We got our dates wrong. Well, we, I'm including her in the we, in the royal we.
Oh, we, yeah, yeah. We all did.
Chapter 2: What podcasts do the hosts recommend for listeners?
We all got our dates wrong. Also, like a lot of times what happens in these situations is there is a publicist or some sort of PR person that's in between, in betwixt. That's another layer of complexity to this whole thing.
Now, if things don't work out today, then I'm going to say it's Courtney Dawson's fault. Okay. Okay? Just so we know. Okay. That's going to be my call. And I just, that's...

Was that a lie? It was actually you.
It was actually you, wasn't it? No. Is there a possibility that I had- Push the home button. Or that the public- Oh, my chance. Or that the public has had, and then somebody's just said, oh, it was Courtney Dawson's fault. Well, the only person I heard say it was Courtney Dawson's fault. Yeah.

Chapter 5: How do hecklers impact a comedian's performance?
At 8.30 on TVNZ2. Oh, just after Game of Two Halves.
It's a big show for TVNZ2. Yeah. It's their big comedy. Is it?
Yeah, it is. It's a hell of a cast they've got in there. Brett McKenzie, Rosemary Fowden, and she's doing well over there in the UK.
Isn't she?
Isn't she doing well over there?
She is doing very, very well.
That's the funny thing. All of the comedians that we've talked to about the New Zealand comedy scene, they all say as soon as you go overseas, you just start absolutely crushing it. Because it's so hard to get a laugh out of anyone here in New Zealand. I've been to comedy gigs. In fact, I've been to one of Courtney Dawson's comedy gigs. And maybe I'll bring this up with her.
I don't know if she'll remember this. You heckled her?

Chapter 6: What are the details of Courtney Dawson's upcoming shows?
No, but a row of drunk women behind me heckled her. But they were supportive heckles. So as she was going through her bits, she was, like, you know, getting to the punchline. And as she was getting there, the drunk girls behind me were going, woo! Like, in support of her. Like, yeah! And, like, agreeing with everything that she said. That's a good question. Would you like, do you want that?
No, you could see her being like, hey, I've actually got a punchline coming here. Can you just shut the fuck up?
They were getting up all of her time. They were screwing up her timing.
Yeah, yeah. And so there was that, and then the other one was Hurley came out. He was emceeing that gig, and he was like, just so you guys know, we can't hear a smile. So if you want to laugh, laugh. But if you're sitting there just smiling away.
It's like radio.
Yeah, well, that's exactly it.

Chapter 7: How does Courtney feel about returning to comedy after a break?
We can't hear anything. A little wry turn up of the lips. No.
We can't hear anything. Sometimes, I mean, if you ever do a radio show by yourself, You are sitting in a soundproof room talking out into the abyss and you're like, does any of this make any sense?
But there'll be laugh talking. Generally people will say, hey, coming up after the break. They'll laugh at their own jokes.
Yeah. The laugh talking, that is a bastion of the solo show, isn't it?
It's a problem, but I've noticed it's oftentimes a problem as well with the radio host come television show. Personality. So a person who- Was on radio. Cuts their teeth on radio. Gets their teeth cut. And then decides to make the transition- Transitions? To television. And when I say makes the transition, it just appears on television in any way, shape, or form.
Because the two are very different.

Chapter 8: What insights does Courtney provide about writing comedy material?
Yeah. The energy it's required through your voice on radio- Is more? Is massive. Yeah. And all you need on TV is a look.
Yeah.
Yeah, you told me that. Sometimes a pause.
And just the fact that you're on there is often enough, although sometimes not enough.
According to some people. According to some people. Some producers.
Yeah. We did talk about it. I am going to be on a couple of episodes of Game of Two Hearts. They sent me an email saying, oh, look, it's not ACC does Game of Two Hearts, so we're going to rotate through all the people. So every week it's going to be different people on there. So that was the last correspondence I had.
And then the next one was, hey, Laura's coming on to promote Game of Two Halves. And actually before that it was, and shout out to you, the thousands of people who tagged me in every bit of marketing that they did.
Oh, that's awesome. That's always nice.
