Work hates Podcast

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with director, producer and all round good bloke, Max Miller. He’s most famous as the director and one of the writers of one of Australia’s biggest comedy successes: Aunty Donna. We asked Max if he ever wanted to be one of the actors, and he said, “It was hard enough to agree to coming on this podcast”. The man is the classic behind-the-scenes kind of guy, which feels like a waste because he’s bloody hilarious. Max started his working career selling raw poultry, and thankfully the only way was up. We learned about the time he directed Bretty and Dustin Martin in a Bonds ad, and he graciously reads out the feedback on said ad from internet trolls. Max brings a whole new perspective to both the poultry and the entertainment industry, and we couldn’t be happier with that. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast.

This week we celebrate 50 EPISODES of ‘Work Hates’, and who better to celebrate with than Dave ‘Hughesy’ Hughes. This man is Australian comedy royalty, with one of the most distinct voices on the planet, but more importantly, a work ethic that is incomparable to any other. Hughesy comes from a working class family in Warrnambool, and the way the man hustles it would seem he hasn’t shaken that identity even in the slightest. The man WORKS HARD! From working in an abattoir to being a bricklayer’s runner, he isn’t afraid to get uncomfortable. In saying that, he has been fired from everything except comedy, so it’s bloody lucky his comedy career took off. We had a hoot chatting with Hughesy, so treat yourself and enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we have a yarn with comedian, actor and online sensation, Aaron Gocs AKA Gocsy. We were over the moon when Gocsy agreed to coming on the podcast because this is a man who has a resume longer than the Bible. You may know him from his famous corn video where he was eating corn whilst wearing cornrows and listening to Korn, but he has more skills than that. He’s done everything from being a security guard at teenage birthday parties, driven a taxi, acted in a Ford ad and removed rubbish people’s yards. He’s a jack of all trades, and he has the optimism of a saint. We love Gocsy, and you will too! Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on ‘Work Hates’ we chat with television presenter, comedian, mother and a pillar of Australian entertainment, Julia Morris. She has been in the industry for (in her words) “75 years” so she has seen more dreadful gigs than anyone in the world. Her career has been spectacular from the outside, and her tenacity has allowed her to stay in a profession that has been infamously unenthusiastic towards women. Julia has been thrown under the bus on national television by colleagues in search of a leg-up, and she has also embraced younger talent wholeheartedly. This is a self-made woman who walks into a room with her heart on her sleeve, and even though she may not remember anyone’s name, she is absolutely willing to pretend she has. We could have spoken to Lady Julia Morris of Gosford for hours, so you’re in for a treat. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
