BORN FUNNY EP49 | Joe Avati: From Magnum to Microphone - The Hilarious Journey of a Food Scientist Turned Comedian
03 Aug 2024
Joe Avati is one of the most significant and pivotal comedians of his generation, who undoubtedly, is directly responsible for the ethnic comedy circuit around the world today. For the past 30 years his routines about growing up with a culturally diverse background have gained him a cult following around the globe. Growing up in a food-loving household with two kitchens, Joe's life was centered around culinary delights. Despite this culinary background, he initially had dreams of rock stardom, which were gently redirected by his parents towards the more stable path of food science. We delve into Joe's experiences on 'The Footy Show' and his bilingual stand-up routines that catapulted him to fame. His insights into navigating the comedy landscape, the importance of clean humor, and the delicate balance of addressing contemporary issues like woke culture make for some amazing storytelling.
