How to be funny; tell the truth - Neel Kolhatkar

Neel Kolhatkar is a comedian, content creator, presenter and actor with a powerful audience built from his humble beginnings on his YouTube channel, that now has over 46M views. Well-known for satirical clips such as “Australia in 2 Minutes”, and “Modern Educayshun”, Neel is an incredibly intelligent comedy creator with an innate ability to pare back culture and society across a whole slew of different mediums. Neel is the first to admit that virality was what catapulted him into the ether of Australia’s young comedy class, along with the likes of Josh Wade, Elliot Loney & Troy Kinne. But I believe his incredible knowledge of science, society, new media, and politics is what sets him apart. He is a free speech absolutist, who gives significant nods to Louis C.K., and George Carlin, the type of comedian that pushes the boundaries of acceptability. In my mind, Neel is Australia’s millennial messenger of social truth, and I think society is a whole lot better for people like him, because it allows us to not take life so seriously.
