This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with comedian, Triple J host and ultimate sweetheart Bec Charlwood. We couldn’t believe our luck when we nabbed Bec for the pod because not only do we love her, but we knew she would have some properly unhinged stories for us, and we were spot on. Bec has a special out on YouTube called ‘Bipolar Baby’ that has gone gangbusters, but before she was a successful standup comedian, she was a Perth pest leaving strange notes on her boss’ desk and shagging blokes on the beach. UNHINGED! Just when we thought we couldn’t love this woman more, she tells us the story of her worst ever gig, and we don’t think anyone will ever top it. You’ll love this one, mates. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat to Nat Harris, ‘Triple R’ breakfast radio host and comedian. Nat has a long history with the cafe industry in Melbourne, and we quickly learn that the effervescent energy she exhibits in comedy was not exactly there when she was making coffees. She moved from flat whites to working at the council where she came to realise that even the worst of cafe customers couldn’t compare to the absolute psychos that call the council to complain. Nat shared her worst ever gig, which happened to be in Edinburgh Fringe which resulted in her almost crying on stage, followed by a brutal review by a hateful mongrel. Nat is a breath of fresh air, and we pity the fools that ever cross her in the future. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with Tom Siegart, AKA The Suburban Footballer about some of his more colourful jobs. We were so thrilled when Tom agreed to come on because we knew he’d have a collection of employment nightmares to share, and we were not disappointed. We were surprised however with some of the content of his stories. Never has the been a more drug heavy episode, which does not align with the Tom we all know! Hilarious! Tom tells us about an apprenticeship he did four four years that ended in zero qualifications (hello scam!), and his time as a DJ where he changed CD’s in a plastic shirt for peanuts. We laughed a lot for this recording, so we know you’ll love it too. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat to one of the best blokes in the country, Harley Breen! You all know him as a brilliant comedian, radio host, television presenter and new age hippy, but we reveal that he used to be a bloody pest of a door-to-door salesman. NO THANKS! He has always chased the dollar, even from an early age he fashioned a trailer to carry the newspapers he was delivering, which makes him sound both innovative and a million years old. We discuss cars a lot in this episode, so Bron was well out of her element, and Bretty brings up the 1800’s heaps, so it’s safe to say we were all confused in equal measure for this one. Heaps of fun was had, so enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with Jay Morrissey, co-director of the highly acclaimed film ‘Emu War’. He explains the tormenting process of creating a film from scratch, which made us appreciate his hilarious movie all that much more. Before he was a filmmaker, he had a number of ventures, including stand-up comedy and working at the casino. Considering the amount of times Bretty has been kicked out of casinos, it was a Christmas miracle Jay had never had to eject him himself, but that really speaks to how bad he was at his job. We loved this recording, so treat yourself and enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat to Perth based UK comedian David Hughes. David is an online sensation, his memes and tweets have reached millions of people. He is relatively new to stand-up comedy, but he’s been writing jokes for the telly and for other comedians for years. Before he found comedy, he had a string of ordinary jobs including jacking off horses, which is up there with one of the most insane jobs we’ve heard. David tells us about his time working in a shitty pub in the UK, to where he is now, performing in some of Perth’s best (and worst) establishments. We loved this chat with David, so please enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week we have the ultimate hype man, and hilarious comedian Ben Lomas. Everyone loves Lomas because not only is he one of the kindest blokes on the planet, but because he knows exactly what stories we wanted to hear. Before he was a stand-up comedian, he was a garbo where he destroyed his back and saw more European sausages than he wanted, and he was also a barkeep in a hostel bar where he scammed people out of their money and bashed a bloke who truly deserved it. He’s done it all. We could have talked to Lomas all day, so go on, treat yourself to this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

In this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we chat to UK comedian, and lifetime gypsy, Gordon Southern. Whilst it’s near impossible to put an address on the bloke, it is clear that his talent has taken him all around the globe. He wasn’t always an international comedian though, many moons ago, he was an aspiring actor charming the pants off people in hospitality, then he was the shittest fruit picker on the planet. What the actual hell are gooseberries? Gordon generously details some of the worst gigs he’s ever done, which made us cringe to no end. We loved this chat, so enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week we chat to perhaps the best bloke in the world. He’s a gentle giant who had to show Bron a photo of himself as a teenager to prove he wasn’t always a dreamboat. Ben is a successful comedian, but he also is a Hollywood actor who did most of his own stunts in a film where he fought another dreamboat. Before both of these things though, Ben became a primary school teacher, a career he dabbles in as a relief teacher. We spoke for longer than usual in this episode, and didn’t even get to some of the questions we usually ask because Ben is just that bloody interesting! We promise we’ll have him back for a Part 2, but for now, enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week we chat to Bretty’s crush and Bron’s new best friend, David Reynolds. He was the winner of the 2017 Bathurst1000, and whilst he knows nothing about cars, he’s very good at driving them fast. David shares some inside stories about what it’s like to be a pro driver, and it actually sounds way harder than you’d think. He’s not always been a big deal in the racing world though, before this, he taught flogs how to drive their luxury cars, and one time he was fired from telling a rude boss where to go. Bron and Brett only had one fight on this episode, which was genuinely surprising considering their different levels of interests in the subject matter. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’.

