- 0:02Speaker 1: The Shaw Report. Stand-up comedian, writer and actress Ali Wong
- 0:10Speaker 1: has announced she's touring Down Under next year and she's
- 0:12Speaker 1: bringing her show to Crown Theatre on Monday, June 28.
- 0:17Speaker 1: She has been to Australia before, but this is her
- 0:18Speaker 1: first time coming to Perth. I'm very excited. I love
- 0:21Speaker 1: Ali Wong, as well as her many Netflix specials. You
- 0:24Speaker 1: may know Ali best from the multiple award-winning first season
- 0:27Speaker 1: of Beef. Oh, yeah. You watch that? It's on your list?
- 0:30Speaker 1: I have not watched it. It's on your list. But
- 0:32Speaker 1: I heard so much about it. Oh, it's so good.
- 0:35Speaker 1: Tickets go on sale 11am this Friday through Live Nation.
- 0:38Speaker 1: And someone else that's coming to town, well, East Coast towns,
- 0:44Speaker 1: not to Perth. And this one's going to disappoint their
- 0:46Speaker 1: fans here. Bon Jovi. Bon Jovi have announced their Forever
- 0:51Speaker 1: Tour is coming to Australia, but only to Melbourne and Sydney.
- 0:55Speaker 1: We're going to have to repaint the Dockers bus and
- 0:57Speaker 1: make it a Bon Jovi bus and drive across the Nullarbor. So, yes,
- 1:00Speaker 1: that's right. If you want to see them, you'll have
- 1:02Speaker 1: to go to Melbourne on March the 4th. I think
- 1:05Speaker 1: that might be a long weekend for us. Oh, there
- 1:08Speaker 1: you go. Make an extra, extra long weekend. I didn't
- 1:11Speaker 1: actually look at whether that was a weekend. No, it's
- 1:15Speaker 1: a Thursday. Thursday. Or you can go to Sydney on
- 1:20Speaker 1: March 11, which obviously is also a Thursday. It's a
- 1:22Speaker 1: week later. You'll find all the details you need about
- 1:25Speaker 1: getting your hands on tickets, which also go on sale
- 1:27Speaker 1: this Friday at tgdainty.com. More than four decades after its release,
- 1:34Speaker 1: Prince has claimed the top spot on Rolling Stone's 2026
- 1:39Speaker 1: ranking of the 100 Greatest Guitar Solos of All Time.
- 1:43Speaker 1: It is the solo in Purple Rain and it beat
- 1:47Speaker 1: out performances by Jimi Hendrix, The Eagles and Pink Floyd.
- 1:50Speaker 1: Landing at number one is a notable milestone considering the
- 1:53Speaker 1: magazine famously left Prince completely off its 2003 list of
- 1:56Speaker 1: the 100 Greatest Guitarists. And he's on this list twice.
- 2:01Speaker 1: He took the number 15 spot for his performance of
- 2:04Speaker 1: While My Guitar Gently Weeps at the 2004 Rock and
- 2:07Speaker 1: Roll Hall of Fame ceremony. That is exceptional if you
- 2:10Speaker 1: see it. I had a little refresher of that performance
- 2:15Speaker 1: this morning and it is unbelievably good. Oscar winner and
- 2:21Speaker 1: maker of Silly Candles, Gwyneth Paltrow, is headed to Netflix.
- 2:27Speaker 1: Which is she more famous for now? Winning an Oscar. No,
- 2:31Speaker 1: you know what? It's actually her candles. She's starring in
- 2:36Speaker 1: a series called The Apology. And they clearly have great
- 2:40Speaker 1: faith in her. She should apologise for the candle. Yeah,
- 2:42Speaker 1: I think so. They've ordered two seasons straight off the bat.
- 2:45Speaker 1: And it does, well, it sounds right up my alley.
- 2:47Speaker 1: The apology is about a couple whose son was murdered
- 2:50Speaker 1: 18 years ago in a cold case that gripped the nation.
- 2:52Speaker 1: When someone suddenly confesses, justice finally seems possible. However, when
- 2:58Speaker 1: they learn the killer may get off with a reduced sentence,
- 3:01Speaker 1: they decide to take matters into their own hands. I
- 3:04Speaker 1: like the sound of that. And look, I don't know
- 3:06Speaker 1: what lullabies your folks sang you to sleep with when
- 3:09Speaker 1: you were a baby, Russ. I don't remember. I think
- 3:12Speaker 1: I got Incy Wincy Spider and maybe My Bonnie Lies
- 3:15Speaker 1: Over the Ocean at my grandmother's. Well, in the house
- 3:17Speaker 1: of Gaga, things are a bit different. Well, they would be,
- 3:20Speaker 1: wouldn't they? I was reading this morning that Lady Gaga
- 3:23Speaker 1: sends baby Rose off to sleep with this. Oh, they're
- 3:27Speaker 1: not proud of themselves. It was my Lovey and Rose, Mum.
- 3:33Speaker 1: Does Mummy put all the make-up on at the same time?
- 3:37Speaker 1: In fact... Scared the child. Lovey and Rose. In fact,
- 3:40Speaker 1: I believe Lady Gaga loves the Edith Piaf classic so much,
- 3:43Speaker 1: it does play a part in the inspiration for Baby
- 3:46Speaker 1: Rose's name. Well, at least she can sing. Oh, gosh,
- 3:49Speaker 1: she can. It definitely inspired the giant rose tattoo she
- 3:52Speaker 1: has on her back. Gaga, that is, not the baby.
- 3:55Speaker 1: Not yet. Not yet.
