Danny O Flannagin Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Really want to watch more stand up comedy but find a lot of comedians to be fairly uninteresting. Post your favorites, and bonus points if you attach a youtube video of good bits or full length specials. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autopilot Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Bill Burr & Joe Rogan are favorites of mine. They both put out new specials in the last few weeks that are particularly great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trying to be less rude Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 i liked chelsea peretti's new special, which is on netflix. bill burr's newest special i found to be weak compared to his prior two or three. here's jim jefferies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSD9tiqgzdo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Mughnus Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Definitely Louis CK and Doug Stanhope. If you have netflix most of their specials are on there actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest murphythecat8 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) ron white is very not popular, but I love him.

trying to be less rude Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) yeah hedberg is great. been checking out sam kinison lately. never knew bill hicks took so much of his style from him. some growls and cadences are just lifted from him, even. clearly hicks was very inspired by kinison. he did refine and expand on the approach, and portrayed his own character, of course. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJ5-IjxuHxI nobody mentioned george carlin yet? too obvious? if you're not familiar with him, go for his older stuff, of which there is a lot. his last 2 or 3 specials were a little weak, relatively, imo.

Adieu Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 All of the above, plus, don't completely vouch for, but do enjoy them on the Joe Rogan Experience: Ari Shaffir, Duncan Trussell, Joey Diaz. Saw Duncan and Ari at a show, and it was quality. They aren't legend level like Louis C.K., and Bill Burr though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud capture Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Here's a 24/7 shoutcast stream that plays stand-up bits. Listening to stand-up while going to sleep, is it strange? It's a nice change of pace from positive ambient. Sometimes you will hear repeats but there's lots of old jems. Sometimes I hear early Richard Pryor, Seinfeld, Carlin, etc. And lots of people I've never heard of and end up looking up on youtube. I use winamp, and usually just search the shoutcast directory for standup or comedy, here's one: http://108.61.73.115:8026 You can just open the url in winamp or whichever media player.

joshuatxuk Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Everyone I thought of immediately has already been mentioned, except David Cross. For all his cynical snarky anger he's a really nice guy. He literally bumped into me and my wife at a free SXSW show and was like super apologetic and polite. I like these folks though too: http://youtu.be/l1Sa9hXA4mo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braintree Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Pretty much everything George Carlin ever did was hilarious. http://youtu.be/fwMukKqx-Os Jimmy Carr is pretty good too. http://youtu.be/e6g3RmfTD4s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braintree Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 He had a handful of those bits, but they were far from dominating the entirety of his material... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
