    Ep 59: Shad Wicka got fired for calling the PM a c**t.

    This week on ‘Work Hates’ we finish our Brisbane trip with one of our all time favourites, Shad Wicka. Shad has been a standup comedian for years, and he is one of the best emcees the country has to offer, but he hasn’t always done this job. Before this he was training his dog to poo in funny places, which sounds like a silly thing to do, but you just wait and see how handy that was for him. Shad has one of the most insane stories about how he got fired from his dream job because the PM couldn’t take a joke. You’d think he would have better things to do, no? Anyway, it’s a story unlike any other we have heard on the podcast, so don’t you dare miss it. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Ep 58: Army veteran Jack Knight smashed a man’s hand with a hammer.

    This week on ‘Work Hates’ we found ourselves in Brisbane, which meant we had to catch up with Queensland’s most unhinged psychopath Jack Knight. We were desperate (and a bit nervous) to hear what kind of job history Jack had, and he didn’t disappoint. He is an army veteran who isn’t a stranger to disappearing into a forest for six months at a time because he gets sick to death of people. So yeah, he’s normal. Highlights are his time as a fencer where he fought a junkie, and also his worst gig ever, where a woman accused him of having a vagina. Powerful stuff. We loved this chat, so go and learn something by enjoying to this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Make sure you support us on Patreon! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Ep 56: Merrick Watts blew the entire team’s budget on two helicopters.

    This week on ‘Work Hates’ we have a yarn with Australian comedy icon and fittest man in the world Merrick Watts. The bloke has been on Australian radio for decades, and that is not because he knows how to stick to a budget. Merrick is a classic larrikin who has caused quite a lot of headaches for people, both from stress and booze. Just when you think he is good at everything, Merrick explains that that before comedy he was a failed tradie who was bullied relentlessly on site, which was music to our ears. You’re not allowed to be funny, hot, fit, loveable and handy - it’s the law. We love this bloke, so enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Ep 55: Andrew Hamilton made $40,000 a week from selling drugs

    This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with Australia’s favourite ex-crim. After spending time in prison for dealing exorbitant amounts of illicit drugs, Andrew changed his ways and became a stand-up comedian. He tells us about what it was like to be in prison, why you should avoid the ‘bone yard’ and how it was actually a really positive experience for him. This is a great episode, especially if you want to know why in the peak of his wealth he drove those tiny GoGet cars instead of anything you’d expect a drug dealer to drive. We loved this chat and we know you will to. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Ep 54: Kate Dolan told coke heads to go f**k themselves.

    This week we continue our stint in Sydney with one of our favourite comedians of all time, Kate Dolan. Originally from the UK, Kate chose the most expenny city in Australia to start one of the hardest careers: standup comedy. Bretty puts his foot in it INSTANTLY when he lists one of her achievements as being ‘a wife’, and he will never live that down. Kate has had every job under the sun, from a dreadful scam artist at a call centre, to an after school care worker, and it’s safe to say she won’t need to do any of that stuff soon because her trajectory is BRIGHT. We both loved and hated hearing about her worst ever gig with misogynistic coke-heads, but the best part of this episode and of Bron’s life was when Kate got Bretty to do an Anastasia impersonation. We loved this episode more than life itself, so go treat yourself and relish in this week’s ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Ep 53: Ray No fun with Steph broadbridge

    This week we travel all the way to Sydney to record with some of our favourite Sydney comedians. Fresh after our live show, and with a little bit of self inflicted brain damage, we have a chat with the woman of the moment, Steph Broadbridge. She might be making waves in the media at the moment for her parody musical she can’t talk about, but we’ve known Steph for years as being a solid crusher. Before this, she was an usher for The Voice where she was in charge of not letting people go to the toilet and refusing to let fugggos anywhere near the camera. Now as a comedian, she has had some of the nastiest gigs, including people climbing on the stage to confront her, or following someone who has had a beer bottle thrown at them. That’s showbiz babyyyy!! We loved this chat, so go on, do yourself a solid and enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Ep 52: LIVE SHOW IN SYDNEY with Nikki Britton and Luke Heggie!

    To celebrate a whole year of ‘Work Hates’ podcast, we did our first ever live show and it was bloody excellent. Special guests Nikki Britton and Luke Heggie were the perfect sweet and salty additions, and we discovered one of them spewed in a mascot suit and the other made themself vomit from their own fart. It might not have been highbrow, but it was such a great recording. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Ep 51: Aunty Donna director Max Miller gushed over Dusty Martin.

    This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with director, producer and all round good bloke, Max Miller. He’s most famous as the director and one of the writers of one of Australia’s biggest comedy successes: Aunty Donna. We asked Max if he ever wanted to be one of the actors, and he said, “It was hard enough to agree to coming on this podcast”. The man is the classic behind-the-scenes kind of guy, which feels like a waste because he’s bloody hilarious. Max started his working career selling raw poultry, and thankfully the only way was up. We learned about the time he directed Bretty and Dustin Martin in a Bonds ad, and he graciously reads out the feedback on said ad from internet trolls. Max brings a whole new perspective to both the poultry and the entertainment industry, and we couldn’t be happier with that. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast.
