Louis CK, the only man in the world funny enough to un-cancel himself
Lol true. Though it helps when half of your routine is to joke about how shitty of a person you think you are, and then it turns out that’s true, and people are like “yeah that checks out”
Norm MacDonald
The moth joke, dirty johnny, country of germany, 9/11 compilation, ManGrate, guest appearance with courtney thorne-smith on conan.
RIP.
I didn’t even know he was sick.
He kept it a secret up until his final days
He was the goat
Bill Burr
This fockin guy
James Acaster
He does tickle me good
Taylor Tomlinson
George Carlin
George, Pryor and Hedberg still take up a lot of room in my playlists.
Scrolled too far without seeing Weird Al listed. He may not do stand-up but he’s absolutely a comedian, and he’s been making me laugh consistently for 30 years now.
- James Acaster
- Mitch Hedberg
- Stephen Wright
Love Mitch and Stephen - had never heard of James Acaster but took a chance based on your list and loved him :D thanks for the rec!
Bill Hicks
James Acaster is the correct answer in here - he is hilariously funny and very progressive
“Can you tell us about your flapjack?”
"Started making it. Had a breakdown.
…Bon appetit."
- George Carlin
- Billy Connolly
- Carl Barron
Jim Gaffigan
The first time I saw Beyond the Pale I thought I was gonna die laughing.
Tig Notaro
Louis CK
Mitch Hedberg (RIP)
Tim Minchin (musician but still a comedian )
Oh, man - Tim Minchin’s “Inflatable You” is amazing
His “Thank You God” routine is a weekly play at my house. Someone is always going back and watching it again.
Awesome song. I also love “Prejudice” which is no doubt more controversial here in the States than his native Australia. His dark and transgressive humor takes a special kind of of person to appreciate it. He’s also, IMO, a musical genius, which sometimes gets lost in the distraction of humor.
side note:
I met y’all after a show at my college in the 90’s. Thanks for being good humans and bringing good music to our world.

Rowan Atkinson. I’m unable to watch Mr Bean or Blackadder with a straight face. Everything he does is comedy gold.
Also the one and only Robin Williams, may he rest in peace. Watched his stand up program and spilled my drink multiple times
Brian Regan.
