Hook Cooks

Hook Cooks

Shane Vincent, Conor Woods, Jack McColl, Mitch Stevenson

Dubbed 'The spiritual successor to Will it Blend?' by some, and 'Definitely a podcast' by others, the Hook Cooks take a random prompt every episode and blind-bake it into a story, a world, an adventure, and a whole lot of fun. Each meal is paired with a side-salad and plated up in a dizzying and dramatic radio-play. Send us your prompts, listen in, and steal as many ideas as you like!

Check it out yourself today, and hey, maybe chuck us a sweet nom next year, we'll surely be back, BIGger and better!

Lean back, relax your mind, exhale deeply, close both eyes, listen to the sounds of your body, feel the tension in your muscles, now close your other eye (the third one), feel yourself slipp- wait, do you still have *another* eye open? How are you still able to see me? Your forehead real estate is wild.

Winter's chill got you feeling a little blue? Are the kids not coming to your concerts as often as they used to? Why not join us at the dive bar on the dark side of the moon for a live play of the newest episode of Hook Cooks! This one comes served with an appetiser: It is important for you to know that George Lucas named the music in Star Wars 'Jizz'. That is not a joke.

Do you hear that dripping? The constant droplets of water, falling square into the centre of your mind, endlessly? Even the largest mountains will eventually be worn down into dust by the ever-ongoing trickle of water. Now, what if that dripping were more drool like, and brackish? What if it were dripping from between two rows of teeth, and a pair of pale lips spread wide into a manic grin? Kinda gross, I'd imagine. But hey, at least they're having fun.
