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.

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.

Patch #66 - What Do You Consider When Describing Yourself?

With Dion back on the mic, we begin by questioning his curious choice to take place his call in another room but on speaker. This quickly turns into a debate about phone etiquette, hands-free habits, and whether Dion’s long-standing fear of mobile radiation is paranoia or just good prep. We also examine the strange acoustics of speaker mics, the performance of whispering taxi drivers, and the phone-in-bra technique favoured by certain mums.

Next, we tackle the strange panic that sets in when a rogue soccer ball rolls your way at the park. Josh recounts a high-pressure moment in Princes Park where he had to choose between a casual pass or a full-blown toe-bash. Do you prioritise style or accuracy? Should you stick to the sport’s rules when returning the ball? And is there a small part of all of us that hopes we’ll be immediately recruited?

Finally, we chew over one of life’s most quietly stressful conundrums: where do you throw away chewing gum when there’s no bin around? Flick it, wrap it, or pocket it for later disposal?

Patch #148 - Do You Panic When A Ball Rolls Your Way?

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.
