    RHOBH - REUNION PART 3 ALANA MCLEAN & MYSTERY GUEST

    Hi guys, and welcome back to TV Reload! Thanks for clicking or downloading today’s episode with Alana McLean. Who has been our ride-or-die all season long, serving up hot takes and wild speculation on Season 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. We’ve been teasing the idea of bringing in our partners and for this final reunion recap… one of them actually signed on. Let’s just say, we have one partner, one dog and a whole lot of opinions. As we wrap up the season. We’re diving into Part 3 of the reunion—although, full disclosure, this wasn’t exactly the grand finale we were hoping for. We’ll explain what left us underwhelmed, what we wanted to see and even offer up a few tips for Bravo on how to freshen things up for next year. There’s still a lot to unpack. While the ladies are still dancing to the same old tune? We are bringing our boldest takes yet. We’ll break down the fallout from Dorit baiting Sutton with that “Here she comes…” moment.  I get Alana’s thoughts on Garcelle’s dramatic goodbye, and speculate on what really might have been left on the cutting room floor. We’ll also touch on Kyle’s emotional revelations, Kathy Hilton’s surprise laughs, and our thoughts on a potential Jennifer Tilly return. Plus—Lisa Vanderpump rumours, Morgan Wade theories, and more than a few side-eyes. So grab a drink, get comfy, and join us as we say goodbye to RHOBH Season 14—there’s a lot to cover and plenty of tea to spill! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    RHOBH - RECAP - REUNION PART 2 - ALANA MCLEAN

    Hey guys, welcome back to TV Reload! Thanks for clicking play or downloading today’s episode with the fabulous Alana McLean—fresh from whitening her teeth and filling in on breakfast radio over in Perth. Now, Alana and I’s longest-running joke is all about those ‘90s McLean’s toothpaste commercials—I think it was Colgate? Which is related to her phenomenal and unmissable smile. Funny story: we once did a photoshoot together for a breakfast show that legit looked like a Colgate commercial because our teeth were that good. Maybe I’ve just found our next sponsor? Today, we’re diving into Part 2 of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14 Reunion. Alana texted me saying it was “all killer, no filler”… and weirdly, I kinda disagreed. As I had a major issue with this part of the reunion, which we’ll get into. There’s a lot to unpack—and for once, we’ve shelved the booze. After sounding like two bingo-playing grandmas in the last two episodes, we decided to keep it sober and sharp for this one. And honestly? It was a novelty. We’ll cover Kathy Hilton and Jennifer Tilly’s guest appearances, and spoiler alert—my negative reaction to this episode is very much connected to their involvement.  I’ll get Alana’s take on Andy Cohen’s surprisingly bold line of questioning for Kyle Richards, and why holding her feet to the fire really made this episode sing. We’ll also touch on PK and Kyle’s unexpected friendship, and the silence in the room when Andy asked if the ladies supported “text gate.” You’ll hear all about Garcelle and Sutton’s return from the green room, and how Dorit baited Sutton into dropping yet another iconic line. And yes—feel free to take a shot every time Alana says “here she comes.” Finally, we’ll each rate this weeks episode and throw in some predictions for what’s coming next week. So, sit back and relax as we unpack the drama, the glam, and the chaos of RHOBH Season 14! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    MARSHALL HAMBURGER - AUSTRALIAN IDOL - CHANNEL SEVEN

    Hey guys, welcome back to TV Reload! Thanks so much for clicking play or downloading today’s episode—especially because it’s a special one. I’m joined by none other than the winner of Australian Idol 2025… Marshall Hamburger. This season was stacked with talent, and it showed—the show grew its ratings by 14% compared to last year. That’s huge, especially considering the stiff competition from MAFS and Australian Survivor. I was lucky enough to grab Marshall for a quick debrief just days after his big win. Now, I’ll be honest—I had a soft spot for Iilysh, and my partner was backing Gisella—but I’ve got to say, Marshall is a worthy winner. I’m already hanging out for his debut album. In our chat, Marshall opens up about the moment Gisella was eliminated, what it felt like to actually win, and how much his parents influenced his journey into music.  We’ll also get into his love for all things ’80s—was that authentic or something shaped by producers to build a narrative? Plus, we dive behind the scenes: what was the vibe really like among the Top 12? Did he get the judges’ mobile numbers? How can we support his music now, and what’s coming up for him in the next few months? There’s loads to unpack with plenty of insider revelations, so sit back and relax as we dive into the wonderful world of Australian Idol, ahead of its big grand finale this Sunday night.

    RHOBH - RECAP - REUNION PART 1 - ALANA MCLEAN

    Hi guys, and welcome back to TV Reload! Thanks for clicking or downloading today’s episode with the fabulous Alana McLean—who, let’s be real, is basically our halftime show “at the Super Bowl.” As we wait for more reunion episodes to drop.  As you all know, Housewives reunions are the Super Bowl of reality TV, and Alana is my personal Beyoncé. We’re diving deep into Part 1 of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14 reunion. Now, full disclosure: I’ve been battling a little flu this week and may or may not have been on some strong meds, and genuinely thought this episode was a rip-roaring success.  To me, nothing felt stale—it was all super engaging. But whether Alana agrees… well, you’ll have to listen in to find out. There’s a lot to unpack—so we’ve poured another drink, I’ve grabbed a box of hot chips, and yes… I may be leaning a little too hard into the Super Bowl snack metaphor. We’re covering everything—from the ladies’ reunion looks and the set design, to Erika’s wild comment about her dress being from a “random designer.”  I’ll be getting Alana’s take on Garcelle’s downfall, as we watched her go from holding that diamond to throwing it right back at Bravo face — in real time. We’ll break down PK’s statement, Dorit’s surprising dominance at the reunion, and the slew of face-offs: Dorit vs Garcelle, Garcelle vs Kyle, Erika vs Garcelle, and Sutton cozying up to Kyle while leaving Garcelle hanging.  By the end of this episode, you might have a bit of whiplash from the downfall of Twitter’s favourite Housewife. Plus, we’ll preview next week’s reunion and hand out our episode rankings. There’s so much to discuss—and even more insider tea to spill—so sit back, relax, and join us as we unpack the wild world of RHOBH Season 14! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    LOGAN - AUSTRALIAN SURVIVOR - BONUS WEEK 7- NETWORK 10

