I got back from the Adelaide Fringe yesterday after staying out all night on the last day, and getting picked up by The Boyssssss at 5am for the drive back. It feels good to be home, even in this, the sweaty armpit of Melbourne. Ever been cockblocked (or whatever the female version of that is?) by some fuckhead out trying to cut your lunch? I talk about that on here too, and my new strategy to deal with it. Brought to you by the now-derelict Producers Bar on Grenfell St in Adelaide, Australia.

This weekend I jumped the fence to WOMADelaide a few times with varying degrees of success, culminating in what was honestly one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in my life on Monday night. I'm super tired today, but I have a judge for the festival awards in my show tonight, so it's time to PERK UP!! Also drum circles are rubbish. LONG LIVE DOUG STANHOPE AND THE KILLER TERMITES!!

My god, today has been a fucking hideous day. I started this pod fuming about the amount of petty crap I've struggled through in the last 24 hours, then slowly calmed down while ranting about children's glue being made from horses and the reasons why I shouldn't be allowed behind the wheel of a car.

In the last week I've gotten drunk at some fantastic dive bars in Sydney in between doing some great shows there. I woke up on my mate Benger's doorstep one morning, and saw some people miss their flight at Sydney Airport. Beautiful. Also got to cuss out a racist homeless man. It was a great week!

This week I'd just landed in Sydney on red eye flight, slept for a couple hours in the airport and then walked across town with my bags to get to my mate Liz's house in Rozelle. I accidentally woke her housemate up at one point while I was yelling about podcast hosts who can't stay on topic. Sorrrryyyy!

This pod was hard work and I really didn't say a whole lot of anything other than a 5-minute rant about dogs, until almost 20 minutes in when I finally caved and realised I should have been talking about the one thing that I had on my mind, but had been trying to avoid talking about for the previous 20 minutes. Once I got that out, I mused on a great conversation I had with a friend about honesty and openness, before admitting once and for all that I am a fuckboy. I'm reading this great book called This Is Not The Story You Think It Is, by Laura Munson, and I wrapped up with a little reading from it. Recorded at Lazy Susan's Comedy Den in Perth.

This week on a special episode of Sitting Under A Tree, I sit down with my best mate Phil Portellos a couple days before my birthday and we drink a bunch of craft beers. We share dating stories, talk about trying to scam free shit off of multi-national companies, and taste a bunch of lovely beers. Music: City and Color - ....Off By Heart Ugly God - Fuck Ugly God

This week I recap the Australia Day long weekend including revelations from the protest, pat myself on the back for being two-and-a-half days sober, and look forward to my imminent firing (due to incompetence) from the cafe I've been working at for three weeks. Recorded from my room in North Melbourne.

This week I consider options for corporate blackmail to fund the pod, discuss the incredible whiteness of Dutch people, and the #blessed segment returns as I give thanks for meeting a douchebag American tourist who made me feel good about bullying. Recorded in my room in Melbourne (24/1)

I reminisce about the 90s British sci-fi sitcom Red Dwarf, consider whether it'd be possible to get instagram cam girls to watch my stand up, and at one point slip into what I can honestly say is a fantastic Northern English accent. Musical Interlude: Backbeat Soundsystem - I Spy Recorded walking around Melbourne on Monday night (15/01) and Tuesday arvo (16/01)
