Hey, mates, we've got some live stuff coming up that we need to tell you about.
Perth is happening very soon.
Sunday, November the 2nd, Rosie O'Grady's in Northbridge Pub.
What can people expect?
4pm?
Yep.
We're bringing over some of our very, very, very favourite guests from Melbourne.
So you'll get to see us and some of your favourite comics.
All in a big live show, plus our solo shows,
Carl Chandler's Got Talent and Tommy Dasolo's Dreamboat.
Yeah, that's it.
Well, it's not really that show, but it is.
Both of us doing an hour of stand-up.
Yeah.
Yeah, and then coming up in Sydney also, Sunday, November the 30th in Sydney.
Tickets are on sale for that now.
LittleDumbDumbClub.com is where you can go to get both those things.
Guys, come out, support the show.
I mean, we say it a lot, but yeah, it's so great to meet the people who listen and to
feel like you guys think it's worth leaving the house to do, you know, putting that little
bit of extra effort to see the show.
That's a nice little subscription fee in a way.
If you enjoy the show, here's your chance to come and give 20 bucks back.
Get off your fanny.
Come on down.
Give us your money.
Yeah, that's it.
Also, we're hooking up some live stuff for Melbourne towards the end of the year
that's it
a lot of response
to the bus tour
which is looking
more and more
like a reality
but at the very least
we'll be doing
definitely some kind
of live
normal live episode
I think we'll lock in
very soon
we'll lock in a December
Melbourne live podcast
and then maybe we'll look
at that Maryborough bus tour
in January
I reckon that's it
yeah
cool
and then also
on top of that
if you're listening to this
in the next week
I'm doing a one off of Carl Chandler's Got Talent,
my festival show from this year at Five Burrows in Hardwood Lane in Melbourne
on October 23 at 7 p.m.
just before the regular Five Burrows comedy show at 8.30.
So it'll be a sweet combo.
You come down and see both of them or just see one of them.
Only $12.
So you can get those tickets on Try Booking or just on the door.
Cool.
See you there, guys.
Hey, mates.
Welcome once again into the Little Dumb Dumb Club for another week.
Thank you for tuning in.
My name is Tommy Dasolo.
Sitting opposite me, the other half of the program, Carl Chandler.
G'day, Dickhead.
Hey, now we've spent a fair bit of time on this show, and also I've done it in my stand-up,
talked about getting a wish from the Make-A-Wish Foundation when I was a kid,
and wishing for a shitty laptop that is now landfill somewhere.
That wasn't your wish. Can I have a shitty laptop?
Well, it wasn't what I specified, but it was what I got.
So I now, because that's kind of out there,
and I've talked about it a fair bit,
any time Make-A-Wish does anything... I thought you were going to say shitty laptops want you to be the figurehead for them.
Yeah, why aren't I getting hit up by Dell to do an audition for them?
I'd be good in a Dell commercial.
Just going, ah, it's not as good as a Mac, Dell.
If it's good enough for a little boy with cancer,
it's good enough for the rest of you.
So, yeah, now, any time Make-A-Wish do anything,
any time there's a big enough story about Make-A-Wish,
it's just instantly people hitting me up going,
ah, it looks like it's better than yours.
It's like anything's better than mine.
A bag of jelly beans is better than mine.
And also, to be fair, I got better from cancer,
so that's the high point in that story for me.
Exactly, yeah.
So someone tweeted me on Sunday saying,
hey, you're off the hook for worst Make-A-Wish of all time.
Some kid just got their wish granted to meet Tony Abbott.
And so I thought this would be funny.
I got on Twitter and I added the Make-A-Wish Foundation
and I said, did you just make some kid meet Tony Abbott?
What the fuck's wrong with you?
And then my friend who was with me…
Hang on, did he get in that position?
Did he get cancer from meeting Tony Abbott and then made a wish after that?
That was like someone else's wish.
So my friend looked it up and it turned out the story was it
was like some 10 year old refugee kid who is sick and just wanted to meet tony abbott to say thank
you for bringing my family to australia and and helping us flee our our war-torn land and so i was
like well well that tweet's coming down because i was like but it was like
that that kind of that nice but also sad reminder of like oh i'm not famous enough for this to be
an issue do you know what i mean like if i was if i had any kind of profile within 15 minutes that
tweet would have been like there's a refugee kid you fucking asshole right yeah that'd be good that
i mean is that your aim maybe to get famous enough that Make-A-Wish start saying,
you know, start using your name in the selling point, as a selling point, you know?
Yeah, I mean, I kind of, yeah, I mean, I have a routine about them on YouTube.
Like, I think that they maybe want to jump off the back of that.
Yeah.
There is stuff insinuating in the routine that they cause people to die.
So, I can sort of see.
But hey, if they want to rebrand and become a bit more edgy
and a bit more hip, maybe that's something they should do.
Hey, should we introduce our guests?
Sure.
First of all, his album Atomic Thrust is available now on iTunes.
Please welcome back into the little dum-dum club, Oliver Clark.
Thank you.
What a treat to be here.
If you were struck down by illness right now,
what would you make a wish be?
Big question for three minutes into the podcast.
Oh, man, I don't know.
I would like, if I was struck,
I'd like just to end with the best shit ever.
Like, you know, like, because you have relief every day
and if it's one of those clean snaps, you feel pretty good.
Imagine if it was the best ever.
Yeah. So you're saying, like, people get
their final meal if they're, like, on death row
or whatever. But really, what's after
the meal should be the bit that's actually factored in.
Yeah, but having said that, what is the
meal might impact the shit.
Yeah, that's exactly what I mean.
So the meal might be pretty bad, to be honest.
To make it a good final shit.
Clean snap.
I want to say that you're known for your album.
What's the album called again?
Atomic Thrust.
Atomic Thrust.
And known as the latest instalment of someone yelling shit at me from a moving vehicle on
Riversdale Road near my house, which you did last week, which is very good.
Last week, exactly. Just screaming at me
at the side of a truck. Yeah, your
reaction was pretty good though.
He just turned and pointed
and laughed. That's good. What more do you
do? I don't know, maybe a hey.
Also joining us,
you know him from It's A Date.
You know him from Adam Hills Tonight.
Please welcome back into the little dum-dum club, Harley Breen.
Thank you very much.
It's great to be here with such a wonderful gentleman.
Yeah, right.
What about you?
What's your final wish?
What's your make a wish?
I've put some thought into this since you asked, Oliver,
and I would love to be shaved of all of my hair.
Completely hairless.
Just completely hairless and then inserted into like a human-sized condom
in circumference.
I think both of you guys.
Someone's good.
So many layers.
Completely shaved, covered in oil, put into like a –
in circumference really tight around my body
but it's suspended from ten floors up on an ankle
and then I'd just like to slide through that.
See, I think you guys misunderstood the question.
I meant like if you're sick and you can be granted a wish.
It's still not worse than your wish.
But you're both just saying like a thing that you'd like to do before you die.
It's not your bucket list.
It's like what's a big thing.
No one's going to tolerate a naked man going through a large condom in the nude
if he doesn't have cancer.
Yeah, that's fair.
To be fair, if you made those wishes, they'd be like,
yeah, you do sound like you're about to die.
It sounds like you've got brain cancer.
One of the key signs of having brain cancer
is that you just start having stupid ideas.
