Shaun Micallef’s Origin Odyssey on SBS and SBS on Demand S1E1 – Adventure and revelry abound as Shaun Micallef travels overseas with popular Australian comedians Aaron Chen, Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli, Lizzy Hoo, Dilruk Jayasinha, Nina Oyama and Arj Barker in Shaun Micallef’s Origin Odyssey.
Shaun’s trademark intellect and wit combines with the comedians’ discovery of parts of their heritage that have remained a mystery to them until now to create a rich series that is entertaining and insightful in equal measure.
Season One, Episode One:
China Having lived in Australia for most of his life, comedian Aaron Chen has little knowledge of the rich legacy he’s inherited from his Chinese-born father. In the first episode, Aaron and Shaun head to China to learn more about Aaron’s father’s fascinating back-story.
As the pair touch down in Shanghai, Aaron is keen to learn about the sacrifices his father Peter made before he moved to Australia in the late 1980s. And it’s a place Aaron’s visited before – more than five but less than ten times!
