How many LOLs can Australia’s favourite kids’ comedians squeeze into one hour? Let’s find out.
Hold onto your cowpats! After nearly two decades of seriously silly nonsense, Matt and Rich (aka The Listies) have whipped up their most ridiculous show yet — a turbo-charged mash-up of fan favourites, slapstick, songs, and a fresh batch of brand-new, freshly-hatched gags. It’s a comedy extravaganza for kidults aged 5 to 5 million (dinosaurs welcome).
Expect:
The world’s ugliest baby
The solar system’s silliest cowboys
The Universe’s best toilet paper cannons
More bubbles than have ever existed in the history of history
Even more bananas
Literally no exaggerations
*Also a possible cameo from Batman (they texted him, fingers crossed)
Hot on the heels of their brand new joke book (This Book Is a Joke, Scholastic 2025) and its sequel (This Book Is a Joke Too, 2026), The Listies bring the spirit of the gag page to the stage with chaos, cardboard props, questionable costumes and zero educational value (although, knowing teachers, they’ll find something).
At long last, a show that answers the most important question ever asked: Why did the chicken cross the road? Spoiler Alert: To get a sausage at Bunnings.
It’s sketch comedy for kids.
It’s a variety show gone bananas.
It’s the show that will have audiences saying: This Show is a Joke!
