The Other Day w/ Hoani Hotene

Stoked to have one of the most interesting people in the Wellington scene join me for this weeks podcast! I'd known that Rachel had done a ton of travelling and wild experiences but it wasn't until researching and chatting with them that I got a vibe of how wild some of her life has been. A guest I would love to have back to touch more of their life another time. If you wan

We welcome back the first guest to ever be on this show! Itay and I had just finished a 3 night run at the NZ Fringe, which included a couple of wild nights. Each show with him is very different so I'd recommend seeing him anytime you can.

If you wanna see Sowmya she has an upcoming show with Samantha Hannah called Sisters. Get your

We are doing an episode almost entirely about consiparacy theories and alien interactions. Last time Zach and Leki were in the studio the most exciting part of the chat was when we started chatting aliens. So this week I decided we'd commit a whole episode to some of the strangest stories out there and it did not dissapoint. Part of what makes this such a fun chat is the fact

Two of the funniest people in Wellington join the show this week to talk about some of the weirdest jobs they've had inside and outside the business of show. A strange role in an unmade movie, love advice in a morph suit, and the very extra role of a Wellington fat-berg. We cover a bunch of wild stuff in todays show and there is even a couple fun facts in there at the end for t

Recent winner of Celebrity Treasure Island James Mustapic joins myself and good friend of the show Booth the Clown to talk psychics, NZ celebs and a bunch of Celebrity Treasure Island.

We are back! And for the first episode of 2024 I have Te Waiarangi Ratana and Jackson Herman! Two guys that toe the line between the film world and the world of stand-up comedy.
