A Rational Fear with Bob Carr

Overview

The Chaser team recently cut the red tape on the Giant Dwarf, the restored Cleveland Street Theatre, as a hub for satirists. Enter the self-proclaimed '#QandA on crack', A Rational Fear, who'll be taking on one of Australian politics' most talked about former ministers of late: Bob Carr.

Led by Dan Ilic of Hungry Beast and Can of Worms, the politically-focused comedy outlet takes to Giant Dwarf monthly with some of the wittiest minds around taking on today's top stories. ARF recently hit a $50,000 funding goal on Pozible, so expect slow-burning world domination (or at least Australian daily political satire domination) to follow, as A Rational Fear becomes a ten-week digital comedy series.

Following the release of his controversial autobiography Diary of a Foreign Minister, the former federal Labor minister Bob Carr will be this month's special guest; to be grilled by Ilic and the ARF panel about everything from ICAC to pyjamas.

This month's instalment will also feature Greg Fleet, Lewis Hobba (triple j, Spicks and Specks), James Colley (Junkee) and Hannah May Reilly (Girls Gone Mild).

If you can't make it to Giant Dwarf on Monday, April 28 or if you can't muster the 20 clams for a ticket, FBi Radio will be broadcasting the show live from 8pm. The next instalment won't land until early June, so don't sit on your hands.
