Leisel’s still away, but Spida's imagination is definitely not. Today he’s convinced she’s trading Olympic gold for a pair of boxing gloves and stepping into the ring with Paul Gallen. Is it true? Probably not. But is it wildly entertaining? Absolutely. Meanwhile, Joolz rolls in late again, looking like a human highlighter, and the team dives headfirst into building their dream burgers. From Liam’s chip medley and Spidas questionable “alpinos” to Liams spicy mayo obsession, it’s enough to make you hungry and concerned. Then it’s all about those misheard lyrics you’ve been belting out wrong for years. Think “Hold me close, I’m tired of dancing” or “We built Knox City with sausage rolls.” Listener Rod even rewrote an entire Green Day song as a tribute to Shane Warne, and honestly… it slaps.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It all goes down in Sydney tonight. Sonny Bill Williams steps back into the ring for his long awaited bout against fellow footy star turned boxer Paul Gallen. There's no lost love between the pair, who have been wanting to fight for nearly a decade. Williams told Heather du Plessis-Allan that hate is a strong word to describe their dynamic, but the animosity between them is definitely real. He says that he's not generally a trash talker, but if someone's going to keep pushing, eventually you're going to push back. “I don't consider it trash talk, I kind of just spoke some truth, and I think with this bloke, every fight he's had, he's made it personal,” he told du Plessis-Allan. “But the reality is, all I've done is spoken some truths back and I think it's riled him up quite a bit.” Williams says the bout can't come quick enough.

Paul Gallen is speaking out after things got heated between him and Sonny Bill Williams ahead of their high-profile match in Sydney. The pre-fight press conference initially saw both fighters seemingly ready to skip the verbal jabs in exchange for the in-ring shots on Wednesday. However, the latter stages saw Gallen accuse Williams of drug use - and for charging large sums for his community work. Gallen says he can't see himself breaking bread with Sonny Bill after the fight, but 'that's life'. "There's no acting going on at all - we don't like each other."
