Can’t help but agree with Ali. I’ve always felt Aus celebrates mediocrity. We have tall-poppy syndrome, convict/jailer heritage, an underdog identity/ethos, if a celeb goes 5 mins without self-deprecating then we hate them; etc. These are mostly good things IMO … but yeah the downside is we celebrate songs with 3 chords; mullets and gross mo’s; bland beer; mismatching outfits; disheveled clothes that don’t fit; etc. I think a large portion of us WANT to look drab because the Australian mentality allows it to be a “style”.
(Don’t get me wrong, a lot of people around me where I now live tend to dress worse … but dat’s called “poverty” 😬 lol)

Jordie: there are no good American comedians. Also jordie: quotes an American comedy show for 90% of his vocabulary

Al Murray the pub landlord is a hilarious British comedian.
Ali taking tall poppy cutting to the extreme is the sort of shit I listen for.

What about David Mitchell and Robert Webb, Peep Show is probably one of the best comedy shows

I'm surprised Monty python wasn't mentioned. John Cleese obviously in fawlty towers. And of course yes minister, a show that is a template for our current government obviously.

Never laughed so much at an uplate pod and there has been some classics. Some egregious things were said and I think it's time to cancel... Mislav for all his hate toward Hamish and Andy.
