Hi guys thanks heaps for doing the AMA. Whether it's music or comedy or anything else seeing Australian artists like you guys be so successful internationally really gets me excited so congrats on everything you've achieved.
How do you guys feel about the current Australian comedy scene? As an observer it seems like there's a bit of a changing of the guard with a lot of young comedians starting to come through and replace the core group of 10 or so Australian people that have been on every gala and panel show for the last 15 years. It also seems like a lot of comedians who might've been considered too alternative a few years ago are starting to get some mainstream-ish recognition (you fellas, Sam Simmons, Anne Edmonds, Rhys Nicholson etc). So yeah what do you reckon about that?
Are there any up and coming Comedians in Australia or elsewhere that you'd encourage people to check out?
Finally, I remember hearing on the podcast that Sam and mark were pretty sceptical of the breakfast goat sketch that ended up being made, so have there been any other times where one or more of you thought a sketch wasn't going to work like maybe for example a sketch about an anthropomorphic bull being thrust into an office setting? Asking for a friend.
Best of luck with everything and thanks again for doing the AMA. I set an alarm just for it.
