Comedian Ainslie with a large set of coloured novelty dumbells, lifted with one arm, above her head with her other hand pointing up looking smugly.

  • Comedy
  • Entertainment

Only 1% of comedians make it in the Australian industry so what happens to the other 99%?
Your favourite smiling assassin, Ainslie Rose, transforms them into elite athletes.

With the 2032 Brisbane Olympic Games just around the corner, it's time for four comedians to make their career change from struggling comics to highly valued athletes.

Watch and learn as Ainslie turns strong punch lines into strong punches, comedic timing into record times and turn comedy gold into gold medals.

It's Taskmaster meets Gladiator.
