The Chaser team’s new comedy The Hamster Wheel will premiere at 9:30pm Wednesday October 5 on ABC1, replacing At Home with Julia.
The Press Release for the show invites journos to call 0487-406-020, which as far as I can work out then appears to let callers change the greeting for the next person… maybe some lawn bowlers might want to leave a message?

If you go though the messages you eventually get to messages from Julian Morrow talking about the show.
I’m listening to the messages. Most of them are people just hanging up.
