From Punk to Comedy - Ben Searle - Episode 8 - yesyesyes podcast

Welcome back, dear listeners, to the yesyesyes podcast! I'm your host, Stuart Daulman, here alongside the ever-enthusiastic Oliver Coleman. Dive into a fresh episode as we embrace positivity and humour with our wonderful guest, Ben Searle - a very funny Melbourne comedian with a rich history in punk music.

In this episode, we get the inside scoop on Melbourne's vibrant comedy and music scenes. From managing local spots like Catfish Comedy to discussing the evolution of musical trends, Ben shares his journey and the quirky essence of Melbourne's unique cultural landscape. Ever wondered about those niche music genres that seem too out there to comprehend? We've got you covered!

Join us as we park on the other side of the road, witnessing life’s unexpected moments unfold—like the drama of a tow truck encounter—adding to the unfiltered and organic essence of our chat. Plus, we explore the dynamics of noise music, share amusing personal anecdotes, and ponder on the subtleties of collaborative art scenes versus solo comedy careers.

This episode isn't just about laughs; it’s about the little joys we say 'yes' to every day. Whether it's rearranging the home for minimal screen time, lauding the charm of lighthouses, or getting hooked on the earthy notes of matcha, there’s something everyone can relate to. And of course, the hearty thank-youse and endless gratitude for you, our listeners, for being the positive community we cherish sharing these experiences with.
