The final recorded live podcast of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival of 2016.

The guests were Wil Anderson, Anne Edmonds and an American comedian, who heckled Karl’s show the previous night, who Karl hadn’t seen for 2 years prior to that point.
I’m sure his name will be in the podcast when it comes out and I’ll fix this post then, but I do not recall what his name was.

Wil Anderson arrived on stage wearing one of the Dum Dum Club’s “I’m Aware of the Little Dum Dum Club” hoodies.

This podcast they decided not to do the thing, which every other show they’ve done, and that’s to get the guests to move along one seat, which always seems to confuse everyone. Probably because Tommy and Karl don’t explain this.
The way it should happen is that each new guest ends up sitting next to Tommy and everyone moves to the stage left (audience right) by one seat, this time they were all seated in the way they came on to stage.

One thing that was discussed, brought up tangentially by Wil was that how at some point in the future when someone searches for the Westgate Bridge, the Little Dum Dum Club comes up instead of the website for the Westgate Bridge. In the same way that now if you search for ‘tofo-‘ TOFOP comes up rather than TOFOG Russell Crowe’s band which the podcast is named for.
For that to happen, I think both Tommy and Karl and the fans will have to work a little harder to make that happen.

During the podcast recording it looked like Tommy, Karl and Wil all got through 2 pints of beer each.
I’m not sure how they’re about to put away that much beer than a few hours later do a show, just the remembering stuff and what to do must be a little bit taxing after a few beers. Or perhaps not, maybe in the comedy environment you learn how to carry your alcohol.
