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.
If you want to understand how extraordinary people think, create, survive and succeed in one of the most unforgiving industries in the world, or if you simply love creativity, chaos and a proper laugh, you have found your new favourite show.
Join Magnus and his guests on their journey to greatness.

Tahir Accidentally Became a “Dealer” After Fat Pizza and How Politically Incorrect Housos Was | Ep 20
TAHIR is an award winning, internationally acclaimed stand up comedian with a career spanning over two decades. He has co created and starred in the hit sitcoms StreetSmart and Here Come The Habibs, and is a Logie winning actor best known for Fat Pizza, Housos and three feature films. Tahir is one of Australia’s most beloved live performers.
In this episode, TAHIR brings that same energy to Onwards to Victory. We talk about why he only says yes to projects that look like fun, how being a “yes man to life” has shaped his career, and why he’s one of the only comedians who went on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! for reasons that weren’t tax related.
He shares hilarious stories from Fat Pizza and Housos, how politically incorrect those shows were, and why no network today would ever touch them. We dive into his start as a drama teacher, how he messes with latecomers to his shows, and how he accidentally became a “dealer” in real life after playing one on TV.
TAHIR also opens up about working hard, adapting to stay relevant in comedy, and why he’ll never have a “real job.” He even drops an exclusive that fans hate to find out. Packed with wisdom, wild stories and pure heart, including Magnus convincing him to swap clothes mid show despite his very clear no.
