To be the best, you must compete against the best … a challenge triple j’s Lewis Hobba and Michael Hing enthusiastically accept in Australia’s Best Competition Competition.
Plagued by their inability to win anything, the comedy duo decide to flip the process of entering competitions on its head and take on the task of judging them instead.
Hence the competition, competition. You get it. The quest takes the pair across the country and into the most quirky, unexpected parts of Australia.
From street drag racing and roller hockey to Turkish oil wrestling and an Eisteddfod, Hobba & Hing are on a mission to bestow the crown of Australia’s Best Competition to the competition they deem deserving.
It’s a wild ride that includes semi-naked men, a broken limb, as well as personal AND professional embarrassment that will haunt them for years.
The one-hour TV special will culminate in an epic grand finale in front of a live studio audience where the trophy of trophies for Australia’s Best Competition Competition will be bestowed upon the organiser, mayor, or local star of the winning comp.
May the odds be in your favour Australia!
