D.I.N.K


Double Income, No Kids
Irishman Richard Dowling is child-free, asset-poor, and memory-rich. In his comedic storytelling hour, Richard reflects on the years of pressure to conform to societal and familial expectations.

Dowling weaves his anecdotes thoughtfully, taking the audience along on his journey. From the tiresome questions posed by friends and family to adventures at underground wrestling shows, D.I.N.K. is not just a celebration of a life with no kids and disposable income.

It's a light-hearted reminder that happiness comes in many forms -- mainly through gathering stories, weird travels, and Mario Kart. Whether the seeds you sow grow babies or plants, you're sure to be left tickled.

Since his 2020 debut on the Wellington comedy scene, Richard has been delighting audiences with his relaxed style. He performs consistently as an MC, feature act, and headliner. He has amassed titles including: Two-time Roast Battle Champion, Pun Battle Champion, Winner of Roman Empire 3, Wellington Raw Quest Finalist, with nominations for Best Newcomer and Best Up-and-Comer early in his career.