Yeah, that's the first sign.
I've had brain cancer for ages.
Might start a podcast.
Another struck down by brain cancer.
Now, we've all had a lot of fun here today.
Yes.
Thanks for tuning in, guys.
What a treat.
Great start.
Well, I think three out of four of us have had –
a favourite topic on this podcast is auditions.
So we've all been auditioning today.
Arlie Breen doesn't audition.
No, that's not true at all, Carl.
Here we go.
Plenty of auditions and will do in the future.
It's just that I try and avoid them.
Yeah, you try and avoid them because –
And it's very easy.
You try and succeed in avoiding them.
Yeah, you have vehement issues with most products on the market.
No, that is...
I'm not as militant as you would believe.
Okay, well, I'll name some products.
I consume all the things that I wouldn't advertise.
Would you do an ad for cigarettes?
No.
Would you do an ad for fast food?
Would you do an ad for McDonald's? No. Would you do an ad for fast food? Would you do an ad for McDonald's?
No.
Would you do an ad for socks?
Yeah, probably.
Socks made of meat.
Long condoms.
Yes.
Durex.
Would you do an ad for Durex?
Of course I would.
You would?
Safe sex, yeah, definitely.
All right, fair enough.
Would you do an ad?
I'd love to.
Actually, Durex, if you're listening,
I think it's a great message.
We need to get it out there.
Just lower your prices.
Make it more accessible.
Oh, really?
Too expensive?
Well, the government could offer subsidies.
Absolutely.
Making it more affordable.
Anyway, sorry.
That is a great pitch.
That sounds like you really...
You know what doesn't need any subsidies?
Going bareback like a real fucking man.
Which is what we auditioned for today.
Do you know what does need subsidies then Is all of your healthcare needs
After you get gank cock
Oh boy
That's not a real disease
Gank cock
Infection
So I was
You know
We do Rad Dad
We do the radio serial
Australia's longest running
And most successful
And most consistent Radio serial Rad Dad Which Spo do the radio serial, Australia's longest running and most successful and most consistent radio serial, Rad Dad,
which, spoiler alert, episode coming up today.
Oh, back from hiatus.
Yeah, the return of it.
Back from summer hiatus.
The return of a show that's been highly requested to stay away.
I don't think a single person has said to us,
where is it in the maybe eight weeks that we haven't done it.
No one wants it.
Least of all me.
I've had horrible experiences.
Well, you've got another one coming up in about 40 minutes.
Yippee!
I've got friends.
You know what it is?
It's kind of like our thank God you're here.
Because comedians come on the show,
they read out a Rad Dad script that they've never seen before
and they just get shit canned in it.
So it's kind of like, it's more like, oh, fuck, you're here.
You're here and bend over.
Thank fuck you're a dumb cunt.
So Oliver Clarke and Tommy Dessler, you went on an audition today.
I went on a separate one.
The origin of the Rad Dad story was I was called in
for an audition
to play a Rad Dad
now I was called in
to play a Dad
without the Rad
just a Dad
no radicalness
required in this
so that's why
had to pare it back
slightly
yeah yeah exactly
you're wearing a sensible
collared shirt
I noticed
have you come
is that what you wore in
exactly
yes it is
so I've got like
a grown up shirt on
you do look like
a sensible Dad
yeah well I look like a sensible dad Yeah well
I look like one
But yeah
I don't reckon I got the role
It was a
It was a thing where I had to play
You know that
That stupid thing
Where you get a script
Or you don't get a script
I didn't get a script
I came in
I looked at the money involved
I thought well
This is clearly not a speaking script
This is not enough money
To be learning any lines
So this is good
I just have to come in
It's like you need to do
A bit of improv in there.
I'm like, okay, well, that's warning.
Alarm bells right there.
You're writing the script as you do it.
Yeah, yeah.
Stealing your ideas.
Do you think you'll get this ad for Space Jump Enterprises?
So I walked in.
There was a friend of the show, Nick Maxwell,
from the podcast The Sweetest Plum.
He was in going from the same role.
Immediately I'm intimidated because he's a good performer and a good actor.
But he's quite, as he's wont to be, he's a bit down about his situation.
He was a bit just sitting there going, oh.
He gets called in first and I'm excited to see him.
I haven't seen him for a while.
I'm like, oh, this is good to catch up.
He gets called up.
I go, oh, what are you doing after this and as he walks into the door he goes drinking heavily
this is 10 30 this morning um so i get my turn i go in there and it's this thing where i just
before i go in i get given a uh lines i get given like a storyboard it's like he's oh a storyboard
yeah storyboard yep here's the lines uh here's the's like here's oh a storyboard yeah a storyboard wow yep
here's the lines
here's the first half
here's the second half
so I'm sitting there
swatting going
alright okay
I think I've got this
I think I can do this
without the paper or whatever
we go in
and they go
alright sit down
do your lines whatever
and it's an ad with a kid
so I'm the dad
the kid has to walk past me
and pick up some stuff
and come past again
or whatever
and then
this is bullshit
that you're getting called in for a role
with a dad who has a kid
and we're not going in as a package deal.
Yeah. That is bullshit.
No, they needed a male.
That's bad.
Being a woman is bad.
Oh, shit.
So I go in there
And I go
I'm waiting for the lines
I'm waiting for the lines
They go
They go action
Or whatever
And I'm like
Oh so what do I
What do I do
What do I do now
And they go
And they go
Just go
And I'm like
Oh I'm waiting for the lines
I'm waiting for the lines
You have to do the lines first
And they're like
Oh we're not doing
The first half of the script And I'm like Well why would You have to do the lines first And they're like Oh we're not doing The first half of the script
And I'm like
Well why would you give me
The whole thing
Like literally 15 seconds ago
And expect me to know
Just cut to the second bit
I'm like okay
So I go to do the second bit
And they go
Oh by the way
We've changed that one line
That's left in there as well
Just say whatever you want
Awesome
What am I doing
What sort of a
So I did it quite badly
I felt very bad
For the kid that was with me
because he was literally just walking behind me.
Oh, there's an actual kid?
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Kid in school uniform.
He walked behind me.
What the fuck is going on here?
It's Wednesday.
What was that?
Wait up.
And this kid also...
What were you auditioning for?
Simon Towns' Wonderworld.
For the role of Simon Towns' Wonderworld For the role of Simon Towns So the kid
The kid just says
The kid's like 15
So I'm like going
How fucking old do you think I am?
How do you think I've had this kid?
And then the director goes Just just think the dad of modern family.
As I'm about to say something, just think dad of modern family.
And I'm going...
Technically there's like four dads in that show.
Yeah, but he says an actor's name who I don't know which one it is.
So very quickly I'm like, the fat gay one?
So what do I do?
So I don't know what dad it is.
I presume it's the guy with the brown hair, the black hair.
And I'm like, what do I do with that information?
Like, you know, it's that thing where I've got one line that I've had to make up
and then he goes, think the dad in Modern Family.
I'm like, okay, I'm thinking him.
It's not affecting me at all.
I'm just going to say whatever it is straight away, whatever.
So I say it and they clearly go, oh, that's no good.
You know that thing where it's like, oh, try saying it better.
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
I hadn't thought of that.
But I had a bit of this where today because the one I was doing was with
another person but then there was a bit where we both had to do a bit
individually and like you do like the guy.
