Jon Bennett: AMERICAN'T
After nomadically touring the world for the last 10 years, Renowned Australian comedic storyteller, Jon Bennett (Fire in the Meth Lab) finally has a home: The US of A.
Or does he?
COVID forced him back to his childhood home in the outback of Australia with his conservative, religious family for the next year and a half.
After jumping through every hoop imaginable, Jon was finally able to leave Australia and come to the USA. Only to be arrested at the airport upon landing. This is THAT story.
