It's 2021, baby! And you know what that means... you're lucky enough to have me give you my fringe recommendations like I'm that one friend at brunch who loves the sound of their own voice and won't let you get a word in.
That's right, podcasting is cool again now that the initial wave of COVID-boredom-bred casts have subsided and only the very best (five-week-long) podcasts are left to shine!
The FRINGE BENEFITS Podcast has officially launched for 2021 with a new and improved format that focuses on what we really want to hear; secrets of the fringe from a fanatical fan (who has tendencies to sneak in backstage to shows that she has no business being at) and reviews of said shows (reviews strictly from being an audience member... no stage-left recs).
This Fringe season, we'll be bringing out episodes every week on Friday mornings for you to tune into - best listened to at your desk while counting down the minutes till 5pm while you're wanting Fringey vibes before frothy knock-offs.
Every episode will include some Adelaide Fringe updates, reviews from shows and recommendations for your upcoming week.

Oh, my little babies. How we have waited. How we've speculated!
Rumors circulating that a Pacific arm of the twelve-year long-running Drag Race franchise has been running rampant - with Buzzfeed lists of our favourite queens picked to compete bookmarked in my browser (for stalking of course) for at least a year now.
Waiting with bated breath and a Kylie Minogue Rosé in hand, Ru Paul's Drag Race Down Under has been confirmed.
The new series, which has finally been confirmed to be filming in New Zealand (let's just say that, as I work for a certain company, a certain New Zealand studio emailed me with a vague overview that I highly suspected was about Drag Race Down Under, and have been waiting for the public announcement since that day), with the news breaking from streaming platform, Stan.
Nick Forward, Stan Chief Content Officer, said “You asked for it Australia, and now we’re bringing it to you – finally, our very own Aussie Drag Race, the new Stan Original Series RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under! The series is already a huge hit with our audience, so to now be working with RuPaul and the entire team at World of Wonder to create a local version is beyond a thrill. We can’t wait to reveal all the guest judges and see what our local queens bring to the global sensation that is RuPaul’s Drag Race.”
- Kath & Kim
- J'amie Private School Girl
- DAME EDNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Any reference to Cold Chisel
- The Nutbush
- Courtney Act (unlikely, but I'm hopeful!)
- Muriel's Wedding
- Not Happy Jan
- Priscilla, Queen of The Desert
- The Veronica's
- Broken Heel
- Kylie/Dannii Minogue
- Steve Irwin (RIP)
- Magda Szubanski
- Pauline Pantsdown
- Ian Thorpe
- Ru Paul's terrible Aussie accent
- And I'm hoping a nice little mention of our local Drag Bar, Mary's Poppin
