Mikey Mileos (born December 6, 1980) is a stand up comedian and comedy writer from Sydney, Australia.

In April 2009, Mileos was a national finalist in Triple J radio's Raw Comedy competition, a nationally televised event. Since then he has played at almost every major comedy club in Australia. In 2010 he was selected to perform along-side a slew of international comedy veterans in the Sydney Comedy Festival's Cracker Night gala,[1] a rare feat considering he did not actually have a show in the festival.

His unique comedic style combines observational comedy in an almost one-liner fashion, incorporating political and philosophical ideas and mixing them with his own brand of silliness.

As a comedy writer Mileos worked on the Australian hit television show Good News Week.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] Mileos has also worked as a free lance comedy writer for Australian lads magazine Zoo Weekly, but insists that it was only for the money.
