Sammy J

Sammy J is an Australian comedian, writer, composer and broadcaster. He's played in Edinburgh, Montreal and London, had a sitcom on Netflix, is one half of the man/puppet comedy duo 'Sammy J & Randy' and currently hosts the breakfast show on ABC Radio Melbourne. After dropping out of his law degree, Sammy J won the Best Newcomer award at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. His albums have received four ARIA nominations for Best Comedy Release, and he gained a national following with his satirical series

Playground Politics. His solo show, Hero Complex, won Best Comedy at the Melbourne Fringe Festival and a Helpmann Award nomination. His weekly satirical sketches on the ABC ran for five years with millions of views online and an AACTA nomination for Best Comedy Program. Still, Sammy's biggest project remains unfinished. In 2008, he started The 50 Year Show, a comedy spectacular that will run every five years until 2058. The show continues in 2028.
