The tweeterview as recorded:

Q1:
"Rovey! Are you in Australia at the mo?"

Hello lovely! I'm currently in Los Angeles in the Uniting States of the Americas.

It's telling me you're typing. This is so weird but cool. Like sex...I guess.

Q2:
"Sex is weird but cool?"

You've been in La La Land too long.

So I'm told.

I've been here long enough to have been to Disneyland 3 times, so too long sounds about right.

Q3:
"Eaten anything amazing? Like a meatball the size of your head?"

Yes! I ordered a 36-inch pizza the other day. It arrived in a 4WD delivery van. Ate it with 2 other people. Took us 24 hrs.

Q4:
"Did you wash it down with one of those 44 gallon drums of coke?"

Got a free 1.5L Diet Coke to go with it. Diet Coke - because they obviously thought we wanted to watch our calorie intake.

I think 1.5 litres of metamucil might be more helpful.

My stomach ached as if to say "Why do you hate me so much?"

Q5:
"" You are so buff now Rovey, like srsly. Workin' on your fitness Fergie style?"

Fergie as in "show me the cash and you touch the Prince" Fergie? Or "I gotta feelin' I'm a bee" Fergie?

More on Q5...
Haha, the rich one.

I try to exercise 6 days a week then give myself 1 day off to eat like a Roman and drink like Mel Gibson.

More on Q5...
Do you catch up with Mel when you're in town, you know, for some drinks and prayers and hyper-ventilating good times?

We hang out, drink and then prank call is wife. It's really funny stuff. Hope no-one finds out about it.

Q6:
"As if anyone's interested in how Mel spends his down time. It's all about his work. What's your work situation at the mo ba.."

..be?

Wife. Girlfriend. You know who I mean. The one with the boobs, apparently.

More on Q6...
Keepin' busy?

I'm doing little bits 'n' pieces when asked on other peoples' shows and stand-up gigs but mainly enjoying some down time.

Q7:
"I live vicariously through your travel What cool animals have you seen/touched lately?"
More on Q7...
Apart from Mel.

I seriously had a skunk in my backyard last night! We also get deer, coyote,hummingbirds, squirrels and a bobcat.

But I swear I haven't touched any of them!

More on Q7...
Skunks aren't real Rove, they're only in fraternity movies.

Tasma and I also just got back from a trip to the Amazon. That was quite special.

Q8:
"What's your animal charity again? Was the Amazon trip for them?"

Fauna and Flora International (FFI) @FaunaFloraInt . They are the world's oldest conservation organization.

Yep, the Amazon trip was to check out one of their projects.

Q9:
"Can we have a go of your travels for them on a website?"

The website is www.fauna-flora.org. We stayed at a place called the Cristalino Jungle Lodge. It's remote but tourists can go

Q10:
"Last one. Are you ever coming home?"

I hope so, I think I left the gas on. ZING!

More on Q10...
We miss you. Luckily the magazines have people following your every alfresco meal. See you soon on our TVs I hope.

I'm sure it's not the last everyone will see of me (sorry). Oz is still home. Miss it a lot, despite the tiny pizzas.

Miss you too, you know! xxx
