I bought back Tim Kelly, a hilarious comic in Christchurch to the show where we talked about the stand up comedians and comedy specials that we watched growing up and why they resonated with us.

The final episode of Hoss Town for 2024! The boys started this project up when they were a bit less busy but as things have picked up with comedy, it's been harder to nail the Dons down at the same time to record. In this episode of Hoss Town, the Fellas contemplate losing a subscriber, Taylor being mistaken for Matt, and then Matt being mistaken for Ron Mac, Taylor was heckled by another fat guy and blew his top. They yap about climbing trees, and Matt has a theory about hosses that appear in fairy tales. Taylor had his first experience at a proper barber. The lads end on a sombre note as Taylor's family cat passed away recently and both of Matt's have been dealing with various health issues. See you in 2025 for more Hoss Town!

Hoss Town is a monthly podcast by two big boys respectfully making some noise, stand up comedians Taylor Ruddle & Matt Lilley. The aforementioned Mayors of Hoss Town take a lighthearted look at masculinity in modern times - it's a journey of trying to find a balance between being Cavemen and Scholars with plenty of belly laughs along the way. -

Hot dog! It's episode 100! That's just under 2 years of Ruddle Me This in the can!
I consumed a lot of good media in 2024 and in this episode I talk a little bit about each one without getting toooo spoilery. I assume that most of the listeners of this pod will have similar taste in media as me, so I hope you'll go out and find something you love from this list.

In 2024 I attempted a creative project known as What Do We Reckon? Which was inspired by things such as Game Changer, 7 Days, Have You Been Paying Attention, Mock The Week and so on. We thought we could possibly create a similar format but make it more internet-y and less high budget and we were hoping that if the jokes were good enough, the lack of production value wouldn't matter to much. We created 10 weeks of episodes, usually dropping 3 videos a week and after 10 we decided to put it on ice to focus on other things, or possibly retool it and bring it back in the hopes it might get a bit more attention. The videos unfortunately never really connected and so I thought it'd be fun to talk about why we think the project didn't really take off, and I brought Geoff Wilson and Steven Lyons onto the show to do that, as they were both contributors to the project. Bear in mind this episode is very "inside baseball" so may not be for everyone!

This week I am joined by Emz or Emily of the Kowhai Fan Fest, happening here in Christchurch on the 18th of January 2025! Emz wears many hats for the fest, but her skills are predominantly in marketing, branding and comms. As we learnt over the course of this conversation she and I actually had a very similar career up until recently as she also studied Graphic Design and worked for many cool places, and lived in Japan for a bit. We talked a lot about what makes the Kowhai Fan Fest unique, what their ethos or kaupapa is and what people can expect from the 2025 fest. Emily's a really driven and lovely person, so I think you'll enjoy this one!

In this episode I'm joined by Dave Adams, a comedian and family man based here in Christchurch and we delved into some threads from Reddit's r/AmITheAsshole which has become a favourite pasttime of mine to read. We picked a couple of interesting threads to talk about and Dave shared some great wisdom about both. We also discussed the NZ culture of FIsh n' Chips and there was a bit of pro wrestling talk, as you can imagine. Dave was also tickled pink to learn that I own multiple replica swords.
AITA's Covered:
AITA because I ate more than "my share" of a 6 foot party sub last night?
AITA For telling my wife to take time off work if she wants time for herself?

Today I sat down with Dan Burgess-Milne, a Christchurch based Meditation and Dharma teacher, game theory educator and rapper. Dan performed a presentation called Shifting Paradigms at Nerd Nite and was put in touch with me through the good folk at Nerd Nite. I was quite worried I wasn't going to be able to keep up with some of the concepts Dan talked about in his presentation but after sitting down with him for an hour I actually do really understand his presentation a lot better, I hope this podcast might help you too! The other massive revelation I had from this podcast was getting a better understanding of Meditation, and how the way most people practice it is actually only doing half of what meditation is supposed to be about. It was really eye opening, and I hope you enjoy it!
Get in touch with Dan here, he's got some cool stuff in the works!

I've teamed up with Logan Robinson of Robinson Wellness, he's a legit therapist (Registered Social Worker and Mental Health Coach), I tell jokes for money (sometimes) and we spent an hour discussing mental health issues submitted by my listeners.
Here's what we talked about:
My work is currently starting the redundancy process which is really scary. The job market is terrifying at the moment and it's hard not to think that I'm going to lose my job and not get another one for months.Why is everyone so fucking stupid?Grief. My grandfather passed away at aged 90, after being in decline for honestly a few years. I’m struggling with guilt because I feel numb. I’m not crying, I’m not angry… nothing. Haven’t seen him in ten years, as he lives in England, but he is still my grandfather and I miss him even more now. What can I do to help grieve his passing in a healthy way?Anxiety and panic attacksMissing youDealing with the constant whiplash of the government doing stupid things at every turn

Another great interview for you, this week I'm joined by comedian, surfer, photographer, civil engineer, wine maker and much more - Elisa Bonnafous! Elisa hails from France and is currently residing in Auckland where she's a cornerstone in the local stand up scene. We initially intended on talking about international travel but as the conversation got started it turned into more talking about the mutual experience we have of being an immigrant in a new country and how that affects your identity, as well as learning a new language and how that can change your personality somehow. We talk about Elisa's exploits in stand up, and what it's like performing in your second language as well as working on a solo hour. There's also plenty of talk about wine making and as you can imagine, the Roman Empire comes up towards the end! Hope you enjoy.

