What is your favorite standup comic?
Standup Comedy has become one of the last avenues of free aspersion. It holds a mirror to cultures face and strives for truth. It makes you widen your reality on life. It makes you literally see the mind of an individual . It is also so therapeutic. I am so interested in hearing who your favorite comedian is and why. Did it help you in the right time. Did the honesty fascinate you. Did it make you have a different perspective on things or did they just have the capacity to make you laugh and feel good in the face of this agonizing culture that we live in. I will start. I WIll GO FIRST. My favorite comedian is the one and only Doug Stanhope. Doug has A rare talent to verbally paint pictures that would make a sewer rat skip a meal - and use them to push us deeper into the challenge of spotting and changing the bullshit around us. One of the few that can make profoundly beautiful philosophy fit into the dirtiest, funniest shit you’ll ever hear There is no comedian like Doug Stanhope. There is no person like Doug Stanhope. An absolute inspiration to comedians to not give up on the topics they want to present, as well as an inspiration to comedians who feel as if the industry is pushing them around. Stanhope is a cliche; a true living legend..

Bill Hicks. Some people think he died back in the kinetic. I believe he faked his death, changed his identity, and then got into the alternative news business.

George Carlin was, RIP.

But the more you listen to him the more he was just talking about life with a few jokes thrown in.

Dave Chapelle was pretty hilarious back in the 2000's.

I get the feeling Carlin would have went woke. I hope I am wrong. Owen Benjamin might be the best right now according to the OP's standards.

One of his last interviews was with Keith Olbermann, back when Olbermann was still on MSNBC. Carlin told Keith he had the best news program on tv.

 Quoting: Xrussox 79077231


I WAS A STANDUP IN THE 80'S-90'S AND WORKED WITH STANHOPE A FEW TIMES. I AGREE THAT HE IS RATHER UNIQUE IN THAT HE IS- IF NOTHING ELSE- EXTREMELY HONEST. THAT TRAIT IS VERY RARE IN HUMAN BEINGS, ESPECIALLY IN ONES AS FLAWED AS DOUG. HE DOESN'T HIDE FROM HIS FAILURES AND HIS WEAKNESSES, HE EMBRACES THEM.

ON THE OTHER HAND DOUG IS AS DEEPLY MISANTHROPIC AS ANYONE I HAVE EVER KNOWN. HE TRULY DISLIKES HUMANS AS A SPECIES AND TREATS VIRTUALLY EVERYONE- NOT JUST STRANGERS, BUT EVEN THOSE CLOSEST TO HIM- WITH PURE CONTEMPT. HE IS NOT A NICE PERSON, HE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT ANYONE- NOT EVEN BINGO- HE JUST USES THEM AS TOOLS IN THE JOB OF LIFE. HE IS ALSO NOWHERE NEAR AS SMART AS HE THINKS HE IS AND LOVES TO TALK ABOUT TOPICS HE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT AND DOESN'T EVEN BOTHER TO RESEARCH. I FIND HIS IGNORANCE APPALLING AND IT WAS ALWAYS ONE OF HIS WEAKEST TRAITS. WHEN HE GOES ON A RIFF ABOUT REAL EXPERIENCES THERE ARE FEW GUYS ABLE TO PAINT THE PICTURE AS CLEARLY AS HE DOES AND THAT IS WHERE HE REALLY SHINES, HIS BIT ON JAKE LAMOTTA IS ABSOLUTE COMEDY GOLD. HIS OPINIONS ON THE OTHER HAND ARE LIKE THOSE OF SOME HOMELESS BUM, NOT REALLY WORTH MUCH TO ANYONE.

IF YOU LIKE IS STYLE THERE ARE OTHER GUYS WHO DO IT BETTER AND WHO KNOW QUITE A BIT MORE ABOUT THE THINGS THEY RIF ON - BRIAN BRADLEY, BLAINE CAPATCH, OWEN BENJAMIN
