Andy Lee started out on community broadcasting and even as one of Australia’s most recognisable – and funniest – people, there is a grassroots approach he has never lost, even if the audiences are bigger and the platforms are larger. He is known to be “good-natured and goofy”, and loves a yak with his fans, as Rachelle Unreich writes in this week’s cover profile on Lee. It makes Lee the ideal host of Nine’s The Hundred – everyday Aussies joining him to answer questions such as: have you ever dumped a partner by text? Do you believe in God? The responses will surprise. ●

COVER S TORY

ONE IN A MILLION Andy Lee is a uniquely candid celebrity who relishes a friendly connection to his audience and fans.

T

here are many people in the public eye who act famous – they avert their eyes when someone is looking at them and glide through a room with a “look at me but don’t speak to me” vibe.

TV host-comedian-professional chatterbox Andy Lee, 40, is the opposite. He loves it when regular people approach him on the street.

His Instagram account is peppered with ordinary guy moments, if that ordinary guy has the heart of a teenager – such as when he gave himself the pandemic challenge of hitting a tennis ball from one side of his house and catching it after racing through to the other.

He is notoriously amiable and good-natured and goofy, and all of that makes him the perfect host for the show he co-created, The Hundred with Andy Lee, which is screening on Nine and 9Now (Nine is a majority owner of this masthead).

The show’s premise is simple: A hundred everyday Australians join Lee via Zoom to answer questions such as: Have you ever dumped your partner by text? Do you believe in God? Have you never tried Vegemite?

Three comedy panellists – upcoming

guests include Sophie Monk and frequent collaborator Hamish Blake – try to see who knows what the majority of Australians will say.

It was an idea that stemmed out of the pandemic and its abundance of Zoom calls, but Lee says it’s very much “in my wheelhouse” anyway.

“I’ve always loved dealing with everyday people; that’s been my favourite thing about the radio shows that Hamish and I did, as well as all our travel shows – [speaking to] people in their natural environment,” Lee says.

“I always find them far more interesting than the celebrities.

But what was interesting [with The Hundred] was that in a moment where we’re a bit divided on many different topics, it’s nice to prove how similar we are in so many ways when it comes to our habits in the shower or the last thing we do before we go to bed. I really love how inclusive it is and how fascinating it is because we live our lives in our own little houses, and you often think, ‘Surely everyone’s doing this this way,’ but maybe you’re the only one.”

For example? “I thought most people slept nude, but I was wrong about that. Apparently, I’m in the

“If I’m not prepared to share myself, I can’t expect people to share back with me.” minority!” But in another way, the show helps audiences feel less alone, whether it’s about how many have had COVID or sleep in the same bed as their partners. (“I thought the amount of Australians who don’t was fascinating,” Lee says.)

Part of Lee’s approachability comes from the fact that his audience spends their private moments with him, whether they’re watching him from their couch or listening to him on a long drive.

Despite his popularity, his admirers act familiarly rather than fan-crazy. This is lucky, he says, because he doesn’t know how he would have coped otherwise.

“I have been very lucky it was such a slow build. I can’t imagine what it’s like for overnight sensations, it would be a huge adjustment … it’s so different to [someone whose] poster is on people’s walls and there are screaming fans.

“It was super gradual and also inside a radio station; I’m just trying to make Hamish laugh the entire time. People feel they know you, and I love that. I love it when people come up to me. Talking to other mates who are actors who are more reclusive and sometimes have social anxiety – it’s a much harder situation for them, because that’s not why they do their job. They just love acting.

Where my job is chatting to people and I absolutely love it.”

He has managed to deal with the other aspect of fame: having his personal life in the public eye. He lives in Melbourne’s inner east with his girlfriend Rebecca Harding – the pair have been together for more than seven years – and their Welsh terrier puppy Henrietta, but admits

that it’s not always easy being the partner of someone in the public eye.

“She certainly [found it hard], and that’s why we actually broke up three years in,” Lee says.

“She found it really difficult to adjust: people taking an interest in what she was doing, and obviously there was some judgment sometimes, which was difficult. But for me, I’ve always been happy to share things, and that’s why radio suited me. If I’m not prepared to share myself, I can’t expect people to share back with me.

