When the 2020 Melbourne International Comedy Festival was cancelled due to the pandemic, this week’s cover star Nazeem Hussain started to talk to other comedians about the state of the world – and he recorded it. The result was Survivor’s Guide, a podcast aimed at reassuring young comedians (and everyone else) during the then unprecedented lockdown. Now, Hussain is on our screens for a new season of Hughesy, We Have a Problem – once again talking through the big issues, while having a laugh. He talks about his productive year away from the stage and new projects on the horizon. ●

azeem Hussain knows how to take the piss without starting fires.

An observant Muslim who pokes fun at his Sri Lankan family heritage, an overhugging mother and over-achieving sisters (all of whom he loves dearly), Hussain has built a loyal following for his self-deprecating humour.

Self-described as the “breakthrough brown guy” who delivers brown jokes, white jokes and gets tough on topics including racism, stereotypes and terrorism, Hussain manages to make the audience the butt of his comedy while making them laugh.

“Audiences are looking for content that highlights the problems in the world they can’t articulate themselves,” Hussain says. “With comedy you get to cut out the bullshit and say what you feel. Our job is to connect dots where you don’t expect them to be connected. I’m just trying to make sense of the world around us while having a laugh.”

Best known for his sketch comedy hit TV show Orange is the New Brown, the Melbourne comedian is returning as a regular on Channel 10’s comedy panel show Hughesy, We Have a Problem.

Hussain met Dave Hughes more than 10 years ago while filming Channel 31’s Salam Cafe, a comedy show hosted by various Muslim panellists including Waleed Aly, and a second time backstage at the Melbourne Comedy Festival Gala.

“It was certainly a fan-boy moment,” he recalls.

“I have his number in my phone now and still get excited when it lights up and says Dave Hughes is calling.”

Working alongside the funniest man he knows doesn’t really feel like work.

“To do a show like Hughesy you have to trust your comedic instinct,” Hussain says.

“The culture on the show is, if you have something to say, just say it. The other comedians will go with whatever idea is thrown up in the air.

“We all know each other and we’re all good friends. We laugh off air as much as we do on air and the chemistry is great.”

Off camera, you’ll find him scouring media headlines for his next comedic hook and he says COVID has given him plenty of material to pursue.

While 2020 was a year most of us would rather forget, Hussain says he made the most of his time off the road, spending it with his three-year-old son, Eesa.

He released an Audible Original Podcast Rogue Son (retelling his journey back to his ancestral land much against his mother’s wishes) and worked with

Laughing through the big problems producer James Milsom on another podcast titled Survivor’s Guide – with a new season due this year.

And, if that weren’t enough, he wrote a novel aimed at kids aged nine and above – in the vein of Aaron Blabey’s Bad Guys series meets Anh Do’s Weirdos – due for release later this year.

Hussain is certainly riding his peak wave right now and deservedly so, revealing he’s also making a new TV show – his most personal work yet.

“It’s unlike anything I have done before, a narrative comedy that is semi-autobiographical,” Hussain says.

“I frequently feel out of my depth working on the new material, but am constantly reassured by those around me that it’s okay, this is how you’re meant to feel,” Hussain says. “It’s kind of scary but exciting at the same time.”

Hussain returns to the Comedy Republic Theatre in Melbourne on March 3 with stand-up show Party Animal – and if the title riffs on the irony of the year that was, we can’t wait to see what cracking gags he has lined up.

“I haven’t gone bankrupt and I have a roof over my head so I always look at the upside,” he says.

“I was one week into a national tour for the Melbourne Comedy Festival when it got cancelled last year, and had to refund tickets.

“Everyone working on the tour lost employment, some went back overseas due to work visas being defunct, yet I was able to find myself some work,” Hussain says.

“It gave me time to focus on those things I put off due to the demands of live shows. It felt like a nice punctuation in my career; and, to be honest, my

“Our job is to connect dots where you don’t expect them to be connected. I’m just trying to make sense of the world around us while having a laugh.” career hadn’t stopped until the pandemic. It gave me perspective,” Hussain says.

For someone who made a career dismantling the stereotypes of Muslims, Hussain has mixed feelings about racism in the world today.

“In some ways a lot of things have changed but a lot has hardened,” he says, noting the stark contrast between world events such as the 2019 Christchurch mosque shootings and US President Joe Biden’s recent overturning of the country’s Muslim ban.

“There are so many extremes. I still think anyone caught doing or saying racist things should have to wear a T-shirt to apologise.

“They need to stand on a corner and we shame them into being normal,” he laughs. “There has to be a way to change people’s behaviour.”

While Hussain doesn’t have the answers, he is certainly using his comedy to help steer the world into a more tolerant and happier place. ● The pandemic gave Nazeem Hussain perspective

iana Chan prefers eating lunch with a bit of rubbish blowing around, maybe even a glimpse of a rat. Not that the bayside home where she entertains friends every weekend needs cleaning. Rather, for her, Asian cuisine’s “heart and soul” is its street food.

Chan, the 2017 MasterChef winner, is back on our TV screens with a new series of Asia Unplated with Diana Chan, focusing each week on one Asian cuisine. Passionate about them all, her soft spot is the Malaysian street food of her childhood.

Filming the Malaysian episode was disrupted by border closures, requiring a substitute guest chef.

Cue cousin Karen Chan.

“Having a family member on the show was quite nostalgic,” Chan says.

Born in Johor Bahru, in the south of the Malay

“I want to cook beautiful food, but lay it out beautifully and I want people to have the same experience at home as they would in a restaurant.”

Peninsula, Chan, now 34, moved to Kuala Lumpur at 17 for senior high school. There, her eyes and taste buds were opened to the rich variety of local food.