And now the prefix is I've been called in to be the dad and you've,
is this right?
You were called in to be handsome guy.
Yeah.
Hello.
Yeah, that's right.
So after talking a few weeks ago about the handsome man, after –
well, this is the thing.
A few weeks ago I got an audition that was – the role was on the brief was
we zoom in on an unattractive man.
If attractiveness had to be measured on a scale of 1 to 10,
then this guy is definitely a 1.
That was the thing I got.
And then today I'm an attractive man.
Yeah, with a funny face though.
They're just playing games with me.
Yeah, attractive man with a funny face.
I think someone at the casting agent wants to fuck me.
Like this is negging.
They're negging me.
They're full on negging me.
They need you first.
Yeah, career negging. Like they're negging me. They're full on negging me. They need you first. And now they – Yeah.
Career negging.
Yeah.
We did have a haircut today.
So, you know, a haircut's like eight out of ten difference.
Yeah, exactly.
But so that thing where you're watching someone else do it and they do it three times and
then you do it and the guy's like, yep, great.
And you go, is it better or worse to be asked to do it more?
Yeah.
Do you know what I mean?
Is it like we want to see more
or is it like
you do it once
and they're like
that was so bad
there's no point
asking this guy
to do it again
because there's
no chance of us
getting anything good
out of it
that's it
people get me
to repeat my lines
I'm like
I don't know how to do it
once or twice
or three times
it just doesn't matter
as soon as I get in there
I'm ticking down the moments
until I'm asked to leave
I think I'm officially retiring from not getting roles on ads.
I think that's it.
I think I'm going to – I mean it feels like people are forcing that retirement upon me anyway,
but I think I'm going to draw a line in the sand.
Unless you're a firm out there that's like a chocolate mousse firm or fast food,
something like that, that you go, we need Chandler in this role.
I don't want to pretend to be anyone else.
I want to be the guy that comes in,
insults someone in a food ad,
and I'm out of there.
Just comes in there and goes,
what are you eating that shit for?
Eat this shit, you fucking idiot.
Boom.
If you like the sound of that.
Well, this company, if you're out there.
Nando's is on the phone right now.
How did you feel like you went, Ollie?
So we were going for the same thing. We won't say what it is.
I feel like it went okay.
But once again, I don't know. You just can't
tell, can you? You kind of do it.
You don't know what they're looking for.
You don't know if you've delivered it right. You can't tell
by their expression because they've got nothing to do with the choice
anyway. They're just pressing record on them.
I had a weird experience
with the guy kind of
recording it,
like the casting agent guy, where he came out and he called my name out
and it was like a little bit earlier than I thought I was needed
and I was just talking to someone else and I was like, oh, what?
And he was like, Tommy, I'm like, oh, yeah, yeah, that's me.
And then when we got in the room he's like, what was all that about out there?
And I was like, oh, I don't know.
Sorry, I was just off in my own world.
He's like, yeah, because I said your name and you freaked out. What were you doing? And I was like, yeah, I don't know, I just, sorry, I was just off in my own world. He's like, yeah, because I said your name and you're like,
you freaked out.
Like, what were you doing?
And I was like, yeah, I don't know.
I was just talking to my friend and I don't know what I thought.
And he goes, yeah, it was just really weird.
And it just went back and forth like that for like.
So he made it even worse.
Yeah, literally a minute.
And then in my head I'm going, well, I'm not getting this.
He did that same thing to me when I got up.
So what was that about?
It's a power play If he rings you
You know
If you get the role
Potentially
And you get an email
When
Thank you
Yeah and it's sent
To Tommy Dassler
He doesn't want you
Thinking who the fuck's that
And not answering the email
Yeah it's true
Yeah he just wants to
Make sure that I know
Who I am
Yeah
It's interesting that he
Did the same thing to you
Yeah maybe this is
I think it's his way
Of getting to know you
Maybe the product That we actually I think it's his way of getting to know you. Maybe the product that we actually...
I think it's his way of getting you to know you.
Yeah.
So, Tommy and Desi, we're sitting in your house.
We're recording this from Casa del Allsop today.
Yep.
And is it something we should be bringing up on the podcast?
There's been...
It's a bit empty.
Yeah, it is a bit empty.
It's probably not something that's... You've got a bit less something that's in spite of what I told you a week ago.
Something that my girlfriend has moved out.
Yeah, that's all.
It's still ongoing.
But yeah, that's where we're at.
Is it the first time in the podcast history where there's a chance
for a listener to sleep with one of the members of the Little Dumb Dumb Club.
Did you guys just become blokes world?
What the fuck kind of shithouse prize is that?
I'm trying to help my friend.
I'm playing devil's advocate.
I'm trying to get my friend out there
If things aren't going so well
I'm trying to
Who's this friend you speak of?
My god
I nearly bought that too
Oh yeah
Chandler's got your best intentions
Yeah
Not future stories
Yeah
It's like you're investing
In future podcasts
Halle Breen
You've been living the single life
I'm a single man
I would say this about you
You have been even more single
Lately than ever before
You've always been a man that I sort of thought
As a single guy, as a good looking big single guy
You could be out there
You could be taking your choice
Of the single ladies out there
Fuck you have been out of the game for so long.
Jesus Christ.
I'm going to make a choice.
Chandler's life is over, everyone.
You could be dancing with any girl in the Pride of Errand.
Any girl at all.
You know what?
If I was from that era, I would do a lot better.
I liked all of those parameters.
I think that's good.
Yeah, right.
There's no parameters anymore.
No. There's no – I don't even know anyway.
I was never a part of the game in the first place.
People keep saying to me, are you back in the game? Because I'm recently single. I don't even know what the game is. I was never a part of the game in the first place. People keep saying to me are you back in the game? Because I'm
recently single. I don't even
know what the game is. I've never
been in the game. I was never in it.
But you got married quite young.
Yeah, I had one sexual partner before
my wife and then got married at 24.
What's that one sexual partner from
before doing now? I saw
her recently. Her name is Zoe.
She was a lovely girl.
My first girlfriend.
We broke up.
Yeah.
Whatever.
I don't know.
She lives in Queensland somewhere.
There.
Really? We stay in touch a lot.
Well, right in, Zoe.
Is she single?
Because I have a friend.
I think she might be.
I don't know.
Yeah.
I can see the sort of lady that would go for you
would probably be right into me as well.
Sure.
We are very similar.
Handsome man one and handsome man two, right?
Big handsome man and little handsome man.
So you've been – I feel like you've been doing a lot more dating.
You've been doing a lot more –
Oh, there's no dating.
Getting into the – being more social maybe?
I have had some
dalliances.
Some more dalliances.
Alright.
Rendezvous.
Yes.
Yeah.
In fact, the other night
I had the first in my entire life
I was the recipient
I think that's the right word.
Oh, you got bummed. You got bummed. Oh, yeah, I got bummed. Well, kind of. entire life I was the recipient I think I will just be sparing in some details
because some aren't necessary for the story but I because there's other people involved. Well, please have some.
Because otherwise this is a story about you having a wank.
Yes.
My hand walked into the room.
Please have some respect for podcasting and give us the full story. Righto, whatever.
None of this copping out bullshit.
I was out fucked up on a lot of drugs at five o'clock in the morning.
No, we need to know details.
Stop holding back.
Oh, no, hang on.
