Let's make this birthday one to remember.

35 years old (Born on November 26, 1989)

Happy Birthday, Tom Ballard! From making early mornings bearable on Triple J alongside Alex Dyson to absolutely dominating the comedy stage with style (and sarcasm), your wit has always been sharper than the station's playlist. You've given us countless laughs—some intentional, some probably just you ranting—but they've all become part of why we adore you so much.

Here's hoping this next orbit around the sun is filled with plenty more awkward callers, radio shenanigans that live forever online, and legendary stand-up specials that'll have us laughing 'til it hurts. Keep being unapologetically hilarious because face it—you're not getting older; you're just upgrading your comedic material every year!
