1
00:00:09,244 --> 00:00:13,724
Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda jam Nationill Anderson has written a new

2
00:00:13,764 --> 00:00:17,204
Speaker 1: stand up show every year since his Melbourne comedy debut

3
00:00:17,284 --> 00:00:20,284
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety seven. There's a lot of jokes, it's

4
00:00:20,284 --> 00:00:23,044
Speaker 1: a lot of writing this time. Well, he's touring one

5
00:00:23,124 --> 00:00:28,884
Speaker 1: hundred percent improvised show, no writing, lazy lazy, one hundred.

6
00:00:28,644 --> 00:00:31,324
Speaker 2: Percent Will Brow That's right, Hello, Will? How are you?

7
00:00:31,604 --> 00:00:34,524
Speaker 3: Is? You don't? What I enjoy about this, Amanda? Is

8
00:00:34,564 --> 00:00:36,644
Speaker 3: that a lot of people when they think about what

9
00:00:36,684 --> 00:00:39,403
Speaker 3: I'm doing this year, they've said, that's an amazing creative

10
00:00:39,403 --> 00:00:42,764
Speaker 3: feat that you've done in eighty completely unique shows, different

11
00:00:42,844 --> 00:00:46,844
Speaker 3: every night, like incredible creativity. But you have, as usual,

12
00:00:46,924 --> 00:00:49,083
Speaker 3: seen to the absolute heart of it, which is for

13
00:00:49,164 --> 00:00:51,364
Speaker 3: twenty nine years, I ruined my summer by having to

14
00:00:51,364 --> 00:00:53,524
Speaker 3: write a stand up show and for once I said,

15
00:00:53,564 --> 00:00:55,964
Speaker 3: you know what, I'd rather just improvise on the spot

16
00:00:56,044 --> 00:00:57,164
Speaker 3: rather than prepare anything.

17
00:00:57,444 --> 00:00:58,484
Speaker 2: And that's the way it goes.

18
00:00:58,564 --> 00:01:02,364
Speaker 1: Sounds like an everyone's terrifying nightmare. To make it up

19
00:01:02,844 --> 00:01:04,284
Speaker 1: every night you're just going to sort of point at

20
00:01:04,324 --> 00:01:06,124
Speaker 1: some of the audiences say look at your hair. I'll

21
00:01:06,164 --> 00:01:06,924
Speaker 1: do an hour on that.

22
00:01:07,964 --> 00:01:11,644
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's basically it is a version of that. Although

23
00:01:11,844 --> 00:01:14,244
Speaker 3: I don't like to make fun of anybody in the show,

24
00:01:14,284 --> 00:01:16,564
Speaker 3: it's to make fun with people. In fact, often I'm

25
00:01:16,564 --> 00:01:18,444
Speaker 3: the person who's the butt of the joke. That's the

26
00:01:18,484 --> 00:01:21,124
Speaker 3: difference thing between doing a show like this and doing

27
00:01:21,124 --> 00:01:23,284
Speaker 3: your regular show. I was in Orange a couple of

28
00:01:23,284 --> 00:01:25,404
Speaker 3: weeks ago, and if you're going to Orange to do

29
00:01:25,444 --> 00:01:28,404
Speaker 3: this show, traditionally you'd research Orange and you come up

30
00:01:28,404 --> 00:01:30,404
Speaker 3: with a whole bunch of jokes about the local area.

31
00:01:30,604 --> 00:01:32,724
Speaker 3: What I found about this show is instead, you go

32
00:01:32,804 --> 00:01:36,363
Speaker 3: in with curiosity. So instead of preparing and telling them

33
00:01:36,404 --> 00:01:38,604
Speaker 3: something they hear all the time about their town. Because

34
00:01:38,604 --> 00:01:40,563
Speaker 3: you've done a little bit of research, you go in

35
00:01:40,604 --> 00:01:42,964
Speaker 3: and you start asking questions. And the great thing is

36
00:01:43,284 --> 00:01:46,004
Speaker 3: it can almost sometimes feel like the entire town is

37
00:01:46,044 --> 00:01:48,284
Speaker 3: playing a prank on you. So I was having a

38
00:01:48,284 --> 00:01:50,324
Speaker 3: conversation in an Orange with a woman in the front row,

39
00:01:50,324 --> 00:01:53,084
Speaker 3: and I was like, now, you're not famous for oranges though, right, Like,

40
00:01:53,124 --> 00:01:55,124
Speaker 3: you don't grow oranges here, and you go, oh, don't

41
00:01:55,164 --> 00:01:56,884
Speaker 3: you know what we grow here? And I was like, no,

42
00:01:56,964 --> 00:01:58,284
Speaker 3: I don't know what you grow here. And then the

43
00:01:58,364 --> 00:02:01,404
Speaker 3: whole audience just started to titter, because of course they

44
00:02:01,444 --> 00:02:03,404
Speaker 3: all know the answer to where you're going, and I

45
00:02:03,444 --> 00:02:06,324
Speaker 3: didn't know. Did you know the main industry in Orange

46
00:02:06,644 --> 00:02:09,444
Speaker 3: is apples? Is that not the best bit of information

