Hi Aunty Donna! Huge fan from Singapore here. Met Mark at PAX Aus last year at the Insert Coin booth when I volunteered, where I got quite possibly the best photo of Mark ever.

I've got a couple questions.

1. As a fan from Singapore who unfortunately can't visit you guys in Australia or in the US this year, there's no chance for me to see your "Big Boys" show. Is there any chance that you guys are going to film your entire show and maybe you could distribute it yourselves on your website? I would pay so much money for this.

2. Alternatively, could you guys come perform in Singapore? It's like 5 hours away from Melbourne. Unfortunately I can't guarantee it's going to be a packed house.

3. I contribute $15 every month to your Patreon and I love the content you're giving, with the super secret podcast and a behind-the-scenes look at Aunty Donna's formative years, but at some point, you guys are probably going to run out of "history" to tell your frems. What sort of content will you give then?

4. I wanted to ask if you guys ever "switch off" because in every single interview I've seen you guys give, you guys are always "on". But then I listed to The Comedian's Comedian podcast yesterday and got a huge insight into how you guys operate, which is pretty amazing. In the podcast, you guys mentioned what you guys thought about the future of Aunty Donna. Is there anything we can do to help make that future vision come true? Because I don't want to miss the opportunity to see you guys perform live.

5. I've visited Melbourne twice, but I don't know too much about it. Could you guys recommend me your favorite places to go to in Melbourne?

Thanks guys! Sorry for the long questions.

Do non-Muslims live there as well? And if so, are they allowed to have a polygamy?

Also, I've always had a problem with the terminology. How do you refer to your father's other wives? Do you call them "Umi" or something else entirely?

So you have 5 siblings from your mother, and 21 other siblings from two of your father's other wives. Are you close to any of the other 21 of your siblings? I mean, you guys stay in different households, since that's the rule, right? Do you usually hang out with a brother...from another mother?

You guys argue and discuss and point out a lot of stuff in After Hours that I never even realized, such as the Super Mario thing, or the whole Back to the Future weirdness. How do you guys come up with this genius stuff?

And another question, what other fanbases can we expect to see covered in upcoming episodes of After Hours? I'm a big fan of sci-fi, but personally I'd like to see some Fantasy related stuff, like LOTR or Game of Thrones.

Broden, thanks so much for replying. Watching the livestream on Facebook right now, and I genuinely fanboyed a little when you read my question live.

With regards to question 1, you could distribute it "Louis C.K." style, where he sells his shows for $5 each on his website, although he's rich already. Maybe you could sell it for $20.

With regards to question 3, I've got nothing. You guys are the super creative ones, I just like to consume like the greedy consumer I am. Is it possible for you guys to do a video podcast? Maybe distribute that at the $15 Patreon level.

With regards to question 4, don't get me wrong, I love it when you guys don't "switch off". It was genuinely a bit jarring to hear you guys reflect and be introspective with Stuart Goldsmith, but ultimately it was a treat. Another person asked a question about how do you guys know if you're being serious at a particular time or if you're joking, and you answered that you guys do "joke hands", which is great, because sometimes on the podcast, I can't tell if you guys ever unintentionally hurt each others' feelings. Perhaps this is where the video poddies can come in.

And with regards to question 5, Melbourne coffee is the fucking best, hands down.

Oh I do have one more question. I'll be heading to Melbourne for PAX Aus again this year. I know you guys went to PAX East in Boston earlier this year, so is there a chance that I will see you guys at PAX Aus in October?
