I can’t focus. I don’t know if it’s microplastics, long covid or because I pay $500 a week to live in a mould experiment. 

This year I went to a rally dressed as Boba Fett and was bashed by both police and protestors. 

I formed a parasocial relationship with a doordash chatbot. 

I lost all my crypto trying to buy a mermaid skeleton.

DAN RATH has enough parking ticket debt to cripple a small European country and he has watched his car get cubed by the government. He has been disrespected by his colleagues and is bruised and battered with nothing to lose. His low status means he has heightened cortisol production and is not equipped to take a gentle ribbing. He has a diverse set of interests including prime numbers.

Dan Rath is a multi-award winning comedian with ‘Tropical Depression’ earning the Director’s Choice Award at Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2025, and ‘All Quiet Carriage Along the Inner West Line’ winning the Piece of Wood Award at MICF 2023. Dan was previously nominated for the Best Newcomer Award at MICF 2019 for his debut show ‘Bubble Bath’.  

Dan’s special ‘I’m Not Doing Well Folks’ was released by 800 Pound Gorilla in March 2024, and has amassed over 100k views on YouTube to date.
