One of Australia's funniest bald man is on the show this week, Broden Kelly – the least hirsute member of incredible comedy group Aunty Donna. Broden describes the time in his life when it was time to bite the bullet and what impact it had on him and his comedy career. He also names his Baldness Rount Mushmore and we get into the difference between Michael Jordan and Lebron James. Thanks to Shaver Shop!

Together, you've heard them 14 times on YKS, and on their streams and podcasts, perhaps millions more. But today is not about that. Today is about…pumpy. Actually I forget what that was. So let's say that today is about Kickstarters. Even though it rarely is, of course. And as you can see by the prodigious runtime of this episode, it had very little chance to be the exception proving the rule. But what if it were? Well you'd probably hear about a celebrity's crazy vanity project, a guy's crazy book, and some crazy fake science. And there would be 4-5 of us going crazy thinking and talking about those things. Plus! Some very normal things as well. Just kidding.Watch Demi's new show, SYWWAPP

Broden Kelly was one of Australia’s original content creators, alongside his comedy troupe, Aunty Donna, they pioneered success in the online medium. Sure, the group may have accidentally stumbled across Youtube in search of bigger dreams, their success is no accident. Broden has embraced rejection, resilience and creativity, to become one of our most successful comedy talents. The real secret to his success? Collaboration, and not just the two recognisable faces you see beside him on his comedy skits, but everyone behind the scenes, who through trust and hard work, have mastered a creative workflow. Just like Broden, success and contentment can be found in collaboration and moving outside of the ordinary.

On this episode of Do It Again But Better, Jess chats to actor, theatre maker, educator, improv pro and hair chameleon, John Marc Desengano.

John Marc's work with young people has now seen him become the co-CEO/co-Artistic Director of Western Edge, a company he adores and has worked with for several years. He also facilitates workshops and teaches at Federation University, VCA, and multiple schools across Melbourne. John Marc's stage credits include; Looking for Alibrandi, The Yellow Wave, The Bachelor S17 E05, Survival, Enlightenment (Green Room Award winning Ensemble 2021), A Midnight Visit, and many more.

Broden Kelly (Aunty Donna) joins The Friend Request to talk comedy group dynamics, fashion mishaps, mole maps, solo projects, and why he might be trying to sabotage Aunty Donna from the inside (allegedly)... I mean, he's just doing solo stuff as well. We also dive into The OG Crew, what makes someone “hot but not funny,” and whether this is, in fact, a sexy podcast (again—his words).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Zachary Ruane is best known as one-third of the global comedy phenomenon, Aunty Donna. In his own right, he's a comedian, a writer, an actor, and a world class artiste of the noblest of all pursuits, podcasting. In this episode, Zac talks with hilarious candour (and mild panic) about reaching one's mid-30s and wondering what friendship is supposed to look like. Let's just say the question "are you a good friend?" really takes off. He also pontificates about forming Aunty Donna before they were friends, about the fine line between friendship and podcasting, about the purity of friendship between man and dog, and so much more.Plus, while Rhys is tragically absent, Georgia & Kyran catch up in the intro, covering political campaigning, female wrestling, democracy sausages, a songwriting sabbatical, the weather, and a potential new segment "what has [insert name of host] missed?"CONTACTText - 0431 345 145Email - fwendspod@gmail.comMail - PO Box 24144, Melbourne, Vic, 3001RATE AND REVIEWOf course you've already subscribed or followed the show, now we'd love you to leave a rating and a review.

