Jo Gowda

Jo Gowda’s new show, Don’t Deport the Fun, is a cheeky and heartfelt comedy hour about surviving immigration, marriage and motherhood – sometimes all in one day. Jo adds her unique perspective to the chaos of being an immigrant in Australia, raising a child who calls her “mate” and turning every cultural clash into comedy. She reminds everyone that laughter needs no permanent residency.

Jo is an Indian-born, Australia-based comedian who has mastered the art of turning cultural confusion into comedy gold. With a sharp tongue and unfiltered perspective, she digs into everything from nosy relatives to marriage disasters, immigration realities and the joy of being misunderstood in two countries at once.
