SEASON 2 EPISODE 6

The day Joe White made it - with a bowl full of apples

Growing up in refugee camps in Sudan, Joe White could never have imagined the incredible success that awaited him. In this episode, Joe sits down with Aditya to share his inspiring story - from playing soccer with migrant kids to selling out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and eventually performing stand-up comedy on stage at the Opera House. In this episode you'll hear Joe's best jokes on Ethiopian pride, the difference between Perth and Melbourne, his adventures in America, and so much more.

If it weren’t for us [Ethiopians], you would be asleep right now.
Joe White, Comedian
