Tom Gleeson has had a pretty good run on Hard Chat, The Weekly’s gladiatorial interview segment, ’cause the only real opponent he’s ever faced was Sophie Monk. (Seriously.)
That changed last night, when old mate Briggs took the host’s chair for the very first edition of Black Chat.
We’ll spare you the punchlines here; all you need to know going in is that even Gleeson’s Volvo found itself at the centre of a pretty hefty dig.
It’s time to give @nonstoptom a taste of his own medicine
And @BriggsGE is the man to do it.It’s #BLACKCHAT!#TheWeekly w/ @charliepick pic.twitter.com/mzX6Pj7J5A

As we said, this definitely isn’t the first time Briggs has crafted some weapons-grade funny from modern Indigenous issues for The Weekly, and we’re still thinking about his mock Labor ad to this day.
