On this episode of The Agonies (recorded during the last week of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2025) Grace Jarvis talks to comedians Guy Williams & Broden Kelly (Aunty Donna) about the mental terrorism of comedy festivals, realising all your heroes are monsters, getting handed envelopes of cash by Netflix and Antipodean cultural cringe.

Grace will be performing at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August: https://underbellyedinburgh.co.uk/events/event/grace-jarvis-just-because-im-crying-doesnt-mean-im-not-having-a-nice-time
