I'm having dinner at Thai Land on Bourke Street with Liverpool's Kyle Legacy. I feel like we can all understand him now, yeah?He's the king of crowd work, somehow even better than me!

Boners episode #33: Danielle Walker & Nick Carr
The Queensland comedy pair of Danielle Walkerand Nick Carrare back (they never went anywhere, they're still in the green room at Basement Comedy Club), and it's been a long day.I just listened back and I sound f*cked. Apparently flying in from London, then immediately taking your child to gymnastics, then swimming, then walking into the city (and losing a suitcase), then doing a podcast, then running a 2 hour comedy showcase, then doing another bonus podcast episode, can take its toll. I...

Boners episode #31: After the Liverpool game
It's me, walking in Liverpool! It's the day after the big game, and I'm walking into the city centre from Anfield (Liverpool's home ground).I actually got a hand held recorder with good quality sound to bring to England, then I packed it in the wrong backpack, so I'm recording all of this on my wonderful corded Apple headphones. It's not even that bad, I reckon. ANYWAY, sorry I've been slow with these, I'm making up for it now, I'll be more rapid. I've got...
AD-FREE: Episode 17 - Danielle Walker & Nick Carr
DANIELLE WALKERand NICK CARRjoin me in the Basement green room this week a few hours after I've stepped off the plane from the UK, and my head is even more f*cked than usual. We talk Liverpool (the city), plus my methodical plan of how to beat jetlag (and how it failed magnificently), heaps of airport talk, and of course: Danielle's family and weird stories about whatever. Plus: Blanket is overjoyed by King Daddy's return (or the opposite).Don't overuse the valiums, guys.

Dave O'Neiland Danny McGinlayhave hung around from the main episode to keep talking. It's like a warm bath. Nothing shocking, nothing crazy, just 3 masters of their trade, burbling along, distracting you from the pressures of modern life. Give in to it. Hot diggity.
