This time we welcome Drew Forsythe onto the podcast, a satirist known for his work in The Wharf Revue and frequent collaborations with Jon English and Simon Gallaher for Essgee Entertainment productions including Pirates of Penzance, The Mikado, HMS Pinafore, and A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum throughout the 90's and early 2000's. Drew's comedic stage work is something Dan grew up watching from quite a young and impressionable age leading to passions and what he loves doing today. So, this was indeed a full circle moment.

We talk about Bob Katter, Essgee, memories from working with Jon English and his reaction upon hearing about his death, Australian political satire, working on The Wharf Revue, meeting politicians, playing Pauline Hanson, an encounter with John Clarke, why image in creative fields is so important, writing, not letting work overtake your identity, potential retirement, and a whole lot more! This one is heavy on the Australian political satire talk. This was also Drew's first podcast!
