Yeah definitely. It's just an extension of their radio show and podcasts (which I love) that they've been doing together for years.

Karl is certainly not being taken advantage of here (although I can see how it could look that way).

I suppose I should give it a go ... the 'look at the man humilate himself (staged or not) in front of Johnny Foreigner' angle doesn't do much for me.

Then again I could barely watch The Office, too real if you're a cube rat in real life

Extras I liked more for some reason.

Yes I saw that too. As much I really like them and have been waiting for them to tour Aus for a while now, the fact they are playing at the Entertainment Centre AND the tickets start at $80 is a bit of a turn off.

I would have thought that a comedy act like them would prefer to play in more intimate venues, rather than the impersonal ones like Boondall.