And at five o'clock in the morning I decided there's nothing more for me to gain here.
I'm going home to my house.
And through a series of messages between myself and this young lady,
it was arranged that she would arrive at my hotel room.
It's like 5 o'clock in the morning.
She's going to bed.
But I had said I have no intentions of anything happening.
I have to go to bed.
I have two shows tonight, which is not far away,
considering the sun's now up.
But you're more than welcome to come here.
She had nowhere else to go.
Jeez, she sounds great.
Did you meet when you were buying a copy of The Big Issue off?
Oh, dear.
It hasn't started well.
Sun coming up, she starts work early.
Well, her sister had apparently kicked her out of her house quite early in the morning
because she was there with another bloke or something to that effect.
And so I'd offered my service department is where I was staying.
Service department.
Not your services, but your service department.
Just my service department.
I was going to bed.
What city is this in?
Sydney.
Okay.
You're giving away who the girl is.
Yep.
Harley fucked the bridge, everyone.
So anyway, about quarter past six finally she's like,
oh, I'm here.
I'll come down and let you in.
I go downstairs out of my fucking head, I'm off my brain
and she's standing there with her sister and this, like,
a very greasy looking person is the best way I can explain it.
Like he looks like an Australian version of a Jersey Shore character,
like big sort of gold-hooped earrings.
So this is a race thing when you said greasy?
No, no.
Okay, actually I did say greasy at the Jersey Shore,
which is technically Italian.
I didn't mean of any ethnicity.
I just meant his hair was slicked back.
Can you say something?
Oh, again.
But can you say a Greek person is greasy?
Because it's greasy.
No, they're Italian from Jersey.
Oh, yeah?
Very good point.
No, but that's not what I was saying.
Anyway, whatever.
So this girl's –
This guy just looks like he might –
So Vince Colosimo's in the lobby.
He's ready to go.
He didn't –
He looks a lot like him.
He seemed like a cheery guy, whatever.
But I'm like, well, what are you doing here?
So they all come up to my hotel room because I failed the ability
to say anything.
I come up and then I was sitting there.
I just really wanted to go to bed.
And then at 7 o'clock I went back out to the balcony
and they were just all sitting there having beers going,
whew, yeah.
This is like a really corporate office service department
so that everyone's just going off to work at that time of the morning.
And they're over over my balcony going
yeah
woo
well that's my perception
of what's happening
so I just walked out
and said to the
the girl that I've been
talking to
I went hey
you're more than
welcome to stay
you two
fuck off
which they all
laughed about
they're like yeah
that guy is crazy
I'm like alright
I'm just going to bed
so I go to bed.
They finally leave and walk out of the –
before they come into the room that I'm in bed and go,
hey, bye, mate, great to meet you.
I'm like, yeah, okay, that's good.
You're here.
Then the sister just gives me a bottle of vodka.
There you go.
I'm like, the sun is up.
Go, leave.
They leave.
Then she gets into bed and proceeds.
Anyway.
Here we go.
There was a lot of, I was really starting to go,
well, I'm just going to pass out.
I'm going to sleep.
And then just a lot of another human on me all the time going, come on.
Just come on.
I'm like, just fuck off.
I just need to sleep seriously what
is it's like having a a fully full-sized toddler on you just yeah come on let's play
very bad very bad simile given what's going on wanting to have sex with you yes
you know when you pick up a sexy toddler well i, being honest with you, it wasn't too dissimilar to my child getting
into bed in the morning and just being a pest.
Anyway, I'm going to end this.
You will do no such thing.
Anyway.
Oh, God, it's exhausting.
So which is exactly what was happening.
Have you been up all night now?
At one point, no? At one point No
At one point
I was asleep
And I actually got flipped over
And she woke me up
And I went
Are you familiar
With the concept
Of free agreement
And consent
Because at the moment
You're being really fucking rapey
Anyway
I finally got a tiny little bit of sleep
and then I just had to get up and do stuff for the show.
I had a solo show to do that night at the Comedy Store,
which was I had all this shit I hadn't organised.
I had to print out all this stuff and do some musical stuff.
Yeah, good plug.
Really hype it up.
Yep.
There was lots of stuff to do.
No, I'm an idiot.
I could have done it weeks ago.
I could have had it done ages ago.
Anyway.
Good plug.
If you're around two weeks ago, if you can get back in time and fill the room, that would
be great.
I get to the store and she was coming to the show.
Right.
The toddler.
Sexy toddler was coming.
No, I didn't say anyway.
Right.
Just the crazy person that was in my room.
Yes. Who was a very lovely person that was in my room. Yes.
Who was a very lovely person.
It's a fucking shit story.
I like how you're not wanting to put details out that you're being so vague about who this
person is in case they listen that you won't even give out their gender.
Yes.
Well, it could be anybody at this point, couldn't it?
It doesn't have to be the Sydney comedy store.
It could be the LA comedy saw This might not even be
Harley Brain
This might be
Oliver Clarke's talking
When I had finally asked her
To leave my apartment
Because I had work to do
I said to her
Now
I'm looking forward
To seeing you tonight
At the show
It'd be great
When you come
Don't be drunk
Don't be late
And don't heckle me
Right
And then I said to her Actually I can't tell you what to do in life.
Do whatever the fuck you want.
But those three things, I'd really love it if you didn't do that.
Mum, yeah.
This story just got good.
So in the middle of the show that I was doing, 15 minutes in,
she walked in late.
I heard the rat.
You can't see when the bat.
How do you know that it was her walking in 15 minutes late?
I only know in hindsight.
Right.
I didn't know at the time.
Yeah.
And then, so I'm doing the show.
Halfway through the show, I have this story.
I talk about sort of being single and the fact that I haven't been that lucky in love.
And I go, it hasn't been all that bad.
And I get this bit of material where I talk about chatting up a girl.
I go, I was chatting her up.
She was chatting me up.
We were doing that kind of mutual chatting
where you hope the chatting stops and you just start having sex.
And I hear from off the back of this room,
there's about a – I'm not going to say how many,
because either way, you fuckers will be horrible.
So not many then.
There we go.
Whatever.
I go to see where she is.
So the one person in the crowd yells something out.
There was 120 people in the room and she was up the back
and I just, as I said that line, I just hear this person go, what?
And I went, oh, fuck, in my head.
I went, just keep going.
I kept going with the story.
And then the story goes to where this character that I'm talking to on stage
goes, asks me a question.
And I said to the audience, I think I answered it too abruptly
because, you know, I scared her off.
Because all she asked was, have you ever thought about having more children?
And again, from up the back, she goes, no, I didn't.
Oh.
Oh. Oh.
Hi.
Hey, ladies and gentlemen.
That is actually somebody who I was in bed with this morning.
Thanks for coming along to the show.
But no, this story is not actually about you
because it happened a fucking year ago.
So thanks for being here.
And then just went on with the show.
And then 15 minutes after that, I only know this in hindsight as well,
she was kicked out for unrelated instances.
And she had nowhere to go either.
I'm drunk and disorderly.
Back to the soup kitchen for her.
Yeah. Back to the super engine for her.
Well, it seems like a great wide world out there and I'm sure looking forward to sinking my teeth into it.
And anyway, look, we spoke the next day on Facebook
and she was apologetic and I went, no, it's fine.
I've got closer friends who've done worse.
