Problems with Splitting the Bill & Know-it-alls

Problems with Family Group Chats & Not Fitting In

This week on Problemz, Brynley Stent, Catherine Yates and Vincent Andrew-Scammell are joined by guest improviser Shanna Paese, who steps in seamlessly and immediately helps derail everything. We tackle a listener who’s been brutally left out of the family group chat, spiralling into theories, confrontations, and some truly cursed family dynamics. Then it’s onto a workplace identity crisis, where being the “old one” in the office leads to painfully unfunny jokes and some desperate attempts to fit in. 🎤 Got a problem? Send it in. 🎟️ We’re also LIVE at the NZ International Comedy Festival — May 7th, 9:15pm at Q Theatre Loft. Tickets are $23: https://www.comedyfestival.co.nz/problemz [https://www.comedyfestival.co.nz/problemz] Full episode out now. Come for the problems, stay for the terrible advice.

Problems with Egg Love & Mother-In-Laws

This week on Problemz, Brynley Stent, Catherine Yates and Vincent Andrew-Scammell are joined by special guest Shanna Paese — who’s running on zero sleep and absolutely thriving (or not). The team dives into a listener who wants to be vegan… but also eat eggs, someone trying to figure out how to tell their mother-in-law she’s not invited to the birth. Full episode out now. Come see us live at New Zealand Comedy Fest!

Problems with Following the Format

This week on Problemz, we’ve abandoned the format completely. No Brynley Stent [about:blank], no Bailey Poching [about:blank], and no improv - just Catherine Yates [about:blank] and Vincent Andrew-Scammell [about:blank] joined by special guests Ella Hope-Higginson [about:blank] and Milo Cawthorne [about:blank] for a full chaos hang. There's some flatting horror stories, genuinely terrifying late-night stories and a bunch of conversations that probably should’ve stayed off-mic. We will do better next time. It’s less “advice podcast” this week and more “four people absolutely derailing for 50 minutes.” Full episode out now. Got a problem? Send it in — we might actually get back to solving them next time.

Problems with Feeders & Not Being Seen

This week on Problemz, the advice is questionable and the problems are deeply unhinged. With Brynley Stent and Bailey Poching away, Catherine Yates and Vincent Andrew-Scammell are joined by special guests Ella Hope-Higginson and Milo Cawthorne to solve your problems the only way they know how: chaotic improv. This episode tackles some truly important questions: Is having a rotational towel system normal or deeply cursed? Is it embarrassing to walk back to your table with a Ponsonby Food Court pager? How early is too early for dinner with your parents? And if you’re messaging someone called Gina for relationship advice… is that cheating? Expect ridiculous improv scenes, terrible advice, and the kind of problem solving that probably shouldn’t be trusted.
