**Nominated for 'Best Comedy' at the Australian Podcast Awards 2018 & 2019**

Have you ever wondered if it’s acceptable to bring food to someone's house and take it back home if no one has eaten it? Well if you have, then you’re in good company. Christian, Dion and Josh are Welcome to Patchwork: An Australian comedy podcast that thinks too hard about the monotony of life. By debating the obvious, challenging social conventions and improvising sketches, we're more concerned with the crumbs than the cookie.

Have you ever wondered if it’s acceptable to bring food to someones house and take it back home if no one has eaten it? Christian, Dion and Josh are Welcome To Patchwork: An Australian comedy podcast that stares far too hard at everyday life.

Patch #102 - How To Try Before You Buy

Our scraps runneth over. In this bonus follow-up to Patch 147, we continue sewing together all the little scraps of ideas that never made it into full episodes - but that doesn’t make them any less deserving.

This week, we ask:
When leaving an event, do you need to say a second goodbye if you've already said goodbye but need to reenter the room to grab your forgotten jacket?
Should your donation amount be influenced by the donations that came before you?
What’s your personal threshold for concert ticket pricing?
How do you get out of your car when parked in a tight space?
And why don’t garages have windows?

Bonus Patch Full O' Scraps

From coughing fits to crusty sourdoughs, this episode is made entirely of scraps - old notes, fleeting thoughts, and the kinds of ponderings that once felt too small, too odd, or too unworthy to make the cut. But today, they shine.

In this rapid-fire, patchwork-style patch, we discuss:
The weird intimacy of bringing a list of topics to dinner
Why Christian thinks fridges have made us forget the meaning of "fresh"
Is putting found items higher really helping the original owner?
Emojis vs. "haha" - which carries more social weight?
Nonno throws out a brand new phone, but keeps 1997 soft drinks
The stress of coughing while trying to finish a story
Walking past a housemate: acknowledge? ignore? perform?
The violent pain of sourdough and how to eat it safely
“Myriad” reasons to hate people who know they're using “myriad” correctly

So grab your blunt knife, lift that lost glove to eye level, and join us as we stitch together a new patch - out of scraps.

Patch #147 - Patch Full O' Scraps

In this Bonus Patch, Josh reflects on a surprise 40th birthday party that involved sparklers, toilet-based serenading, and a photo album of friends’ feet. He also explores the strange urge to prove you “get it” — whether it’s bonding with bar staff over POS systems or reminding everyone he once worked in hospo. Meanwhile, Christian finds himself nodding along a little too eagerly at a party, bluffing his way through a conversation about coding. 

We also discuss whether tram drivers should be forced to wave at each other, fantasise about life as a train driver, and try to figure out why people insist on having long conversations right at the bar.
