A Year 7 writes in because a girl at school won’t stop laughing at them… and they genuinely don’t know if it’s bullying, flirting, or just their face.
So obviously we handle it with maturity and restraint.
This episode spirals from a very real school dilemma into talent quest stand-up revolutions, failed Peter Pan auditions, intense Berlin theatre training, Otago flat inspections, choir nationals, ram raids (contextually), and the emotional damage of never getting cast in the school play.
As always, we solve listener problems using pure, unfiltered improv. No prep. No plan. Just chaos and occasional accidental wisdom.
If you’ve ever been laughed at in class, failed a drama audition, lost your bond in Dunedin, or thought about confronting someone with “why are you laughing?” — this one’s for you.