She tries to be unbiased, praising the food of Hong Kong and others discovered through her show.

“I’ve learned so much, especially from a lot of the chefs that come in,” she enthuses. “There were a couple of episodes [in which] I was a bit unsure [about the cuisine], for example, Cambodian and Laotian. I had not been there, although I’ve travelled extensively throughout Asia. I did a lot of research.”

For the March 11 Laotian food episode with chef Jerry Mai, that meant watching “countless videos” on making traditional spicy sai oua sausage.

The show aims to demystify Asian cuisine with something for everyone: classic dishes, how-tos from chefs teaching more complicated restaurant dishes and explaining ingredients, friends and

family offering “simple-to-make, just easy home cooking”.

Chan knows cooking each cuisine’s favourites can be scary to the uninitiated.

“The ones that you find everywhere, but people often don’t make it at home because they think it is too hard, so let’s break it down for them and show them how to do it because it is not that hard.”

Since her MasterChef win Chan has run a sevenmonth pop-up restaurant, Chanteen in Melbourne, has a frozen dumpling range in supermarkets and is launching a homewares range, inspired by styling her dishes during Melbourne’s lockdown.

“I want to cook beautiful food, but lay it out beautifully and I want people to have the same experience at home as they would in a restaurant.” ●

Top tacos Tex-Mex style

CARMEN ZAMMIT

n Australia, we associate Tex-Mex with chain restaurants and overcooked fajitas. In Texas, it's a legitimate cuisine, introduced by Tejanos, the descendants of Mexican people who immigrated to the States. Before July 2020, we didn't have TexMex worth talking about.

That was the date Paul Walcutt and Kady Simkins first rolled up beside the Maribyrnong River in their food truck, Dingo Ate My Taco.

Paul grew up in Austin, where his family ran barbecue restaurants; Kady was raised between California and Alice Springs.

signature is birria quesa tacos. Birria is a soupy Mexican stew from Jalisco, traditionally made with goat. For the birria quesa tacos, the meat is shredded and served in a tortilla, with the broth set aside for dipping.

Dingo Ate My Taco smokes brisket in the truck, separates the fat and broth from the protein, and then fries the tortilla in the fat. It's stuffed with the brisket, onion and coriander and glued together with melty Oaxacan cheese.

There are other tacos, too. The most interesting are the vegan huitlacoche, a Mexican corn fungus, and the chorizo, made with wallaby, wild boar and pork mince. According to Kady, the wallaby is what makes it taste most like a traditional Mexican chorizo.

Life is Co-Ed and so are we from 2023

EDUCATION & INNOVATION

Reimagining St Aloysius College

A

fter a rich history as one of inner Melbourne’s most respected girls’ schools, St Aloysius College will become co-educational from 2023.

In 2019, Mercy Education and Melbourne Archdiocese of Catholic Schools completed a twoyear analysis of the future of Catholic education in inner-city Melbourne. The research highlighted that a significant number of families living in, or close to, the city wanted their children to be part of the Catholic co-education system, but were struggling to find a suitable school.

Acting on this, Mercy Education is now bridging this gap with the support of the teachers, students and families of the St Aloysius College community in North Melbourne. In 2023, the school will open its doors to year 7 boys for the first time after 133 years of operating as a school for girls.

“As principal, I am honoured and excited to be part of this transition. It’s a unique opportunity, and the staff and I are ready to take the next step in our school’s history,” says Mary Farah, who has been principal at St Aloysius College for nine years.

“The inclusion of boys will bring a fresh perspective and new interests. It will help us develop new and improved facilities, increase the diversity of our curriculum programs and bring different ways of thinking.

“When our students go out into the world, the genders are mixed and so the earlier we can start reflecting life, the more all our students will benefit.”

Detailed plans are already under way to smoothly transition St Aloysius College to co-educational status. A new master plan includes refurbishment works at the Curran Street campus, the gymnasium on Boundary Road and the 40-bed residential camp accommodation in Torquay.

“We have a short, medium and long-term implementation strategic vision. In the short term, our focus will be on sharing our vision with families new and old, and preparing our staff and our curriculum programs,” explains Farah.

“At their core, our preparations continue to ensure that our girls are supported in their life journey.

Our core Mercy values of hospitality, service and compassion through the provision of a quality

TIME FOR A CHANGE

education for all young people living in the city remain.”

By 2028, St Aloysius College is expected to accommodate upwards of 800 students who will benefit from the school’s high academic standards and the many partnerships the school enjoys with industries and organisations in and around the city as well as overseas.

“In 2020, we established a new learning program partnership with the International School of Geneva, which we are implementing in our years 7 to 9 curriculum,” explains Farah.

“We are also looking at how we can increase our VCE offering this year and we want to continue teaching students how to be independent in their learning. In addition, we want to harness more opportunities to deliver programs online, based on our remote learning experiences during the pandemic.”

While the pandemic journey has been challenging for schools, St Aloysius College responded swiftly to support staff and students and Farah says the lessons have been valuable.

“Our teachers were prepared and were committed to deliver the best outcomes. Our students embraced the opportunities, they participated well in remote learning and our parents were appreciative of what was achieved,” says Farah.

“That period taught us that we can connect with our community in so many different ways. For example, offering parents virtual information sessions can help them manage their time and make sessions more accessible.”

While there are changes ahead, Farah says the school’s history will be celebrated and respected.

“Our future is being planned to make sure our traditions and who we are is always acknowledged and known to our community and is reflected in our programs, facilities and the way in which we deliver learning to our students,” she says.

“Our community is prepared and ready to take those important steps towards becoming coeducational. I am certain that the journey forward will be a successful one for families, students and for the long-term future of this wonderful school.” ● SARAH MARINOS
