“Ballard isn’t here to change hearts and minds” ★★★★ The Age, 2026

“One of the slickest hours of stand-up I’ve ever seen and packing a proper comedy punch.”  Adam Hills

“Fierce and funny…Ballard is a dynamo – a whirling, toe-curling bundle of energy, who is as politically powerful as he is fantastically funny.” ★★★★½ Arts Hub

“A relentless whirl of opinion, silliness, and increasingly bad-taste jokes against those who most deserve it.” ★★★★½ Chortle [UK]

“Absolutely packed with elite gags” ★★★★ The Scotsman [UK]

“To call Ballard a comedian is being kind…..All Ballard has is a potty mouth,  and being from the demographic their ABC loves.” hair stew, Daily Mail commenter
