031: Richard Stubbs – Never be creative without passion

Richard Stubbs started his stand-up comedy career in 1983. A year
later he began his long running radio presenter career, that saw
him broadcast at 3XY, TripleM, 101.1 TT FM (now KIIS FM),
774 ABC, and most recently 3AW. In between, Richard also appeared
on and hosted Hey Hey It's Saturday and performed sold-out shows
at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.


And then, in 2015 he decided to take his own advice and leave
radio and reignite his passion for comedy.


In this School of Hard Knock Knocks podcast episode, I leave
the confines of this studio and meet Richard in a bustling St.
Kilda cafe to talk about life after radio, his hiatus from
stand-up, being witness to the metaphorical birth of Australia's
comedy scene, and his motto of saying 'yes' to everything.
