Ep 63: Dave Thornton shamefully performed in sequins at the races
Ep. 63
â˘
This week on âWork Hatesâ we sit down with one of the nicest, funniest and tallest people in this great nation, Dave Thornton. There arenât many telly shows, stages or radio stations he hasnât been on, and youâd be looking a long time to find someone who doesnât like him. But before he was a famous comedian, he was the worldâs worst graphic designer due to the fact he is colour blind. Dave came with a collection of embarrassing gigs to talk about, including the time he was accused of being racist mid-gig. Awkward. We loved this chat, and we know you will too! Enjoy this episode of âWork Hatesâ!

EP 82: Daniel Connell went from fixing bikes to toilet paper nappies on stage in Europe
59:08|On this episode of âWork Hatesâ we chat to writer, comedian & recent State of Origin Loser, Daniel Connel! Dan has been one of the hardest working comedians in the industry for years. He is always touring and always crushing every time he steps on stage. Is there anything he canât do? Turns out he hates working in kitchens, isnât great at fixing bikes and loves a âpuntâ just a little too much. Do yourself a favour and sip on lime milkshake while you listen to this week's podcast. Enjoy this episode of âWork Hatesâ!Ep 81: RIP the Project with head writer Hunter smith
01:06:08|This week we hare joined by comedian, writer and former fish and chip employee Hunter smith! Hunter is and incredible comic who was the former head comedy writer at the project! we get all the goss on there worst guests, awful people he has worked with and heaps more!

01:02:56|On this episode of âWork Hatesâ, we chat to our dear friend and fellow comedian, Nick Capper. We mean this when we say this is going to be the first of many episodes we will have this lunatic on because his employment history is the most mental youâll ever hear of. Capper takes us on a walk down memory lane where he found himself working in Thailand as a reggae boat guide, which was about as bonkers as it sounds. He also shared how he worked at a paintball place where he was shot violently by losers which was about as humiliating as it sounds. We loved this chat with this great man.

32:41|On this episode of âWork Hatesâ we chat to scooter King, X Game Gold Medallist and the face of action sports Ryan Williams, AKA R-Willy. This is a little different to our usual comedian guests because he isnât a comedian, but similar to the comedians we have on, his work history was pretty limited. R-Willy made a name for himself before he had to get a real job, and heâs been so successful that he will almost definitely never need a real job. Bretty was so starstruck for this episode that he barely spoke, and Bron unashamedly didnât know who he was or that grown men rode scooters so she asked questions that embarrassed Bretty to no end. We loved this chat, and we know you will too! Enjoy this episode of âWork Hatesâ.Make sure you check out nitro circus new show " Off The Rails" its gonna be awesome!

01:04:42|On this episode of âWork Hatesâ we talk to comedian, podcaster and cartoonist Tommy Dassalo. We both assumed Tommy had a very brief history with employment, but it turns out the bloke has not only worked, but heâs worked at some really god awful places. From a well known burger place where he had to wear a bandanna, to working with a fellow who hated him, poor old Tommy has been through the ringer. Come for the shitty work stories, and stay for the dreadful gig tale he has, where he had to do a three hour putt-putt corporate where he ate shit for the entire gig. Horrible for him, paradise for us. We love this man, and we thoroughly enjoyed this recording, so go on, treat yourself and get stuck into this episode of âWork Hatesâ.Ep 77: LIVE in Melbourne with Emma Holland and Guy Williams
52:07|Again, unlike Adelaide, we could release this one! Success! This Melbourne audience was treated IRL to Guy having a mental breakdown on stage due to Brettâs wildly inaccurate assumptions of him, and Emma made everyone scream with laughter. Enjoy this episode of âWork Hatesâ.Ep 76 Urvi Majumdar had to flirt with men to sell lingerie
46:31|On this episode of âWork Hatesâ we chat to standup comedian, actor and teacher, Urvi Majumdar! Urvi may have started her career as a teacher, but thanks to giving up on appeasing her migrant parents, she followed her dream of becoming an artist! She has her own television show on ABC called âUrvi Goes to an All Girls Schoolâ which is incredibly funny and a terrific insight into her background. Her first job saw her working in a lingerie shop which was just as awkward as youâd imagine, and her worst bombing story had us cringing like mad. We love Urvi, so enjoy this episode of âWork Hatesâ!Ep 75 Jenny Tian used to get slammed for a living
53:10|On this episode of âWork Hatesâ we chat to online sensation and hilarious standup comedian, Jenny Tian. She explains how frozen yoghurt is made, and the best way to get fired from a frozen yoghurt place. We were shocked to learn about the scam her uni was running, and why you should give call centre people a conversation rather than slamming the phone down on them (Bron will never not do this). We loved this chat, so enjoy this episode of âWork Hatesâ.Ep 74 LIVE in Melbourne with Broden Kelly and Sez
58:51|Unlike Adelaide, we can release this one! We had a bloody excellent time with Aunty Donnaâs Broden Kelly and the internetâs favourite public toilet reviewer, Sez. The audience was a sea of good timers who gobbled up Brodenâs tales of employment misadventure and Sezâs insane stories of nudity. Enjoy this episode of âWork Hatesâ!
