Melbourne comic Tim "Big Hewy" Hewitt joins us today on our special 'Olympic Reflections' mini-series!
We start with a very recent memory (Anastacia's parochial reaction to the Brisbane 2032 bid win), before deep-diving Australia's brief and weird obsession with the pole vault, triggered by gold medallist/psycho redhead Steve Hooker and the glamorous Tatiana Grigorieva. That naturally leads to a discussion around swimming dads and illegal body suits.
After the break we talk Stilnox and gun laws before gleefully veering off-piste via a chance reference to Jana Pittman's adult braces. We close things out by imagining how the UFC would go as an Olympic sport.
Give Hewy a follow on Insta (@hewybaby) for some elite Olympics video content and for updates on upcoming comedy gigs. His podcast, Feed Em Brah, is also available on all the usual channels.
