Onwards To Victory
Welcome to Onwards To Victory, the show where the world’s most fascinating performers lift the velvet curtain and reveal what really happens behind the spotlight.
Hosted by Magnus Danger Magnus, a multi award winning international showman with more than 25 years performing at the biggest theatres and arts festivals across the globe, this is your backstage pass into the minds of the most creative, chaotic and passion driven humans on the planet.
Every episode, Magnus sits down with the performers who have survived it, shaped it and kept it alive. The drag icons, circus legends, comedians, freak show artists, burlesque royalty and the new generation of wild creative geniuses who are reshaping live entertainment.
This is the real conversation, not the PR version.
The stories nobody tells.
The failures nobody admits.
The resilience, the heartbreak, the obsession and the victories that define a life in showbiz.

How Growing Up in a Cult Shapes My Stand-Up, ADHD-Fuelled Comedy & the Psychology Behind It | EP 12
Colin Ebsworth is a Perth-based stand up who literally grew up in the Unification Church, often called the Moonies, and he’s turned that wild white-suit childhood into a multiple smash-hit, sold-out comedy shows. In this episode he pulls back the curtain on the psychology of comedy, sharing incredible insights into why we laugh, how belief shapes every punchline and what happens when your brain kicks into full ADHD turbo mode. It’s packed with incredible stories from his days in the cult and beyond, and his life is as fascinating as he is hilarious. You’ll never look at comedy or cults the same way again. Strap in, this is an amazing episode!
