Scott Dooley

is an Australian comedian and writer based in New York. As a comedian, he has toured the world, released a critically acclaimed stand-up special, and performed alongside the world’s biggest comics. As a person and a friend, he is renowned for his principles and always returning borrowed items in the condition he received them. For instance, if Scott were to borrow a vacuum cleaner and he broke the thing that makes the cord come back when you press the button, he’d happily fix it or even replace the already very old machine. However, if he was to be lent an already faulty unit he wouldn’t then pay for the repair. Why would he? Is he an idiot? No, he’s a regular contributor to the New Yorker as well as podcasts and television shows around the globe.