I'm doing a podcast with them.
So are you going to – do you think you'll see this girl again or –
Oh, probably not.
But you're still catching up with the greasy guy though.
He was great fun.
Good fun.
Hey, at least you got a bottle of vodka out of it.
Yeah.
I did.
They probably just lifted it out of the minibar in your room, to be fair.
No, that was a part of the story I didn't tell.
While I was trying to fall asleep that ridiculous early morning,
she was calling reception.
She was on the phone to reception for half an hour,
booking, getting food and wine and all that.
And after she'd given all her order, the reception went,
this is a service department.
We don't have any of those facilities here.
Try this number.
And she called another number.
Apparently it was the same guy going, yeah, no, we don't have a kitchen.
That'd be pretty funny, like, you know, you rent a house,
you're renting a house and you just call up the landlord
and pretend that you think it's room service.
G'day, mate, just the chicken wings and some chips and he's
going, you rent's overdue fuckhead. Your show was like at 7pm and this girl has got in such
a bad shape that she doesn't know what's going on at like 7.15.
Yeah, she wasn't, well, she was having a great time. She was doing a lot of drinking anyway.
Good on her.
Well done.
But just maybe, you know, don't come into the show.
You can just keep drinking.
Had she paid for a ticket?
No, that's the best part.
There's no win for old Breen out of this one.
Well, I look forward to seeing this on DVD when it comes out.
You were filming that night, yeah?
I nearly was.
Oliver Clarke, now you did a gig at Comedy at the Spleen
and that's a room I co-run that's come up on the podcast before.
We all gigged down there.
Harley Brain right here is a former Spleen comedian of the year.
Love it.
It's my favourite room.
Yeah.
We gigged – oh, you gigged at Comedy at Spleen on this last Monday.
Did indeed.
And you know what?
A lot of stuff goes on.
Like it's been running for six years,
so we've got some stories that have come out of Comedy at Spleen.
There's actually a story that prefaces this that we haven't talked about.
We did talk about the time where someone shat themselves in
the seat in the audience.
In about the fourth row back in the audience.
And very recently there
was
a weird night and there was
a girl in probably
the third, fourth row that didn't laugh
all night and it just happened that the spotlight
hit her. So everyone was coming off stage going
is this girl that just isn't laughing all night? And just happened that the spotlight hit her so everyone was coming off stage going this girl that just
isn't laughing all night
and I think David Quirk
friend of the show
came out at the end
of the night
he was the last act on
and he sort of
pointed her and went
you haven't laughed
during this whole act
you're really not
into me are you
you're really not
enjoying this
and she sort of
pretty stonewall face
and we get to the end
of the show
and some of the
crowd members came up
and went
just so you know
what she was doing during the show
was giving a hand job to her boyfriend in the gig.
Excellent.
Whoa!
Shit.
I've got to go to Spleen more often.
So, yeah, at an open mic gig, she just – and she's at like third, fourth row.
That's pretty ballsy.
Yeah.
But what's – I don't know if I'd want anyone giving me a wristy
without any expression on their face.
Yeah, that still doesn't explain it.
You can give a handjob and still laugh at some great open mic comedy
happening on a Monday night for free entry right in front of you.
Yeah, the laughing jiggle would help the wristy.
Yeah.
Well, I guess she was just concentrating.
The laughing jiggle.
So hang on, for the whole gig,
so this is like some kind of tantric handjob
that's lasting two and a half hours.
Something here doesn't add up.
She took a break at half time to get a drink, I think.
Start to explain why she wasn't laughing.
You can't be wanking the whole time.
Yeah, but can you laugh and do that at the same time?
Well, I have.
I shudder to think what she...
Look what I'm doing.
This is ridiculous.
I'm doing it again.
I shudder to think what she threw into the donation bucket
at the end of the gig.
Great night, boys.
Just give it a little in there.
Guys, have you enjoyed it to put your hands together.
Oh, I'm stuck.
Just walks past and goes.
So anyway, let's add to the stories from Comedy Explained.
So this last Monday night, Oliver Clarke was on.
If you've seen the great Oliver Clarke was on.
If you've seen the great Oliver Clarke do Stand Up Before He,
how would you describe your outfit?
It's show-busy Vegas style.
Yes.
A blue tuxedo.
A blue tuxedo, very shiny.
A velvet suit.
Satin.
Satin and velvet.
Yeah, bow tie, the works. The whole thing.
Obviously, you're coming in, you've got your gear with you
so you can change into it in the venue.
You're not rocking up wearing that.
Well I knew I was going to be, well I didn't know I was going to be on at
half time but once I saw the list I thought, oh I'll wait till
half time to get changed and then I'll
be on. Wait till that girl in the fourth row takes
a break. Takes a break, yeah.
So you,
Carl just mimed taking
a break from a handjob.
It was a good mime, to be fair.
He went up and down, up and down, stop.
Sort of stopped.
It was such a better mime than when I was miming eating breakfast
at this audition this morning.
That was terrible.
Oh, mime audition.
Oh, yeah, it was so bad.
So Oliver Cogill was on second half.
You went and got changed?
Went and got changed halfway through in the little nook upstairs near the manager's office.
Backstage, yeah.
Yeah, backstage.
Which there's a toilet next door.
Yes, yes.
So that little nook.
Yes.
So I got changed, put my regular clothes, civilian clothes into the bag, then went downstairs
and hung out with the comics waiting to go on.
Yep.
And then went on and performed
Went on and performed
Yep
Great gig, great crowd
Yes
Then
Then
The end of the night concludes
Well, that's the conclusion
Went upstairs
Went and packed my bag up a bit more
Went to grab it and walk away and went
Hang on a second, where are my jeans?
Started looking for my jeans
They were nowhere to be seen
i'm going well okay this is weird because i know i put my jeans here it's not like your keys and
wallet where you might just put everywhere else it's like i put them here when i got changed
and they're not here now so i thought maybe a comic was having a lend asked a few people
yourself we're a bloody cheeky bunch yeah you know and I thought well it's not that funny but I'll give you
credit anyway
the ultimate prank
yeah
you thought
you'd lost your pants
rang up the chaser
so it seemed
they'd done anything
no it wasn't them
it is a good prank
oh
yeah
so you're getting
quite concerned
very concerned
that I asked you
I said where are they
couldn't find them
yeah
so then what happens at Spleen is it's this weird set up where Ivan, the owner,
has got a bit of an obsession with CCTV, I think.
Yeah.
If you come in and have a look, there's a TV in the bar that shows like 16 different angles of the bar,
which is weird because it's a shithole of a bar.
It's tiny.
It's small, yeah.
Yeah, and it's pretty run down.
It's like there's 16 angles of every,
it's like no one's going to, you know,
I think they're just stopping people
from coming in and doing renovations
or something like that.
But it's also, it's like
there's all those angles of surveillance
yet none of the doors lock properly.
Yeah.
So if you're concerned,
just make it a bit more secure.
Don't just have these cameras
so you can just see the people
when they're up there.
It's like Sliver. and Ivan's the guy in charge
with all the angles.
So he's concentrating on that but there's like a cockroach infestation
in the place.
But he's concentrating on the high tech.
But to be honest, I think those cameras are there for purely people
not having sex in that place because after midnight it gets debaucherous.
Mate, it's a mess that place.
