Ricki‑Lee & Tim

We spun the wheel and played Word Alarm. The great soap bar debate: are they back or are they done forever? New Music Friday delivered as always. The President of the Australian Medical Association came in to explain peptides and why the ones being sold online with "not for human use" on the label are a problem, including that Tim's old GP turned out to be our expert which raised eyebrows. Insurance scammers called in and things got out of hand fast: fake bear attacks on luxury cars in California, a decade of stolen coffee stamps, and an unqualified vet nurse who has been running surgeries for seven years and nobody has noticed. And Jim Jefferies came in, was absolutely unhinged as expected, and somehow it came out that he has done opera. We need answers.

Three people in California got caught staging fake bear attacks on their own luxury cars to claim $142,000 in insurance money. They kept the bear suits. In the house. Detectives found them immediately. We open the phones for Sydney's own scammers and it escalated quickly: one listener negotiated a better insurance deal and kept the $350 signup bonus anyway, another has been working as an unqualified vet nurse for seven years doing surgeries with drugs of addiction and nobody knows, and a third has been stealing the coffee loyalty stamp from local cafes for a decade and stamping up the whole family. We have so many questions about the vet nurse.

Peptides are everywhere right now: weight loss, skin care, muscle recovery, tanning. We got the President of the Australian Medical Association Dr Danielle McMullen on the phone to explain what they actually are and why the ones being sold online are a problem. Short version: the approved ones prescribed by doctors are fine, but the unregulated ones sold online may have never been tested on humans, can cause cancer, blindness or kidney damage, and often say not for human use right next to the injection instructions. Also it turned out she used to be Tim's GP which raised more questions than it answered.

Tim has heard through very reliable channels that Sabrina Carpenter has four nights booked at Qudos Bank Arena in November. No official announcement yet but the dates are apparently sitting there waiting. For anyone who had their Sabrina set cut short when she was supporting Taylor Swift in bad weather, this is your redemption arc.

We spun the wheel and played the Whisper Challenge. NSW Premier Chris Minns dialled in and Ricki got into the contraceptive pill news. Matt Moran stopped by to tell us what to eat this week. Jake Gyllenhaal was spotted ordering Messina like a normal person and we respect it. Tim dropped the exclusive that Sabrina Carpenter has four nights booked at Qudos Bank Arena in November. A listener called in ahead of her reconstruction surgery tomorrow to reveal she asked her surgeon for Ricki's boobs, which Ricki is deeply honoured by. And Poh from MasterChef came in to play Quick Draw, talk the Meghan Markle MasterChef episode, and Tim finally told her the joke he has been holding onto for years: if Poh ever got together with Sandra Oh, her name would be Poh Oh.
