Adelaide: Completely Incomplete History Of Australian Rules

He’s going back to back!

After sold outs shows last year – Michael Chamberlin – the creator of the AFL quiz show The Beep Test and co-host of The Junktime AFL Podcast – returns for two shows only at the Adelaide Fringe.

A must for footy fans of all ages. Over 170 years of stories that you just won’t believe are true.

Was Tom Wills – the inventor of the game – Australia’s version of Forrest Gump – showing up in many significant moments in this country’s history? Yes.

Did Aussie troops shout ‘Up There Cazaly’ as a rallying cry during World War 2? Yes.

Did a group of millionaires in the ’80s propose a team called the LA Crocodiles? Yes.

Don’t think! Do! See this show!

Melbourne: Thanks For Your Help

A brand-new hour of stand-up from the co-host of the Junktime AFL podcast who spends most of his time being a comic and the writer for heaps and heaps and heaps of comedy shows on TV.

Did I mention heaps?

There will be verbs, nouns, adjectives and swearing. All the good stuff.

Here are some things strangers have said…aren’t they nice?

‘Entertaining and intelligent – this guy is funny.’ Adelaide Advertiser

‘You enter his word with confidence – what he sees is worth sharing.’ Herald Sun

‘This show won’t suck – I promise. Michael Chamberlin