It is a mess but it's a fun mess.
Wasn't this the story That they used to have
These like big lock-in
Sex parties up there
At like 3am or something
I heard that happened
A few times
Yeah, I heard that
Again, I gotta start
Going down to Splendor
I think that's when
They installed the cameras
After that
Yeah
To catch them
Yeah
I haven't heard one person
Had sex in the toilet
And you just put
Cameras
Yeah, yeah
Just sat there ready
Yeah Yeah Yeah, yeah so you come
down and this is the point where um i'm at the bar you come down and go oh my jeans are gone you know
so then i uh the owner ivan he's got access to all those cameras yeah he takes you straight
upstairs into his little bat cave that he has up there with all the cameras whatever now he goes
up there you start watching footage.
They rewind through footage and the thing that happens downstairs
at the bar is there's a big screen
and we can see exactly what you're seeing
upstairs. Yeah, it's a feed.
Yeah, it's a feed. It's linked. So you can't,
we're not watching anything else except for what
you're watching. And generally they use that because there's a camera
pointed at the stage for the
gig and because the front bit is full
so like in the back bit of the bar you can, like people can still see the stage for the gig and because the front bit is full so in the back bit of the bar
people can still see the gig on the screen.
Just for context, that's why there's a big screen behind the bar.
So they could just turn the screen off
for this process but they haven't.
Absolutely.
What he's doing is he's got an audience in the bar.
Yes. I'm in the bar, I'm watching.
So it's you and Teresa behind the bar.
She's also quite concerned about
my pants.
We're sitting there watching So we're watching.
We're sitting there watching what you're watching upstairs,
rewinding, fast-forwarding, rewinding,
getting to a point where we can see you getting changed,
not getting changed, but we can see you hanging your pants out,
then going backstage, whatever, and then we're going,
okay, it's got to come up.
All of a sudden we see like very quickly this sort of figure.
Figure.
Grab the pants, put it behind his back. Well, we don sort of figure grab the pants put it behind
his back
well we don't see him
grab the pants
but we see him
go into the toilet
with a jacket on
and a t-shirt underneath
come out
only with the t-shirt
and a parcel
wrapped up in his hands
like
like
looking a little dodgy
you know
carrying something
behind his back
yeah
I don't know
what was going on
but we went that looks dodgy let's freeze frame that his back as well, I think. Yeah, yeah. I don't know what was going on. But we went, that looks dodgy.
Let's freeze frame that.
So I'm watching that in the bar.
And as I'm watching that in the bar, I'm looking at the guy going, that's a comedian that's
been on tonight.
That's a guy that I, it's a guy, you know, sometimes we have people on that we haven't
really met before.
So he's a guy that's a traveller that's gone, hit me up a few weeks ago.
Can I get on?
Yeah, sure.
I'm like, is that that guy? Is it that guy that's a traveller that's gone hit me up a few weeks ago can I get on yeah sure I'm like is that that guy is
it that guy that's
great and I look
around and the
bar like two
people away from
me he's at the
bar drinking
watching it this
guy so he's I
look at him and
then I look up at
the screen and I'm
like when's the
penny gonna
and he keeps
rewinding it fast
forwarding and we're
just getting doubly
triply sure
is this gonna be
the guy is this to be the guy.
Is this the New Zealand guy? Yes.
Ooh, baby.
So we're watching this New Zealand comic who
incidentally had hit me up for a gig and going,
I'm a professional comic. I'm like, well,
after seeing his act, I don't know, I think
he's earning his money through stolen goods or
something. Brilliant.
So I'm watching it and going,
oh, oh, oh Oh Looking back and forth
Then this guy
Looks at the
And realises what's going on
With the security footage
Starts watching it
And I'm like
And I watch back the footage
And go
It's him
And I turn around
And this guy
Mid swig of a beer
Has just gone
Dropped it
And then gone
Walked out the door
Mid conversation
He's like chatting up a girl
And then he's like,
we go back to your place, like, oh, I think I'll just go home.
And then walks out the door and I yell at Teresa, the bugger,
and go, is it him on the screen?
I've got to find out because I'm going to run after this guy.
We've got to find out if it's the guy.
And she goes, I don't know, I think it is.
I go, run upstairs, ask Oliver, is this the guy?
Because I can't just crash tackle him if it's not him.
And so she runs up.
I walk out and watch him walk down the main street,
walk down Bourke Street.
I'm keeping an eye on him going, oh.
And then she runs out and goes, it's him.
And then we just Starsky and Hutch style just run down the street
and chase this guy, run after him for a block, grab him.
And then he just goes, goes, what's going on?
And I'm like, where are the jeans?
We know about the jeans.
We know about the jeans, buddy.
And he's like, what are you talking about?
And it's that horrible moment where you go, oh, my God,
what if this guy isn't this guy?
We've made a huge mistake.
You just run after a guy going, where's your jeans?
Jeans!
You're already in.
You're like American History X style
getting him to bite down on the curve.
He's like, I swear to God,
I don't know anything about the jeans.
And he's keeping up his front as a thief would do.
He's just going, I don't know what's,
I don't know, I don't know what you're doing.
And I'm like, let's go back because there's footage of you with the jeans.
Awesome.
And he's going.
What have you just been like, you know what you've done.
You've committed a terrible act.
And then you take him back and you just show him surveillance footage
of his gig from earlier.
You went 30 seconds over.
Come back and say sorry
Yeah, I've been with a joke about rooting a sheep
So I'm like trying to figure out what to say
I haven't thought it through at all
And I'm just going
And he goes, what do you want me to do?
And I'm like, well, come back and watch the footage of you with the jeans
Did he admit to it at this point?
No, no, no
He's just playing that dead back to me
Just going, oh, what do you want me to do? And I'm No, no, no. He's just saying that. He's still denying it. He's just playing that dead back to me, just going,
oh, what do you want me to do?
And I'm like, well, get the jeans back.
And he's like, well, I don't know what you're talking about.
I don't know what I'm supposed to do with you.
And I'm like, oh, well, just come back.
Just come back with me.
And he's like, okay, well, I don't know what that's going to do,
but okay, we'll come back.
And I go, all right, good.
And so we walk back like 50 metres and he goes,
yeah, I took the jeans.
So where did he have them at that point?
Well, I don't know because I'm just guiding him back and going,
I don't know what to say.
And he's going, yeah, look, it's a long story.
I'm like, I don't know how long story. The story goes, it goes, I stole the jeans.
I walked into a room, saw some jeans, took the jeans.
I done took the jeans.
That's an unnecessarily long version of a story.
And even that's really short.
When I was a kid, my dad never let me have jeans.
Look.
He was wearing chinos, I think.
Was he really?
On the night of.
Did you get the jeans back?
Let's not skip ahead.
It's in depth.
I feel like you've found a jean robber.
Oh, no, no, no.
That's half of it.
That's half of it.
That's half of it.
Wow.
Yeah, let's have a break for that girl to stop masturbating
and get back into it.
I have a gig to go to in March.
Come on, Harley.
It's not the destination.
It's the journey.
Yeah.
So we're walking back with him.
We're sort of frog marching him back,
and he's just sort of going, oh, it's a long story,
and I don't know. And I'm like, of going, oh, it's a long story. And I don't know.
And I'm like, man, I don't want to hear the story.
It sounds, what sort of story could there possibly be?
