This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with director, producer and all round good bloke, Max Miller. He’s most famous as the director and one of the writers of one of Australia’s biggest comedy successes: Aunty Donna. We asked Max if he ever wanted to be one of the actors, and he said, “It was hard enough to agree to coming on this podcast”. The man is the classic behind-the-scenes kind of guy, which feels like a waste because he’s bloody hilarious. Max started his working career selling raw poultry, and thankfully the only way was up. We learned about the time he directed Bretty and Dustin Martin in a Bonds ad, and he graciously reads out the feedback on said ad from internet trolls. Max brings a whole new perspective to both the poultry and the entertainment industry, and we couldn’t be happier with that. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week we celebrate 50 EPISODES of ‘Work Hates’, and who better to celebrate with than Dave ‘Hughesy’ Hughes. This man is Australian comedy royalty, with one of the most distinct voices on the planet, but more importantly, a work ethic that is incomparable to any other. Hughesy comes from a working class family in Warrnambool, and the way the man hustles it would seem he hasn’t shaken that identity even in the slightest. The man WORKS HARD! From working in an abattoir to being a bricklayer’s runner, he isn’t afraid to get uncomfortable. In saying that, he has been fired from everything except comedy, so it’s bloody lucky his comedy career took off. We had a hoot chatting with Hughesy, so treat yourself and enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we have a yarn with comedian, actor and online sensation, Aaron Gocs AKA Gocsy. We were over the moon when Gocsy agreed to coming on the podcast because this is a man who has a resume longer than the Bible. You may know him from his famous corn video where he was eating corn whilst wearing cornrows and listening to Korn, but he has more skills than that. He’s done everything from being a security guard at teenage birthday parties, driven a taxi, acted in a Ford ad and removed rubbish people’s yards. He’s a jack of all trades, and he has the optimism of a saint. We love Gocsy, and you will too! Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with television presenter, comedian, mother and a pillar of Australian entertainment, Julia Morris. She has been in the industry for (in her words) “75 years” so she has seen more dreadful gigs than anyone in the world. Her career has been spectacular from the outside, and her tenacity has allowed her to stay in a profession that has been infamously unenthusiastic towards women. Julia has been thrown under the bus on national television by colleagues in search of a leg-up, and she has also embraced younger talent wholeheartedly. This is a self-made woman who walks into a room with her heart on her sleeve, and even though she may not remember anyone’s name, she is absolutely willing to pretend she has. We could have spoken to Lady Julia Morris of Gosford for hours, so you’re in for a treat. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’.

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we speak to military veteran turned comedian, Jarryd Goundrey. He served seven-years in the army and he has two busted knees, impaired hearing and a bucket load of stories to prove it. Jarryd has willingly been tear-gassed, he’s almost drowned in a water submerged helicopter, and he’s learnt exactly what to do if the Taliban capture him. He shed light on ‘military groupies’ who are willing to jump into the boot of a car if it ended in a root at Duntroon, which Brett respected and Bron didn’t. We haven’t had a soldier on the podcast before, and this episode quickly became one of our all time favourites. Strap yourselves in, and enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’.

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’!
