Really loved this one, would love to hear more like this. Although I did think it was a sketch a few times haha

ChatGPT says you are in fact the Beatles of Melbourne based sketch comedy: „If you’re looking for the “Beatles” of weird and niche Melbourne-based sketch comedy—that is, a group that’s both influential and iconic within that specific realm—one name that stands out is Aunty Donna.“

It always made me a bit sad when a sincere episode is promised only to be debased by over the top comedy and loud jokes. You blokes have lovely personalities.

Christine Cardoz

something so cute about watching Mark and Broden just be buddies

Beer Houdijk

Loved this!

Thom Kitimat

This was such a great combination of being really interesting whilst still being funny! Between subscribing here and Leguizamarama you all are a slightly concerning percentage of my week and it's nice to hear about the history.

Piss Wallace

Well this was simply lovely 🥰

Julie Graham

This was a genuinely beautiful insight into Aunty Donna! You guys should be so proud of the impact you have made on comedy! And on bringing sunshine into people's lives!!

You will see us all? Bold claim

Florian Florian

This is the Beatles of genuine sincere poddys

Florian Florian

Or did we

Gray is cool

I will admit, as much as I love silly fuckhead tomfoolery, this was just really nice. I had to do an extra hour of driving today and it was nice to just be hanging out with my boys. Thank you for this

Kael Driscoll

I'll just add my vote for more behind the scenes history info for us nostalgia sluts please

Zoe Elms

big fan of this kind of poddy :) would be keen for more in the future (and hopefully with the other boys too)

Benjamin Trapanese

Zach absent because he can’t be genuine around you boys? Or is it because he’s still the shapeshifting worm and he doesn’t know how this all started

Crispin

Which podcast ep was the Haven't You Done Well one?

Paul Wilcox

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Genuine candid chat between the boys. Shame Zach couldn’t add anything

Jay Gillenwater

This was like the Beatles of podcast episodes for someone who appreciates Broden and Mark banter (me)

Hazelboobs

Loved this episode! Love the sincere pods and videos. Also love that you just dropped the group name origin so casually after years of evading the question 😂

Danger Ferret

Please do this more often! I understand you've made a joke of never telling actual stories from the road, but you still managed to be very funny while telling interesting stories.

Aaron Phillips

This was a really nice introspective episode, cheers for sharing lads 👍 lots of love from old south(ish) wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Ted

I actually went back and rewatched the Deep Dive videos recently because I really enjoy hearing you all earnestly discussing your creative process - and today I was just listening to the poddie talking about the Haven't You Done Well series - so I loved this poddie! Thanks boys, well done

Dennis Owens

As someone that was a practicing attorney in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, when you all were in university, I can verify that Mark did post an article about the Simpsons.

Adam

This was hugely entertaining, thanks for your generosity in sharing. I really enjoyed these crazy characters!

Oscar Waldner

I never comment here but I must earnestly say that I absolutely loved this podcast. ❤️ I would love to hear more about your journey from Ballarat to where you are now.

Jess C

I love trendy cafe so much, I feel a bit giddy hearing that it was the opener. I watch it on youtube every now and then as a little treat. Loved this ep, I hope you do more like it 😌✨️

Sarah Groom

I really enjoyed this. Love the sincere deep dives!

Mystery man

This is a spectacular episode for the Donna lover! Honesty big ol smile maker

George

I can't believe we got a genuine origin story for the name

Jesse Page

I’m confused. I just listened to a coherent educational and insightful discussion.

Rian Bolger

Great pod boys! Defo do another like this sometime :)

Scott Forbes

Well there it is, the story of how they actually got their name! Not sure if I wanted to know

James brown

I know you guys tend to find it hard to be genuine without making it silly (Which is why we all love you). But that was such an enjoyable listen from start to finish. You guys deserve all the success you get.
