Ep 23: Doug Chappel smashed his boss’ car
Doug Chappel is a pillar of the Melbourne comedy scene, a father of two kids, and a qualified psychologist. Before all of this though, he was best known as the prince of the Western suburbs who wore more gold jewelry than Liza Minnelli and chose to go to the movies rather than turning up for his shift. Doug’s instagram is littered with him travelling on flights in business class, which is much better than him travelling in his boss’ sports car. That never ends well, trust us. We love this kind hearted beast, and you will too. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Ep 22: Dave O’Neil digs scum out of an underground pipe, and leaves his mate there to rot
Well, well, well, if it isn’t one of the greatest comedians that has ever existed ON OUR PODCAST! Dave O’Neil is famous for his stand-up comedy, radio antics and acting skills, but none of us knew he could dig. Dave shares with us his more labour intensive job, and how he left his mate Jeffery there forever. We hope Jeffery is alive and well, but from the sounds of those working conditions, he almost certainly is not. Dave generously illustrates one of the worst comedy gigs he’s ever done in his 87 years of comedy, and how he refused to let that audience beat him. He’s a living legend, and we loved recording this. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Ep 21: Josh Earl smashed supermarket stock to conceal piss
Australian comedy darling, Josh Earl has dipped his toe into many jobs during his lifetime, from check-out chick, to school librarian, to musical comedian. Whilst all jobs have had moments of humiliation, Josh’s MacGyver instincts including creaming soda and urine provided more questions than answers. His epic comedy bomb involving a mop bucket and a song about homophobia is worth an entire episode alone. Everyone loves Josh Earl, and we know everyone will love what he has to offer the pod. Please enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

EP 20: Wil Anderson told a punter that maybe his life wasn’t worth living
Australian comedy royalty popped in to explain why he gave up a promising career in journalism for a career in comedy. Obviously it worked out perfectly for him, but it hasn’t always been smooth sailing. He details his worst ever heckle, and his least favourite moment closing out a corporate event, which was extremely cringey. We were honoured to have the great man on the pod, so please, enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Ep 19: Reuben Kaye found a lady in a cupboard
Award winning cabaret star, singer and comedian, Reuben Kaye joined us on the pod to explain where he was before he blew the Australian comedy industry to bits. His original answer was ‘London’, but as we delved a bit deeper, the real answer we wanted was way less cool. Reuben worked in shitty hospitality jobs where we watched a man make salmon patties in a sink he spat in, and then he climbed the ranks of a company that celebrates bandanas. It was a wild ride. Enjoy this episode of Work Hates!

Ep 18: John Hastings gets yelled at by both radio DJs and doctors
Canadian comedian, John Hastings hasn’t always been a world class standup. He used to work in radio where he wrote the jokes for a volatile trio who made his life a living hell. He does, however, state that the weirdest job he has ever had is standup, and he offers our listeners a deep insight into the industry we know and love/hate. Go on, get stuck in, and enjoy this episode of Work Hates!
