Mad Dogs
People do wild and crazy things. Lots of wild and crazy things. They always have and always will. These people are known as ‘Mad Dogs’. Each week comedians Sean Woodland and Mick Meredith will investigate wild and crazy shit that humans get up to. From the bizarre to the disturbing and the stupid to the courageous. Whether it be criminal, sporting, political, business, celebrity or even Joe Public, the trials and tribulations of these Mad Dogs need to be heard and more importantly, laughed at.
