This week's episode of The Agonies is one of the best so far - with guest Kate Dolan. it was recorded while we were on tour of North Queensland and we assess the amenities of a motel in Innisfail, ask what stop motion animated clay creature we would be on Creature Comforts, get locked out of my room, talk about doing amateur theatre in small towns, obtain re-entry to my room, pitch a gong show with shock collars, describe the common hazards in Defence Housing and learn that Chumba-Wumba is not from Toowoomba.

This is the second official General Meeting of Cass Paige & Grace Jarvis, best mates who live in different countries, and have therefore to collate and notate all everything we want to say to each other while hamstrung by timezones. This week we chat a lot about the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, boyfriends pulling focus in a crisis, zombie nudity in 28 Years Later, the Curse of Cassandra & going to the hospital for a kidney infection.

I think there was a slight lag on our zoom connection, so we sound a little clunky. My apologies. Also, leave a review if you're already hanging around down here!

This week on The Agonies we have comedy legend Wil Anderson to chat about the devil of the clip economy, driving home on a broken leg, hating AI, science fiction in real life, Nazis: Classic, getting arrested on a flight to Wagga Wagga and doing stand-up comedy when you can’t stand up.

*For overseas listeners when Wil says “liberal” he’s referring to the Liberal National Party, which is the major conservative political party in Australia

This week on The Agonies (recorded on the final day of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2025) Grace Jarvis & Michael Hing chat about the ongoing maladies, realising you're gonna be a parent while high on MDMA, begging a dentist to shave your teeth & having your jaw pain cured by getting poked in the butt by a man in an alley.

Hing also gives Grace advice on how to do radio.

The Agonies this week is brought to you in the form of a lovely episode recorded during the Melbourne International Comedy Festival with comedians Gillian Cosgriff & Lena Moon. We chat about the autism jobs of the past that we've lost, buying one leg of a racehorse, the boogey-man that is vocal nodes, olfactory hallucinations, job security in the arts and getting kicked by a squirrel.

On this episode of The Agonies, recorded near the end of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2025, three incredibly tired comedians: Grace Jarvis, Oliver Coleman & Rhys Mathewson discuss being sponsored my mayonnaise, racists on Facebook Marketplace, papier mache prawn costumes and permanently damaging your legs in the name of comedy.

This episode of The Agonies was recorded quite late in the 2025 Melbourne International Comedy Festival and it involves a delirious Grace and Bronwyn (former flatmates) giggling hysterically, reminiscing about living together and describing how cute a dog is being. They also get into how crazy electricity is, the square head of David Boreanaz, having a coworker throw himself off a chair to get worker's comp, scent mapping the house for a blind dog, Munchausen's by proxy being "hack" & the cute way that Ken Done writes the word "Australia." Also, a scallop is the cyst of the sea.
