As seen on Fisk, Deadloch, Tonightly, Guy Montgomery’s Spelling Bee and Deal Or No Deal (for some reason). As heard on podcast Serious Danger.

After a year away from touring, doing nothing but being very nice and uncontroversial, Australia’s Special Envoy For Comedy Tom Ballard returns in 2026 with a new show packed with heaps of jokes about all the stuff.

You should definitely come along. After all, the world is extremely normal right now and everyone’s getting along really well, so why don’t we all just get together and have a nice laugh about it, you know?

What’s the worst that could happen????

“Absolutely packed with elite gags” ★★★★ The Scotsman [UK]

“To call Ballard a comedian is being kind.....All Ballard has is a potty mouth, and being from the demographic their ABC loves.” hair stew, Daily Mail commenter
