Ep 30- I Went Busking To See How Hard It Really Is (With Cassie Workman)
If you frequent the CBD you’ll almost certainly pass by a busker plying their trade on the side of the footpath. But do you ever stop to think about why somebody might subject themselves to something as daunting as performing for the public where anyone might see them? What kind of person does it take to get up to busk? That’s what I wanted to find out this week on Sydney Tonight. With the help of recent busking debutant Layne Body (https://www.instagram.com/laynebody/) I got out in front of the QVB to see just how hard busking actually is.
And I’m really spoiling you this week because joining me as my special guest on the show is comedian, writer, and performer Cassie Workman (https://www.instagram.com/thecassieworkman/?hl=en)! After touring her show You Are Here around the globe this year, Cassie stopped by the Sydney Tonight studios to chat about some of her early roles on TV (including Tonightly and Mad As Hell), why she prefers to work alone, and a very surprising trip across the Nullarbor.

BONUS- Josh Khoury Is Sorry For The Way He Is
And ykw? So am I because in this special bonus episode Josh Khoury (https://www.instagram.com/joshua__khoury/?hl=en) and I spend a lot of time talking about movies that I haven’t seen but arguably really should have. But there’s also some interesting stuff to be heard in this bonus episode too! Stuff like the lookalike contests Josh used to run in the city, his mission to visit and review every urinal in Sydney, and the fact that he’s so-so on animal cruelty! Lots of love to Josh, he was so kind for coming in literally the day after arriving back from the Edinburgh Fringe festival and riding the wave of jet lag like an absolute pro.
If you want to catch Josh live, he’s got two shows (https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/josh-khoury-trial-show-tickets-2003329063156) in December that I would URGE you to check out!

Ep 29- The Biggest Festival You've Never Heard Of (With Josh Khoury)
No other suburb in all of Sydney has a claim to fame quite like Eastwood does, as it is the home of THE granny smith apple! As in, the disgusting green fruit that I have never eaten by choice. That comes from Eastwood! And every year they hold a big festival to celebrate it, so this time I went along to see what all the fuss was about. Or that’s how it started, before I developed an even better plan to invite my friend Annabelle along and secretly enter her in the singing competition.
But there’s more to tonight’s show than singing and apples. There’s Josh Khoury (https://www.instagram.com/joshua__khoury/?hl=en)! One of the most exciting new comedians in the country joined me on the show to talk about his hugely successful year (winning both RAW Comedy and So You Think You’re Funny in Edinburgh), his plight to visit and review every urinal in Sydney, and brainstorm an alternative race to rival the Melbourne Cup.
Josh will be doing some trial shows in December, so grab your tickets (https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/josh-khoury-trial-show-tickets-2003868261914?aff=ebdssbpointsofinterest) to see him in action!
