Being a translator for porn is hard work.

Jay Yamaki, a British guy living in Japan, escaped the cliche of being an English teacher, only to find himself in much wetter territory by being a pornography translator: a hard job, but someone probably doesn’t have to do it.

Now the phrase “second coming” means something quite different for a guy who resembles Jesus.

Join Jay Yamaki in his first Australian show as he tackles the topics of mistranslated declarations of love, a coworker obsessed with tentacles, and arguing over how to spell lusty onomatopoeia.

Come see the 2025 world Roast Battle Champion in his first Australian show!