This week we chat to nurse and comedian, Catherine McClintock. We’ve wanted a nurse on the pod for ages, and whilst she couldn’t share all the nitty gritty details because she’s a professional, we certainly got some stomach turning stories out of her. We also learned about Catherine’s worst ever gig, which was also pretty nauseating. Our chat with Nurse Catherine reminded us to never stick things up our butts, and we’re very grateful for this. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’.

Dahn Rozario is responsible for the most chaotic episode of ‘Work Hates’ to date. Before he was an online sensation, he had a checkered work history. To paint the scene, Dahn turned up to the recording stoned out of his nut to tell us about being fired at least seven times. What. A. Surprise. He worked at the strippers, as an injectable needle hunter, and in a call centre delivering life destroying news. We learnt about how Dahn’s online content almost got him killed, and about the worst gig we have ever heard ever. Our heads were spinning after this session with Dahn, so let’s hope it was worth it. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Sammy Petersen is a stand-up comedian and a pillar of the Australian podcast community. He is one of the most adored people on the planet, and whilst you’ll fall in love with him on this episode, he provides story after story of people being horrifically rude to him. From the time he worked at a Chinese restaurant, to the time he worked at a tourist penguin attraction, he was spoken to like he was the scum of the earth. We laughed hard in this episode, and we know you will too. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Chloe Black is a Tasmanian comedian, room runner, and (in her own words) ‘professional queer’. She has been doing stand-up for over 20 years, and whilst her image has shifted over time, her ability to put up with extreme discomfort and monotony has not. Most call-centre workers don;t last long, but Chloe worked in them for fifteen long and painful years. She dabbled in a bookshop/sex shop where in the tea room she had to move the amyl to reach the milk, which is an experience not many of us share. Chloe provides a perspective we hadn’t heard before on this pod, and we absolutely loved it. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week we have someone who isn’t a comedian, but has a legitimately interesting job - a funeral home director. Her job is currently fascinating, including the times she’s given grieving people permission to call their dead people the c-bomb, if they were in fact c-bombs. Before becoming a funeral director, Stass was a forensic cleaner, cleaning places where people died, or masterbated too much. This incredible woman not only has an extensive collection of incredible stories, but a refreshing perspective on death, and life before it. We loved chatting with Stass! Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Joel Creasey has been in the Australian and international limelight for half of his life. He knew he was capable of fame from his teenage years, so he went for it hard and fast, and we’re so glad he did. He’s a radio host, a television presenter, a stand-up comedian and actor. As the busiest person in the whole industry, it is safe to say it doesn’t come without consequences. We got the hot scoop on why he was sporting broken ribs and a body covered in bruises, and the story doesn’t disappoint Joel has done it all - from falling off the stage, to a revolting farm incident, and he shares the stories of his battle scars very generously. We absolutely love Joel Creasey, and we loved recording this. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates!’

Ed Kavalee has been one of the most prevalent voices of the Australian entertainment industry for about 20 years. We know him as a radio presenter, a television personality, and the backbone of some of Australia’s most popular comedy shows, but he hasn’t always been this powerful. Ed joins us on the pod to share with us his humble beginnings as a sand shifter, a dry cleaner, and aspiring actor where he was offered some brutal feedback that changed his life forever. Ed brings a lot of energy to this episode (and detailed chat about infamous adult clips), and we dare you to try and introduce people as well as he can. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates!’

Meg Jager is a proud Brisbane girl first and foremost. Beyond that, she is an ex bookshop attendant, a relief-teacher, and a future star comedian. Her career in the bookstore went for longer than it should have after she worked through her first ever panic attack. She moved onto teaching, where she was bullied by a power hungry tool (category 3 in Bron’s infamous teacher theory), and then began her promising journey into stand-up. Her epic bomb story is super cringe, so if that’s your cup of tea (it is certain ours), then this is the ep for you! Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Laurence AKA ‘The Voice of Melbourne’ is well known for his riffing at Flinders Street Station. His aesthetic is that of a comtemporary Hagrid, and his energy matches that of Jack Black, so he is solely responsible for making Melbourne PT extremely entertaining. With an enormous online following under his belt, it did make us wonder, ‘Where did this bloke come from?’ Well, we discover that he used to be a removalist who taught Bretty how to destroy a toilet, and a postie who insisted on his own sound system that blasted insane bagpipes throughout the suburbs. This episode was intense. He’s a big fella with big feelings, and we were here for it. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Max Price is a man of many talents. He is a stand-up, an online sensation, a dad, an esteemed writer, and a bloody loveable bloke. He came on the pod with a story for Bretty and a story for Bron, and both were excellent. Max explains how he broke not one, but two bones just to hang out with his friends, which may very well be the most desperate story we’ve ever heard. We also learnt that his comedy career took him to the dizzying heights of the red carpet, and how his partner and baby sabotaged his chance of getting papped. Like it or lump it, this was one of our favourite interviews to date. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’.
