Gus and André come into the studio and have their breath stolen from them (a term coined by critic Priya Leigh) to discuss celebrity sightings including Jacob Elordi, Troye Sivan, and Jane Campion. Why are they all so...just like us? The two Buffs then enter a pitching contest between "Gangas" and "Etc Etc Etc..." - two compelling productions set deep inside the Nation's hole. Gus protects his right to not have a favourite Canberra song, while André celebrates Cate Shortland's 35mm screening of Somersault (2004) at the Australian Fyshwick, Telopea, and Roundabout School. Fights break out but the love games win.

Priya + Enoch introduce a new segment called Pitch Off where they compete for the best Sam Kerr Stan Original, do we love a blood soaked football rehearsal or are we headering in the direction of a bended love story? We wonder who will answer the call to be Lars Von Trier's new girlfriend, and who Florence Pugh gets her legal advice from before picketing.  In Spotlight Gus interviews Al Cossar, the artistic director of MIFF and gets some recs for MIFF Play, the festival's streaming service available now.
