About this episode
Olaf Falafel: The Seriously Silly Art of Being Stupid 🎙️ Episode Overview Strap in for a brilliantly bonkers conversation as Steve Otis Gunn chats with comedian, illustrator, author, and all-round mischief-maker Olaf Falafel. From gaslighting his mum with a fart machine to reinventing kids’ comedy one parp at a time, Olaf brings stories as colourful as his graphic novels. They dive into his early days on the stand-up circuit, his sideways leap into children’s books, the chaos of school visits, and the surprising depth of misheard lyrics. Steve and Olaf also bond over comfort-TV favourites (The Office, Red Dwarf, Quantum Leap), celebrity-podcast fatigue, Gregg’s gingerbread muffins, and the eternal mystery of whether mayo counts as dairy. 🌟 Episode Highlights The joys of performing toilet humour for kids (and Brownies) How a love of sci-fi, mischief, and doodles fused into his new graphic-novel series The Far Out Five Why comedians secretly make the best children’s authors Teaching kids to make the perfect “inward duck fart” This episode is perfect for anyone who loves clever silliness, creative chaos, and comedy that’s as joyful as it is ridiculous — or who just wants to know which animal makes the best fart. 🎠About Olaf Olaf Falafel is an award-winning comedian, illustrator, and bestselling children’s author known for his brilliantly silly humour and distinctive artwork.
