Looking for some good comedians to crash time with
Nate Bargatze’s earlier stuff.
I find his later stuff better, YMMV.
The latest I’ve seen was the one where he’s on a round stage like Elvis’ Christmas Special, I think it was 2022. My wife and I felt that he had become out of touch. He is visibly richer, and healthier, and his jokes are less relatable.
I’m surprised I received two downvotes for recommending him. He’s about as vanilla as a comedian can get imo.
For me he’s tightened up his material and polished the delivery. But I agree with you, he’s less of a common guy and in danger of losing touch.
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
Kill Tony, sometimes the jokes are good and the interviews can be good when they aren’t.
Anthony Jeselnek, if you like dark humor.
Older Amy Schumer, if you like dark humor, newer Amy Schumer if you have a liberal arts sense of humor.
Kam Patterson, if you like black humor, rocks, and hood shit
Randy Feltface, if you like puppet humor and Australian accents.
Jeff Dunham, if you like puppet humor and stereotypes.
Casey Rocket, if you like stupid irreverent brilliant insanity.
Bo Burnham, if you like brilliant poignant commentary of a jester mocking himself and society.
Theo Von, if you like redneck humor.
Ron White, if you like alcoholic redneck humor.

Josh Johnson has been coming up
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.
What are some of your current favorites?
There was a thread on [email protected] on that topic recently
Jim Jeffries kills me with this bit. First time I saw it, I was crying with laughter…
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.
Mike Birbiglia, Kumail Nanjiani, and Patton Oswalt are three recentish faves of mine
Two of my favorites are Kyle Kinaine and Dave Stone
Norm MacDonald has some great bits
The randomness of python packaging attempts. Recommend reading the source code of Chimera Linux. How to build a distro and write everything as a script.
And any recent dramas bad reviews on imdb. Forget about watching the videos, the reviews are priceless
