Ex-triple j hosts Alex Dyson & Kyran Wheatley start comedy podcast

triple j alumni Alex Dyson and Kyran Wheatley have united for a new comedy podcast called Mirth.

Dyson hosted Breakfast on the national broadcaster from 2010 to 2016, while Kyran also spent several years at the js, most recently on Weekends.

The descriptor for Mirth reads: “Alex Dyson and Kyran Wheatley try to create a comedy podcast devoid of faff and untainted by triviality, and miss by a long shot. Like, not even close. But they do have interviews with cool people.”

In addition to the podcast, the two have teased the possibility of opening a bar together.

Here’s the announcement:

Hi Friends. @KyranWheatley and I thought that starting a podcast and opening a bar in central Melbourne was too easy on their own, so we're doing both together. Enjoy. https://t.co/R8Ev39bD87
