Another Special hostful episode this week. Bron and Brett are back in the same room in the same country and there is a lot for them to catch up on. Brett has more stories about his summer Euro Trip through possibly landlocked European Countries and getting nude in a Suna. Bron has a WILD story about going back to her home town to do a show. The Crime Scene Investigation team will need to get invol...

A little bit of a different one on this week’s episode of The Work Hates Podcast. Brett is still off on his Euro Trip post the Edinburgh  Fringe Festival. While Bron is back in Melbourne about to have child services called on her for strange and unusual sleeping conditions for her son. Brett and Bron catch up and debrief and what they have both been up to in the last 4 weeks. And yes, they ha...

On this week’s episode of the “Work Hates” podcast we are joined by one of Bron’s oldest comedy mate, Comedian, writer and Rock Eisteddfod enthusiast, Laureence Discoll. You have probably  seen Laurence popping up on Bron’s socials doing funny little clips and reaction videos.

On this week’s episode of the “Work Hates” podcast we are joined by Comedian, Writer and Dog Owner, Alex Ward! While Alex is still trying to get over the fact she quit The Project just weeks for she was eligible for a redundancy payout, she came on the pod to tell us all about it! Alex shares a terrible corporate gig (its always the corporate gigs), how she was drafted into child slavery by her mo...

On this week’s episode of the “Work Hates” podcast we are joined by Comedian, lesbain, (*** Checks Notes **) I mean Thespian and Below Par Golfer, Peter James! Don’t let Pete’s baby face and child-like charm fool you, Pete is a stone cold killer on the stage. Pete is the “King of Cairns Comedy" and it was an absolute joy for him to venture down south to harass Brett 24/7 by crashing on his couch f...

On this week’s episode of ‘Work Hate’ we are joined by Comedian, Actor, Skateboarder and recent facial scar enthusiast, David Quirk!! Quirky has done everything in the comedy game and has been doing it for over 20 years. He is one of the best and such a fun chat.  David tells us about having sex with a man in a spa on camera (apparently). Bron bombs on stage in Pakenham (apparently). And Bret...

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we chat to standup comedian, Play Writer and Western Australian Marron Fan, Rose Bishop! After working in what sounds like every terrible hospitality venue in Perth Rose has made the move over to Melbourne to pressure her true passion, sending fines to dodgy builders. Oh and stand up comedy!  Rose and Brett teach Bron about the most important thing to look out...

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we chat to writer, comedian & recent State of Origin Loser, Daniel Connel! Dan has been one of the hardest working comedians in the industry for years. He is always touring and always crushing every time he steps on stage. Is there anything he can’t do? Turns out he hates working in kitchens, isn’t great at  fixing bikes and loves a “punt” just a little too...

This week we hare joined by comedian, writer and former fish and chip employee Hunter smith! Hunter is and incredible comic who was the former head comedy writer at the project! we get all the goss on there worst guests, awful people he has worked with and heaps more! And of course usual Brett and Bron arguments! Strap In! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’, we chat to our dear friend and fellow comedian, Nick Capper. We mean this when we say this is going to be the first of many episodes we will have this lunatic on because his employment history is the most mental you’ll ever hear of. Capper takes us on a walk down memory lane where he found himself working in Thailand as a reggae boat guide, which was about as bonke...

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we chat to scooter King, X Game Gold Medallist and the face of action sports Ryan Williams, AKA R-Willy. This is a little different to our usual comedian guests because he isn’t a comedian, but similar to the comedians we have on, his work history was pretty limited. R-Willy made a name for himself before he had to get a real job, and he’s been so successful that he...

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we talk to comedian, podcaster and cartoonist Tommy Dassalo. We both assumed Tommy had a very brief history with employment, but it turns out the bloke has not only worked, but he’s worked at some really god awful places. From a well known burger place where he had to wear a bandanna, to working with a fellow who hated him, poor old Tommy has been through the ringer...

