#275 - Pete Helliar - Inside Comedy, TV & Strauchnie’s Legacy

Pete Helliar is a legend of Australian comedy, TV & Radio presenter including 9 years on "The Project" and the mastermind behind the beloved "Strauchnie".

It's always great to have a comic in the house and you don't get much bigger than Pete!

Pete shares how he got into comedy, his first gig and how it has evolved over time...including his first ever stand-up joke! Plus, the community radio show he had with unreal guests!

But things truly started to shift for him during the time he was on "Rove". Pete shares the unselfish moment Rove turned his back on a million-dollar deal (in his early 20's) to stick with his team and continue to grow the show's legacy. Plus, the hilarious celebrity guest appearance that went terribly wrong.

We talk about the idea for "Before the Game", a concept that Pete came up with, the legacy of the show and of course the legend of "Strauchnie".

We laugh at Strauchnie's most memorable moments, why he's still in demand today, convincing Collingwood & Mick Malthouse about the concept & the famous legend's game match!

Then the transition from sketches to serious TV at The Project & why Hughesy told him it won't work for a comedian!

Plus, GCO shocking confessions returns with a dark thought, Pete's Golf journey, missing out on playing with Ricky Ponting and so much more.

Strap yourself in, get ready to laugh and enjoy the legend who is, Pete Helliar!