This episode is a rollercoaster from start to finish! I'm joined by coffee merchant, musician, sometimes comedian, potential future mayor of Christchurch, amateur box-ticker, businessman and Crystal Pineapple guild administrator - it's Mark "Chirny" Chirnside!
I've been aware of Mark for several years and so it was great that he was able to stop by and have a chat on the podcast. We talked a lot about applying for arts funding, the fallacies and pitfalls of institutions and what steps he's taken to future-proof his own ones, there's HEAPS of coffee chat, we talked about the intricacies of the coffee community here in Christchurch, and then we end with Mark telling me about the Crystal Pineapple project, it's truly a fascinating wee tale that came out of nowhere and had me enthralled from start to finish.
Mark's Coffee shop Crafted Coffee Company can be found at 121 Blenheim Road, Christchurch, and on facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/thecraftedcoffeecompany

The first ever Ruddle Me This crossover episode! In this episode I'm doing a swapcast with Simone Whitlow from The Tales of History & Imagination Podcast! I'm trying to do a better job at connecting with other podcasters and this was a good first step. In this episode we chat about Simone's history performing in music, as well as how she got into history and then decided to create a whole podcast around it. We also spoke about Forteana which was something new I learnt about, somewhat hard to explain but you can read all about it on wikipedia, but described by Charles Fort as a "distinctive blend of mocking humor, penetrating insight, and calculated outrageousness"
The blurb of Simone's show is: Ever heard the Tale of the man who tried to kill time as we know it? The mysterious beast which stalked a remote French village in the 1760s? What about the time a prankster ‘Zipped’ two Chicago television stations? Tales of History and Imagination tells the Tales from history less told. We discuss strange, enigmatic characters, the cameo roles in life’s play, and, sometimes, major events from a viewpoint rarely seen.
If you'd like to check out Simone's show, visit https://historyandimagination.com/ and you can listen in there, or just search for Tales of History & Imagination on your favourite podcatcher!

Sorry squad, we've missed our Hoss Town upload for the month, Matt came down with a ripper of a migraine on the filming day and that was unfortunately my last window before a super busy 2 week period including a gig on the road and the taping of my special, so Hoss Town shall return in 2025!
Luckily I have 1 more podcast in my Break Glass in case of emergency folder, and this week I've got Hamish Mabon-Ross back on the podcast to discuss all the crime tv shows we enjoyed as well as talk about why seemingly straight laced innocent men such as ourselves love watching crime shows. We talk about Sons of Anarchy, The Wire, Breaking Bad, The Sopranos and a handful of others. Hope you enjoy it!

It's another bonus episode! This week I'm joined by my dear friend JinJin from back in Japan. We reminisced about the time we performed an improv show at a hostel in the middle of nowhere to an audience of Chinese tourists with me only speaking English, the other 2 only speaking Japanese, and the tourists speaking neither, somehow it was actually a really fun show. We catch up on how JinJin has been and what kind of shows he is performing on as an improviser and musician in Japan, as well as how he got interested in Improv, as well as what's the difference between stand-up, rakugo, and manzai. It was a great little catch up and JinJin is just an amazing guy, so positive and enthusiastic, he always gives 110%.

Shockingly fast, here's another Volume of The Phantom Files! This time featuring four chilling tales and I also share my findings after getting out into the field and doing some research at a pretty commonly accepted haunted location in my town - The Riccarton House! I spoke to a guide there who told me that they were sensitive to spirits and have had several encounters over the years. We also feature the tales: The Devil Went Out To Dinner, The Apartment Fire, The Full English, and The Lobby Time Slip. I hope you enjoy!

The Phantom Files, a subseries of the Ruddle Me This! podcast featuring paranormal stories from all over New Zealand; Cryptids, Ghosts, UFOs and everything else from beyond the veil. All of the stories have been submitted by real people, and often recorded and told in their own voices. It's not a show about ridiculing, debunking or discrediting paranormal experiences, more about sharing cosy spooky stories. If you like M.R. James, Spooked, Shadows At The Door, Monsters Among Us or The NoSleep Podcast, you'll love The Phantom Files! -
This week I'm joined by local Christchurch Musician Ruby Kush! I booked a meeting room in the central Christchurch Library, Turanga and we recorded the episode there as something a bit different. We talked about her history as a musician, how she got started releasing tracks and what it's like trying to make a living as a musician in Christchurch. We also talked about her activisim and what angles she might take next year moving into politics at a local level. We bonded over a mutual childhood experience of watching Sailor Moon and Cardcaptors and then ended with some looser, more off the wall questions such as "What's your favourite struggle meal?" and "What's one food from history you'd like to go back in time and try?" It's a great episode and I reckon keep your eye on Ruby over the next year, she'll be popping off before long!

