Musician Ben Lee and radio host Kyle Sandilands have finally put their rivalry to rest.
The pair locked horns last month after Ben publicly criticised Guy Sebastian, who is friends with Kyle, over his decision to withdraw support for the #VaxTheNation campaign, citing his belief that getting vaccinated should be a personal choice.
The two men calmly discussed their disagreement and the broader debate about Guy's 'pro-choice' argument on The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Thursday.

'I blindly defend friends of mine, even if they're wrong,' Kyle said. 'I'll defend immediately, sometimes to my own detriment. I went hard on the defence of Guy.'
'I do admire that, that nobility, defending friends and stuff,' Ben replied.
The musician, 43, said he didn't want to 'pile on to Guy' about his vaccine stance, but said 'public messaging about vaccinations' was important.
