April 8th, 2009 · 8 Comments

Sort of.
You see, in case you hadn’t heard, Luke has cancer and right now, he’s knee-deep in a critically acclaimed (no, seriously) show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. You may have noticed, if you’re a denizen of Melbourne, that Luke has been featured rather prominently in The Age this morning (the article can be [...]

February 11th, 2009 · 4 Comments
