The Weekly with Charlie Pickering is a series on Australia’s ABC channel. Jimmy appeared on S9 Ep3, shown on February 22nd 2023, recorded in Melbourne’s ABC Southbank Centre.

It’s pre-recorded in front of a live audience and Jimmy was performing at Melbourne’s Hamer Hall from February 17th to 21st – so this clip would have been within that timeframe.

Pickering had previously been on another Australian show, The Project, which is why, when Jimmy comes on set, he says it’s like the Aldi Project.

Jimmy was touring Aus / New Zealand with his Terribly Funny 2.0 tour.

Topics covered:

  • People’s expectations of what he will be like
  • Technical skill of his jokes
  • 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown origins
