Fitzy, Wippa & Kate

Fitzy has held onto this story the whole holidays until our first day back because it’s that good. It seems in the Fitzgerald household the gift giving was not up to it’s usual standard with Hewie and Lenny stuffing up gift giving to each other but also Fitz. You’ll never guess the hilarious gift Fitz had to put a brave face on for.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wippa is taking hair meds because he’s starting to lose the hair on his head, but the side effects mean the hair grows literally everywhere and now he looks like a full on mammoth. We’re talking back hair, leg hair, chest hair, finger hair. Plus we give an update on Alex Cullen’s depature from Channel Nine and reveal how Wip stopped a creepy guy taking photos of girls at the beach.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Robbie Williams is never a boring chat. We somehow got off topic and started talking to him about Wippa’s insanely hairy body and Robbie brought up he’d like to dread lock it for him. Never change Robbie.   Better Man is in cinemas now with its incredible soundtrack available too!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Oh no. Fitz has admitted he tried his first vape over the Christmas holidays in Thailand after having a few pina coladas. He also said he saw monkeys in his room eating fruit in the middle of the night? Sounds a bit like Leonardo DiCaprio’s The Beach if you know what we mean... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kate put Fitzy and Wippa’s memories to the test, and let’s just say the results were less genius and more goldfish. Find out who came out on top and who forgot literally everything. Hint: the person you think might've lost this, is definitely the person who lost this.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Bring your kid to work day” sounds cute… until it isn’t. We often are lucky enough to have Fitz, Wip and Kate’s beautiful kiddies in the office with us and they are nothing but perfect little angels... Or are they? We share stories of kids wreaking havoc in the workplace. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

But before that, we talk hygiene and discuss if you would share roll-on deodorant and any other hyigene products. Kate is almost brought to tears as we talk to one of her heroes, Kate Winslet & finally we reveal who would take the award for one of the worst people ever.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gaming? Fishing? Extreme train-spotting? We reveal the hobbies that might have your dates running for the hills – and some of them are seriously unexpected. For example, Fitz’s extreme love of footy or Kate’s extreme love of tea towels seriously gives us the ick. Don’t even get us started on Wippa. Wippa as a whole is just an ick in itself.   Kidding ily!  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From across the globe to right here in our studio – Kate’s biggest fan made the ultimate trek from the UK to meet their idol! Meet the wonderful Terry who we put to the test in the ultimate Kate Ritchie quiz against Kate herself. So who knows Kate better? Kate or Tezza? This one’s guaranteed to warm your heart! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A sneaky nap? A long lunch break? Tradies have been busted slacking off in some hilarious ways, and Wip has the best story to prove it. It involves taking a massive dump in the family home. Loves it.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The text, the infamous Sex & The City post-it note (IYKYK), or just a ghosting? Breakups are never fun, but how they happen can be downright brutal. We share some of the funniest, weirdest, and saddest stories of how people knew it was over. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They cheated, so you cheated back? Is it fair game and the ultimate revenge, or stooping too low? We unpack the messy world of revenge cheating and whether it ever solves anything (spoiler: probs not aye). See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Remember when running away seemed like the ultimate power move as a kid? We share the funniest and most dramatic stories of childhood “escapes” – from making it as far as the driveway to the bold few who got to the next suburb. Spoiler: most of them didn’t pack snacks and had to turn back. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

