I am so bloody chuffed to say The Next Big Thing has been shortlisted for the #RusselPrize for Humour Writing by the @statelibrarynsw For once, it is an honour to just be nominated. There are so few comedy writing awards in this country and it’s my goal to lose them all. Good luck to all the very funny legends nominated here and thank you to all the judges. Also much love to @panterapress for bringing this to life. Also I’ve been asked to use the hashtag #HumourWriting which I can’t say I love but I do understand that’s the category of the award.

Australia's federal election campaign is officially happening, and we've already been running down the checklist of media coverage prerequisites: overwrought visual metaphors, misleading charts and the culture wars can't help but pop up too. James Colley looks back at the first week of the campaign in this week's instalment of Surviving the Election with James Colley #election2025 #news #auspol

We’re excited to announce that our film ‘Death Do Us Part’ has been shortlisted for Tropfest. This is great news that helps justify the cost of a coffin. Well done, team.

So pumped to be working alongside such an epic team for our original and very exciting second kids series. The gorge and brilliant Miranda Tapsell, powerhouse science communicator Astro Kirsten and comedy writing legend James Colley. We’re building something really special together and can’t wait to take it further with upcoming meetings here and at @kidscreen . For now a team pic feat. the currently pixel-protected project 😎💫

STATEMENT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: After much soul-searching, consultation and several rounds of mediation, representatives for James Colley have today announced that he has regretfully agreed to mark another year of marriage with Miranda Tapsell and engage in a further year of marriage, to commence immediately, and continue until this date next year. This agreement, in the face of Ms Tapsell’s many well-publicised scandals, is considered to be a great act of charity and kindness on behalf of Mr Colley. “Mr Colley believes in second chances,” A spokesperson representing James Colley said earlier today. “He thinks that everyone can change. Ms Tapsell is no exception.” Ms Tapsell could not be reached for comment and is assumed to be out celebrating the unlikely coup of keeping such a wonderful partner under contract for another season. It can be assumed that she said something along the lines of “I am so lucky. Happy anniversary, husband. I am not at all mad about this post.” Mr Colley requests privacy during this difficult time.

We love the Snoo, but also, we fear the Snoo. So fun to chat with a MAN, and not just a man but the dad of a 12 day old baby (sorry Miranda for making your husband do a pod), TV writer and lovely mate @jamcolley . Listen wherever you get your pods, link in bio. #babyshoes #parenting #momlife #parentingpodcast #comedy #mom #dad #dadjokes #snoo
