Radio LOL of the Day: Thursday 25th March - Andy Lee talks footy, wanting to be a certain footballer

Show: Rush Hour

Network: Triple M

Quite an awkward, and somewhat unexpected moment surfaced today courtesy of an interview between Rush Hour hosts James Brayshaw and Billy Brownless and Andy Lee.

Normally conductors of irreverent interviews, JB and Billy were throwing questions at Andy regarding football and his life. Of course, up until this point, everything but Megan Gale was mentioned.

But it was quite a good interview, and first they spoke about footy, as Andy is a mad "blue-bagger", as Billy put it.

Andy: Should be a good one. I'm looking to Matty Kreuzer coming back...

Billy: Yes indeed, and Jordan Russell's a fan of yours. I'm just reading the profile here in the (Football) "Record" at the ground here today; "if you weren't an AFL footballer, what would you like to be?"

"Hamish or Andy."

So, if you weren't a superstar in the media, what would you rather be... wanna be... a Carlton footballer?"

Andy: Carlton footballer... maybe Shaun Hampson (Gale's current boyfriend).

This was met with about 4 or 5 seconds of JB and Billy being unsure of what to say. All that can be heard is JB guffawing.

JB quipped, "I think you've been him... you can't pick blokes you've been".

Andy Lee then told the story of why he didn't end up being a footballer; his mother didn't allow him to play after his dad sustained an injury.

Conversation also turned to their deal with Nine, and how the new show is shaping up.

And it remains as unclear as ever, as to what format the show will take, as apparently they still "don't know" what the show is.

Apparently the only thing they know is that they "want to do a show".

So what have they been doing with their spare time?

"A lot of spontaneous purchases", apparently.

But that's what we love about them, anyway.

And apparently Andy Lee, of all people, was to press the button to sound the siren to kick off the 2011 AFL season.
