Adam Hills

Adam Hills talks to Hame about everything from the art of negotiating with kids who won't stay in bed, to his subconscious fears of becoming a father.  He shares stories from his own childhood that only now, as a dad, are beginning to make sense, and he & Hame discuss the amazing power of telling your kids you are sorry and that you stuffed up.  Adam Hills has been a mainstay of Australian and UK entertainment for, well… ages.  He hosts The Last Leg on Channel 4 in the UK and has recently rebooted his beloved ABC music quiz show Spicks and Specks, which over the years Hamish has appeared on numerous times (and on each occasion performed horribly).  Hillsy has been an amazing advocate for kids charities and disability awareness and was honoured with an MBE in 2022 (does that make him Sir Hillsy?)  He is married to singer and actress Ali McGregor and together they have 2 daughters.
