I’d not heard of Nina Conti until I saw her on the Comedy Festival Gala earlier this week. Jolly clever, she is.
Akmal Selah is always good for a laugh.
As is Adam Hills – this bit about language is hilarious.
And I can never go past the twisted Kransky Sisters, from Esk in Queensland (Esk in Queensland)…
The Sound Of Silence (Simon & Garfunkel Cover) – The Kransky Sisters
It All Started With Carbon Monoxide 
The Kransky Sisters are gems, really Australian gems. So clever. Sell your record collection to see them. Well, that might be a bit extreme, but you get my drift.
They’re wonderful aren’t they? I saw them late last year and they are just brilliant. Their comic timing is perfect and their stories are hilarious. Love them, and agree with your sentiments completely!
