Ding Dong Club with Karl Chandler

Ding Dong!

It's a late night LOOSE ep, with two of our finest: Joel Creasey and Nick Cody!

We're hanging out after a big show (and a few drinks) at Basement Comedy Club, as we talk: my idiotic adventures booking air travel; we find out about a SECRET celebrity travel agent; Cody's got international baby news; my half-arsed journey to speak Thai; the gossip files open yet again to talk about MY alleged influence on a new TV show; my sleeping habits are roasted; AND we finish the episode before SOMEONE passes out!

We just about keep this episode on the tracks!

Plus: Blanket's back doing what she does best: reacting to people's names.

Ding Dong!

It's the return of two of the biggest comics in Australia: Andrew Wolfe (Netflix... subscription) and Nick Carr ("Have You Been Paying Attention?"... viewer)!

We're on Zoom (not that you'd know it) for a little ripper of an ep!

Carr's made his acting debut on a big TV show (or has he?); Blanket's bullying me in the park; I open the Comedy Gossip Files again for another ridiculous story about a dickhead comic; Pamela Anderson (inevitably); and Carr's had a Chandler-like experience at a wedding...

Plus: Blanket stars in the pilot of a new show!

Ding Dong!

It's a ball-tearing episode, with children's book author BEN KNIGHT, and Ding Dong (and sex) virgin PETER JAMES!

Pete's dad is living my dream... He's retired in Thailand(!!), and had an "incident"; I'm having comedy admin trouble in Queensland; I've been BULLIED by a parent at school pickup; plus I get bullied by these two idiot guests about something THAT IS NOT TRUE. You freaks will probably love it.

Plus: Blanket's at it again.

It's a wild ride! Happy 100th Ding Dong Club! Enjoy your telegram from the King!

Ding Dong!

It's 2025's Ding Dong Club defending champion LIZZY HOO, and corporate comedian HARLEY BREEN!

The gossip never stops with some Linktree updates PLUS an industry freshie; the epic story of a Ding Dong Club listener spying on Harley doing a corporate comedy gig; a Lizzy Hoo fan gives me grief at Basement Comedy Club; plus Lizzy visits a shaman in Mongolia! Relatable!

Plus: Blanket's still working on her school holidays. Wouldn't like to be 5 names right now!!

It's superstar internet teacher/mum BRON LEWIS, and first-time guest (go easy on him, he's new) BRETT BLAKE!

More BIG-TIME comedy gossip, as we tattle about a comedian we know who's been hacked by an ex; I get an unusual podcast guest request; we get into Bron's Mothers Day complaints vs my Fathers Day complaints; I've copped a birthday present that Blakey's jealous of; and we recount the drunken steps of the last time I had a big night out with Blakey.

Plus: Blanket fits in another 5 listener names before she goes on holidays.

Ding Dong!

It's our favorite ethnic comedian from the sub-continent, MIKE GOLDSTEIN, and the Ennio Morricone of comedy podcasts, OLIVER CLARK!

I teach Blanket about 9/11; Goldstein tells the epic tale of someone being arrested on his international flight to the US; plus the REAL hot topic... middle seats on planes; Oliver tells us the story behind the Ding Dong Club theme "Gimme That"; I explain the real reason why the Sydney live podcast audience wasn't loud; and we get into my never-ending fascination of cover bands... as we pitch some new songs to one of them! Big episode!!

Plus: Blanket lies about what time it is.

Ding Dong!

This week it's the Queen of Queensland comedy, MEL BUTTLE, and the Koh Samui three-way king ROHAN GANJU!

And yes, of course there's more talk of me dealing with people on the door of comedy shows, BUT, I've been absolutely OBLITERATED by a heckle on the way to the podcast; Mel picks apart growing up as an only child and tries to calm my nerves for Blanket's future; and then explains in great detail the fascinating process of dealing with a sperm bank (it's nothing like Abhishek says it is).

This one is SUPER interesting, and SUPER funny! Plus Rohan burns me so hard, I'm still peeling.

Plus: Blanket's at it again!

Two classic Ding Dong Club buddies this week, it's DAVE THORNTON and DANNY McGINLAY!

I'm dealing with being badly reviewed on Google Maps; we explore the phenomenon of people that live in shops; we all figure out our shittest places we've stayed when we've lived overseas; and Thorno and Danny have met someone (in)famous at the footy!

Plus there's a BIG announcement in there somewhere!

AND Blanket's back on her bullshit with Patreon names.

Ding Dong!

This week, we’ve got one of Queensland’s finest HARLEY BREEN, and one of the top 1000 most powerful people from South Australia: LEHMO!

My parents have finally moved away from Maryborough. I now have no connection with my home town… How do I feel? What is my legacy? Where do I rank amontst the all-time Maryborough greats? How do my guests feel about their hometowns?

And are my parents psychotic for getting rid of something very controversial during their move? Let me know!

Plus there’s Shane Warne talk; how awkward it is to suggest jokes to other comedians; what’s better: 1 kid or 4 kids?; and I run into someone making a comedy comeback… Is this the weirdest comedy interaction I’ve ever had?

It’s another hot one!

Plus: Blanket’s up to her absolutely classic old tricks with the Patreon names.
