Jack Knight & Nick Capper | Live in Brisbane | Good Chat Comedy Club
Jan 4, 2025 (UTC+10)
Terrace
Nick Capper is a cult favourite on the Australian comedy circuit, having toured across the country, and has cemented himself as a regular in the festival scene. Self described as Australia’s favourite agricultural comedian, Nick’s oddball antics and off-kilter musings make him stand out from the pack, as he blends his country farm upbringing with absurd and surreal comic delivery. ‘A master of the unexpected, Nick Capper’s punchlines sneak up on you every time.’ - Beat Magazine You ever seen a man’s brain backfire like a Datsun 120Y on stage? Because that’s what Jack Knight’s comedy is; a deranged soup-drinking maniac in the middle of a perpetual mental hoo-roo. Having supported the likes of Mel Buttle, Sam Campbell, and Dan Rath, Jack Knight has cemented himself early into cult comedian status, and is admired amongst his peers as one of Australian comedy’s most unique emerging voices. Catch him on stage before he drives a Ford Falcon into the Barrier Reef and is never seen again.

Michael Shafar | Inappropriate | Good Chat Comedy Club
Jan 24, 2025 (UTC+10)
Terrace
You may know Michael Shafar from his appearances on TV and radio. In which case, you're probably very old because traditional media is dead and, soon, you will be too. It's more likely that you know him from the Internet, where he has over 100,000 followers and has racked up 100+ million views. He's also gotten three death threats, so you know he's funny. Michael will be expressing opinions on colonialism, assassinations, homophobia, Israel, paedophiles, terrorism and Pauline Hanson. He will also advocate for Indigenous Australians to commit acts of terror. Many of these topics would be considered inappropriate to raise at a family dinner or on a first date. But, in the context of a comedy show, they're actually quite funny. Shafar circumnavigates the line between edgy and offensive with beautiful finesse. ★★★★½ The Age He’s a brand of comedian that is getting rarer and rarer to come by these days, and if you’re among those who fear comedy has gotten too politically correct, this show will put those fears to rest. ★★★★ TimeOut
