Today on Wilosophy, Tom Ballard returns! Mixing comedy and politics isn't anything new for Tom. But how do you be funny in times of tension and polarisation? That's the premise of Tom's new show, Be Funny Challenge (Impossible). In this episode, Tom and Wil discuss navigating the current political climate as comedians, activist art, and why joking doesn’t mean you don’t take important issues seriously. Tom also shares about his Melbourne Fringe play, JKS? a Comedy(?), which is getting a special run at MICF this year.

The Bee Gees 'You Should Be Dancing' is a disco classic. But one particular line in the lyrics has Charlie (and the internet) puzzled. We dive deep on deciphering the lyrics and the meaning behind the song. Plus, an epic Crack That Pack fail.

Charlie is joined by Dees fan Rana Hussain to discuss why she wants to know what it's like to be tackled and who's on her sh*tlist. We also look at all the action from round one, including, Max Gawn's leadership, Freo's flakiness and that dirty sniper Pendles finally being brought to justice.

It's another return guest this week, as Wil checks in with Bronwyn Kuss! Contrary to the episode title, Bron doesn't have any sons - or daughters, for that matter. But a drunk witch did tell her once that she'd make a great mum. Bron is still undecided about the whole thing. In this great conversation with Wil, she discusses morning routines, working at a butcher shop, her new standup show Bronwyn Kuss & Sons, and more.

Welcome to another TOFOP! Just before we recorded this episode, a text response Charlie received from Wil had him confused and little concerned...but Wil sets the record straight. Then the guys wonder what a podcast cruise might look like. Could we do a TOFOP Cruise?! Plus, Charlie can't sleep and it might have something to with watching AI disaster simulation videos at night. Then, Charlie's meeting with a psychic gets the guys talking about souls, the afterlife and imagining a new movie set in limbo.

Charlie is joined by high-priced recruit Adam Spencer to look back at all the Opening Round action. We ask the big question, like is Charlie Curnow the Jack Harlow of Sydney? Will Clayton Oliver be the first Giant to actually live in Western Sydney? Are Gold Coast going to have to rename their legendary nightclub Tracks to Trac's? We also look at the best game of the year (so far) with the Dogs win over the Lions and Charlie urges Saints fans not to panic, but geez, maybe someone should have tagged Daicos.

It's been a long time coming, but the wonderful Hannah Gadsby has made their Wilosophy debut! In this delightful chat with Wil, Hannah discusses their new comedy special and album, Woof! - two distinct, but complementary, visual and audible experiences. Hannah shares their creative process behind the special, video vs audio, and the callbacks and Easter eggs that make Woof! an experience designed for repeat viewing/listening. Plus; the owl that showed up to Hannah's wedding, what it's like to have a billboard in Times Square, and why Wil compares Hannah to Kendrick Lamar.

Wil and Charlie kick off today's episode wondering why only two members of U2 got nicknames. Then the discussion turns to who would win in a fight: TOFOP vs Aunty Donna. Plus, we've got lots of letters! Catching up on a backlog of emails, we dive into AI and the podcast it thinks Charlie hosts, the Riyadh comedy festival, the Scorsese documentary series, and much more.
