Media Munchies: Paul Ego

When he’s not lending his voice to Pak ‘n Save’s Stickman, Paul Ego is mocking Jeremy Corbett on 7 Days or performing on the stand-up circuit across the country. And when not entertaining the masses with his brand of dry and often self-deprecating humour, Ego likes to engage in some very risqué use of the fax machine.

What media do you wake up to? 

No media before 10am is my rule. The only update I want first thing in the morning is my son telling me he’s bringing my coffee in damn sharpish.

What TV shows are you watching at the moment? And how are you watching them?

Peaky Blinders on Netflix with the amazing Sam Neill.

What music are you listening to at the moment? And how are you listening to it?

Been revisiting two of my favourite albums recently: ‘Bill Withers – Live at Carnegie Hall’ and ‘Elbow – Seldom Seen Kid – Live at Abbey Road Studios’.

What’s your favoured social media platform? Is it a blessing or a curse? 

Sok-Med, as I like to call it, is like baptising your child with witches’ blood, it’s a cursed blessing. My favoured Sok-Med though is the platform for drunks, ‘Off Your Face Book’.

I’m a big fan of German cars and dub music so I like [email protected].
