Mel Bracewell: ADHD, Swearing at the Aussie PM & Behind the Scenes of 7 Days

Mel Bracewell is one of New Zealand’s funniest comedy exports — and in this episode of Between Two Beers, she opens up in a way you’ve never seen before.

We dive into her rise from internet cult figure to TV star, the pressure of performing in Australia vs NZ, and the mental health journey that’s shaped her along the way.

From swearing in front of the Australian Prime Minister, to her viral Seven Days moment (“Classic Kiwi Taste”), to her ADHD diagnosis and life on anti-depressants — this is a funny, honest, and deeply relatable chat with one of the country’s brightest comedic minds.

We also cover the chaos of working in radio, her famous family, the weight of imposter syndrome, and why she once flew across the country with a rabbit.

🎭 Whether you’ve followed her since Tumblr days or know her from Have You Been Paying Attention? — there’s something here for you.
