Dr Jason Leong has had a hectic couple of years, becoming the first comedian from Southeast Asia to have TWO comedy specials on Netflix - Hashtag Blessed (2020) and Ride With Caution (2023). He returns to Australia after putting his name well and truly on the world comedy map after selling out the global tour of his previous show Heaty, which culminated in Leong becoming the first Malaysian comic to appear at the prestigious invite-only Just For Laughs in Montreal.
Since he turned to comedy, Leong has been featured on Comedy Central, and performed in India, Dubai, Singapore, and Hong Kong. He was the first Malaysian to perform at Laugh Factory in Hollywood, as well as the prestigious Comedy Cellar, Caroline’s At Broadway and Gotham Comedy Club in New York City.
