From skipping the infamous “bark like a dog” audition game to becoming one of Big Brother’s most beloved housemates, Ben from Brisbane has built a life brimming with charm, wit, and self-deprecating humour. In this warm and hilarious episode, Tim chats with Ben about life before, during, and after reality TV fame - covering everything from screening potential plus-ones and carrying his own lighting, to proudly wearing black (“I’m a sweater - it hides everything”), the perils of being “too early” for your time, and why he’ll always choose a day trip over a holiday. Expect stories of foyers, flights, and finding joy in the little things… plus the one piece of advice he’d give to any future Big Brother hopeful.

This week, it’s just Tim and Jordan - no guest, no script, and enough chaos to fuel an entire season. They debate The Summer I Turned Pretty vs. Twilight romances (are you Team Jeremiah/Conrad or Team Edward/Jacob?), spiral into the existential dread of turning 30, and ponder the great mystery of our time: does anyone actually know what to do when sitting in the emergency exit row? Somewhere between dating app disasters, petty grievances, and nostalgic tangents, they also uncover the legend of the town mirror, celebrate the joy of fresh hotel sheets, and wade through the horror of bin juice. It’s unfiltered, unpredictable, and unapologetically No Notes.

International cabaret icon Reuben Kaye brings all of it in this electrifying episode - glitter, profanity, genuine wisdom and a whole lot of heart. It’s filthy, it’s heartfelt, it’s inspiring, and it’s one of the most unfiltered conversations we’ve ever had. We cackle, and we clutch our pearls as Reuben takes us from outrageous stories and razor-sharp one-liners to unexpectedly moving reflections on identity, resilience and life in and out of the spotlight. Expect big laughs, big love and language your grandmother definitely wouldn’t approve of. Listener discretion advised: this one gets deliciously filthy.

This week, by popular demand (and mild coercion), Tim and Jordan welcome their most special guests yet - their mums. What begins as a heartfelt celebration of friendship, family, and the halfway point of Season One quickly becomes one of the most touching, revealing, and hilarious episodes of No Notes to date.

From IVF miracles and theatre memories to late-night advice, Gameboys in cricket undies, and what photo they'd use if we went missing (hint: it’s unhinged), this episode is a moving tribute to the women who raised us, loved us, and shaped who we are.

Get ready for belly laughs, teary moments, unsolicited wisdom, speed challenges, and a few cheeky vodka cruises along the way. A celebration of strong mums, soft hearts, and the simple joys that hold it all together.

A rich, wide-ranging conversation filled with laughter, insight, and heart - this one’s for the artists, the dreamers, and anyone who’s ever been haunted by a great idea.

We dive into the strange power of influencers, what makes a dish truly unforgettable, and why Mother’s Day might be the most terrifying day of the year (hint: it involves rosé at 8am). Plus, a taste test showdown and an ode to Sizzler. Bring your appetite - and maybe a flashlight for that fine dining mood lighting.

From the Bermuda Triangle to Princess Diana on Venus, this episode is a full-blown spiral into the conspiracies that shaped our childhoods - and still keep us up at night. We’re talking Area 51, MH370, Operation Paperclip, Hitler in the Amazon, magnetic fields, time portals, and Michelle Obama rumours we absolutely do not endorse. Somewhere in the chaos, there's a quiet reflection on how obsession shows up in our lives… and a not-so-quiet rant about the emotional betrayal of being put on speakerphone without warning. Big theories. Bigger feelings. And several gasps that should’ve come with a trigger warning.

From community theatre to centre stage, Courtney Monsma takes us on a wildly candid ride through the glitter, the guts, and the grief of life in performance. We talk dream roles, intrusive thoughts mid-show, growing up on the Gold Coast, and crying through heartbreak in the wings. She opens up about the strange healing power of Glinda the Good, surviving eight-show weeks, her journey with neurodivergence - and what really happened when the sewer line broke mid-show (spoiler: intrusive thoughts won). One of our most honest (and joyfully chaotic) chats yet - for anyone who’s ever needed a reminder that glitter and grit can absolutely coexist.

We’re on the set of Rhinestone Rex and Miss Monica at Queensland Theatre with the incomparable Georgie Parker - two-time Gold Logie winner, certified icon, and a woman of more range than most could dream of.From A Country Practice to All Saints and Home and Away, Georgie has been in our lounge rooms for decades - and in this episode, she serves up a masterclass without even trying. She unpacks what it’s like to return to a role 15 years later, how her love of theatre has only deepened, and why she politely death-stares anyone unwrapping lollies mid-performance.There are forgotten lyrics, audition bruises, deep chats about the state of the industry, and the wisdom of someone who’s done it all - and is still deeply in love with the craft.

We talk community, creativity, and chocolate-bar crawls—and why finding your voice offstage might be just as vital as using it on.
