[3] In April 2020, Cashman began hosting The Good Stuff podcast, alongside fellow comic Sam Taunton. [7].
In 2022, Cashman began presenting a regular segment on Triple J. [3] Also in 2022, Cashman began the show "All Comedians Are Beautiful" (ACAB) with his The Good Stuff co-host Sam Taunton. [8] This weekly performance in the Sydney suburb of Chippendale began as a trial run for the comics' individual shows, and then developed into the duo compéring for a variety of other comedians. [8] Cashman's shows include Good (2018), [9] XYZ (2019) [10] and Graphs (2022). [11]
In February 2023, Taskmaster Australia began airing on Network 10, with Cashman in the role of the Taskmaster's assistant. [4]
During Sydney's second lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic, Cashman began making videos on the popular social media app TikTok, with his 'landlord reference saga' gaining particular traction. [5] In these videos, Cashman asked a prospective landlord for a reference written by a previous tenant, and shared their response. [12] In addition to garnering millions of views, [13] these videos inspired ACT politician Michael Pettersson to introduce a motion to the ACT Legislative Assembly which would allow renters to ask for references from prospective landlords. [14]
This media spectacle became the basis for his show Graphs, which was later recorded and released in 2024 as Pests. [15]
