This episode is possibly the most chaotic the podcast has ever been. Demi and David are masters of surfing the absurd and are both very comfortable teetering at the edge of the abyss of improvisation. They are also both very funny people.

Annie Louey and Mohammed Magdi are comedians dating across continents. Annie is Chinese-Australian living in Melbourne. Mohammed is Egyptian but has lived in China for 11 years. Annie is still getting used to learning about her own Chinese culture through an Arab.

They first met on Love Island, aka Hong Kong. Annie returned to Australia with a long-distance relationship, a massive medical bill and 25 minutes of new material. 

Meanwhile Mo stayed back in his Bachelor pad, crying into his bubble tea and scheming about how they could see each other again. And so, their comedy festival show was born.

Fern Brady and John Kearns were both contestants on series 14 of the UK tv show Taskmaster - in fact they even scored the exact same amount of points to finish joint last. The good news for them on this podcast is that since there are no other competitors on the quiz, no matter how badly they do, they will finish joint winners

Zoë Coombs Marr and Tom Walker are two of the funniest and most creative comedians at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. If this episode of the quiz is anything to go by, there are very few boundaries either of them are too cautious to cross.

This one comes with a bit of a content warning, so if you’ve got little ones listening, you might wanna skip ahead once Tom talks about his show and when he shares his favourite piece of trivia.

For an episode of a quiz podcast to promote two comedian's shows at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, there is an awful lot of chat about soccer in this one.

According to the webpages for their shows Chloe Petts and Rob Auton are both English comedians "fresh from Edinburgh" - but as Rob says, what it really should say is that they're "match fit".
