Josh Spyro kicks down the door, grabs you by the collar, and drags you straight into the beautiful chaos of his Greek-Australian family dysfunction. And somehow, you'll thank him for it.\n\nThis Queensland firecracker made waves as the 2025 RAW Comedy National Runner-Up, beating out nearly 1,000 other hopefuls across the country. His frenetic, no-filter performance at the Melbourne Town Hall Grand Final didn't just win over the local crowd. It caught the attention of Chortle in the UK, who praised his urgent delivery and knack for capturing a room from word one.\n\nJosh has mastered the art of mining comedy gold from the most unlikely places, particularly the cultural gap between his generation's enthusiasm for therapy and his immigrant father's firm conviction that talking about feelings is what's actually wrong with kids these days. It's a collision of old-world stoicism and new-world vulnerability that produces comedy both brutally honest and hilariously relatable.","jobTitle":"Comedian","image":"https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/68d4b8f315680631ae585a2c/69bcc587487bb8127e5d8376_josh-spyro-headshot.jpg"},{"@type":"Person","@id":"/comedians/247","name":"George Rigden","description":"George’s uniquely chaotic brand of interactive musical comedy has established him as a headline comic worldwide!
