Hamish & Andy, Australia’s most successful podcast and radio duo, are unveiling their next big audio adventure: a new feed, Hamish & Andy Plus +, now available to stream on LiSTNR.
Hamish Blake said: “Everyone is doing ‘plus’ – Apple TV+, Disney+, 7PLUS – which naturally prompted the question: can we do one better? As it turns out, we can… by adding another plus.”
Hamish & Andy Plus + will house all the complimentary projects from the duo that sit outside the main podcast, giving listeners even more from the record-breaking team. The new podcast feed launches with their brand-new game show Quizmas Time with Hamish & Andy.
Hosted by longtime friend and trivia tragic Michael “Magic Mike (Not A Stripper)” Webb, Quizmas Timeinvites listeners to try and beat Hamish & Andy in a quiz the boys play together.
The series also features the classic “phone a friend” lifeline, with cameo assists Australian cricket captain Pat Cummins, radio presenter Tim Lee, Charlie Pickering (via text message), Hamish’s mum, and Andy’s fiancée Rebecca Harding, who demonstrates her dedication by answering from the tarmac seconds before take-off (yes, Quizmas Time really is that important).
Hamish & Andy is Australia’s Number 1 podcast, topping the Australian Podcast Ranker a record 30 times and reaching 881,262 monthly listeners*. In a move that’s very in touch with the common man, Quizmas Time arrives just in time for road trips, backyard cricket breaks, and anyone keen to test their trivia skills.
Andy Lee said: “It’s taken months and months of legal research and policy review, but we’re incredibly relieved to have found a loophole in the government-mandated break so we can release our new podcast feed Hamish & Andy Plus +, with Quizmas Time series for listeners to enjoy over summer.”
Sam Cavanagh, Head of Content – LiSTNR Original Podcasts, said: “Hamish & Andy remain Australia’s most successful podcast creators. Their ability to reinvent formats while keeping their trademark humour at the centre is unmatched, and Hamish & Andy Plus + opens the door to even more possibilities. We’re very excited to kick off this new series with Quizmas Time.”
A new Quizmas Time episode drops every Thursday throughout summer in the Hamish & Andy Plus + feed on LiSTNR with the first episode available to stream on LiSTNR now.
