This former journalist for the Australian Financial Review couldn't leave the political commentary in the office when he left journalism to pursue a career in stand-up comedy. Then again, he couldn't leave his love-hate relationship with prime time television in the living room either.

Themes ranging from the ills of the Howard government to the shortcomings of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire permeate Anderson's material and demonstrate his commitment to being a well-informed comic. It's research that pays off with big laughs from the audience, as evidenced by his appearances on Good News Week. Maybe he needs to be put to the test. Maybe a heckler at the University of Canberra needs to throw him a topic from leftfield. I dare you. No, I double dare you.
