About

He loves making jokes about all the all the awkward social encounters he experienced during his childhood, whilst attempting to develop his social skills and better understand the neurotypical world.

In 2022, BJ released his debut single called “I’m Autistic (I Don’t Get Social Cues)”. In 2023, his song was streamed on Spotify in 136 different countries after it began to get a lot of attention on TikTok.

His proudest comedy moments to date include qualifying for the Queensland State Grand Final of RAW Comedy in 2020 and hosting a comedy show in Lismore, NSW which featured Aussie comedy legend Steady Eddy as the headliner.

BJ also has a reality dating show on YouTube called “Third-Wheeling With BJ” where he organises for a random guy and a girl to go on a date and acts as their wingman, offering his most outrageous relationship advice from an autistic perspective. BJ has also posted reaction videos on YouTube where he reviews the autism themed dating show “Love On The Spectrum”.
