Melbourne comedian Damian Callinan talks about the two eulogies he wrote, in very different circumstances, for his parents' funerals.
How did he balance his natural inclination towards comedy, with the need to pay proper tribute?
What’s the right balance between laughter and tears?
Should you read a eulogy or try to memorise?
What are some tips for connecting with both your loved one's story, and the congregation?
Speech of the week is Damian's loquat jam speech at The Wheeler Centre at Tony Wilson's 'Show and Tell for Grown Ups.
Damian's hilarious podcast about life in isolation in the already isolated Bodgy Creek is The Bodgy Creek Community Podcast . He has plays, merch, and comedy downloads on his website.
