Joe White is the nice guy of stand-up comedy. Ethiopian born, Perth raised, Joe has quickly developed a loyal following, both in Australia and around the world, due to his great habits of giving before receiving, and customising his comedy sets to his specific audience.

In this School of Hard Knock Knocks podcast episode, you’ll hear how Joe got started in comedy, how he’s built up his Instagram followers to over (twelve and a half thousand) 12.5 thousand, and the charities that he’s supported around the world.

And, if you’d like to give, then get along to one of Joe White’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival (MICF) shows at the Afro Hub in North Carlton, titled ‘Ethiopian and Still Not Hungry Part 2‘, from March 28 to April 22.
