Wilosophy Returns
Reporter
Wil Anderson fans will be excited for the return of his popular interview-based podcast, Wilosophy, with regular weekly programming and all new episodes on LiSTNR.
Wilosophy launched in 2014 and features legendary Australian comedian Wil Anderson asking smart people stupid questions, all in the hopes of finding the meaning of life. The outcome is often compelling conversations that delve deep, resulting in what many guests describe as “a bucket list experience”.
Musical comedian and recent guest, Gabbi Bolt, says much of her work as a comedian is scripted, so she was delighted to have the opportunity to engage in a free-flowing, bigger-picture chat about life with Wil.
“It means the world to be featured on Wilosophy among such high-profile acts — people like Judith Lucy and Shaun Micallef — so early in my career,” she says.
The all-new episodes introduce up-and-coming Australian comics along with a host of outstanding international acts including American writer, comedian, and actress Fortune Feimster, fan favourite comedian, actor and writer Cameron James, broadcasting royalty Libbi Gorr, radio darling Liam Stapleton and one of this country’s sharpest writers, James Colley.
The podcast has also spruced up its look with shiny new artwork from South Australian artist James Fosdike’s comic-realism style illustration.
Anderson is excited to be talking to comedians including household names or those you may not recognise.
“They’re guests I’m passionate about and admire, and I think they’ll have something fascinating to share on the podcast,” Anderson says.
LiSTNR Original Podcasts Head of Entertainment and Culture, Sam Cavanagh adds that the Wilosophy podcast has become a rite of passage for many Australian comedians.
“The rapport that Wil builds with his guests takes the conversations into uncharted territory, all while showcasing Wil’s unique insights and masterful humour.”
