The Lizzy Hoo Show

Irish-American comedian Des Bishop has returned to Australia for the first time in 7 years and he sits down with Lizzy to chat about his adventures in Beijing, learning how to do stand-up in Chinese and comparing differences and similarities between Chinese and Irish cultures. Des then dives into his ‘shituation’: The time he was having a terrible time at bombing at Edinburgh Fringe which only got worse with the discovery of a lump on his balls which led to dropping pants with his friend to do a testicle comparison and contemplating testicle implants.

Lizzy is joined by comedian Ivan Aristeguieta for a very hungry chat about food, family and his love of Japan. Ivan talks about getting married in Japan, a honeymoon built around sumo wrestling and a Japanese convenience store snack hack: an egg sandwich with fried chicken inside. He explains why Spanish and Venezuelan households are so dramatic, and how cooking became the one thing his family could agree on. Ivan then gets into his “shituation”: an alcohol fuelled beach concert that ends with a night spent half naked in a Venezuelan police station.Guest:Ivan AristeguietaInsta @ivancomedyTickets and tour dates at ivancomedy.com.au**The Lizzy Hoo Show is where comedian and writer Lizzy Hoo chats life, love, mishaps and the everyday messiness that makes us all human.

Marnie Vinall is one of the coolest people in media, working her way into the male dominated field of sports journalism. Marnie champions the underdogs and underrepresented voices of Australian sport. They chat about the AFLW, covering women's sport through a different lens, and what it's like being the only woman on a sports desk. Then Marnie shares her disastrous first AFL assignment where she was so focused on her work that she didn't notice everyone leave, and she ended up locked inside Marvel Stadium, crying in a stairwell and contemplating an overnight sleepover in the freezing stadium basement.Guest:Marnie VinallInsta @marnie.vinall**The Lizzy Hoo Show is where comedian and writer Lizzy Hoo chats life, love, mishaps and the everyday messiness that makes us all human.

Lizzy is joined by Edinburgh Fringe Best Show winner Sam Nicoresti and local comedian Nat Harris. They compare UK and Australian audiences, talk about Nat's melodramatic alter ego Pussy Willow, and make the case for a trip to a dingo sanctuary before getting into their "shituations." Sam recalls the time she accidentally joined a cult after Googling "religion near me" for a free lunch and ending up with her third eye open. Nat tells the story of a midnight airport pickup that took a turn when her car broke down, and a call that changed the night.GuestsSam Nicoresti - @samnicorestiNat Harris - @natisdragon**The Lizzy Hoo Show is where comedian and writer Lizzy Hoo chats life, love, mishaps and the everyday messiness that makes us all human.

Lizzy is joined by The Movie Man himself, Alexei Toliopoulos for a chat about the four loves of his life: Film, Food, Friends and Family. Alexei also shares his experience as a judge on the beloved ABC show Race Around The World where he critiques short films and shares what makes a great film. Then, Alexei jumps into his ‘Shituation’ and confesses to stealing thousands of dollars worth of vouchers from his local cinema which escalated into a New Year's Eve heist and a very tragic email.GuestsAlexei ToliopoulosInsta @thisisalexeiPodcast - The Last Video Store**The Lizzy Hoo Show is where comedian and writer Lizzy Hoo chats life, love, mishaps and the everyday messiness that makes us all human.
