You'd recognise Jim Jefferies from television's The 1% Club or perhaps his views on gun laws in America which went viral, but the often outspoken and controversial comedian is about to bring the laughs around Australia with his national Give 'Em What They Want stand-up comedy show.

The Australian's ability to tackle daring topics with intelligence and humour has earned him a huge global following as well as critical acclaim, and you can see him live in August 2024 - tickets go on sale Friday May 3.
The boundary-pushing TV host, podcaster and writer is considered one of the most popular, provocative and respected comedians of our generation. He has performed at festivals in Edinburgh, Melbourne, Reading, Leeds and Glastonbury, and was named Stand-Up Comedian of the Year at Montreal's Just for Laughs Festival in 2019.
Who can forget his BARE stand-up series on Netflix in 2014 when he talked about gun ownership - in America - and made audiences laugh, boo ... and perhaps even think?
In 2017 he launched, and hosted, a late-night satirical program for Comedy Central, The Jim Jefferies Show, which ran for three years.
He currently hosts popular game show The 1% Club and podcast I Don't Know About That.
Jefferies has nine Netflix comedy specials to his name including 2017's Freedumb, 2018's brutally hilarious This Is Me Now and 2020's Intolerant.
The star will be touring with special guest Mickey D, and visit Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Melbourne, Newcastle, Wollongong, Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra and Townsville.
