Tom Ballad – Doing Stuff

Tom Ballard, one half of Triple J’s morning breakfast show, is in full swing with Doing Stuff – as dramatically and theatrically funny as the twists and turns an hour in his presence takes.

With scally-wag charm, Ballard casts a brutal and passionate eye over politics, religion, gay-marriage and racism. He is energetic, quick and loud and more than confused about Australia’s obsession with reality television.

Ballard appears well-informed and is naturally engaging. He lays it all bare with his smutty tales of oral sex, masturbation, vomit and weird sex, peeling back social sensibilities and rubbing in the salt. Adventures of the offensive and hilarious are where Ballard rules and Doing Stuff hits the high notes.