Again, unlike Adelaide, we could release this one! Success! This Melbourne audience was treated IRL to Guy having a mental breakdown on stage due to Brett’s wildly inaccurate assumptions of him, and Emma made everyone scream with laughter. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we chat to standup comedian, actor and teacher, Urvi Majumdar! Urvi may have started her career as a teacher, but thanks to giving up on appeasing her migrant parents, she followed her dream of becoming an artist! She has her own television show on ABC called ‘Urvi Goes to an All Girls School’ which is incredibly funny and a terrific insight into her background. Her...

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we chat to online sensation and hilarious standup comedian, Jenny Tian. She explains how frozen yoghurt is made, and the best way to get fired from a frozen yoghurt place. We were shocked to learn about the scam her uni was running, and why you should give call centre people a conversation rather than slamming the phone down on them (Bron will never not do this). We...

Unlike Adelaide, we can release this one! We had a bloody excellent time with Aunty Donna’s Broden Kelly and the internet’s favourite public toilet reviewer, Sez. The audience was a sea of good timers who gobbled up Broden’s tales of employment misadventure and Sez’s insane stories of nudity. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat to the red adidas tracksuited comedian Daniel Muggleton. He has one of the sharpest tongues in the industry and he scares the shit out of hecklers. Before he was a successful comedian, he was a rich boy who did a law degree for fun. We loved hearing about his hospitality failures as well as the cringe gigs he’s experienced, especially the one at Tamworth Country M...

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with nurse and comedy up and comer, Rachael Hornbuckle! You might not know her name yet, but you will soon, this is one funny bish. Rach is a qualified nurse, and she spent her medical career doing a range of interesting jobs including erectile dysfunction (be mature guys). She tells us about a heinous boss and also about some of some awful gigs she’s had to exper...

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat to UK comedian and global legend Chloe Petts. She’s a regular visitor of Australia because we love what she does, plus she’s an excellent hang. Before she was an internationally successful comedian, she worked with homeless and underprivileged people which makes her a much better person than both Brett and Bron. Chloe may sound posh but she has cleaned shit off wa...

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat the the biggest superstar in the southern hemisphere, Urzila Carlson. She’s fresh off the back of starring in a blockbuster film with Amy Schumer and her international standup tour is selling thousands of tickets on the daily. Urzila is a big deal, but she’s humble, kind and generous with her time, which made us love her even more. Her job history is pretty breezy...

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat to internet sensation and UK comedian Red Richardson. We assumed he wouldn’t have a long history of jobs because he speaks like royalty, but it turns out that’s all just a front. Red has been a cleaner where he quit after a particularly gross encounter and he’s also been a delivery man who ruined a girl’s 16th birthday. His nightmare gig is cringe as hell as well,...

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we have a yarn with comedian, animal enthusiast and dear mate of ours, Gez Hickey! She has recently captured Australia’s heart from her recent role on ‘I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here’ and she’s now on tour where she’s selling out gigantic theatres Australia wide. She hasn’t always been a big star though. Before comedy, she worked heaps of awful jobs including a 24/7 b...

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat to identical twins and comedy duo Ben and James Stevenson aka The Stevenson Experience. They’ve been performing together since they were 15 and whilst it hasn’t always been an easy ride, they genuinely like each other. Individually they had some awful work stories including the time they were teenagers and a woman made Ben look at her naked photos. Together, they...

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we talk to comedian, ex-radio host and national icon, Sammy J! He is a household name who is arguably the most loveable man on the planet, so he took us through some chapters of his life that shocked us. For example, the time he worked in a store where is was made to feel invisible, or the time he was a teenager and an established performer told him to “f**k off”. Sammy i...

This week we chat to standup comedian and ex-lawyer Andrew Portelli. He is one of the best joke writers in the business, but before he was a gig pig, he was a prosecutor where he sent bad guys to jail. Andrew explains that he started his work as a modern day hero as a young age when he catfished creeps online ‘for fun’. The man is twisted as shit, but we love him dearly. We had a great time chatti...
