Amna Bee finds Aussie bogan culture very comforting

Amna Bee is a Pakistani-Canadian-Australian stand-up comedian and writer who feels at home wherever she goes. Her solo comedy show has received rave reviews across Australia. We listen to some of her brilliant jokes, including one about why she hates new age Yoga studios. She talks to Aditya about the similarities between Australia and Pakistan, growing up with abusive humour, landing in Canada a day after the 9/11 attacks, supporting the Pakistan Cricket team and much more.

When someone asks me where I am from, I am quite specific. I say I am from the northern part of Pakistan; I am a tribal Pashtun, which is confusing enough to stop the conversation.
