On this week’s episode of the “Work Hates” podcast we are joined by one of Bron’s oldest comedy mate, Comedian, writer and Rock Eisteddfod enthusiast, Laureence Discoll. You have probably  seen Laurence popping up on Bron’s socials doing funny little clips and reaction videos. Laurenece is a raw comedy finalist and a 2024 Melbourne International Comedy Festival Best Newcomer nominee. All these awards and accolades haven;t stopped Laurence from working some really shit call centre jobs and of course our favourite thing, total bombing at a corporate gig.

On this week’s episode of the “Work Hates” podcast we are joined by Comedian, Writer and Dog Owner, Alex Ward! While Alex is still trying to get over the fact she quit The Project just weeks for she was eligible for a redundancy payout, she came on the pod to tell us all about it! Alex shares a terrible corporate gig (its always the corporate gigs), how she was drafted into child slavery by her mother while Bron snoops through Brett’s DVD collection. Alex is the best and we loved having her round. Another Classic Work Hates Episode!

On this week’s episode of the “Work Hates” podcast we are joined by Comedian, lesbain, (***Checks Notes**) I mean Thespian and Below Par Golfer, Peter James! Don’t let Pete’s baby face and child-like charm fool you, Pete is a stone cold killer on the stage. Pete is the “King of Cairns Comedy" and it was an absolute joy for him to venture down south to harass Brett 24/7 by crashing on his couch for a week. Pete’s dad has also started stand up comedy and has advice for all of us. Did you know comedy works in threes?

On this week’s episode of ‘Work Hate’ we are joined by Comedian, Actor, Skateboarder and recent facial scar enthusiast, David Quirk!! Quirky has done everything in the comedy game and has been doing it for over 20 years. He is one of the best and such a fun chat.  David tells us about having sex with a man in a spa on camera (apparently). Bron bombs on stage in Pakenham (apparently). And Brett has a wildly inappropriate conversion with a multiple award winning actor and international Super Star (not apparently). We will have to get David back on because we have only just scratched the surface of all the insane things he has done at work.

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we chat to standup comedian, Play Writer and Western Australian Marron Fan, Rose Bishop! After working in what sounds like every terrible hospitality venue in Perth Rose has made the move over to Melbourne to pressure her true passion, sending fines to dodgy builders. Oh and stand up comedy! 

Rose and Brett teach Bron about the most important thing to look out for when inspecting a house. While we all learn what the hell a Marron is (it's a big yabbie/crayfish only found in WA).

Rose has written a play which comes out at the end of the year. Follow her socials and keep an eye out for when tickets go on sale. We had a great chat with Rose so enjoy this week’s episode of “Work Hates”!

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’, we chat to our dear friend and fellow comedian, Nick Capper. We mean this when we say this is going to be the first of many episodes we will have this lunatic on because his employment history is the most mental you’ll ever hear of. Capper takes us on a walk down memory lane where he found himself working in Thailand as a reggae boat guide, which was about as bonkers as it sounds. He also shared how he worked at a paintball place where he was shot violently by losers which was about as humiliating as it sounds. We loved this chat with this great man. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we chat to scooter King, X Game Gold Medallist and the face of action sports Ryan Williams, AKA R-Willy. This is a little different to our usual comedian guests because he isn’t a comedian, but similar to the comedians we have on, his work history was pretty limited. R-Willy made a name for himself before he had to get a real job, and he’s been so successful that he will almost definitely never need a real job. Bretty was so starstruck for this episode that he barely spoke, and Bron unashamedly didn’t know who he was or that grown men rode scooters so she asked questions that embarrassed Bretty to no end. We loved this chat, and we know you will too! Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’.

On this episode of ‘Work Hates’ we talk to comedian, podcaster and cartoonist Tommy Dassalo. We both assumed Tommy had a very brief history with employment, but it turns out the bloke has not only worked, but he’s worked at some really god awful places. From a well known burger place where he had to wear a bandanna, to working with a fellow who hated him, poor old Tommy has been through the ringer. Come for the shitty work stories, and stay for the dreadful gig tale he has, where he had to do a three hour putt-putt corporate where he ate shit for the entire gig. Horrible for him, paradise for us. We love this man, and we thoroughly enjoyed this recording, so go on, treat yourself and get stuck into this episode of ‘Work Hates’.
