Jon Bennett: Dad (Hates) Jokes
2Hoots Productions
Adelaide, Australia
Jon Bennett’s Dad is a VERY serious and VERY accident prone man.
From the creator of the internationally acclaimed Fire in the Meth Lab comes the story of the strange relationship between a comedian and his extremely conservative father; a man who has died… more than once. “Bennett reminds us that ordinary people lead extraordinary lives. ★★★★★” – The Sunday Mail
