It’s, sadly, the final week of The Project, and to celebrate/commiserate, we’re joined by a very special guest: journalist, academic, broadcaster, Gold Logie winner, walking fun fact generator, and yes, former Richmond Tigers mascot, Waleed Aly. In this very extended episode, Waleed reflects on more than a decade behind the desk, saying goodbye, and the art of compartmentalising on live television. Plus, we dig into his sporting obsessions, his time inside a mascot suit, his unexpected Elmo bromance, and why The Project meant more than just prime-time news.

Where Does Commentary End and Character Assassination Begin?
We kick off with the chaos and glory of State of Origin II: the heartbreaks, the triumphs, and yes, the media pile-on. We break down the tension brewing between Billy Slater and Aaron Woods, and we ask the big question: where does commentary end and character assassination begin? Also, Georgie’s cooked up an iconic Axis of Evil and Good — can you guess where Perth’s weather lands?

We Manifested ANTHONY ALBANESE!!
After a cheeky DM slide (and a well-placed smiley face), we managed to land the Prime Minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese, for a truly epic, unfiltered chat. We speak about his lifelong love of sport, the wild crossover between politics and play, and of course, his unshakable loyalty to the South Sydney Rabbitohs. Albo shows us he’s not just a sports fan — he’s one of us.

Bec Daniher On Family, FightMND, And The Big Freeze
For today's episode, we're very lucky to have Bec Daniher joining us in studio ahead of FightMND's 11th Big Freeze at the MCG. In 2013 AFL legend Neale Daniher, Bec's father, was diagnosed with motor neurone disease. But rather than fade into the background, Neale dedicated his life to helping prevent the suffering of those who’ll be diagnosed in the future. The charity he co-founded, FightMND, has since raised $115 million and raised awareness of this devastating illness in Australian culture.

Ryan Hoffman on the State of Origin
We're diving headfirst into the most electrifying event in Australian sport: State of Origin. Forget Christmas. Forget birthdays. This is it.

To keep things balanced, we're bringing in none other than Blues legend Ryan Hoffman. He’s being dubbed the Oracle, and honestly... he’s earned it.