Wowza what a guest I have for you this week! It's TV's Courtney Dawson! If you follow comedy then Courtney will be very familiar to you. I was lucky enough to catch Courtney while she was down for a few days and recorded this hilarious podcast. One of the funniest people in NZ on and off stage. We talked about things such as: how does a white person give a Pepeha? Her father's history of doing Mr Beast-like challenges and especially his latest one - Poppy's Comedy Club opened in his very own garage. Courtney tells us about a potentially paranormal experience she had, and about the time she foiled a vintage clothing store robbery, with a whole pile of laughs along the way. Hope you enjoy!
Like Courtney said at the end: just google her, otherwise find her on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/cdawsoxx/

I recently watched the film Manjhi – The Mountain Man, about Dashrath Manjhi, a real life Indian man who carved a road through a mountain using only hand tools over the course of 22 years to make a road for his village to get to a nearby bigger village, reducing the travel time from 2 hours to around 40 minutes. I've always been fascinated with India in general, especially after growing up watching Russell Peters specials, and years ago I watched a special by Hamish And Andy of Australia where they explored India. I'm just curious about other countries in general so Ben Vyas, a local comedian on the scene was kind enough to join me on the pod and chat about India, Mountain Man, Ganesh, his Hindu faith in general and just any other questions I had in general about the country. We ended up getting really deep at the end and I realized in the middle of my conversation with Ben why this Mountain Man story has resonated with me so much. I hope you enjoy it!

In this episode, I brought back my regular compadre, Hamish Mabon-Ross to discuss the Young Adult horror vampire novel series that we both enjoyed in our youth - The Saga of Darren Shan! I had been feeling really nostalgic for this series as of late and when Hame mentioned that he was also familiar with it, I thought that's it! We need to do an episode of the pod talking about it. We mostly talk about his Cirque Du Freak / Vampire's Assistant / Tunnels of Blood books, but we also do talk about his later work, The Demonata and Zom-B towards the end. It's a bit of a mess in terms of continuity, we jump all over the place as random bits and pieces spark memories about other bits of the books, but I think you'll enjoy it all the same.
I know Darren includes podcasts and videos about his work occasionally in his newsletter the Shanville Monthly so if you're reading this Darren, thanks for the incredible books, I enjoyed them immensely as a kid and I'm sure they must have a part in shaping my personality as I grew up. Keep up the great work!
Cover art featuring my actual books.
The books, in case you're interested in checking them out are: The Saga of Darren Shan (also known as the Cirque Du Freak series
Vampire Blood Trilogy: Cirque Du Freak, The Vampire's Assistant, Tunnels of Blood.
Vampire Rites Trilogy: Vampire Mountain, Trials of Death, The Vampire Prince.

The Demonata: Lord Loss, Demon Thief, Slawter, Bec, Blood Beast, Demon Apocalypse, Death's Shadow, Wolf Island, Dark Calling, Hell's Heroes.
And then there's the Zom-B series but I'm too lazy to grab all the individual titles, give it a read, it's cool stuff! The Thin Executioner is awesome too.

Back from the grave! It's another edition of The Phantom Files, just over a year later than Volume III. As usual I've got some fantastic tales to share, in this episode Rebecca from Volume I makes a return telling us about an entity she created called The Hunter. I play an old radio recording called Bongo In The Pilliga from an Australian radio show called Overnights about the area of Australia called The Pilliga where ghosts and cryptids are rumoured to have been sighted. I retell a story of one of the only instances where Christchurch had a ghost - The Victoria Street Ghost. Tracey Royce of The Quantum Foundation returns to tell us about an entity she saw that we have no way of describing but the story sent chills down my spine to hear it! We close off with a short story about the mythical Cape Reigna here in New Zealand, thought to be the entrance to the underworld in Māori mythology. It's a great episode, hope you like it!
This image shows how Tracey saw the entity that she did.
If you'd like to preorder a copy of Tracey's book, flick her an email to [email protected] and say hello, no payment needed until the book is published!

In this episode I'm joined by Wellington based stand-up comedian, Dan Boerman who just returned from a hell of a run at the Edinburgh Fringe and so wanted to spread some of the wisdom he acquired while over there doing everything solo and yet still having massive crowds with many sold out nights. Some of the things Dan suggested discussing were:
How I marketed my show without PR/an agentStuff that I wish I knewBenefits of Edinburgh / opportunitiesHow to not lose lots of money*How to not have a mental breakdown**these apply to Edinburgh Fringe. Can’t help outside of this lol
We also chatted about how to find a venue as well as source some accommodation which I had heard were the two hardest things about doing the EdFringe. It was my first time speaking to Dan face to face and he was a lovely fella. I hope you enjoy it!
You'll be able to watch the video of this conversation on YouTube at @RuddleMeThis if you'd like to see our faces, as well as a few other clips going forward.
