Everyone Relax

(This episode was first released on Patreon in Nov, 2023). Wil and Charlie record a rare episode in the same room. The pair attempt to answer; which Nirvana album is better? What would Kurt Cobain be doing if he was here now? And why did Matthew Perry attack Keanu Reeves? Also, Charlie finds a clump of pubic hair in a public bathroom — how did it get there? Wil’s been reading a whodunit and thinks that might make him more qualified to investigate.

"Short-term shyster, long-term loser" — Larry Dean. Larry's learned that playing the short game rarely pays off, unless you're a dodgey comedy promoter. Plenty of laughs in this one as Larry shares his complex relationship with his audience (including the illogical reason he prefers an audience who doesn't know him). Also, why giving truthful feedback is hard, what percentage of his jokes does he find funny?, and... ghosts? Yes, Larry shares a couple of ghost stories and Wil almost buys it.

Wil explains his formula for purchasing clothes and why the drawstring of a pair of shorts is so crucial. Charlie asks if there's finally a change coming to the Washington DC universe. The pair critique The Rock's recent performance as a guest on Joe Rogan and brainstorm ways he could revive his flailing reputation. The answer? Nothing.

Well. This is the episode where we try to get Russell Crowe onto the podcast. What does he think of the name TOFOP? Did he really make a new band with the same initials to save money on merch? Will he sue us? Will he even call in? TOFOP merch, Patreon and more: https://linktr.ee/TOFOP See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ed Kavalee does his best to deflect his way through two hours and in the end, Wil learns a lot about himself and we learn Ed's 'teamwork' approach to comedy cuts to the bone. Hear about Ed's dream of making another film, his full-circle role in the recent incredible season of Thank God You're Here, and why the mistakes we make often lead to our best qualities.  Wilosophy merch, Patreon and more: https://linktr.ee/TOFOP  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"Life is shit. Accept it and get on with the job" — Andrew Hanson. Although Andrew Hansen wasn't interested in having kids, now that he has them he says they've "kicked his head open".

"Remember, you know nothing". Anne Edmonds reflects on finding comedy in her 30s, becoming a mum in her 40s, and how reveling in failure has shaped her worldview. Anne joins Wil fresh off the back of her first theatre ['Bloom' by Tom Gleisner] — she talks about the differences between that medium and stand-up and why she felt embarrassed rehearsing to nobody.  Follow Anne Edmonds: https://www.instagram.com/anne_edmonds_/  Join the studio audience for Question Everything: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/o/question-everything-team-53373949503 Wilosophy Patreon, merch, and more: https://linktr.ee/TOFOP See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