    Hi everyone, and welcome back to TV Reload! Thank you for clicking or downloading today’s episode, featuring Logan, who absolutely deserves the chance to unpack her  experience on Australian Survivor: Brains vs. Brawn 2. Making it all the way to week 7 in one of the least predictable seasons I can remember.  Myles threw it out there, that Logan was an emotional player during the season but we are going to dissect if there is a difference between being an emotional person and an emotional Survivor player.   Logan will speak to the fans reactions that ‘going to rocks’ was mentioned way too many times for that to be a coincidence.  In this episode, Logan breaks down exactly what was going through her mind as she watched back her demise and reveals why she was brought to tears.   Logan will share her thoughts on the remaining players in the competition and which player is a completely different person in real life.. I’ll ask Logan about the reception to her being a sassy player. If her experiences in WAG life actually helped her game. Plus, her rational on 'the covern' and a simple explanation on why that original alliance fell apart! There’s so much to discuss, with plenty of behind-the-scenes revelations. So sit back, relax, and let’s dive into the incredible world of Australian Survivor, which returns this Sunday night! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    WILLIAM, JAKE & JAYMON - AUSTRALIAN IDOL - CHANNEL SEVEN

    Hey guys, welcome back to TV Reload! Thanks so much for clicking on today’s episode—you’re in for a good one. I’m chatting with William, Jake, and Jaymon, the latest three contestants to be eliminated from Australian Idol, which means… yep, the grand finale is happening this Sunday night! I’m so pumped. The competition is seriously fierce this year. Jake has been one of the best country singers I can remember, and Jaymon? Just the sweetest soul with a heart of gold. Honestly, I’m still processing this week’s result—it was a tough one to watch with Williams being chopped at the final hurdle. I know a few of you had him as a favourite.    Quick reminder: don’t forget to vote! This is it—it’s all in our hands now. I’d honestly be thrilled if Iilysh, Marshal, or Gisella takes it out. But before we crown a winner, we’ve got the bittersweet task of saying goodbye to our top 6 eliminates. William chats with me about discovering a love for swing music and what he thinks his debut album could sound like. Jake gets real about being the oldest contestant, the songs he wanted to sing but couldn’t, and how his tour might look very different from what we’ve seen on the show. Jaymon opens up about going head-to-head with Gisella, and what was really going through his mind during that emotional elimination moment. We’ve got backstage stories, emotional reflections, and some big reveals about their standout performances—so sit back, get comfy, and let’s dive into the world of Australian Idol, with the finale just around the corner!

    Hi everyone, and welcome back to TV Reload! Thank you for clicking or downloading today’s episode, featuring Australian Idol host Scott Tweedie. This Sunday night, we’ll see our Top 6 take the stage in what I’d call a very tight six-horse race to the Idol crown! Scott has joined me each year to chat about Australia’s longest-running singing competition, and today, he’s bringing some exclusive backstage insights. What better time to have him on the podcast than right before the Top 6 finalists battle it out? In this episode, Scott shares his favourite performances from each of the remaining artists and reveals what these contenders are really like behind the scenes. Tweedie also opens up about the future of the show and why this year’s judging panel is a lock moving forward. Of course, I couldn’t resist digging into Scott’s personal life—so we’ll also chat about why he’s still single, especially after rumours that Ricki-Lee has been working overtime to find him a wife! You’ll hear everything from Scott’s most famous matches on Raya, what he insists on having stocked in his dressing room, and even the hilarious texts his mum sends him after each show. There’s so much to cover, with plenty of behind-the-scenes revelations. So sit back, relax, and get ready as we dive into the world of Australian Idol, returning this Sunday night!

    Hey everyone! Welcome back to TV Reload! Thanks for clicking or downloading today’s episode, where I’m joined by Alana McClean—the ultimate gossip queen, our very own Real Housewife of Western Australia and the friend who delivers measured opinions… even after unmeasured amounts of alcohol (always drink responsibly!). This week, we’re diving deep into Episode 17 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14—the season finale! And let’s be real, the title “Caribbean Send-Off” couldn’t be more fitting. It seems to be a nod to Garcelle, who makes her final appearance. That shocking little tidbit dropped this week, and honestly, I’m pretty disappointed. There’s a lot to unpack, and yes, we may have poured ourselves a glass (or two) to get through all the drama. Here’s what’s on the agenda: The importance of not mocking, mimicking, or impersonating your friends—where do we draw the line? Alana’s take on Garcelle’s exit and the farewell video she posted on Instagram. What this finale tells us about next season—who’s still standing, and which friendships are on shaky ground? Resolutions and reactions as Bravo ties up the season: Kathy Hilton tickling in the sand and we get excited for our super bowl the reunion. Which drops next week. With so many insider revelations, you won’t want to miss this breakdown of the RHOBH Season 14 finale. So sit back, relax, and let’s get into it! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
