He Huang

My guest this month is Chinese-Australian Comedian He Huang. He went viral after she appeared on Australia’s Got Talent in 2022. Her deadpan delivery and self-deprecating jokes based on her Chinese culture made her go viral. I caught up with He at the Woodford Folk Festival in December 2024 where she was performing. In this episode, we chat about He's new show, 'White man's Burden', the crap that minority comedians have to deal with, and He's various aliases. We also talk about how policy and law isn't that different from comedy, what it was like growing up in China, and how Chinese people can be just as bogan and racist as Aussies.

Watch He Huang on Australia's Got Talent.
