My Favorite Stand Up Comedians
A collection of my favorite stand-up comedians, in alphabetical order, with two bits each. Most are short snippets (a minute or less). I’ve tried to mark when they are longer (sometimes you just need to include Roy Wood, Jr.’s Rod Stewart story, so they can’t all be short). I started to add some full length specials under a few, so if you really want to dive deeper, that’s an option too. This list is fully adaptable. Send me your favorites. Enjoy some laughs.
