Listen to the Aussie comedy podcast making waves overseas
When former Triple M host Declan Fay came up with the idea for a podcast comedy mockumentary about a Christian hip hop group, he certainly didn’t expect it to blow up overseas.
But that’s exactly what’s happened with his scripted comedy podcast Crossbread – A Comedy Musical, which is making waves in the US and the UK.
The six-parter, written by Fay, Megan Washington and Chris Ryan and stars Kate McLennan, John Waters, Aaron Chen, Sami Shad, Ryan, and Washington, who composed the music.
Recently the show was featured on iTunes USAs ‘Shows We Love Page’, as well as the front page of iTunes Australia.
The podcast, which has been lauded by Tony Martin, Wil Anderson, Julia Zemiro and Charlie Pickering, has also been featured in a number of publications including The Australian which called it “astonishingly good”.
It was also named Podcast Of The Week in the SMH’s The Green Guide, and reviewed positive on Christian News sites.
It’s even reached the UK, with comedy site Chortle naming it the best on-demand comedy of the week.
Listened when it first came out. The songs are absolutely amazing. Can’t believe ABC let them make this.
Great stuff. Well done everyone.
