ONE NIGHT RANT
James Nokise
Politicians, policies, and everyone in between; he’s here to skewer them all.
There’s three things you can count on this election year: Ministerial soundbites that age like milk, policy walk-backs hours after announcements, and James Nokise having hot comedic takes on the chaotic campaigns around the country.
One Night Rant returns in 2026 with a new hour of frenetic, furious, funny stand-up aimed at politicians across the spectrum — no party or policy is safe. Book early: this is the one show where the news cycle does half the research for a night of comedy, catharsis, and fist-shaking, boot-stomping fun.
