![‘I am endlessly grateful that TikTok didn’t exist when I was a kid’ … Robyn Reynolds.](https://media.guim.co.uk/d0909724f9748fd1b44bef546e7f8c36e36dce80/0_156_4014_2408/1000.jpg)
I am Robyn! I’m a British comedian living in Sydney and my childhood was spent watching those weird, early YouTube videos, like Charlie the Unicorn. I am endlessly grateful that TikTok didn’t exist when I was a kid. Deep on YouTube somewhere, there is a video of 13-year-old Robyn lip-syncing to the Spice Girls that I hope never sees the light of day.
1. My Nonna Fina
My grandma wasn’t Italian, but this nonna still reminds me of her. She is ADORABLE. These are exactly the kind of conversations I used to have with my grandma ❤️
2. Flo & Joan
I love them. One day, I hope to drink too much with Flo & Joan.
3. Bad Dates of Melbourne
I am OBSESSED with Bad Dates of Melbourne. I love all the body positivity from Ali (who runs it) and it also makes me feel better about all the awful dates I’ve been on. I once went on a date with a guy who didn’t know what the Holocaust was. Ever been on a first date where you explain the Holocaust to someone?
4. Adrian Bliss on TikTok
Where does he get all the costumes?
5. Liza Treyger
I think she’s amazing. I have a comedy crush on her.

This Twitter account makes me feel less homesick.
7. Smack the Pony
This was a sketch show that was on way after my bedtime. Most of the jokes went right over my head at the time, but I still loved it.
8. Carol Brown by Flight of the Conchords
Legitimately a banger, and hilarious.
9. Newtown Affirmations
I live in Newtown and this dedicated meme page is so accurate it hurts.
10. Shoes by Liam Kyle Sullivan
This video from the early days of YouTube did the rounds at my school, and I thought it was the funniest thing in THE WORLD. You know what? I’m putting it in the list. Enjoy.
Robyn Reynolds is performing her show Cake at Side Door Theatre in Wollongong on 14 January and at Midsumma festival at The Butterfly Club in Melbourne on 27 & 28 January.
