Nap Time: The Most Chaotic Dad Story We've Ever Heard

Mon, 06 Jul 2026

A viral video of a dad walking down the aisle alone at his daughter's wedding without her opened the floodgates. Ricki's own dad sat down in the front row at her Paris wedding and forgot he was supposed to walk her down the aisle. Listeners called in and it only got worse: a dad drove to his daughter's graduation without her, a grandad came home from the park with one of two grandkids and didn't notice, a dad of 22 years still can't spell his daughter's name, and one dad arrived at his wife's funeral without the ashes. Never put a dad in charge of anything. This is the conclusion.

Nap Time: Kylie Minogue Finally Admits What She Really Thought of the Singing Budgie Years

Sun, 05 Jul 2026

We're back live Monday July 13. Kylie Minogue calls in ahead of her Netflix documentary dropping tomorrow and it is everything. She talks about why it took years to say yes, how she finally felt okay enough in herself to let people behind the curtain, and what it was like reliving decades of archive footage. She is proud of her resilience above everything else, proud of taking risks even when they didn't work, and deeply done with the singing budgie era. The press back then was brutal and she had no platform to push back. Now she does. Her defining song: Love at First Sight because it has her DNA in it. We played it immediately.

Nap Time: How Tim Got Bali Belly For THREE YEARS!

Thu, 02 Jul 2026

We're back live Monday July 13. Ricki and Tim swapped Bali horror stories before discovering the island's newest trend is a 5:30am silent disco run, which sounds very different to the Bali most Aussies remember. That sparked stories from listeners, including Bron, who somehow beat a group of German tourists in a beer-sculling competition and spent the rest of her holiday being pointed at like a local celebrity. But the standout came from Jake, whose romantic villa getaway took a wild turn when a bat flew into the room, bounced off a ceiling fan and landed in his girlfriend's luggage. Twenty minutes later, a monkey turned up to finish the job, delivering what might be the most Bali story ever told.

Nap Time: He Asked for $38 Back After She Rejected a Second Date

Wed, 01 Jul 2026

We're back live Monday July 13. Sydney dating is rough and this story proves it. A man took a woman out for breakfast, she politely declined a second date, and he immediately asked her to transfer her half of the $38 bill. We get into the real question: who pays on a first date and what does it mean? Jermaine's theory is that whoever covers the bill is signalling there will be a next time. Listeners call in with their dating rules and one woman in Camden is absolutely eliminating men based on sunglass choice alone. Thin gold frames after dark? You are done before you started.

Nap Time: How to Find the First Song You Listened To on Spotify!

Tue, 30 Jun 2026

We're back live Monday July 13. Spotify celebrated its 20th anniversary and you can now deep dive your entire listening history. We go around the room: Ricki joined in March 2012 after Spotify came to her record label and basically begged artists to get on board, Tim joined in 2014 when his daughter was under one, and Sarah joined in 2020 which we did not see coming.
