The Aussie comedy trio, of brothers JOE and CARLO SALANITRI and their best mate ANDREW MANFRE, discuss their hypothetical last day on Earth…

How do you want to leave this world?
Joe: As an Elvis fan I always try to mimic my idol. So, it looks like I have to go out taking a crap on the toilet.

Do you have any deathbed confessions?
Carlo:
There’s 20 grand buried next to the fig tree in my backyard. Don’t judge me, I’m a wog.

What’s your last meal?
Andrew:
My last meal might look something like this… a bowl of spaghetti bolognese, half a dozen of mum’s schnitzels, a litre of coke and two Nexium.

What do you know now that you didn’t at 18?
Carlo:
Fourteen tequila shots in one night hurts.

To whom on Earth do you owe an apology?
Joe:
I want to apologise to every beautician that’s ever waxed my back for the last 27 years.

What are your friends saying over your casket?
Andrew:
I’m so devastated – he still owes me 43 dollars.

What or who would you like to be reincarnated as?
Carlo:
A pair of J-Lo’s underwear.

What’s the dumbest thing you ever did on Earth?
Andrew:
Wasting my life with Joe and Carlo.

What’s on your tombstone?
Joe: Here lies a man who wasted his life with Andrew and Carlo.

Any regrets?
Carlo: Wasting my life with Joe and Andrew.

What is your proudest accomplishment?
All:
As a group we are very proud of being the first ever comedians to be putting on three consecutive Rod Laver Arena shows early next year, but the tax department only knows about one, so don’t tell anyone.

What can audiences expect from Sooshi Mango’s upcoming shows?
All: They can expect to go home having seen the 45th best show they’ve ever seen in their lives and $90 less in their pockets. But seriously, this is the best production we’ve ever put together and we’ve put our hearts and souls into this show to make it the funniest show it can possibly be – and God knows we all need a laugh in these strange times.

Got any last words?
All:
Who do we invoice for this? ■
