other 50 responsibilities.

But it's important. All I do, Rowan, is create problems. We have a meeting the other day with our wonderful woman doing our joinery. The joiner. Not a word I knew prior to renovation. Oh, yeah. Joinery means cabinets. Yeah, yeah.

Cubboards. Yeah, okay. And she's talking about the angle of a hinge, which way things should open. Smart. What's that mean? You know how you have a dishwasher? Yep. And maybe you can see that there's a dishwasher in your kitchen.

Or, yeah, she can build you a door that covers the dishwasher. I don't know. man, I think that's what it is. It doesn't look like you've got a dirty old, shiny, gross. Yeah, you can't see Bosch. You can just see nice cabinetry. All these things. And I'm relatively quiet in these meetings, Rowan, because I also realize I've played

no role. Who am I to have two cents? I'll let, I'll say, Rowan. I'll let Angus. Make some choices. Copper, everything. Make all the choices. And hopefully some economic choices.

Well, if anyone would, he would. Until our wonderful joinery lady talks about a desk. She's building this. bench desk situation in this studio apartment we're constructing. Lovely. And my ears prick up because I go, oh, the word desk is so dull. So boring. How do we jazz up a desk?

So my whole contribution to this 90-minute meeting was, Gemma, could you make a decorative leg on the desk? Angusigar, Christ. What am I doing here? I could hear. Why? Do I want a decorative leg? Because otherwise, it's just straight up and down.

No, no, talk to him about why the decorative leg would be so important where it is. Yeah, can I just feel like a plan on the desk? Doesn't that jazz it up? Well, that'll be on the desk. This is the leg of the desk. So, Jess, so she's basically talking that it's going all into, isn't it like bench? Bench into desk. You get it.

So one thing. Yeah. And there'll be one leg off the side of the desk. Because otherwise it's coming off the wall. Exactly. Why don't we have like a lovely piece of wood that's decorative? So obviously that's all function. You functioned in this can talk about the function.

What about my decorative leg? Rowan. You've nailed it. A Renault should be equal parts functionality and equal parts beauty. I don't think you really have a leg to stand on in this case, but like... You should have seen the look on my husband's face, our interior designer. And the wonderful Gemma. Three out of one. What did they say? I really appreciated Gemma. The joinery lady went, I can write that down.

And I think she pretended to write on her nose. I know that trick. Decritive. No, she wrote down. So what I've done now, I got her mobile number of her email signature, keep sending her decorative legs I come across. It's just legs after she's shaved. Maybe. Hey, Rowan, that's not a bad idea.

That's kooky. Can we fashion a piece of wood into like a human leg? You want like one of these? I love it. Ornate. Ornate. Interesting. See, that's better than just a straight up and down leg.

For everyone listening, they look like pool table legs. That's not really what we're thinking of. Oh, that's a nice. I've not given her that sort of example. You don't mind that? Just something, Rowan. Just something. What about a big Italian horse or something?

Just as a head. You're going to come to our next meeting because these are the ideas I didn't have at the time. More than happy to. Because I was met with blank stairs. They're just so often. And I don't mean some blank stairs because the stairs also could do with some jazzing up. This is Jess and Rowan. I'll be honest.

End of a very fun show today. Very fun. Our podcast lives on the listener app. if you did miss a minute, particularly shy guys. Grammys rap. If you're worried about heading to work or school today, not knowing what everyone's going to be talking about. Why didn't you do a rap rap?

Why didn't you break that? Because I guess doesn't like parody songs. Oh, me either. Good. Me either. It has been a fun show, namely, five minutes ago, we had a bit of a laugh about my most far-fetched idea

for our renovation. It's actually not that far-fetched. I showed you a great option on TEMU. You did show me. So I want a decorative. leg. Spin the wheel. Smart.

I want my joinery lady to design a decorative leg for a desk. Integrate a bench desk. Can we have some input via a wheel? Like you have, you pick some, we pick some ideas and whatever we spin it up. I don't hate that. As long as it's kooky.

I don't want straight up and down. We can figure out kooky. No, but shy guy will put straight up and down. No, next minute. Shy guy. We have a driving, we have a driving simulator in the studio apartment. Yeah.

Well, that's where you'll be saying if you ever want to come over, so you may as well. I live 10 minutes down the road. But on 048-8-18-1069, the text line is popping off, Rowan. Is it? Hey, Jess, it's Bo, your builder here. Oh, what up, Bo?

We must be on at the job site. What's up, baby? Currently building your on-sweet shower. Would you like a bench seat opposite the shower? It's currently a dead space in that cavity. Bo, can you make it interesting? Bo, I feel like you should ask Angus. Don't ask her, mate.

How decorative can we make a bench? Because I'd love a bench. Someone to pop your leg up when you're shaving. We'll just have a rest. Sit down in the shower. Bo, that's a great idea. Good idea, Bo. But I want a decorative.

Don't just give me straight. Talk to Angus. About all things related to changes. I'm happy about that because last time I just popped in on the site just to see things. Oh, yeah. I had the bloody competition on. And I went, oh, this is my property. You must not be playing another radio station.

That is a no-brainer. So, boys, if you're listening, I could pop in any time. You get new FM off. That one. Full government name. Are you kidding? Bo's a legend and a half and I love that. He's asked me about the bench.

That makes me feel included. All the boys sit around the construction side going, ha ha! I hope you've enjoyed Nikki Minaj and the Lady Marmalade. Oh, the boys would love that. Medley, we did. And then Robert, good friend of the show, Rob, who got in touch earlier and told me that he is still cooking two recipes

he inherited from an ex. Yes. What up, Rob? I said, I wanted to hear about the pasta dishes. He goes, I do a feduccini boscaola and a chicken and league pasta. What the hell is a boscaola? He's written them out for me. He goes, maybe with a Vigita.

Put one tablespoon in taste, but I like it salty. I'll put two. Rob, what a legend. Go on you, Rob. This is who is involved in our show, Rowan, and they're all in with a chance to win our cooker of the week prize. Oh, the cook of the week prize, too. Really good pro. Two nights stay in the Hunter Valley with our friends at Cyprus Lakes.

Oaks, Cyprus Lakes Resort. Yeah, breakfast and dinner. You get at the bistro, two rounds of golf. You get vouchers for the, for the, the wellness retreat. Mate, so Bo the builder. Bo the builder. Can he build it?

He can. Bo the builder will call Gussie. And Rob. You're all in with a chance and everyone else who got involved today. We appreciate him. Sorry, Boe. You actually can't win now because it's... Why?

Conflict of interest. You can't. There's no way Bo can win. Oh, because he knows me. If you didn't say he was a builder, he might... He might not pay. He might not pay the cheques. He doesn't sound like you're paying him for anything. Angus said we need more money from the bank.

And I was like, what's your problem? Catch Bose building now, down on one of the streets. I said, you know what my contribution was? How gross is this? Is that what you said? No, I said, do you want me to ask my dad? For what? Diva's walking in.

Yeah, actually, you should because he's got plenty of it. I said, I said, my birthday's in April. I could ask my dad for a cash birthday present. And he goes, I need it now, not in April. Can I believe? Can I get an advance, dad? Can I get an event? Chagotai, would you believe that Jen, is now going to get back?

cutting's vouchers for a birthday? I can believe it. If that gets me my decorative leg, I'll take it. All right. Back tomorrow, guys. Bye-bye. Bye-bye. That was the Jess and Rowan podcast.
