100: Katie Burch – Avoiding the waffle and being cruel

from Hard Knock Knocks Hosted by Hard Knock Knocks

Comedian Katie Burch didn't want to work at NASA or work towards world peace. She wanted to be a comedian, and a dark comedian at that. In this 100th episode of the School of Hard Knock Knocks podcast, host Steve Davis chats with former National Raw Comedy Finalist Katie Burch about what it takes to be a successful comedian, her life in a cult, and why appealing to a woke crowd isn't great for your comedy career. She also highlights the importance of suffering in the creation of jokes - or at least her preferred form of cruel dark comedy And if you enjoy this podcast, be sure to join our Facebook group The School of Hard Knock Knocks Community to stay abreast of upcoming courses, shows at The Rubber Chicken in South Melbourne, and general advice for comedy performers.
