Promo to be broadcast on Tuesday, 28 October, highlighting the Great Get Cereal Water Fight of 2014.

I was invited to play in a special curtain-raiser basketball match by the Mount Gambier Pioneers (who went on to become the 2014 SEABL Champions, mind you) in support of NAIDOC Week. The story arc would have culminated on Friday night, with the basketball match taking place at the Icehouse (the Mount Gambier Basketball Stadium) before the Pioneers' match, with me matched up against 5SE's Jase Scheidl. Unfortunately, I never got to play. For the record, the team I would have been on went on to win, so... y'know... think of how much more we would have won by had I been playing!

We staged an intervention for Jess because she brought a smoothie to work in a jar. (Originally broadcast June 4, 2014 on 96.1 Star FM Limestone Coast.)

I thought doing a traffic update segment was a good idea. I was way wrong. (Originally broadcast May 5, 2014 on 96.1 Star FM Limestone Coast.)

Jess and Ti speak with MasterChef judge George Calombaris ahead of the MasterChef 2014 Season Premiere. He managed to give me some cooking advice *and* some life advice: "keep it fresh, keep it simple". (Originally broadcast May 5, 2014 on 96.1 Star FM Limestone Coast.)

There's one thing that our boss Mick does that really gets to Jess. Jess decided to vent about it... and then things got VERY awkward! (Originally broadcast May 28, 2014 on 96.1 Star FM Limestone Coast.)

Someone anonymously asked the idolthreat team if Tyla had ever listened back to earlier episodes of the show. So we went looking...

A game of Know Your Herald Sun Issues with James Blake and Tim Weber

Beck Russo explains to myself and Michael Lamonato the plot of Breaking Dawn. In Beck's words: "what the actual eff!"

After we got talking about names on the show this morning, Ti's dad, John Butler (not that one), got on the phone to explain exactly how my name came about. You might not expect the result...

A highlight from the idolthreat podcast: Luke, Ti and Josh discuss how sad Adele makes every episode of The X Factor.

Josh is going to songwriting camp this week! Bron came up with some ideas his band could write a song about... like allergies!

I'll acknowledge that this isn't exactly the most mature piece of audio, and that it does nothing for my reputation as a media professional. Oops.
