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.

If you've listened to the Champagne Comedy Podcast Episode 82 / Funky Squad Episode 3 / "A Shot In The Dark" recap, then this is for you.
Legendary Australian Actor and Entertainer Rhys Muldoon chats to Daniel G and Matt about his 3 minute role on Funky Squad, which we milk for around 20 minutes. Because that's what we do.
Get nostalgic as we also chat to him about his role on Chances and what that has to do with the podcast....
