Wilosophy With Wil Anderson

Strong recommendation to watch Troy's new series pilot, FULL STORY before listening to this ep. Troy goes deep on how he made it, including the stellar cast and crew he put together, how he self-funded it, and what lead him to take it on. Also: why Troy was literally “made the wrong way around”, the influence of John Edwards, and his secret writing/fitness camps.

Wil has jumped out of a plane (multiple times) and it's a curious fact that Charlie raises. When Wil decides he wants to zipline from the top of the Opera House, Charlie argues the risk is too great and comes up with ways to do it that won't put one of Australia's favourite comedians at risk. Wil is deeply offended that he can't do it and threatens to make it a diversity/PR issue for the public broadcaster. James Cameron chimes in with a prophetic warning about AI, Charlie raises his general anxiety about the state of the world, and we seek answers from the very thing that might destroy us.

It's the final episode of our SNL countdown and only four films remain - The Blues Brothers, MacGruber, Wayne's World 1&2 and Coneheads. Thankfully we're in high quality territory so now it just comes down to a question of personal preference. The questions extend far beyond what order Guy and Charlie will put them in, such as does Dan Ackroyd realise how odd he is and did Mike Myers become trapped by his own success. So, for the last time, live from The Video Store... IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT (live films)!

In a round of upsets, Charlie is the most upset over St Kilda's dismal performance, however the prospect of mounting a Frost/Nixon style stage play about the (fictionalised) animosity between Chris Scott and James Hird puts him in a good mood. Wil thinks it's still too early to draw any conclusions about teams, but what is indisputable is how good The Bont is.

A chat about headphone and audio quality leads to the creation of a musical based on the rapture. Wil and Charlie map out the plot points — who should play the antichrist?

Sam Darcy's form is making Wil forget that he was the kid who got a fishing hook caught in his thigh. Is the Sunday Footy Show just two hours of bullying?

Episode 2 of a 4-part series counting down Saturday Night Live's best movies. Last episode it was the undisputed bottom of the barrel, this week things heat up when hosts (Charlie Clausen, Guy Davis) dispute the validity of a 2000 'sex comedy' starring Will Farrell.

In an effort to seperate themselves from the media's obsession with "hot takes" Wil and Charlie are focussing only on "hot players" and it's apparently a topic you're all on board with. If we get into a Space Jam scenario, which team is best equipped to take on the Zircockian team? Charlie knows why the Saints don't get any respect, but what does a team actually have to do to get it?

Wil starts in a state of panic after refusing to take the bus home from his gig, so of course first five minutes of this pod they spend more time talking about 90's action movie Speed, than any footy. How have Hawthorn turned a bunch of weirdos into the best team going around? Wil did an awkward gig for the Melbourne Football Club, so he's okay with them being shit again. Charlie is addicted to Blue Abroad and their analogies and we read you submissions for the AFL's hottest player, with a surprise nomination already the front-runner.

A fire alarm causes a studio evacuation and producer Mike III kicks into action as the only fire warden on site before a quick detour into 'fortnite emoting' and the sad world of Musk. Then, what you've been waiting for — the culmination of Charlie's longstanding obsession with boyband, Five and its missing member. It turns out Jay is more than OK — he's back in the band and only TOFOP can unpack it.
