Welcome to the first episode in which Dan hosts the show without Harman while he takes some time off the podcast. We'll still intersperse episodes recorded from the last year so Harman is still around in spirit. This was also the first recorded episode of 2024 and I couldn't think of a better guest to start off the new year of podcasting than comedian, Joe White.

We talk about the four languages Joe speaks, Joe's real name, living on the streets of Sudan, the moment life changed, getting a humanitarian visa to move to Australia, figuring out life in Australia, the tenacity of Joe's Mum, the abundance of resources in Australia, reconciling with an alcoholic father, death threats, working at a bank, finding the comedy in trauma, seeking out online self help advice to find purpose in life, taking a leap into the world of stand up comedy, going to Canada, a terrifying experience in a boarding house, fears of being kidnapped, friends & family, plus a whole lot more! Joe has been on quite the journey!

It was a privilege to listen and share Joe's story.
