Kate’s got her big soccer game coming up with The Menai Hawks and we are all pumped and ready to go.

Yesterday we took to our socials to get you guys to vote on what the banner should say and you did not disappoint with the results! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They’re both up for the Gold Logie so we thought why not put them head to head to try and win the competition that actually matters. Rap Battle. Please block your ears for the most horrific raps you’ll hear today from Andy Lee and Larry Emdur. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
