Charlie recaps his experience seeing Pink live, and the aerial antics that left his daughter unfazed. A dive into the mailbag leads Wil and Charlie to unpack a recent rap beef (requiring some assistance from producer and resident young person Amy/A-Mike). Plus, we should be scared of AI, right?

"Life is temporary."

When Eli Matthewson delivered a killer roast of the Spice Girls at a school assembly at 9 years old, the comedy door opened wide and Eli sprinted through. Wil and Eli chat about helping other up-and-coming artists, running into his Dad at queer events in Auckland, and the place of truth in stand-up.

Charlie and Wil are joined by Junktime's Michael Chamberlin to discuss what's like to barrack for a club where the word "threepeat" is gets you through the hard times. Jack Higgins' goal draws comparisons to the WWE, which naturally leads to imagining Ross Lyon in a bikini. And the enduring celebrity power of Big Brother's Hotdogs is finally acknowledged.

Hot off the success of his Netflix special Psychosexual and film Fire Island, Joel sits down with Wil ahead of his run at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

It's the end of the month which means it's time to empty the mailbag! But first, Charlie brings in a new segment called 'Clobservations', which explores deep existential concepts such as "Why don't you see white dog poo anymore?" Wil and Charlie are reminded of an old idea for a live show, and field some feedback from a 70 year-old listener on 'the good old days'...

"Life is absolute chaos."

David O'Doherty had a realisation as a depressed 11-year-old that he has carried with him ever since. In this episode, he chats to Wil about finding profundity in silly stories, his connection to Australia, and why he's pissed off that every comedian writes children's books now.

Wil and Charlie stumble upon their theme for the 2024 AFL season. Has the competition gone soft when it comes to playing in inclement weather? West Coast are a historically bad team but incredibly wealthy, so why not let them buy some priority picks. And our very own Podcast Mike returns to the show with a shocking confession.

Being a comedian is a delicate balance between the truth, the surreal, and the exaggerated – and no comedian knows that better than John Hastings. John and Wil catch up ahead of John's run at the Melbourne Comedy Festival and chat about being done with hot takes, rebranding monogamy for Gen Z, and the fashion moments on stage they regret most...

Charlie's been on the road a bit and he's got an airport story for Wil – but first they need to re-hash the definition of an Eshay... This leads them down a rabbithole about whether or not people still steal stuff. Plus, why are people from Byron so aggressive on Facebook? Aren't they meant to be relaxed?? And how can Charlie strike a balance between looking smart and not being pretentious at the art gallery?

"Say the truth faster."

Chris Parker is a New Zealand actor, comedian, writer and TV personality - though you might know him best from his hilarious Instagram and TikTok videos. Wil sits down with the self-proclaimed 'People's Princess of Aotearoa' to chat about his museum-worthy hat, what it was like coming out in his 20s, and the advice from NZ comedy legends The Topp Twins that he takes with him in life.
