Podcast | Funny in Failure

Catch up with Michael Kahan every Monday at 5pm AEST where he and his guests explore the deeper side of comedy.

Funny In Failure

A podcast that interviews funny and interesting people to discuss their careers and some of the challenges they have faced. I hope to use this platform to normalise and encourage the discussion of failure, particularly through the lens of the entertainment industry, to show that it can be a stepping stone towards the road of success.

Nothing is better than humour to normalise a situation, so having deep and meaningful conversations, interspersed with comedy and laughter, helps us celebrate and appreciate life’s frustrating moments.

Nick Hoff is a nationally touring stand-up comedian as well as an actor and writer who has been on MTV, co-hosts a weekly show on SiriusXM, and was a featured act in Netflix’s Comedy Festival. His debut album “Baby Daddy” hit #1 on the iTunes comedy charts, and his BRAND NEW comedy special “America The Final Season” is now out! (links in episode notes below). When he’s not on stage, Nick can often be seen in commercials for Miller Lite, Pepsi and Amazon.

Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy hand-picked Nick to open for them on their critically acclaimed “We’ve Been Thinking” Tour. He has headlined the “Pink Ribbon Comedy Tour” which made stops in 40 cities doing 65 shows all raising money for breast cancer research. He was also part of the “Walk of Shame” national comedy tour, which was not quite so noble a cause.

He also hosts the podcast “Hoffcast” where he trades stories with comedians, friends, and one astronaut (so far).

We chat about his brand new comedy special, self-belief, thriving in your own way, bombing, fear, his magical joke book, 10 years in the making to start stand up, taking risks, sharing ideas with the right people, plus plenty more

The video footage of this entire chat is now out as well (one day after release)!
