S03E12 More AFP media raid drama | LiLo and Temptation Island news (unrelated) | Stranger Things 3 Netflix's biggest yet

Summary: The cat's away so the mice will play! Rob is taking a well-earned rest this week, leaving Molk in charge of the show and it teeters on the edge of a debacle the entire episode. While we planned to go completely off-script there was a surprising amount of news land so we had to cover it all. From the announced coming of Lindsay Lohan to Nine's big first half of the year; from Temptation Island getting dumped before it started to Denyer getting pulled six ways from Sunday - join us for a nice long walk through this last week in the Australian TV industry. (Look, we go on a bit, but we promise, there's gold all through this ep!)
