Todd McKenney is the ultimate all-round entertainer. He treads the boards, hosts TV and radio shows and as we discover in this episode, Todd can knock up a pretty handy dinner party in his swanky new kitchen with his you-beaut speed oven.

The boy from WA became the Boy from Oz and that role - plus his part in making Dancing with the Stars a television blockbuster - has allowed Todd to take his popular one-man show to venues across the country. Check out his website http://www.toddmckenney.com.au/ for the latest touring dates.

Todd shares how his career started, his love of greyhounds, the one place he doesn't feel totally comfortable and his dream dinner party guests.

It's a fizzy, bubbly, refreshing, liquid Food Poll this week as we pop the top of a sarsaparilla or a creaming soda and ask in a very deep Australian, masculine non-AI voice the question: And the best cold drink is a ...?

Allan Raskall could never be accused of being one of televisions beige presenters. Allan's unique style has been lighting up our television screens for more than 30 years. After decades on the road covering the hard news, Allan found his happy place rubbing shoulders with the stars and bringing their stories to life. Allan's mad for classic cars, tea and coffee, and shares with us a cooking tip that is an absolute bottler.

It's a wintry blast for the weekly Food Poll. Can we tempt you with pea and ham soup?

Soon to be seen in series 3 of The Traitors on Channel 10, Alvin Quah is a well known face thanks to his two standout seasons on MasterChef.

Alvin gives us an insight into the machinations of The Traitors and some special memories of his MasterChef days as well. He is proudly Malaysian born and his insight to the best food from his homeland is brilliant. We also learn of Alvin's little-known skill that has absolutely nothing to do with cooking or television cameras, but one he shares with Sarah.

When Kevin asked Sarah what the Food Poll for this week was going to be, 'She just smiled and gave him a Vegemite sandwich.' So keeping the show as bright as bright can be, we ask are you a happy little Vegemite sandwich eater or not?