I said, you're just lucky Oliver Clarke is a nice guy.
Because if you had stolen my jeans, I would be really angry with you.
And he's like, yeah, look, it's the first time I've done a gig in Melbourne.
It's probably not a good first impression.
Oh, no, no.
I'll book you again.
It'll be as jeans guy.
Yeah.
Just jeans.
Just jeans.
So we walk you back.
Just in time for all of us to walk out of the bar.
Yeah.
And look, you are sunshine and rainbow all the time.
You're one of the nicer guys I know.
And I thought I could see you try and be nice.
Instead, you sort of looked at him and went, yeah,
what are you doing with the jeans?
And I'm like, I can't be here anymore.
I'm going to dip out at this stage.
Both, yeah, you and Trace fucked off and left me to have a chat
with the guy.
But it was funny because I saw him and I saw the look on his face
that looked so guilty.
I was going, did you take the jeans?
And he just goes, oh, yeah.
And he's running his hands through his hair.
He's almost got tears welling up in his eyes as well.
And I go, so where are they?
And he's like, oh, I could show you.
But, well, look, I had a bit of an accident.
And I was like, oh, here we oh here we go okay yeah keep going on
he goes well you know i can show you the evidence but it's just not pretty i was like so what the
fuck happened and he goes well before he was on after me in the gig by the way yeah he went up
to the toilet after i'd got changed done himself himself a mischief. Crapped his pants.
But how do you do that in a toilet?
He said, yeah, so there's a few holes in his story.
There's a few holes in his story.
Wait, so this is before he's been on or after he's been on?
Before.
Before.
He shit himself before a gig.
And his reason, he said, was bad dumplings or something, right?
Right.
Pretty generic.
Sure.
Yeah.
Anyway, he goes, yeah, so, and then I had to throw the undies away,
which could have been in the package he was carrying down the stairs.
I wonder what lucky lady he was going to give that to. Yeah, I know.
My darling.
Well, he did see her in the audience.
He was the only one to notice it.
He was like, ooh, she looks like she'd like this as a prize.
So he said he got rid of the undies and he goes,
oh, then I was free-balling and I knew that if I went on stage
I might shit myself again.
Then I saw your jeans, put them on under my existing pants
and I go, what?
So you're wearing my jeans right now?
And he goes, yes.
Oh.
And I go, well, they probably got shit on them or something. He's like, well, it's a mess. And I go, well, they probably got shit on them or something.
He's like, well, it's a mess.
And I went, okay.
And this is where I figured the biggest hole in the story is,
why would he hang around afterwards when you got stinky shit pants on?
He's just done a very good con job on you
because he knows there's no way you're going to ask to look at that.
I know.
Yeah, exactly.
And I really should have.
I really should have.
Yeah, because we're talking afterwards going, yeah, you
should have said, show me your shit.
Show me the shit and show me the jeans.
Okay, but so we're saying we don't buy it. Well then what's
the lie covering? What's the real story?
Stealing jeans. Stealing jeans.
He sourced jeans. He wanted the jeans.
He stole the jeans. He just wants jeans.
That's it. He just wants jeans. Yeah.
I don't buy it.
Well, were they a good pair of jeans?
They were pretty good.
Are they the ones you're wearing now?
Oh, so he didn't get it back?
Are they what I'm wearing right now? They're a lovely jean.
Not bad jeans.
Are they the ones I'm wearing now, did you ask?
Yeah, did you get it back?
Oh, no.
Okay.
No, I said at the end of that, I just went, he goes,
oh, we can work this out, we can work this out.
I was just like, well, look, I don't want the shit-covered jeans.
You take them.
He goes, oh, you know, I'll pay for them.
I don't want your money.
And then just walked off. You in your silk He goes, oh, you know, I'll pay for them. I don't want your money. And then just walked off.
You in your silk pants. Yeah.
In style.
And anyway, so I get a Facebook
message when I get home from him
and just pleading
to pay for the pants.
And to not tell the story publicly.
And to not tell a single soul.
And you've made the right choice.
Because fuck you, Pansy Man.
So you've got this guy's details, Carl, because he asked you for the gig.
Yes.
Have you followed up with him?
No, but what I want to say.
Not a simple, it's crook what you've done.
It's crook at the very least.
No, I'd rather leave it open so that when.
So you're not going to name him?
No, I don't think we do. Do we need to name him? No, I don't think we...
Do we need to name him?
No, I don't think so.
No, I don't think so.
I think it's probably...
I think it'd be fun if we named him, but anyway.
Yeah, it could be, but...
You know what?
We've given out enough clues when he was on,
what sort of person he was.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
You can go back.
I agree.
You can go and find the evidence.
Yep.
But I left...
I didn't respond to his Facebook message
just because I didn't really feel like it.
I was thinking maybe just blocking him.
I don't really want anything to do with the guy, you know.
Yeah, he stole your pants and shit in them.
Yeah.
Well, you'd be the worst human if you then went, yeah, let's be friends.
Right.
Like, I would not trust you.
Come over.
I've got heaps of jeans.
Because, you know, shitting your pants is one thing.
That's fine.
Yeah.
Shitting another man.
Everyone does it.
It's been done. That's fine. Shitting another man Everyone does it It's been done
That's fine
More sympathy I could not have
Sure
But when you then
Bring me into your situation
By stealing my pants
But you shit in someone else's pants
That's a whole different problem
Like if you're that sick
It's a whole confusion sake
Yeah
If you're just sick
Yeah you just go to
Whoever's running the gig
And go man
I've got to go home
I'm sorry
I'm really cruel
Yeah but see That's what Oliver said.
Like, he shit himself.
Then, you know, apparently, hypothetically, he shit himself.
Then done the gig with shit in his pants.
He'd obviously wiped up a storm.
Like, he'd obviously wiped up a lot.
There's a lot of holes.
Then hung out afterwards.
Yeah.
Hanging out afterwards.
Because I tell you what, shit.
Drinking in the bar.
Shit, when it's not in water, stinks. Like, it re afterwards. Yeah. Hanging out afterwards. Because I tell you what, shit. Drinking in the bar. Shit when it's not in water stinks.
Like it reeks.
Yeah.
Yeah, you guys were backstage with him.
You would have.
Would have smelled something.
You would have been smelling him there at the bar.
Yeah.
I agree.
Yeah.
Anyway.
You've got to hit him up.
You've got to hit him up and go, look, I just, look, whatever, man.
I've just got to know.
Just come clean with me.
There's no shit is there.
You just wanted the jeans.
You just saw the jeans and you went, I'll have them.
You should do that.
Message him now.
See if we can get a response within the time limit of wrapping up this podcast.
We've got another five or so minutes on the clock.
Just send him a message and say, hey.
Well, look, in between the time I didn't get back to him,
he sent me another one saying, look, I've just bought your gift voucher.
Well see, but that's
where I'm confused and conflicted because
his want to pay you
and his constant
offering suggests that he
may indeed have shit his pants.
I know, but at the same time, he
didn't confess straight away
to Carl. Get him on the phone. Call him up right now and get him on the phone.
And his perception of a mess could be quite different to what we're imagining
and maybe it's just the fact that now he doesn't have any jocks.
Yeah.
Here's the message he sent to Comedy Explained.
Hey there, look, I'm sure Oliver has filled you in on what happened
and why I did what I did.