To post or not to post? That’s the question when your partner wants veto power over your social media. Is this fair game or a serious relationship red flag??? If Fitzy, Wippa or Kate ever asked our social media person not to post something we’d be like nah bro soz!  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We sit down with Kate and ask her all the questions you guys want to know and sent in via our socials! It’s truly the best time to be EduKated on Kate Ritchie herself. From if she’d ever return to Home & Away, what her daughter Mae thinks of her Mummy being famous, and what it’s really like working with Fitz & Wip – Kate bares all in this special episode! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is there ever an excuse for cheating? Some people say they had no choice or it wasn’t their fault. We explore the wild reasons people blame their partners for their bad decisions and ask: Could this be the worst excuse ever? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Flowers and chocolates are great, but some people take “I love you” to strange new levels. We go through some of the weirdest, most over-the-top, and downright bizarre ways people express their affection. For example, Wippa thinks his love language is complaining. We’ve had enough of that mate.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Clickbait strikes again! Fitzy fell for a Facebook scam, and his wallet paid the price. He shares what happened so you don’t make the same mistake – and trust us, it’s as painful as it is funny. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A relaxing massage? Not for Wippa. What started as a simple attempt to unwind quickly turned awkward, painful, and absolutely hilarious. We absolutely love this cringe-worthy tale of relaxation gone wrong. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Santa’s watching,” “this food is too spicy for you,” and “the Wi-Fi’s broken.” We’ve all told kids a harmless fib or two, but some parents take it to the next level. We unpack the funniest lies we’ve all told and why sometimes, a little lie goes a long way. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Producer Jess is our host and we’re playing a game of ‘Who Said That?’ We guess who said what crazy line from the show last year out of Fitz, Wip and Kate and some of them are more surprising than we think. How many can us producers get right? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The comedian, author, and all-around funny guy David Walliams joined us, and things got extremely R rated. From laugh-out-loud stories to moments we can barely believe, this is one interview you won’t want to miss. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The texts, the weird excuses, the sudden new “gym schedule.” We share the biggest red flags when it comes to cheating and reveal how people really caught their partners in the act. Spoiler alert: It’s never subtle. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Playgrounds are out – vaping corners are in. We tackle the bizarre rise of schools creating “vaping zones” and ask: Are we helping, or just making things worse? Parents, you’re going to want to hear this. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The weight-loss drug that’s got everyone talking – but is it getting out of hand? We unpack the growing obsession with Ozempic, the people hooked on it, and whether the hype is worth it (or just a sign we all need to relax). See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ozempic is officially banned next year! Plus we might have to all agree it’s officially time to say goodbye to the return of mullets – it’s time to say goodbye to the trends we didn’t even ask for. We look back at 2024’s strangest fashion, food, and lifestyle crazes that definitely won’t make it into next year. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

So of course, Oli gets the award for worst and most annoying team member! Just kiddddding, we love each other all very much. We’re going through some of the best moments from the year and handing out awards to the biggest complainer, the worst idea that made it to air, the best burn, and the best listener. Could it be you? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Sure, you can borrow it!” Famous last words. We share stories of borrowing gone so wrong, from shattered to dented to stinky. What happens next? The awkward “hey, so…” conversation. Loves it.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You know that awkward moment when someone thinks they’ve ended the call... but they haven’t? We dive into the most shocking, hilarious, and downright cringeworthy things people accidentally overheard after the phone was supposed to go silent. Warning: you’ll think twice before hanging up! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you work in a bakery, you smell like bread. A mechanic? Oil and grease. But some jobs leave… well, unique scents behind. For example, we all leave here smelling like Kate’s Manuka honey and Fitz and Wip’s B.O every day. We chat about the unmistakable smells of work, and why some people’s careers are truly written all over them (or at least in their scent). See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Santa’s not the only one putting in a shift on Christmas! We are live, full of festive chaos, and ready to bring the holiday laughs straight to your ears. Forget the leftover ham – this is the perfect way to kick back and enjoy the big day with us. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tinsel? Check. Lights? Check. Bad vibes? Oh, definitely check. Wip shares the most horrifying story about how he found something DEAD in his Christmas tree and all of us wanna vom. Is it cursed, or just a tree with a bad attitude?  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Merry Chrissy from your fave off air team!! Us producers go through the naughtiest and nicest members of the team and what exactly what it was that they did to deserve those rankings. From Wippa not making Lizzie coffees, to Kate’s lovely gifts for Jess, we are well and truly spilling the tea about what really goes on around here! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We all know that person. They swear it’s “better for their skin” or “natural,” but let’s be real – they smell like they wrestled a bin. We dive into the dirty details of why some people avoid showers and share stories that’ll make you grateful for soap and water. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It’s a trip down memory lane as Kate reunites with Aussie country music legend Troy Cassar-Daley!

