  • 10. Jentacular with Toby Schmitz and Luke Arnold

    48:22||Season 6, Ep. 10
    Both Toby Schmitz and Luke Arnold are actors who have recently turned their storytelling talents into actual stories in actual books!Toby's debut novel "The Empress Murders" is described as both a razor-sharp, mind-bendingly clever whodunnit and an excoriating look at the excesses of the British Empire, just as the sun is beginning to set on it.And Luke is releasing "Whisper in the Wind" his fourth book in his Fetch Phillips series of Fantasy-Noir detective novels set in a fantasy world where the magic has disappeared. 
  • 9. If You Like Humphrey Bogart with Nicola and Rosie Dempsey

    43:54||Season 6, Ep. 9
    Rosie and Nicola Dempsey are otherwise known as the comedy music double act Flo and Joan. The two previous times they’ve been on this show, Nicola’s pieces of trivia were both about Andrew Lloyd Webber - and there was even a question related to Lloyd Webber in last year’s episode - at the time, the depth of their knowledge about the man was somewhat surprising. But now we understand why, since they were writing their show One Man Musical which is about Andrew Lloyd Webber. They've just been performing the show for the last month, garnering a nomination for Most Outstanding Show at The Melbourne International Comedy Festival awards, which will be announced after this episode is uploaded.
  • 8. Real Life with Julia Zemiro and Brian Nankervis

    44:24||Season 6, Ep. 8
    It’s become something of an Easter tradition to have Julia Zemiro and Brian Nankervis on the show the week before Good Friday to promote the very special Rockwiz event The Really Really Good Friday Spectacular at the magnificent Hamer Hall.Quiz aficionados themselves, they get surprisingly stuck on a few of the questions this time around. But it's always a joy when Brian and Julia are on the show.Get your tickets to Rockwiz's Really Really Good Friday Spectacular here:https://www.artscentremelbourne.com.au/whats-on/2025/contemporary-music/rockwiz
  • 7. Sandwichfest with Pierre Novellie and George Fouracres

    53:56||Season 6, Ep. 7
    George Fouracres and Pierre Novellie met while studying Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic at Cambridge, so it's a fair expectation that they might do well at quizzes.They're both annoyingly multi-talented clever people, performing work ranging from stand-up to musicals, Pierre has a very successful podcast of his own - BudPod with Phil Wang, he's the author of the book Why Can't I Just Enjoy Things? A Comedian's Guide to Autism. And George meanwhile has played Hamlet for the Globe Theatre! But right now, they’re both doing shows at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.George is the one man in “One Man Musical” created by musical comedians Flo and Joan, AKA the sisters Rosie and Nicola Dempsey.And Pierre's performing his stand up solo “Must We”Get tickets to both shows here:https://www.comedyfestival.com.au/browse-shows/pierre-novellie/https://www.comedyfestival.com.au/browse-shows/one-man-musical/
  • 6. Herding Cats Again with David Correos and Harry Jun

    53:29||Season 6, Ep. 6
    David Correos has been on this podcast before with Demi Lardner, but this time I needed a slightly less chaotic partner for him. Harry Jun is another very funny comedian, but they come up against a very tricky set of questions (as always, written by the unparalleled Cindy MacDonald) and it takes all my powers of clue-giving to get them to the correct answers.They both have shows at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival which you should see.Get your tickets here:https://www.comedyfestival.com.au/browse-shows/harry-jun-friendship-safari/ https://www.comedyfestival.com.au/browse-shows/noise-zealand/#show-calendar
  • 5. Margaritas with Ethan Cavanagh and Sweeney Preston

    44:34||Season 6, Ep. 5
    This episode was recorded live at the Margarita Bar inside Gluttony at the Adelaide Fringe!Not in front of a live studio audience or anything, but perhaps it should've been?For their third time on the quiz, comedians Sweeney Preston and Ethan Cavanagh got a free margarita and the chance to talk about all their upcoming shows at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.They each have a solo show, plus they'll be doing their comedy wine tasting show and hosting the Late Nite PowerPoint Comedy Showcase, as well as their (not-so-secret) secret Comedy on the Rooftop.And for some extra behind the scenes videos of this episode, make sure you are following @thesaturdayquiz on Instagram
  • 4. The Embarrassment of Youth with Alex Lowes and Kushi Venkatesh

    45:00||Season 6, Ep. 4
    It's quite apt that this episode has come hot on the heels of the last episode. If Chris Ryan and Luke Heggie are veterans of standup showing all the signs of world-weariness in their comedy, the guests on this episode are the polar opposites.Alex Lowes and Kushi Venkatesh are fresh faced babes at the very start of their careers in comedy. Although they've both already achieved a great deal. With Kushi virtually selling out her debut hour at the Adelaide Fringe, and Alex creating a brand new jazz/comedy hybrid show for MICF.
  • 3. Trillions of Ants with Luke Heggie and Chris Ryan

    37:09||Season 6, Ep. 3

They are both touring brand new hours of standup right now and are experts at extracting laughs from their audiences.Check their websites to see when they're in a city near you and go see them.