That's a thumbs up.
Before I went on stage.
I feel terrible and I'm so embarrassed I did. That's a thumbs up. Before I went on stage. I feel terrible
and I'm so embarrassed. I'm not that
sort of guy
to shit your pants.
I'm not the classic shit yourself sort of guy.
Maybe this is why he's over in Melbourne. He got run
out of New Zealand for just stealing
pants left, right and centre.
I'm not that sort of guy and it was a stupid
movement in a moment of panic. I'm
sorting it out with Oliver. I really hope that this of guy and it was a stupid movement in a moment of panic. I'm sorting it out with Oliver.
I really hope that this doesn't get out too much and affect my reputation too much here in Melbourne.
Awesome.
Other than that, it was a great gig and I was honoured to be part of it.
Is that what he said?
Brilliant. Oh, wow. Wow. Brilliant
Oh wow
Wow
It is an honour though
To have the chance
To steal pants
Of such high calibre acts
High calibre pants
Oh mate
I would love to get my hands on them
I mean Tommy Little
Was on that night
You know
He's doing well
He's doing breakfast radio
He was on breakfast radio coin
Oh imagine you
Nabbing yourself
That pair of jeans That'd be That's a good game That's some good jeans Oh He's on Breakfast Radio coin. Oh, imagine you nabbing yourself that pair of jeans.
That's a good game.
That's some good jeans.
Oh, you could get some good money for them on the black market.
You go backstage at Spleen.
We've got the five previous Spleen Comics of the Year in a frame.
I've got a suggestion for this year's one.
It has to be this guy.
It can't not be this guy.
Of course it can be.
I'm on the panel.
I think it's more of a thing of, like, this is obviously more sought after.
Let's give out a pair of pants instead of a trophy.
The Spleen Comic of the Year, they get a new pair of pants.
No, you've got to make Pansy the Spleen Comic of the Year.
The Spleen Comic of the Year this year has to be Pansy.
That would be so good.
You would be
the ants pants.
Wow.
Wow.
Well,
is there any more?
Is there any more?
Okay,
so he said,
I'll send you
a gift voucher.
What to?
To what shop?
I don't know,
but he said,
to get yourself
a pair of pants
or two.
So,
I'm hoping it's kind of sizable.
You know what?
I don't really give a shit.
You're coming out on top of it though.
You've got two pairs of pants.
Yeah, could get a few pairs.
But he goes, I'll send it to you when I'm back in Kiwiland,
which indicates that I'm probably not going to see that.
No.
Yeah, you know.
Or it's for a shop in New Zealand.
Yeah, exactly.
I'll get you this Australian gift voucher
and then post it from New Zealand.
Yeah.
So serial liar is what I'm sort of post it from New Zealand. Yeah. So, serial liar
is what I'm sort of classifying this
guy under. Yeah. He did have a glint
in his eye. Did you see that?
No, there was a glint
of his odour. Oh, God.
There was a glint in his arsehole.
At the very least,
hit him up and say, what was this dumplings restaurant
so we know never to go there?
I'm writing a message right now.
Look, what's done is done, but I'm
intrigued. Seriously.
Was there any shit?
Or did you just want to steal the joke?
Or did you just want
those pants?
Thanks.
P.S.
Great set, by the way. Yeah, yeah. P.S. Did he do a good set? P.S. Great set by the way
Yeah yeah
P.S.
Did he do a good set?
P.S.
Honoured to have you
That's what I've seen
Alright
Let's see if I get a message
You will now that you said
Honoured to have you
The fucker won't be able
To help himself
Yeah
Alright so is this time I think this is time for Oh we're pretty much have you? The fucker won't be able to help himself. Yeah.
All right.
So is this time?
I think this is time for... Oh, we're pretty much almost near the end,
but we can go out on a rad dad.
Yeah, that's what we're going to do.
Cool.
All right.
I can't just promise it to all the hordes of fans
at the same episode and not follow through,
unlike the Kiwi guy did.
Yeah, okay, sure.
Well, guys, just to buy us some time
while we wait to hear back from this man,
Yeah, okay, sure.
Well, guys, yeah, just to buy us some time while we wait to hear back from this man, time now for the return of Australia's favourite
and most longest running and best radio serial, Rad Dad.
Rad Dad.
It's Rad Dad here and I'm here to say I'm just ratting around in the Rad Dad.
What's wrong, Rad Dad?
Jenny, look, what I'm about to tell you is going to be hard for you to believe.
It may even make you think less of me.
Impossible, Rad Dad.
I mean, in a lot of ways, you probably see me as a bit of a father figure.
So, look, believe it or not, I just got dumped.
Whoa, that absolutely shocks me, Rad Dad. You mean to say a woman was seeing you?
I know, I know, it's hard to believe that someone you look up to
Someone who you see as the epitome of manhood
Someone who owns more Mossimo gear than anyone else in the Southern Hemisphere
Can be rejected by someone
What happened?
I don't know what it was, Jenny
Maybe it was too much Mossimo, not enough hot
tuna gear. Maybe she couldn't accept
that she'd never be as important to me as Papa
Roach. Or maybe it was that neck tattoo you
got yesterday of a topless Shannon Doherty.
Who knows, Jenny? Women are a mystery.
You'll learn that when you grow up
and become a woman
and become a mystery.
The only mystery here is how you ever got
laid and how I was ever born.
What's that, Jenny?
Oh, I was just making a complimentary remark about how Shannon Doherty really brings out your Adam's apple.
Thanks, Jenny.
Look, don't you worry about me.
It's 2014.
It's never been easier for me to meet people thanks to the internet.
Just today, I downloaded an app that is sure to sort out my relationship snafu
I've made a few connections online and well, actually
There should be a knock on the door very soon
There we go
What's happening, Red Dead?
Well, I've reacted to my relationship breakdown in the most adult way I can think of
I've organised a threesome
Now Jenny, if you can go watch Fraggle Rock or whatever you kids are into these days
I'll just
open this door as I speak to unveil
the beautiful vixens who will totally
get up in my... Oh, holy shit.
Don't tell me
you're Rad Dad.
Fuck me dead. What a dumb
looking sack of shit. Oh,
wait, wait, this may not be him. Excuse
me, sir, but do you have a much
less ugly and stupid looking brother?
Who are you guys?
We're the guys who arranged to have a threesome with you today.
On Grindr?
Braddad, Grindr is a networking app for gay men.
How was I supposed to know that?
Grindr?
It sounds like a place to meet cool skateboarding chicks.
Oh, dude, a gay app?
Oh, I can totally understand where I've gotten confused
and thought you guys were girls,
because your name is...
Adrian?
Right, and your name is...
Robert.
Okay, I'm not sure where I was on that one.
Well, look, let me tell you, boys,
this has been more than a bit of a shock for me.
Yeah, well, it's been a complete waste of our time looking at you.
Well, I mean mean We're gay
But we're not
That gay
I mean I'm straight
But to be completely honest
I'd still like to get into one of your pants
But why?
Because I've shit mine
Rad Dad
Rad Dad is filming in front of a live studio audience
Well Rad Dad is filming in front of a live studio audience Hell Fucking hell
I think we can all agree that episode was an honour to be a part of
Another triumph
The Bard
I feel just as dirty as that New Zealand comic guy did after he did what he did
