"Leading with kindness — I find what goes around comes around" — Gabbi Bolt.
Gabbi Bolt might have come onto our radar while online during the pandemic but she's so much more than a Tik Tok comedian. In this chat, she shares her dream for a more inclusive comedy scene, what it was like backing it up after a hit live show in 2022, and how she helped raise $2 million for the production of Ratatouille the musical.

This entire episode is basically about water and why you're probably drinking it wrong. Seriously, it's at least 45 minutes just on water. It's incredible. Don't listen if you're thirsty, it'll make it worse. And don't take health advice from comedy podcasts.

Guy explains why all of his comedy heroes have let him down and the 'tension' that comes from loving Louis CK's comedy but also leading a petition for him not to tour New Zealand. As the conversation digs into cancel culture, Wil reveals a joke from his latest stand-up show he's been mulling over — instead of helping, Guy explains why the joke could be even more problematic than Wil first thought.

The discussion — while fascinating — is ultimately little consolation for Osamu Tezuka and his team. This leads to a chat about the similarities between The Fast and The Furious and Point Break, and why they're essentially the same movie. It's just a pity you can't surf on the moon.

TOFOP goes manga in an all new comic strip by James Fosdike.
2023-05-08 05:41:16 +0000 UTC View PostComedian Justin Hamilton joins Wil to chat about some of the best and worst things they've watched recently. Justin's recommendation for a show "like Everything Everywhere All at Once and more" about an algorithm and a nun has become one of Wil's favourites. In the second half of the ep, Wil gives a blow-by-blow account of one of the worst things he's seen, and not even a cameo from Ryan Reynolds can save it.

This podcast has been running for over a decade so we thought it was time to share a bit of a stocktake on who we are, what we do, and also explain why we mention Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson so often.

New Zealand's Guy Montgomery requires no introduction. To avoid being seen as a try-hard he traveled to the other side of the world to start his stand-up career. He has since returned to the southern hemisphere and in this chat explains the halo effect of Flight of the Concords as well as why he thinks things don't matter as much as you think.
