He regularly performs standup comedy at Comedy Lounge. White uses his sharp wit and legal expertise to deliver \"anti-establishment and provocative\" comedy that challenges audiences' worldviews. White believes \"comedy is the most pure form of democracy\" because laughter is an involuntary response that can't be controlled. He is unafraid to tackle controversial topics head-on, using humour to expose hypocrisy and challenge the status quo. His fearless approach has earned him both praise and criticism, solidifying his position as one of the most exciting and \"dangerous\" voices in Australian comedy. White is a vocal critic of censorship and the increasing restrictions on free speech, believing that these limitations are a threat to the art of comedy. He argues that \"the walls of censorship are closing in,\" and that comedians have a responsibility to push back against these restrictions. White sees comedy as a vital form of social and cultural mediation, arguing that it can \"join dots, address contradictions, hypocrisies,\" and even \"alter people's reality.\" His outspoken views on issues like the COVID-19 pandemic and government overreach have made him a target of criticism, with some accusing him of having \"fascist undertones.\" He argues that his critics are \"angered and amused at the same time\" by his material and that the \"coexistence of those emotions\" is something they struggle to deal with. White has been \"emphatically vindicated\" in his views on the pandemic, as the information that was censored at the time has since come to light. He feels that comedians played a \"pivotal\" role in the pandemic, particularly those who \"mocked people who had different views.\" Be sure to Corey White at an upcoming comedy show at Comedy Lounge in Perth Western Australia, where he'll deliver a thought-provoking and hilarious set that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew.","jobTitle":"mc"},{"@type":"Person","@id":"/comedians/192","name":"Tyson Popplestone","description":"Tyson Popplestone is a Melbourne-based stand-up comedian known for his unique storytelling and relatable comedy style.
