Meg Jager is a proud Brisbane girl first and foremost. Beyond that, she is an ex bookshop attendant, a relief-teacher, and a future star comedian. Her career in the bookstore went for longer than it should have after she worked through her first ever panic attack. She moved onto teaching, where she was bullied by a power hungry tool (category 3 in Bron’s infamous teacher theory), and then began her promising journey into stand-up. Her epic bomb story is super cringe, so if that’s your cup of tea (it is certain ours), then this is the ep for you! Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Laurence AKA ‘The Voice of Melbourne’ is well known for his riffing at Flinders Street Station. His aesthetic is that of a comtemporary Hagrid, and his energy matches that of Jack Black, so he is solely responsible for making Melbourne PT extremely entertaining. With an enormous online following under his belt, it did make us wonder, ‘Where did this bloke come from?’ Well, we discover that he used to be a removalist who taught Bretty how to destroy a toilet, and a postie who insisted on his own sound system that blasted insane bagpipes throughout the suburbs. This episode was intense. He’s a big fella with big feelings, and we were here for it. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’!

Max Price is a man of many talents. He is a stand-up, an online sensation, a dad, an esteemed writer, and a bloody loveable bloke. He came on the pod with a story for Bretty and a story for Bron, and both were excellent. Max explains how he broke not one, but two bones just to hang out with his friends, which may very well be the most desperate story we’ve ever heard. We also learnt that his comedy career took him to the dizzying heights of the red carpet, and how his partner and baby sabotaged his chance of getting papped. Like it or lump it, this was one of our favourite interviews to date. Enjoy this episode of ‘Work Hates’.
