Tarkan Gül

Tarkan Gül is a German-born stand-up comedian with Turkish roots who moved to Malta to chase a professional basketball career. When people told him Malta isn’t good at basketball, he said, “Exactly, thats why im trying it here.”

His comedy dives into basketball obsession, failed relationships, growing up between cultures, and his former life as a psychiatric nurse—which explains a lot. With unpredictable energy and zero warning signs, you never know what’s coming next.

Some call him “the schizophrenic comedian.” Others say “the comedian who worked with schizophrenics.” Both can be true simultaneously.