47
00:02:09,564 --> 00:02:13,803
Speaker 3: that you had heard? That The town slogan of Orange

48
00:02:13,884 --> 00:02:16,524
Speaker 3: used to be she'll be apples in Orange. They go

49
00:02:17,084 --> 00:02:19,483
Speaker 3: apples in Orange, And that is one of those things

50
00:02:19,483 --> 00:02:21,204
Speaker 3: that would have been phone for me to discover and

51
00:02:21,244 --> 00:02:22,844
Speaker 3: bring to there. But of course they all know that

52
00:02:22,884 --> 00:02:25,124
Speaker 3: and would have like gone, yes, we know, we do

53
00:02:25,244 --> 00:02:27,964
Speaker 3: it all the time. But this show changes that entire

54
00:02:28,004 --> 00:02:30,724
Speaker 3: balance between performer and audience in that you can ask

55
00:02:30,764 --> 00:02:33,044
Speaker 3: them questions and then let the audience shape the shop.

56
00:02:33,163 --> 00:02:35,204
Speaker 2: This is great, And you're coming to us right now

57
00:02:35,244 --> 00:02:37,684
Speaker 2: from Melbourne. A man is going down to Melbourne on

58
00:02:37,724 --> 00:02:39,484
Speaker 2: the weekend. You're doing a bit of work down there.

59
00:02:39,684 --> 00:02:42,444
Speaker 2: Hush hush. But when I read the newspapers daily, it

60
00:02:42,483 --> 00:02:45,203
Speaker 2: sounds like the Melbourne has slipped into the crime capital

61
00:02:45,284 --> 00:02:48,004
Speaker 2: of the world. Like it's sounding like Madrid. Actually, now

62
00:02:48,004 --> 00:02:51,644
Speaker 2: Madrid's good. What's a really bad place? One as Aris? Okay, okay,

63
00:02:51,964 --> 00:02:54,043
Speaker 2: it sounds like one as Arias. Is that true? Will?

64
00:02:55,204 --> 00:02:57,883
Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean it is true. You know, I've just

65
00:02:57,964 --> 00:03:00,804
Speaker 3: seen comedians out on there on the street, robbing other comedians,

66
00:03:00,803 --> 00:03:03,964
Speaker 3: stealing their jokes. Views is going from town to like

67
00:03:04,043 --> 00:03:07,004
Speaker 3: you're holding down a Tommy Little. I saw it in

68
00:03:07,043 --> 00:03:09,084
Speaker 3: the other day breaking in their head of gains his

69
00:03:09,163 --> 00:03:13,323
Speaker 3: house show called Manette, which I don't think is something

70
00:03:13,324 --> 00:03:15,244
Speaker 3: that they will be doing next year. So yeah, I

71
00:03:15,284 --> 00:03:17,604
Speaker 3: do think there is a lot of comedy crimes on

72
00:03:17,603 --> 00:03:18,923
Speaker 3: the streets of Melbourne at the moment.

73
00:03:19,244 --> 00:03:22,284
Speaker 2: How would Hughesy go? You get robbed by Hughsey, It'll

74
00:03:22,324 --> 00:03:24,444
Speaker 2: be late, I came, mate, what do you got?

75
00:03:26,964 --> 00:03:28,523
Speaker 1: Do you think he's holding a chainsaw to you?

76
00:03:31,084 --> 00:03:33,364
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I've got this backut of snakes alive, but

77
00:03:33,404 --> 00:03:34,964
Speaker 3: if you don't behave yourself, they'll be dead.

78
00:03:38,204 --> 00:03:40,764
Speaker 2: Well mate, we always like catching up with you and

79
00:03:40,803 --> 00:03:43,284

80
00:03:43,484 --> 00:03:45,884
Speaker 2: You can do anything, any anything you want to know.

81
00:03:45,844 --> 00:03:46,564
Speaker 3: You show audience.

82
00:03:47,644 --> 00:03:50,124
Speaker 1: I know your shows always have quirky titles. This one

83
00:03:50,404 --> 00:03:53,123
Speaker 1: what you're talking about? Will I love it works out?

84
00:03:53,124 --> 00:03:53,324

Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you, and yes, a great respect to the

86
00:03:57,044 --> 00:04:00,564
Speaker 3: TV show Different strokes that I absolutely loved what I

87
00:04:00,684 --> 00:04:03,484
Speaker 3: was going up, so it takes different strokes.

88
00:04:03,524 --> 00:04:05,683
Speaker 2: But also no one remembers it, so it just sounds

89
00:04:05,684 --> 00:04:08,444
Speaker 2: like you've come up with it. Bro. You've stolen already,

90
00:04:08,484 --> 00:04:10,404
Speaker 2: You've robbed your audience before you've started.

91
00:04:11,604 --> 00:04:13,884
Speaker 3: I mean, you are real. You set up here. If

92
00:04:13,924 --> 00:04:15,843
Speaker 3: I stole from you, I'd be stealing something that was

93
00:04:15,844 --> 00:04:18,764
Speaker 3: already stolen. So you can't say anything.

94
00:04:19,004 --> 00:04:22,764
