Folks, I hope you believe me when I say I never started telling jokes about Boko Haram with the intention of making bank. I’m a comedian, not a fool. When you make experimental multi-media ‘alt-comedy’ you’re not making it with money in mind. Especially when you’re based in Perth, Western Australia … the cultural capital of Perth, Western Australia.

Tragically however, I do exist in a human body, I do have to buy meds, and I do want the people who help me bring my art into the world to be at least a little compensated for having to put up with me for more than five minutes at a time.
