Not yesterday.

I wasn't fasting yesterday.

I think this year was like late February through to late March.

Perfectly timed for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, can I say that?

That's not a small issue because in the last few years, it's coincided because Ramadan, it's a lunar calendar.

So it gets earlier by like 11 days every year.

And for the last few years, it has overlapped with the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

And there was one year where it was almost exactly day for day.

And I have a friend, Nazeem Hussain, who's a Muslim stand-up comedian.

He didn't even clock that there was going to be overlap.

And he managed to book his show every night at sunset.

Oh, wow.

And so he had to literally break his fast on stage.

And I just said to him, mate, I'm not coming to see your show.

But also, I really hope you stop down for like five to ten minutes.

No, pretty much straight away.

Make sure you get that done.

And then I was in Canberra because I was doing a show called Insiders.

Now, I don't know how many Australian political junkies there are listening to this podcast.

No need to explain what Insiders is then.
