Event description

Voted best new show of the 2021 Festival Season by the Melbourne Comic's Lounge

Presented by Jordan Shanks

Ever since I learned there was a propaganda model created in the early 1900s that filters all media so the public only sees what the elite want them to see I have been obsessively tracking its ramifications. It's truly horrific. There is no democracy. It's all a lie... can I have some money?

Jordan Shanks is a controversial political satirist and podcast creator. He has been threatened with being sued by Clive Palmer and John Barilaro, but he refuses to be silenced. In 2021, hit pieces by main stream media have only strengthened his resolve to call out political corruption and media bias.

He has produced over 660 no-holds-barred videos for his YouTube channel, has over half a million followers on social media and his videos have been viewed over 130 million times.

Jordan hopes he will foster some sort of interest in socio-political discourse, maybe even stir positive change, but most people keep asking him to dress up as a high school kid he once knew. Sometimes he complies.

Praise for Jordan

“A character-actor that rivals Daniel Day Lewis...Jordan somehow makes the audience give a sh*t about politics again"...The Upside News

"Being in a packed house of people pi**ing themselves – sometimes in anger – there was a palpable sense that this feeling can be forged into something powerful. Like, I don’t know, a metaphoric hammer, for example”…Daily Review
