“We’ve gathered a diverse range of comedians and they’re exploring every topic you could want to hear about – how to find or avoid love, Game of Thrones, motherhood, modern masculinity, how to know when you’re an international sex icon and why John Oxley was the mastermind behind Brisbane’s miserable qualities.”
