if they rebooted this for broadway with all three women as they are now, it would bring in $500 million

Thank GOD for Rosie O'Donnell on this latest episode of #Hacks!

Saw it Friday. It's spectacular and not scary at all! So don't let the "horror" tag put you off!

This afternoon, I'm hosting ABC Canberra Drive from outside the Museum of Australian Democracy at Old Parliament House, where thousands have pre-polled for the election.

I don't think it could get more "Canberra." I can't wait!

On your radio and TV again this afternoon across Sydney/NSW/ACT hosting Statewide Drive. Find me on the ABC Listen App or channel 25 on your TV anywhere across NSW and the ACT from 3pm!

(and if you're in the ACT, still hosting Drive for another week on ABC Radio Canberra)

Beautiful morning in Batemans Bay.

Last week, on my regular spot with @dontattempt.bsky.social on ABC Melbourne, I needed some inspiration to bake a cake for a colleague. BIG THANKS to listener Robyn, who called in and told me her cheesecake recipe! It was INCREDIBLE! 🙌🥳💕❤️

I asked Headspace and the Coalition camp about this. Headspace said some jugs and little flags on the table in the presser were moved but that was it. Nothing else requested or moved.

Also if you read Niki Savva’s column in the SMH it has a picture of Dutton next to a rainbow flag from that event.

Hosting Nightlife this weekend! Much coming up tonight including @tommcilroy.bsky.social on his new book, The Challenge (of course), and a cross to the US for the latest in politics.
