Mitch Dale is one of Australia’s funniest and most relatable creators. He’s a bloke who can turn a trip to the grocery store, a run-in with Aussie wildlife, or even a day in the outback into comedy gold. Hailing from Brisbane, he’s built a huge following with his spot-on sketches about what it’s really like living in Australia, from the ocean to the bush, and everything in between.
With over 200,000 followers across Instagram and TikTok, and more than 10 million likes, Mitch has become one of the country’s most beloved online voices, known for his sharp, chaotic, and completely unfiltered style — including his brutally honest takes on pokies, self-exclusion, and the funny side of everyday struggles.
In this episode, he opens up about his rise to internet fame, the wild inspiration behind his sketches, and the moments that made him realise that every joke (no matter how strange) can hit.
