Clay McMath - Ball Don't Lie
A high-energy, basketball-themed comedy hour from Clay McMath—a washed-up athlete turned self-aware performer who still talks trash like he’s in the NBA playoffs, only now it’s at Bunnings.
Blending sharp storytelling, sketch comedy, and reflections on aging, fatherhood, and competitiveness, Clay takes audiences from dunking in China to suburban lawn wars. Through warm-up routines, shady agents, and the turbulence of life after sport, he explores masculinity, ego, and the joy of being humbled.
It’s a confession, a nostalgia trip, and a celebration of those moments when the ego dribbles out of bounds—for anyone who’s chased greatness, pulled a hammy, and told the story like it was a championship run.