Betrayal, drama, and a plot twist no one saw coming – we dive into the wildest, messiest, and most jaw-dropping cheating story ever shared by a caller on our show. Buckle up – it’s a rollercoaster of bad decisions! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We love this man and he’s here to co-host today’s episode in his Lululemon undies!! Wip’s got his on too but no one cares about that. Plus we’re all things BOTCHED. We love a good plastic surgery story gone wrong and also when they go right. Anyone seen Lindsay Lohan at the moment? Slay.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Because that’s what we all want right? We’ve got the ultimate list of how to make that certain someone in your life obsessed with you over the holiday season and hopefully give you a little smooch under the mistletoe!! Plus we’ve got a hilarious story on what not to in a relationship and Wip definitely needs to take some notes.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kate, Lizzie and Jess are rounding out 2024 with a pop culture quiz. Has Kate been listening as we've EduKated her this year? How many can you get right listening at home? Enjoy! Love the EduKate girlies X See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It’s the final Producer Pod of the year (before we dive into our special Christmas episodes) and we are ripping into each other! We’re all existing on 3 hours sleep and are spreading the hate around. Just jokes, we really love each other and have had a great year and are sharing some of our fave moments together.   P.S Oli stop eating Lizzie’s cashews.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you’ve been unlucky enough to have to dabble in dating apps, you know how heinous it is. From fish photos, to people lying about their height and age, it’s truly the worst. Kate shares some of the hilariously bad experiences had on dating apps.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're taking an emotional and hilarious walk down memory lane and reflecting on everything we've done this year so far. We'd forgotten half this stuff to be honest, but listening back we want to thank you for the best year ever and all of the moments we shared together. Here's our 2024 in review! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ever noticed how certain family members magically "forget" their wallets when it’s time to chip in for Christmas lunch?  Aunt Carol’s bringing that fruitcake no one eats, while Uncle Greg’s conveniently ‘in charge of jokes.’ We’ve got one final Riddle Time for you and it is our best YET – Wippa made us write that.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fitzy has been obsessed with something super niche and weird in Sydney. And no it’s not the Adelaide Crows. He couldn’t wait to tell us about his latest interest and to be honest at this time of year it was hard for us to even be remotely interested. Bless him.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Still struggling on what to get your family members for Christmas? Kate’s got the best gift rec EVER that will provide hours and hours of fun. If you can’t detect our sarcasm then it’s clearly been a big year for you.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Oh to be Hamish Blake. Our old mate revealed that the only work he does in a year is about two months of work and then gets to relax and vibe out. Sign us up to be the host of Lego Masters any day.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is this too mean of us? We’ve got another round of pros and cons up our sleeves and with each one that passes by we are getting more and more ruthless. Today we decided our caller should break up with her partner because he shaves his legs. Are we too mean?! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Okay well then we’re all getting fired because who isn’t stressed at this time of year?!??! This is the most insane story ever we almost can’t believe it’s real. Plus we go through the top Google searches of 2024 and guess who the most googled celeb was?! It’s not Wippa even though he might think so.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’ve all seen and heard of Michael Usher’s incredibly awkward and terrible interview with Duchess of York’s Sarah Ferguson. But what we haven’t heard is what happened after and Michael finally spoke out about it this morning in an exclusive. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Everyone loves Bec Hewitt, and earlier in the week Kate let it slip that the Hewitt’s keep their Christmas tree up all year because Bec is too lazy to take it down. Bec came in hot this morning to fight back on those claims and we love her for it.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
