Every day he films for TV until 12.30pm, radio until 7pm, after that it's into the recording studio to voice over Come Dine With Me. Despite working long hours, the people he gets to hang out with along the way make it all worth while.
It was a dream he first realised could become reality after moving to Wellington amid the swirling sensation that was Flight of the Conchords' height of fame. "They were my favourite and I wanted to be just like them, all of a sudden comedian became a job title."
These days you would be hard pressed to get in a car or turn on the telly without encountering Williams' signature monotone in some way, shape or form. But stand-up is still his passion and he tries to slot in a gig at least once a week to test whether or not he's still gotit.
"I like to keep my hand in stand-up, it's a great way to test if you're funny or not."
Somehow he's found time to hit the road on his Going To Places National Tour - more like a North Island jaunt - his brother slash promotor has only booked three performances so far - Rotorua, Napier and Tauranga.
At 27 and living with his parents, it will be a getaway if nothing else.
"It's not much of a national tour, my brother is my manager. He used to be the opening act but he was crap so I fired him. My weekends are the only time off, I really like getting to small town New Zealand."
Stopping off at Napier Little Theatre on Saturday, August 8, he's bringing his best jokes, aka anything that frustrates him, to local audiences.
He describes himself as a performer at the highest level - level 1000 - hates Brian Tamaki and says Sonny Bill Williams blocking him on Twitter is "the worst thing that ever happened".
Although he's a self-confessed "lefty" there's a soft spot for PM John Key whom he calls "a loveable munter", who provides endless fodder for his shows.
While here Williams would love to catch up with Lily from the Big Save Furniture ads, but she won't reply to his emails. There are other plans - partaking in some "sweet treats" from the likes of Mister D in Napier and maybe swinging by Zac Guildford's rugby game.
"I have made a lot of very crappy jokes about Zac, but I think he's a real inspiration getting back on the horse like that. Sonny Bill hates me but Zac Guildford follows me on Twitter which is a pretty big deal."
In 2012 Williams won the Billy T Award, by 2013 he was awarded best comedian by Metro magazine, last year he was crowned TV Guide's funniest person: "awards that I'm desperately holding on to, to justify myself to you," he adds.
