Over the last couple of yearsMark Humphries, Evan Williams and I have been writing a sitcom set in the world of conservative talkback radio. It’s not so much a workplace comedy but a story about ambition, and politics at the extremes.
With the support of Audible we made it into an 8-part sitcom for your ears (we only did the sound, the images are created by your own mind – it’s cheaper that way), beating all the odds for making long-form narrative comedy in Australia.

We had a wonderful script editor in David K. Barnes (Wooden Overcoats) and an epic restructure and rewrite from Kacie Anning (The Other Guy). We made it with the incredible audio studio Uncanny Valley under the diligent supervision of Matt Perrot who built out the complex soundscape.
So this podcast, Mark Humphries, Evan Williams and I had a chat about how and why we made Riot Act – with a call to Anjali Rao and Matt Perrot for some behind the scenes context.
It was a real thrill for us to make it, and a privilege to work with our heroes and friends to create something we’re very proud of.
