Sharks, snakes, or crocodiles. If you think these scare this Asian man, you are wrong. Police, ATO, Chinese secret agents. If you think these scare this Asian man, you are...partly right. But these are not my biggest fears, because my biggest fear is... Let's find out in this show.
Sean Xi Diao was born in China and moved to Australia in 2013. He has been performing stand-up comedy for many years and currently resides in Melbourne. His unique dry humour and silly comedy style have endeared him to people all over the world. Watching Sean on stage is like watching Seinfeld on Netflix with a terrible internet connection because Sean speaks slowly and his English is a bit broken, but the jokes are so silly that you can't switch to other shows. In this comedy show, Sean explores various humorous topics, including his unfortunate Chinese name, light teasing of the Australian language, applying for a Chinese visa, phone apps, and of course, his biggest fear in Australia.
Sean has appeared on Australian TV channels such as ABC, SBS, and local radio programs like RRR. His comedy subjects include Chinese/Australian culture, specific Chinese politics that won't land him in a Chinese jail, self-deprecating humour, everyday life, gender differences, and so on.
"His observations of the irregularities and paradoxes in human nature funny and endearing." —WeekendNote
