WOW. It finally happened.

For two seasons, Sienna’s dream podcast guest has been global superstar Rita Ora - and in this episode, Rita doesn’t just join the podcast… she surprises Sienna in the studio!

After seeing Ben get a Rita Ora tattoo for his daughter go viral on social media, Rita reached out and said she had to do the podcast - leading to an emotional and unforgettable face to face moment.

Sienna and Ben chat with Rita about:

• The epic surprise moment when Sienna is surprised by her idol and dream guest

• How Rita saw the tattoo online, got in touch, why it made her emotional and whether Ben has made things awkward with her husband Taika Waititi

• Growing up feeling different - and learning to back yourself

• Early pop star dreams, broken promises, and pushing through setbacks

• What Rita has learnt about dealing with fame, nerves, and confidence

• Juggling music, fashion, TV talent shows, acting roles - and knowing what to say yes to

• How she manages a hectic global schedule without burning out

Plus, plenty of Kiwi chat, including:

• What Rita loves about being in New Zealand

• Her favourite Kiwi food and favourite place in the country

• Her favourite New Zealand entertainers (that aren’t her husband)

• Whether she has a favourite Taika Waititi movie

And, of course… What she’d tell her younger self at Sienna’s age

It’s a really special, emotional episode about big dreams and how a tattoo ended up changing everything!

In this special bonus episode, Sienna and her dad Ben headed to Wellington (by plane - not flying creature) for the Avatar: Fire & Ash premiere. They sat down with legendary director James Cameron to chat about borrowing his Avatar pool, how Avatar first came to him in a dream, whether he’d change anything about Titanic if he made it today, and where Ben should (or absolutely should not) be allowed to display his Avatar children's toy at home. It’s a seriously funny and fascinating conversation.

They also caught up with three of the film’s stars: iconic Kiwi actor Cliff Curtis, Avatar’s Jake Sully himself, Sam Worthington, and Jack Champion, who plays Spider. Cliff reveals why he hates watching his own movies, all three share the very different ways they landed their roles, and the group weighs in on whether Ben should show up to pick Sienna up from school in full Avatar costume.

Plus: behind-the-scenes chaos including sharing a room with a snoring dad, red carpet Dad jokes, school leave approval drama, and a pair of broken shoes.

Avatar: Fire & Ash hits cinemas from December 18.

In this episode, Sienna tells her dad Ben she wants to grow up and start her own beauty brand — just like Rowena Bird from Lush.

Rowena’s journey started with literally mixing products by hand and somehow grew into helping build one of the biggest and most loved ethical beauty brands in the world.

Sienna and Ben chat with Rowena about:

• What she was like as a kid and how she got into beauty

• Starting out as a beauty therapist and working with The Body Shop

• Selling products from the boot of her car and how the bath bomb was born in a garden shed

• The good bits, the hard bits, and the “what are we doing?” moments of building Lush from scratch

• Whether the famous “secret Lush master plan” is actually real 👀

• Big mistakes, bouncing back from setbacks, and random career twists like becoming a balloon pilot

• Skincare and confidence tips for teens

• How to grow a global brand without losing what matters

• What advice she’d give young people who want to build something of their own

• And what she’d tell her younger self

It’s a funny, honest chat about doing things differently — and changing the world one glittery bath bomb at a time!
