Jonesy's nephew's 30th birthday was supposed to be a simple family celebration... but things quickly went off the rails. After a day that included pub stops, yum cha, arm wrestling, a smoky bar and a very questionable escalator encounter, Jonesy turned up to work sporting a collection of fresh battle scars. Amanda digs into exactly what happened, while the team tackles a surprisingly heated debate: if the guest of honour can't make it, do you tell everyone before the party starts? Jonesy and his wife Helen couldn't agree, so they put it to the listeners. Plus, Peter FitzSimons joins the show to discuss the race to conquer Everest.
