Welcome to the show, we're on Wednesday the 22nd of July.
**Luttsy** (0:08)
Missy Higgins is pretty good today, I'm going to start from there. Also, Fitsy talking, if you missed the whole recap of the cricket that Susie did.
**Susie O'Neill** (0:18)
Backyard cricket.
**Susie** (0:19)
Yep.
**Nick** (0:20)
Yeah, that's fun.
**Luttsy** (0:21)
So, we've got Fitsy on.
**Susie** (0:22)
Yeah, Fitsy's on. That was a great day down at Kirribilli with the Prime Minister. They've done it for a few years now. They're a well-oiled machine.
**Luttsy** (0:29)
They are, aren't they?
**Susie** (0:30)
It's here with her and Kate.
**Nick** (0:31)
Well, they were on drive, then they were on Sydney breakfast for a while and they're back on drive.
**Luttsy** (0:36)
But interestingly, the Prime Minister, his favourite radio show in the country is...
**Nick** (0:43)
Colin Jack, yeah. No.
**Luttsy** (0:46)
It's Nova, but it's not Fitsy and Whippa.
**Susie** (0:48)
It's Perth.
**Luttsy** (0:49)
He loves Nova breakfast in Perth.
**Nick** (0:52)
Nathan, Nat, Sean?
**Luttsy** (0:54)
Yes.
**Susie** (0:54)
How do you know that?
**Luttsy** (0:55)
Because he told me. Did he?
**Susie O'Neill** (0:57)
The PM told you?
**Luttsy** (0:58)
I sat with him in the Rugby League Grand Final, whenever that was, when the Broncos lost. Oh, 23
**Susie O'Neill** (1:02)
Did you? You sat next to him or just like around him?
**Luttsy** (1:04)
No, I was in the Chairman's Suite and he sat next to me for dinner. Really? And we sat there and...
He said, I love those guys in Bar, love them in Perth, they're my favourite show. And they get him on all the time. Really?
**Susie** (1:13)
Really.
**Luttsy** (1:14)
He's smart because they rate really well.
**Nick** (1:16)
Yeah.
**Susie** (1:16)
Okay.
**Nick** (1:16)
And they've also been on forever.
**Susie** (1:18)
Like, yeah.
**Nick** (1:18)
Yeah.
**Susie** (1:19)
Did you find him easy to talk to, the Prime Minister?
**Luttsy** (1:21)
I did in that respect, but it was, I think, different circumstances.
**Nick** (1:25)
Did you, Susie?
**Susie** (1:26)
No. I think all those type of people, like I've sat next to Peter Dutton, found him hard to talk to.
**Luttsy** (1:31)
You've got to open him up, because I saw Dutton on the weekend. He was at, that 80th I went to. And he always has a bit of a joke with me.
**Susie** (1:38)
Does he?
**Luttsy** (1:39)
But I think I-
**Nick** (1:39)
He's hard to crack.
**Luttsy** (1:40)
Because I'm sort of-
**Nick** (1:40)
The potato. Dutton, everyone said he looks like a potato.
**Luttsy** (1:42)
Yeah, yeah, potato head, yeah.
**Susie** (1:44)
Who else? Other politicians?
**Susie O'Neill** (1:45)
Malcolm Turnbull.
**Susie** (1:46)
I reckon the one I got on the best with was John Howard.
**Nick** (1:48)
Yeah, he looks like he's got a bit of character.
**Susie** (1:50)
Because he was around a lot at the Sydney Olympics, and he loved sport.
**Susie O'Neill** (1:54)
Yeah.
**Susie** (1:54)
And so he'd come to all different events, and him and his wife, and his wife super friendly.
**Luttsy** (1:57)
Janet.
**Susie** (1:58)
Janet.
**Luttsy** (1:58)
Janet.
**Susie O'Neill** (1:59)
Janet. Janet. Janet Howard.
**Susie** (2:00)
I think if they've got a, yeah, I don't know, that was such a sexist thing I was about to say.
**Nick** (2:04)
If they've got a life for sport.
**Susie** (2:05)
If they've got a wife, they're a lot more.
**Luttsy** (2:08)
If they've got a wife, they're a lot more personable.
**Susie** (2:10)
Personable, but that was.
**Luttsy** (2:12)
That might be true.
**Susie** (2:13)
Or human.
Well, I find them easy to talk to if they come in a couple. Oh, I see.
**Susie O'Neill** (2:17)
I suppose this is what I'm saying.
**Luttsy** (2:18)
Well, the Albanese is married now. Oh, but you're saying when they're with their partner.
**Susie O'Neill** (2:21)
Right, right.
**Susie** (2:22)
When it's two of them, it sort of feels a bit more.
**Luttsy** (2:24)
So you had good chats with Howard, one on one, or one on two?
**Susie O'Neill** (2:28)
Well, you were a gold medal winner at the Olympics. He would have loved you.
**Susie** (2:30)
Jeez, when I say good chats, more than I've had with anyone else, but it wouldn't have been too deep or anything. He'd sort of asked me about my event and how I felt.
**Luttsy** (2:38)
Yeah, right. So, yeah.
**Susie** (2:40)
But he used to come into, he used to come into, like, Australian Olympic Committee team events and everyone would start cheering and chanting. And like, everyone loved him.
**Nick** (2:48)
Yeah, that's interesting.
**Susie** (2:49)
I think because he was a bit daggy.
**Nick** (2:51)
When was the last time you reckon everyone loved a PM? You think it was John Howard?
