  • Summary

  • his week on Born Funny, we sit down with the hilarious and multi-talented Michelle Brasier, who shares her journey from a tall, awkward kid in Wagga Wagga to one of Australia’s most dynamic performers. Michelle spills on her theatre roots, her love of improv, and how she uses songwriting to sneak in jokes she can’t make up on the fly.

    We dive into her knack for making people laugh, even when life gets tough—like the time a house fire led to her belting out “Sex on Fire” for weeks afterward. She opens up about loss, resilience, and how tragedy inspired her comedy. Plus, Michelle gives us a peek behind the scenes of Thank God You’re Here and her current musical, Flat Earthers, where her ADHD and improvisation skills shine.

    Whether it’s tales of her Contiki tour, her early obsession with proving herself, or her surreal encounters with Tim Minchin, Michelle brings unfiltered humor and heart.

    Tune in for laughs, chaos, and a reminder to always keep a jar of piss nearby—metaphorically speaking.
