Episode 8
Published 11 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Carl Donnelly started the conversation with parenting chaos and sniffles, and ended up somewhere between veganism, biohacking, Irish summers, and the ethical implications of Star Wars.
Carl Donnelly is a comedian and writer known for his thoughtful, warm approach to stand-up, blending sharp observational humour with personal storytelling. A regular at the Melbourne Comedy Festival and Edinburgh Fringe, he's equally at home with identity, culture, and the philosophical implications of a galaxy far, far away.
- Why becoming a parent reshapes your relationship with the stories you grew up on
- How veganism changed his relationship with food, identity — and other vegans
- The biohacker rabbit hole and how far down it you can go before it becomes a personality
- Why Irish summers contain multitudes — and why they keep ending up in the material
- What Star Wars looks like when you watch it through the eyes of a small child who has absolutely no context for any of it
