Ep 68: Geraldine Hickey quit after being told to wear makeup
•
This week on ‘Work Hates’ we have a yarn with comedian, animal enthusiast and dear mate of ours, Gez Hickey! She has recently captured Australia’s heart from her recent role on ‘I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here’ and she’s now on tour where she’s selling out gigantic theatres Australia wide. She hasn’t always been a big star though. Before comedy, she worked heaps of awful jobs including a 24/7 bowling alley in the casino where she witnessed a gun fight. Gez has some ripper dreadful gig stories, so go on, treat yourself and enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

 - Ep 95 Peter Helliar wants to be the next Tiger Woods but without the infidelity stuff01:02:07|On this week’s episode of the The Work Hates Podcast we are joined by Comedian, Writer…Do I really need to do this for Pete? You already know who he is. If you have watched TV, or listened to the radio, read a book or seen anything funny in Australia in the last 20 years then it is probably related to Pete Hellair. Peter is back (not that he ever left) with a brand new tax write of scheme/Podcast, “Make Me Good At Golf”. Brett and Bron have both been on the road doing gigs and filming super secret shows so their catch ups happen during the podcast! Hopefully we can get them both in the same room again for some more Pods before Brett runs away to join The Nitro Circus like he has always dreamed of.Peter’s Instagram https://www.instagram.com/pjhelliarSign up to our Patreonpatreon.com/WorkHatesSubscribe and watch full episodes on our YoutubeWork Hates - YouTubeDad's Comedy SpecialBrett Blake | Go Hard Or Go Home | FULL COMEDY SPECIALMum's Brand New Comedy SpecialBron Lewis — Who's Talking?

 - Ep 94 - Working with Big Wigs40:28|This week on 'Work Hates' Bron and Bretty have a long awaited catch up sans guest. They've both been busy bees - Brett with Nitro Circus and Bron with a new acting gig (WTF?), so this episode is filled with saying how they cope being a fish out of water. It will not surprise you to learn Brett yells and Bron laughs. Maybe they should just stick to stand-up. Enjoy this episode of 'Work Hates'!

 - Ep 92 Adam Rozenbachs Dodging Bombs In War Zones Not Bombing On Stage52:09|On this week’s episode of the “Work Hates” podcast we are joined by Comedian, TV Writer and STI Owner (the car kind of STI) Adam Rozenbachs! If you don't recognise Adam from his face (like Bron) you will know Adam from his jokes being on almost every TV show in Australia for the past 10 years. Rozie tells us about the gigs he did in an active War Zone and Bron did a gig in what felt like a war zone. Rozie and Brett get distracted and bore Bron with facts about early 1980 Australian Cars from their childhood and Bron tells us about the time she went bungee jumping as a depressed teenager with no friends. I guess some things never change.
