2 more sleeps until you get The Brutal Truth
Australia’s Leading Comedy Talent Tell All About Stand-up vs. Radio
by Brad March, Sarah Levett, and Scott Muller
Frank insights from the most stellar line-up of on-air talent ever assembled in one place without mediation or the need to negotiate the release of hostages:
Tony Martin | Wendy Harmer | Marty Sheargold | Tom Gleeson | Mick Molloy |
“The happiest moment in every comedian’s bloody week – listening to some Program Director who came from the Sales Department tell you why you weren’t funny”
Tom Ballard | Jo Stanley | Rosso | Mikey Robins | Matt Tilley |
“Strap yourself in for a lot of compromise and pseudo analysis. Everyone knows why ratings go up … but only after it happens”
Lehmo | Akmal Saleh | Tim Smith | Paul Hogan | Craig Annis |
“Conviction, compassion and sincerity. As the old saying goes, if you can fake that, you got it made!”
Dave O'Neil | Tim Blackwell | Simon Kennedy | Stav Davidson |
"If only I had a seven second delay surgically implanted in my brain. I think I would have been far more successful”
Dave Thornton | Julian Schiller | Lisa Fernandez | Joel Creasey |
“Lets look at the similarities: both have microphones, both are conversations, both end in tears some days…”
Tommy Little | James O'Loghlin | Steve Philp | Adam Richard |