I'm calling it right now. Lesbian Space Princess is the film of the year. I saw it in a sold out auditorium at the beautiful art deco Piccadilly cinema in Adelaide with an Adelaide Film Festival audience that lapped up every laugh, every tear, and every splash of neon bright queer celebration on screen. Lesbian Space Princess is the animated feature debut of filmmakers Leela Varghese and Emma Hough Hobbs, a collaborative force to be reckoned with, set to change the Australian film industry one bubblegum flavoured cel at a time. The film follows Saira (voiced brilliantly by the superb Shabana Azeez), the titular lesbian space princess who finds herself having to leave her sheltered planet in the wide galaxy to save her punk rock ex-girlfriend Kiki (Bernie Van Tiel) after she is kidnapped by the Straight White Maliens (voiced by the Aunty Donna crew). Saira pilots a ship (voiced with joyous deadpan delivery by Richard Roxburgh, completing his one-two punch of career best performances alongside his turn in The Correspondent), encountering the delightful Willow (a scene stealing Gemma Chua-Tran), and the two head off in the galaxy to save Kiki.That plot synopsis barely scratches the surface of what is going on within one of the sharpest, funniest, queerest films to be produced in Australia. There is the Australian film industry before Lesbian Space Princess, and there is the Australian film industry after Lesbian Space Princess, and I can't wait to see what work this film inspires people to create. I'm still giddy from the ten minute standing ovation that took place on the opening night. You know us Aussies, we're not partial to standing ovations, let alone standing for anything (unless it's a queue), so to know we stood, clapped, cheered, and heaped deserving praise on this debut film is a strong enough statement as it is. That energy I'm putting forward lingers in the following interview with Leela, Emma, and Shabana (who joined us after a day of shooting her HBO series The Pitt, and after her film Birdeater took home Best Indie Film at the AACTAs). In this discussion, we talk about the origins of Lesbian Space Princess, what it means to create a narrative that everyone can relate to, the varied emotionality of the film, and a lot more. We close the chat with Emma telling us the impact of the film on relationships. This interview was recorded ahead of Lesbian Space Princess' world premiere at the Berlinale Film Festival where it is in competition for the Panorama Audience Award and the Teddy Award for LGBTQIA+ films. The version screened at the Adelaide Film Festival was a work in progress print. Lesbian Space Princess was awarded the full $10,000 from the Queer Screen Completion Fund. The Completion Fund recipients are determined by an independent jury. The following chat is one of the first pieces (of many) that the Curb will be putting up this year as we celebrate the year of Lesbian Space Princess.

Puzzlers and previous guests Nicholas J Johnson and Lawrence Leung return to play and discuss Leonard Boyd and David Brashaw's 2015 board game Clacks, based on Terry Pratchett's 33rd Discworld novel, Going Postal. Postmaster General Moist von Lipwig has come up with a plan to prove the Ankh-Morpork postal service is still relevant - a race against the Grand Trunk Semaphore Company! The Grand Trunk has a monopoly on the “Clacks”, a system of optical telegraph towers which transmit messages using patterns formed by a grid of six lights - surely they can beat a man on a horse? But the Grand Trunk knows Moist has something up his sleeve, and they're taking no chances - the fastest and best new Clacks operators will have to prove they're worthy of the job by racing each other first... The fifth (and so far final) Discworld board game, Clacks is the second Discworld design by Boyd and Brashaw's BackSpindle games (following Guards! Guards!). Clacks turns the race at the climax of Going Postal into a logic puzzle where up to four players must use punch cards to turn patterns of lights on and off in a grid, hoping to form another pattern which equates to a letter in Clacks code. It's a race to finish your word (or words) first, either against each other, or as a team against Moist von Lipwig - but sharing the same grid of lights makes this puzzle very unpredictable. Is it Discworldy enough? Does it feel like the Clacks technology of the books? Do you find it fun or funny, and do you prefer it collaborative or cooperative? And what else would you play to get your logic puzzle fix? Join the discussion using the hashtag #Pratchat82. Guest Nicholas J Johnson is an author, magician, educator and expert in deception, who goes by the nickname "Australia's Honest Con-Man". You can find details of Nick's shows and workshops, including his upcoming magic show for children at the 2025 Melbourne Comedy Festival, at conman.com.au, or follow him on Bluesky, Instagram or Facebook as @honestconman.
