Australia are reeling from their stunning nine-wicket defeat to Bangladesh in Darwin, but is it really the worst loss in Test history? Menners breaks down the fallout from the defeat, the pressure on Marnus Labuschagne and Jake Weatherald, and the selection questions facing Australia ahead of the second Test in Mackay. He also discusses Pat Cummins' frustration with the top order, Nathan Lyon's future, the need to regenerate the Australian side and whether Cooper Connolly could be part of the next generation.

Bangladesh have produced one of the biggest upsets in Australian Test cricket history, defeating Australia by nine wickets in Darwin to take a 1-0 series lead. Menners reflects on Bangladesh's remarkable performance, Mahedi Hasan's five-wicket haul and Hassan Mahmud's nine wickets, while Cameron Green's century provides Australia's only real positive from a disastrous Test. The big question now is what happens to Australia's top order. Should Jake Weatherald and Marnus Labuschagne be dropped? Is it time for Matt Renshaw to return? And does Nathan Lyon deserve to retain his place? Menners also asks whether this defeat is simply a shock one-off — or the beginning of a major turning point for an ageing Australian side.

Menners reviews a remarkable day of Test cricket, as Bangladesh extended their first-innings lead to 228 before Australia finished on 4-161, still trailing by 67 runs. Josh Hazlewood claimed his 300th Test wicket and finished with 6-89, while Bangladesh showed remarkable patience with the bat, led by centuries from Tanzid Hasan and valuable contributions from Shanto and Mehedi Hasan. Australia's top-order problems continued, with Jake Weatherald, Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne all failing, leaving Cameron Green and Alex Carey to give Australia a glimmer of hope heading into Day 4.

This week on Menners Masterclass, we revisit one of my all-time favourite interviews — a classic conversation with Shane Watson, originally recorded in 2022. Watson reflects on a remarkable career that spanned multiple eras of cricket, from the dominance of Australia's golden generation through to the rise of T20 leagues and the IPL. He opens up on the challenges that shaped him — injuries, pressure, and the mental battles that impacted his consistency — while also sharing the lessons that allowed him to thrive later in his career. A major theme throughout is mindset. Watson candidly explains how not understanding mental skills early on held him back, and how learning to manage mental energy and “get out of his own way” unlocked his best performances toward the end of his career. Along the way, he shares stories from Ashes campaigns, World Cup wins, and the intensity of franchise cricket, as well as advice for the next generation navigating modern pressures like social media. A thoughtful, honest, and insightful conversation — and a standout episode from the archive.

The Rush Hour Melbourne Catch Up - 105.1 Triple M Melbourne - James Brayshaw and Billy Brownless
Billy and the Rush Hour team have driven down to JB's holiday house in Port Fairy... but they haven't quite arrived in time for the start of the show! Once Billy does get there, he kicks us off with the All Sports Report, then Mitch Cleary calls in from Sturt's training ground with the latest AFL headlines. Nine iconic Australian sounds have been inducted into the National Film and Sound Archive, so we've got a couple of our own sounds to nominate. Then JB has spotted a Brownless schedule-clash in the paper. Billy got bored during the road trip so he called up another radio station to get on air, then Boody and Adam battle it out for a chance at $10k with the Hump day Quiz. Billy has some last minute footy news - including some big ins at GWS, then Adelaide's unofficial Mayor Mark Ricciuto calls in with some tourism tips. Finally, Billy has a car wash joke and a sick bird joke to close the show.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This episode of The Rizzuto Show is a masterclass in overconfidence, poor decisions, and somehow… peanut butter and jelly becoming the most heated debate of the day.It kicks off with the universal lie we've all told ourselves: “I can fix that.” One YouTube video later and suddenly you're at the hardware store dropping hundreds of dollars on tools you'll use exactly once—before calling a professional anyway. The crew shares their own DIY disasters, including half-finished repairs, plumbing nightmares, and the sacred tradition of yelling “hold the flashlight” while nobody holds it correctly. It's relatable. It's painful. It's exactly why this is a funny podcast.Then, like all great conversations, things take a hard left turn into peanut butter and jelly territory. Not just a casual mention—no, this becomes a full-blown breakdown of flavors, techniques, bread choices, and whether Uncrustables are a gift to humanity or a pre-packaged cry for help. Grape vs. strawberry. Homemade vs. store-bought. Crunchy vs. smooth. And somehow, Captain Crunch enters the chat like it belongs there.Just when you think things can't get more ridiculous, the crew dives into Match Up With Moon, where trivia questions expose just how confident—and wildly incorrect—everyone can be. From tool brands to planet rotations to Apple slogans that absolutely no one gets right, it's a beautiful disaster of guesses, second-guessing, and full-on chaos. The kind of chaos that makes this a funny podcast worth coming back to every day.By the end, you'll have learned nothing useful about DIY, way too much about PB&J preferences, and witnessed a trivia round that spirals into complete nonsense. In other words, a perfectly normal episode of this funny podcast.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.71-year-old Massachusetts school bus driver fired after allegedly urinating inside bus with students on boardParents Are Yelling One Name to Stop Tantrums—and it's WorkingSTANK KITTY Nail Tech Had To Tell Client The Smell Wasn't Her Feet… It Was Her 'Hello Kitty' That Hadn't Seen Soap In DaysNational Film and Sound Archive of Australia Adds ‘Succulent Chinese Meal' GuyMeet Sunflare, the New Apple That Could Rival HoneycrispHershey says it will shift back to classic Reese's recipe after backlashCheez-It Brand Celebrates 100 Years With Limited Cheez-Itennial CakesMissouri police officer hailed as a hero for saving driver from burning carEmbarrassed by that old Gmail username you have?
