Workaholics is a major Comedy Central hit, but where did it all start? Three words: Mail Order Comedy.

Long before Workaholics: Kyle, Anders, Adam and Blake launched a YouTube channel showcasing an assortment of bizzarre sketches, web series and videos. It was this consistent and prolific effort of honing their comedic voices, writing and directing skills which eventually got the attention of big brother Comedy Central.

So we thought we'd curate some of their old old old school videos (seriously, some of these are from 10 years ago) for you die hard fans.

By far their most popular clip has been "Wizards Never Die", but other gems include RELIGIOUS DAD and COOL DADS!

Don't let us stop you exploring the rest of the treasure trove however. The channel also includes some frankly bizarre spins off including a sci fi comedy series about a talking futuristic tank top.

Check out three clips from Mail Order Comedy, a YouTube channel which has led to great things!

WIZARDS NEVER DIE

RELIGIOUS DAD

COOL DADS!

The Workaholics will be in Sydney as part of the Spectrum Now Festival on the 7th and 9th of March. They'll be hosting two nights of stand up comedy with supporting acts including: Matt Okine, Michael Hing, Cyrus Bezyan, Becky Lucas, John Cruckshank, Sam Campbell, Rhys Nicholson, Steen Raskopoulos, Celia Pacquola, Mel Buttle, Damien Power and Susie Youssef.
