Looking for some good comedians to crash time with
Mike Birbiglia, Kumail Nanjiani, and Patton Oswalt are three recentish faves of mine
Mitch Hedburg is a legend. No one has ever had a comedic style like he had. He was taken from us way too young.
I’m amazed no one has mentioned Susie/Eddie Izzard yet. Their sets are rather old at this point so I shouldn’t be too surprised, but they are all great and I highly recommend them, especially if you are into history at all.
Sheng Wang is hilarious, I think his humor would align well with a lot of people here. He has a special on Netflix worth checking out
Can I get some love for Stewart Lee?
He’s a genius and so am I because I like him.
Randy Feltface
Two of my favorites are Kyle Kinaine and Dave Stone
George Carlin. Start with Class Clown, it’s more approachable than his later stuff but once you get him you can pick up anything.
Norm MacDonald has some great bits
Roy Wood Jr. is hilarious and so is Hannibal Buress, pretty much anything from them is great.
Stavros Halkias has good specials, just don’t go near the crowd work (but that’s pretty much every comic).
Aamer Rahman is great and he just came out from hiatus, check his older stuff first and see if you like it.
Michael Che has good stand up too, even if you know him from SNL and don’t like his stuff there.
I’ve recently started to like the sarcasm of Lisa Eckhart: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXPKN_HfKQg
Jim Jeffries kills me with this bit. First time I saw it, I was crying with laughter…
Representing Scotland here with suggestions of Billy Connolly and Kevin Bridges.
Alex Edelman: Just for Us (2024). It’s well constructed, original, and makes a statement.
I gigged with Alex Edelman, he’s a nice dude.
There was a thread on [email protected] on that topic recently
