Description

Australia's longest-running comedy podcast (established 2024), host Karl Chandler hangs out with funny, famous, and not-so-famous mates every week and (high concept alert) tries to be as funny as he can with them, for about an hour. Real splitting-the-atom stuff. It's like Joe Rogan if he was a comedian.

From the ashes of "The Little Dum Dum Club" comes a podcast JUST different enough to avoid an intellectual property lawsuit.

If you find low-brow humour a little hi-falutin', this show may be for you.
