I’m floored to receive the Piece of Wood Award today. It was a complete blindside and I didn’t have the presence of mind at the podium to say thank you, let alone mention my long suffering husband and good friend, Wade Duffin, and the fact that it’s our 16 year wedding anniversary today. And I didn’t mention the beautiful mate who’s the only reason I’ve been able to keep doing this job and who I miss so much. Thank you to her, and to my husband, and to the Wood folks for letting me in their weird club, to my loves at Token, and the Festival, and to all the incredible comedians and producers who inspire me and support me and make me proud to be part of this community. (Especially @nic_minstergram, @livelaughlauren__, @teen_zhangst, @bronlewiscomedy and the Newcomer Nominated @lozdriz who were such a joy to work with this Festival). I’m confused now because I thought my show title was sarcastic but I’m feeling some absolutely revolting earnest pride now, what has this done to me?
@theclairehooper isn’t quite convinced that the world is in safe hands with the next generations… #MICF #standup #schoolexcursion #reducereuserecycle
My husband takes the nicest pictures of me.

For the literally hundreds of people who’ve asked for a picture, here is the chair I re-covered, and here is good friend Xavier Michelides using the chair.

Remember Frocking Hilarious Sydney 2023? A killer line up of ten comics to celebrate ten years at Sydney Comedy Festival. Well, we’re back next week! Frocking Hilarious, Factory Theatre, Wed 8th May, 7.30pm. Bring a friend who needs a feelgood and funny night out!
Congratulations to my good mate Laurence Driscoll and the rest of the best newcomer nominees at this year’s Festival! I’m more proud of you than I am of my own children, Laurence. 📷 @nickmickpics
@joe.daymond is the next kiwi comic we are going to be obsessed with in Australia but his first few years in comedy were not without an awkward moment or two… “I turn to him and go: Bro, did I just mess up that whole interaction? And he goes: Yeah. You did.” Hear Joe’s story on I’m The Worst Ep 59.
Chloe Petts, Facebook stalking while podcasting. A great chat on ep 53 of I’m The Worst about all the awkwardness and anxiety of early teen years.

Hear the story of the hours that led up to this moment of dignity and self respect. I’m The Worst Ep 56: @thenikkibritton

Thanks Perth! A ripper night of The Guilty Feminist on Monday at the beautiful Astor Theatre with @gracepetriemusic, whatdoredidnext, @aishanovakovich and my dear mate and hero @dfdubz. Lots of memories and big feels for lots of reasons. Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra shows are still on sale with a different set of guests joining Deb every show.
Just a bit of fun backstage. @bronwynkuss

Thanks Roadshow. Thanks Cowes. Thanks Pietà for making us crouch in front of our audience for a photo when they’d finished clapping.

Back in my hometown for my favourite live podcast: “our noble goals as 21st century feminists and the hypocrisies and insecurities that underminnnnne them!” Tickets still available. Bring a friend and kick off the week with a really good time.
An honest and funny confession from one of my favourites.
Josh Jones is the sweetest man but wow this episode got suddenly explicit 20 mins in. Very funny, not for the faint hearted, enjoy!
I have the Best Show of winner from this year’s @sydneycomedyfestival on I’m The Worst! I’m ashamed to say that their story of wrongdoing is something I HAVE ALSO DONE, so you get two people confessing for the price of one. But honestly, how are we meant to remember our best friends’ birthdays? And how do they somehow always remember ours? And is it better to apologize straight away or cover it up our absent mindedness with a convoluted lie?
Both I’m The Worst episodes from the live podcast are out! First episode is the comedian and TikTok star Jenny Tian with a story of some questionable early online behaviour…
