Ep 44: Tom Siegart received a complaint that he stank
Season 44, Ep. 44
•
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’!

43. Ep 43 Harley Breen was the door-to-door salesman no one wanted to see
58:32||Ep. 43This 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’!
42. Ep 42 Jay Morrissey is the worst employee the casino has ever seen
01:02:32||Ep. 42This 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’!41. Ep 41 David Hughes (UK) scams a Pub
57:08||Ep. 41This 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’!40. Ep 40 Ben Lomas bashed a creep and saved the day
52:03||Ep. 40This 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’!39. Ep 39 Gordon Southern (UK) couldn’t pick a gooseberry to save his life
01:01:20||Ep. 39In 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’!38. Ep 38 Teacher Ben Knight fought Ryan Gosling in a bin
01:07:48||Ep. 38This 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’!37. Ep 37: Supercar Driver David Reynolds accidentally exploded a car
01:02:15||Ep. 37This 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’.36. Ep 36 Nurse Catherine McClintock saw a lightbulb in a patient’s butt
44:21||Ep. 36This 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’.
