Champagne Comedy Podcast
This is the ChampagneComedy.com podcast, and heading our channel tonight... From 1992 to 1993, the ABC broadcast 40 episodes of The Late Show, consisting of Melbourne Revue graduates who got their first taste on TV as The D-Generation. Originally a low-rating comedy show that was live across Australia full of cheap jokes, cheap props and bad acting, the show gained a cult following and inspired many comedians and performers to help where they got to today. Also the fans. Definitely the fans. The fan owned and operated site 'Champagne Comedy' has been online in some type of form since the early days of dial-up in 1996. Thanks to the evolution of the internet, 'Champagne Comedy' continues to pay tribute to the cast and crew of The Late Show, Frontline, The D-Generation and their other projects they create to make us all laugh. ** We scrutinise and overanalyse every joke and everything, so don't say we didn't warn you. ** Join the dedicated fans on this podcast as we raise a glass and toast champagne sketch comedy! Note: this podcast is not associated with ABC, Working Dog and other associates. www.champagnecomedy.com Produced by Matt Fulton Productions. mattfulton.com.au Hosted on Acast.

Alison has buried herself into her personal archives and found a cassette tape from the mid 1990s.
"Who cares? Get off my podcast feed!" I hear you ask ... well, for one thing - keep it down. I can hear you from down the road.
Second of all, you should care, because Alison painstakingly digitised the tape and it turns out it was a classic interview she conducted back in her teens, chatting to Tom Gleisner. This was around the tim...
