    Hey Willie, What's Those Troosers For?

    It’s peak Silly Season in newsrooms up and down Great Britain, which might explain why we’ve had another flurry of stories about a man who refuses to wear a skirt.

    Not just any man, mind you, but William, Prince of Wales. And not just any old skirt, but a kilt, the iconic plaid wrap beloved of Highland warriors—and an increasing number of Lowlanders and sports fans claiming a distant Caledonian connection.

    It’s classic Silly Season fodder: Grown Man Won’t Wear Kilt. And yet, I can’t help but think there’s something more to it than that. Not a full-blown constitutional conundrum exactly, but a pointer for the kind of monarch William wants to become.

    Karl Stefanovic is free! To delete the podcast he made in the name of free speech

    It is surely one of the greatest hustles of our time – the way that podcast bros declare themselves freedom of speech warriors. Karl Stefanovic attempted this swindle on Friday, when, having been sacked from the Today show, he declared himself “free”.

    When Stefanovic accepted the Logie for most popular television personality in 2011, he paid tribute to legendary political journalist Laurie Oakes.

    “He’s the reason why I’m in this business and why I want to be in this business of journalists for the rest of my life,” Stefanovic said.

    But Woodward or Bernstein he ain’t. On the contrary, he has undermined the sort of excellent journalism of which he is incapable – notably exposés, in this newspaper, of neurosurgeon Charlie Teo, and accused war criminal Ben-Roberts Smith.

    It's 1972 and two shy but gifted 20-year-old New Zealanders have locked themselves away with their guitars and a strong creative impulse.

    "We wrote two songs in one night in this little flat we shared in Auckland, and they were gold to us," Tim Finn, one of those young men, tells Double J's Karen Leng.

    Tim Finn joins Karen Leng on Double J to talk about getting Split Enz back together, reuniting for their first Australian shows in over 15 years.

    It’s been a long wait, but this reunion gig did not disappoint

    Nostalgia acts are supposed to take you back to a specific time in your life, but Split Enz disbanded in 1984, before I was born, so I guess I am nostalgic for my entire life. Their music permeated every inch of my upbringing in Aotearoa New Zealand, and this reunion tour, their first in almost 20 years, didn’t disappoint.

    The band takes the stage under the cover of a golden cloth. Out burst four early members of the Split Enz and two newer recruits, all dressed in outrageous two-piece suits. On the stage there is double everything: two percussionists, two pianists, two guitarists, two brothers, in an ever-rotating musical arrangement that demonstrates the extraordinary capabilities of everyone in the band.

    Always one step ahead, the new wave innovators are not done yet – and their hair is bigger than ever

    Many things can kill you in the music business. For Split Enz, New Zealand’s first internationally successful rock group, the most lethal poison was hairspray – or it should have been. “How did I not die?” marvels bandleader Tim Finn, whose head – at its vertiginous peak – resembled an upturned paintbrush.

    Sitting next to him, percussionist Noel Crombie grins as Finn continues the story. “Noel would lacquer merciless amounts of this toxic spray … the makeup would start to run but the hair would just somehow … sit there.”

    After all these decades, Split Enz still has the magic

     Split Enz’s Stuff and Nonsense is among my favourite songs. But it is the song of a young man, a 27-year-old Tim Finn.

    “I can give you the present, I don’t know ‘bout the future. That’s all stuff and nonsense.”

    The lyrics reveal a man uncertain of himself and of what will happen next. It is a song of nervousness about where things will end up. Listening to the song now on Spotify, and you hear the fear in Tim Finn’s vocals. 

    Forty-seven years later, and on stage in real life, he has lived that life. Split Enz ended, Tim went solo, his little brother’s band Crowded House went global, and he is now approaching the other end of an illustrious career in music.

    ‘It was a weird, weird time’: How a ‘loudmouth larrikin’ won Australian Survivor

    After 45 days in the Samoan jungle, a brutal four-hour and seven-minute endurance challenge, and a shock Tribal Council backstab, Caleb Beeby was voted winner of Australian Survivor: Redemption. The 29-year-old truck driver from South Gippsland in Victoria tells national TV editor Louise Rugendyke about his beef with fellow contestant Jackson Goonrey, the maggots in camp, and how he’s spending his $500,000 prize money.

    Congratulations Caleb! How did it feel to finally hear host David Genat read out your name in the live finale?

    Look, it was a sigh of relief to get some closure. At that point, I had waited for six months for an answer [filming in Samoa finished in September last year], and I was at the point where I was ready to get told yes or no. Obviously, everybody wants yes, but being in this suspended animation of not knowing or not trusting what you’ve been told is so hard.

    Australian Survivor cast shocked by finale twist

    This year’s Australian Survivor players were shocked when host David Genat dropped a bombshell following the final Tribal Council in Samoa.

    “We didn’t tell the players that there was going to be a live audience finale back in Sydney,” 10 / Paramount executive producer Ciaran Flannery tells TV Tonight.

    “We’ve not done a live audience finale since 2020 when covid to put an end to that. That was six years ago, so none of them would have been expecting it.

    “The two final players made their pitches. Everyone got up, went and voted, came and sat back down again. David grabbed the urn, brought it back to read the votes, and said, ‘I’ll read the votes back in Sydney,’ and then just turns around and walks out.
