A pretty chaotic episode this week with David Correos and AJ from Cult Popture.

I'll be honest, Cass gets bitten by my flatmate's dog right before we started recording and that is mostly what we talk about on the episode. It's just dog bite. If you are afraid of dogs or their bites, I assume you have already skipped this episode. but if you haven't! You should. Although Cass was, and is, completely fine.

This week's episode of The Agonies is one of the best so far - with guest Kate Dolan. it was recorded while we were on tour of North Queensland and we assess the amenities of a motel in Innisfail, ask what stop motion animated clay creature we would be on Creature Comforts, get locked out of my room, talk about doing amateur theatre in small towns, obtain re-entry to my room, pitch a gong show with shock collars, describe the common hazards in Defence Housing and learn that Chumba-Wumba is not from Toowoomba.

This is the second official General Meeting of Cass Paige & Grace Jarvis, best mates who live in different countries, and have therefore to collate and notate all everything we want to say to each other while hamstrung by timezones. This week we chat a lot about the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, boyfriends pulling focus in a crisis, zombie nudity in 28 Years Later, the Curse of Cassandra & going to the hospital for a kidney infection.

I think there was a slight lag on our zoom connection, so we sound a little clunky. My apologies. Also, leave a review...

This week on The Agonies we have comedy legend Wil Anderson to chat about the devil of the clip economy, driving home on a broken leg, hating AI, science fiction in real life, Nazis: Classic, getting arrested on a flight to Wagga Wagga and doing stand-up comedy when you can’t stand up.

*For overseas listeners when Wil says “liberal” he’s referring to the Liberal National Party, which is the major conservative political party in Australia.

The Agonies this week is brought to you in the form of a lovely episode recorded during the Melbourne International Comedy Festival with comedians Gillian Cosgriff & Lena Moon. We chat about the autism jobs of the past that we've lost, buying one leg of a racehorse, the boogey-man that is vocal nodes, olfactory hallucinations, job security in the arts and getting kicked by a squirrel.

This episode of The Agonies was recorded quite late in the 2025 Melbourne International Comedy Festival and it involves a delirious Grace and Bronwyn (former flatmates) giggling hysterically, reminiscing about living together and describing how cute a dog is being. They also get into how crazy electricity is, the square head of David Boreanaz, having a coworker throw himself off a chair to get worker's comp, scent mapping the house for a blind dog, Munchausen's by proxy being "hack" & the cute way that Ken Done writes the word "Australia." Also, a scallop is the cyst of the sea.

On this episode of The Agonies (recorded during the last week of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2025) Grace Jarvis talks to comedians Guy Williams & Broden Kelly (Aunty Donna) about the mental terrorism of comedy festivals, realising all your heroes are monsters, getting handed envelopes of cash by Netflix and Antipodean cultural cringe.

Also, a kind of annoying amount of inside comedy baseball. Sorry! I get swept up in conversation.
