Josh Johnson is one of my favourite current comedians.

Releases fairly recent clips from shows on his YT channel.

His older stuff isn't as good, it's more traditional stand up show style while his recent stuff is more conversational.

@Tim How the fuck are any of those pricks described as "Comedians" ?
Every single thing I've seen from any of the names which I've somehow ascribed to "Cum Town" over time... just dumb stoners making dumb not-even-jokes. 2020s version of Seinfeld... but even worse.
Lucky pricks... just hit the zeitgeist of a certain movement/technology I guess... got famous and rich. But there's no fucking way I'd be going out of my way to listen to them. I gave that video 5 minutes, one final shot - after taste-testing some of the other related shit posted here - to see if I was wrong... never again.
A bunch of douche-bags who spend more time laughing at each others schtick than actually attempting genuine humour. I understand the concept - but it doesn't translate well to anybody outside of the "inside-joke inner-circle".

I was at this show - it was in Sydney 2 weeks ago. He’s fucking great.

There's a couple of crackers in here.

@Bones Those two are a great team. Che's stand up specials are pretty good too.

@Bones They're the funniest bit of SNL. Some of the jokes Che writes for Colin would have a comedian cancelled if he wrote them for himself.

I've never watched an entire episode of SNL, just clips of the skits and the comps of those two,

I feel a bit sorry for Colin as it's much harder for him to write jokes for Che. Well not that sorry, he gets to shag Scarlett Johansen frequently.

"Cancelled" seems a bit of an understatement.

Dana Carvey was underrated. He was brilliant at parodying conservative commentators like George Will and John McLaughlin:

And credit to McLaughlin for going on SNL. The McLaughlin Group was the only panel show that was any good.
