Charlie Pickering is a comedian and host of the satirical comedy show The Weekly on the ABC. I used to have one of those, but let’s not go into it and start comparing who was “more successful” or “not cancelled”.
Here we chat about the ethics of including political figures in whacky comedy sketches, Charlie’s centrist approach to politics, voting for John Howard, his interest in American political history and why he’s more excited about Elizabeth Warren’s candidacy than Bernie Sanders’.
I’ll be off for the Christmas break but shall return in 2020. Thanks for everything! I love you! Onward, comrades!
I’m bringing my show ENOUGH to the 2020 Adelaide Fringe in March, tickets on sale now