“But I don’t love the fact that media these days are more inclined to find the salacious angle in things that people are doing or posting.

When we first started, it was nothing like that.”

The upside of the attention is his ability to help others. Lee still cherishes the time he received a note of thanks from a soldier.

“He had to go out for long periods of time by himself in Afghanistan and used to stockpile the podcasts to listen to so he could feel connected while he was doing a very serious job.

You don’t realise how impactful those 40 minutes can be for people – that escape, or that connection to Australia from overseas.

“Sometimes people are going through tough times – whether it be things like depression or health battles – and email to say they find a bit of escape or a bit of cheer in what we’re doing. I never really expected that, and those emails are always amazing to read.” ●

EDUCATION

A return to routine A positive mindset from parents is the first step to helping pupils get back in the classroom.

GETTY

BAC K T O S C H O O L

S

tudents at the beginning of their primary school journey, especially those who started prep in 2020, have only ever known education as an inconsistent mix of physical classrooms and long stretches of remote learning.

With vaccinations now available to children five and up, our youngest students face the prospect of their first uninterrupted school year.

So how do we prepare them?

A positive mindset from parents is the first step, according to Wesley College’s Elsternwick campus head, Jacinta Janssens.

“A parent’s perspective will influence how their children will see things or how they’ll feel,” she says.

Like most schools, Wesley focuses on developing positive mindsets and wellbeing. The school’s Grow Your Mind program focuses on character

strengths plus strategies for emotional regulation and socialisation skills.

Children have “gained a lot of new skills” from remote learning, says Janssens, such as greater independence, self-management and flexibility, and it’s important to remind them of their self-efficacy.

“The belief that they can do what they need to do, in terms of dealing with challenges, is really important.”

Preparing children on a practical level also helps with the transition to school life. Janssens suggests “posing scenarios and re-familiarising them with the shape of the day”, for example. Talk to them about their timetable, subjects and teachers, breaks and the fact that behaviour expectations are different at school.

“COVID-19 will be part of our life for a while to come,” she says, so

preparing their expectations around that fact is also important.

Rapid antigen testing will be in place for at least the first four weeks of term one, and students in year 3 and above are required to wear masks indoors. The state government says more than 1800 schools have applied for a Shade Sail Grant, meaning students should expect to take some classes outdoors.

Given structure is so important to building children’s sense of safety and confidence, Australian parenting website Raising Children (raisingchildren.net.au) advises developing and displaying a morning routine to eliminate stress and keep everyone calm and on time.

“Think about what you need to achieve in the mornings,” it says.

“You can probably do many things the night before.”

J OA N N E B R O O K F I E L D

In the evenings, Janssens says having “discussions with your child and showing a real interest in them” will not only help children settle in and allow parents to monitor how children are coping but also build conversational skills, which may need particular attention after lockdowns.

“Children need to reconnect and build relationships with peers at their level, so they need to learn communication skills that support social connections,” she says.

While face-to-face learning facilitates this crucial development, it can also be exhausting for children.

“There will be a real tiredness because they’re not used to both the mental and the physical engagement of the full school day,” Janssens says.

Healthy food, plenty of water, quiet reading time with a parent or sibling, and getting to bed early can all help.

“The main thing is really focusing on the productivity of the school day and allowing children, especially the younger ones, just to ‘be’ after school.

Play, get fresh air and find opportunities to be calm that are not in the digital space.” ●

he simplest way to both impress and take a load off when entertaining is to stock up at your local delicatessen. Whether you fill your table with imported Italian goods from a 150-year-old Carlton deli, or with artisan charcuterie from a new designer butcher in Armadale, the shopping experience at these venues will be as memorable as the eating.

Sydney’s Victor Churchill, possibly the world’s most beautiful butcher, is now in Melbourne. The house patés and terrines are especially good, while pastries and quiches prepared by pastry chefs are available daily. A pantry stocks local, seasonal produce, Baker Bleu bread and wines.

If you’re craving Eastern European flavours or layered Russian Napoleon cake (think mille-feuille with cream and pastry, but in cake form), this is the deli for you. The fridge is stocked with dips and salads, the counter with cold cuts and cheese, and you’ll find all things pickled here, too.
