TID Talks - Ideas Not Worth Spreading

TidTalks is a unique-ish* show, in which 6 of Aotearoa’s finest comedians and improvisers will do will do what comedians do best - appear confident and pretend they know exactly what they’re talking about. The twist? They won’t know what their subject of “expertise” is, until they walk onto the stage! Luckily though, they will have help in the form of slides (they won’t have seen them either, but anyway), to guide themselves and the audience on a journey of ideas which are definitely not worth sharing.

Topics have included:
How actively melting Antarctic ice could be the answer to the climate crisis
How to detect a narcissist using a metal detector
What strip clubs can teach us about effective pedagogy
Competing for the title of best speaker of the word of bollocks on 24 Jan, we have:
Hoani Hotene
Dr. Jo Prendergast
Hamish Webber
Georgia West Cahill
Sam Gibson
Troubadette
The show will be MC’d by the genius Matt Lilley.
Thought provoking, definitely not ridiculous TidTalk topics and slides will be written and created by the deep thinker and academically gifted comedian, Eve Wingerath
