While Santo Cilauro is busy with Ed Kavalee presenting a daily show of Cup Fever! 2026 in Melbourne (with Rob Sitch doing the rounds in the background), Australia’s ol’ sparring partners ‘Graham and The Colonel’ were out in the San Francisco Bay Area for the Socceroos vs Paraguay game.
Well, kinda…
Champagne Comedy fan Mark Thomas was watching the ABC News and during a live cross report from Tom Wildie, he noticed a couple of familiar green suits with silver hair. 
We’re flummoxed with the loving tribute to everyones favourite intellectual sparring partners, and upon closer inspection via the ABC News website, ‘Graham and The Colonel’ were having a ball. (Ball! Geddit? hehehehe)

If you know who these top blokes are, please reach out to us! We’d love to have them on the Champagne Comedy Podcast for a yarn.
