Australian Alternative comedy scene

Australia has an alternative comedy scene and it’s thriving, and that’s evident in the Destroys Comedy podcast. Ross is a master improviser with a hilarious subversive wit, but knows when to lean back and let the guests shine as well. He holds his influences close, and has carved out his own niche in the Melbourne comedy scene. There’s nothing like Ross Purdy. True to the art form, he’s not afraid to push his audience to the edge of their limits for a profound and/or absurd bit. This is the kind of edge comedy needs right now, definitely a worthwhile listen.

HILARIOUS

Hilarious show, I never really know what to expect and neither do the guests it seems most of time. The host seems like he's in character but then slips in and out to the point of disorientation. Recommend if you like podcasts like Comedy Bang Bang and Hollywood Handbook!
