The Hit Network’s Jimmy & Nath brought their LiSTNR podcast Born Funny to a live audience last week for the first time alongside comedians Luke Kidgell, Zainab Johnson, Pete Helliar, Lizzy Hoo and Dave Thornton.

Born Funny was created in 2020, with the pilot recorded with funnyman Luke McGregor. It wasn’t released until May 2023 when the podcast officially launched on LiSTNR. More than 40 episodes have been recorded since then talking about their upbringing and relationship with comedy including Dave ‘Hughesy’ Hughes, Geraldine Hickey, Tom Ballard, Wendell Sailor, Nina Oyama, Josh Thomas, Sooshi Mango, Christian Hull, Carla From Bankstown, Marlee Silva & Nicho Hynes, Trey Kennedy, Luke & Sassy Scott, Millie Ford, Two Broke Chicks, StinkyAsher and Tammin Sursok.

Jimmy and Nath decided to take the podcast to the big stage at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. In the Melbourne Lower Town Hall more than 200 listeners enjoyed a Jimmy & Nath hosted night with the five comedians.
