Gracias, Adelaide

Thanks to everyone who made it along to my show at the Adelaide Fringe Festival. I had a bloody brilliant time and lots of people said nice things and the Rhino Room is brilliant and oh gosh it made me feel young and joyous again and it filled my heart with gladness.

Here are some nice reviews of the show; details about tickets for Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney here.

 

 

Meanjin Q&A on Comedy & The Politics of Offense

 

So I remember writing up this Q&A via email with Meg Watson last year, but I think I must have missed its publication.

After a certain radio-based scandal that I was involved with in August, this is a reflection on all those whacky issues surrounding the “lines” of comedy, the legitimacy of offending people, etc. I had time to clearly state my thoughts here, so I thought you might be interested in giving it a once over.

All this is very relevant to my new stand up show My Ego Is Better Than Your Ego, which just so happens to be on sale now. Blow me down!

Same Love (Doggy Style)

Last week the following story hit the world media:

“A dog in Tennessee is scheduled to die today, after his owner abandoned him after deciding that the canine was gay. The dog’s original master noticed him ‘hunched over’ another male dog, which made him think that the dog was homosexual. The pitbull is currently at a shelter in Jackson awaiting his fate, but he is set to be put down at 1 p.m. unless a new owner can be found.”

Thankfully the dog was adopted by local hero Stephanie Fryns and named “Elton”.

In tribute to Elton — and to the GLBTIQ canines inside all of us — and inspired by Hottest 100 toppers Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Tom and Alex present this anthem. #equalrights #nevergiveup #gaydogs
