#85 – 10 Years After The Docco: I Will Not Go Quietly, Mental Health, Worldwide Travel & A Famous Dad With Gough

This week Mike is once again joined by Gough, creator of the documentary “I Will Not Go Quietly” and the production company Beernuts Productions - Gough is a legally blind filmmaker, comedian, author, friend of the show and an all-round fun guy to speak with!

Gough discusses the 10-year anniversary of his documentary “I Will Not Go Quietly” which is about Gough’s blindness, the multitude of issues he experienced after school, his own and other’s mental health & more.
As well as the documentary itself, Gough talks about how & why he made a documentary (or “docco” as the Auzzies call it), what happened after releasing the docco, what’s changed over the last 10 years, what it was like growing up with a famous dad, the importance of travelling and more!

Last week Gough & Mike focused on Gough’s new comedy mockumentary called “How To Treat Women” by discussing satire in comedy and the challenges of making a mockumentary, especially for a blind man! They also discuss comedic timings, actor chemistry, backlash Gough has received from his comedy works (& how he's a “smut-peddler”), the Australian bushfires of late 2019/early 2020 & more!
