Fitzy & Wippa with Kate Ritchie
Sydney radio’s Ryan ‘Fitzy’ Fitzgerald and Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli are joined on Nova 96.9 in breakfast and nationally from 6pm by one of Australia’s most loved personalities, Kate Ritchie. Their chemistry creates regular moments that make listeners smile, giggle or just plain LOL – at their own expense. No matter what the topic, the team will have their own unique take on it. The trio will hit the sweet spot with local and international celebrities approaching interviews with fun in mind.

Oh no. Someone on the team has been sending creeeeeepy texts- but who is in the wrong? Do we need to escalate this?? Today, we also had a chat about impatient dads. They can be so cool and calm but then they just EXPLODE. We also played RiddleMan AND Im Still Standing!

Old Mates Pub in downtown NYC is the VERY Australian themed pub that has become Wippa's home away from home while he's in town. Last night Wippa and Albo quite literally had a lock-in.

A massive moment for our Wippa. Not only has the Prime Minister learnt "Wippa" isn't his real name, but he also got to speak at the U.N. To support him in such a big moment, Wippa's parents joined him in New York. Overflowing with pride no doubt, but Wippa caught his mum doing something probably not "the done thing" at the U.N. On the topic of "not the done thing" the new NSW top cop has quite the history! It included being found l...
We all remember the high profile couple that were caught on kiss-cam at a Coldplay show.. well it turns out they might not have been cheating! Or they weren't the only ones cheating!!

Kate's come across an article that spells out exactly how to win ANY argument with ANYONE EVER! This led the team to do some role-playing to test out their new skills. Results were... mixed.

Science to the rescue again! A report has come out suggesting we might have an excuse (or 5) for enjoying a bit of late night chocolate!

Wippa's in NYC for the UN General Assembly, along with one or two world leaders. One world leader's on his home turf and has the power to shut the streets down as required, and that's exactly what happened as Wip was trying to make his way around the city. He wasn't the only one stuck in The Don's roadblocks, with French President Emmanuel Macron giving Don a buzz from behind the barrier to give him an earful. In other news, a Brit...
Imagine being a mad footy fan, but never being able to actually go to games. Well that's exactly what we heard about in this chat where girlfriends called in to dob in their big tough boyfriends for what they might be scared of. But flying is ok to be scared of. It's not at all funny- just ask Wippa.

We caught up with mate of the show Isla Fisher for what some might call a "loose chat". Isla was in great form sharing memories of her time on set with our Kate.

Some gender reveals are sweet, personalised and special. Some are outright stupid. Here's a story about one like that.

With Wippa in NYC to meet with the UN, he's taken the opportunity to take in some sights. While "jogging" in Central Park, he noticed a security team surrounding someone wearing a Rabbitohs cap? Who could it be?! We also chatted about a new insult that NRL legend James Graham introduced us to and got the latest from the newsroom on the backflip surrounding Jimmy Kimmel. Also, AI is taking over the world, but what do your workmates ...
Let's face it, there's NO good place to have one, but a comedian in the U.S had to stop the show due to a medical emergency in the crowd- luckily, audience members jumped into action and helped the person. This got us thinking- have you ever witnessed someone have a medical emergency? So we opened up the phone lines and got a contender for call of the year.

Fitzy's old footy club had a big win on the weekend- winning the A-Grade Grand Final for just the fifth time. Fitzy's old team mate and now assistant coach for the team found a very specific item that has become a life-long good luck charm.

Nature is a wonderful thing. One thing you always thought though, might be wrong! Do women need a man for anything now? The boys are getting worried...
