00:00Well, as most of you are well aware, our colleague Alex Cullen has not been on air with us this past week.
00:06There has been widespread reporting on the circumstances surrounding this.
00:10What I can say is that last night Alex and Nine agreed that he would finish with the network.
00:23Adrian Portelli, aka the McLaren guy, lucky to make an appearance here today as well.
00:29It's a different luxury car.
00:31Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're pretty sure it's McLaren.
00:33Yeah, no, it's definitely McLaren.
00:35He's probably got both of them.
00:36We can split the $50,000.
00:37Yeah, yeah.
00:41Get out of the way.
