I got to see Todd Barry on a whim one night and I was crying laughing in my seat, his crowd work is fantastic and he was absolutely skewering the local yuppies of my town.

Shane gilis and Matt mcusker mostly when they're not doing stand up. The conversations are just so perfectly stupid that it cracks me up every time.

Way too many these days and not in a bad way.

Chappelle really is the goat of stand up. Bill Burr is always fucking funny. Shane Gillis is pretty funny. Nikki Glaser is hilarious too.

never understood the hate he gets. I saw that special he did and I really didn't see anything disturbing.

I named 4 comedians, only 3 were male but I'm not entirely sure who you're referring to.

The world has become a sensitive weak place

I'm guessing Chapelle. Who was great back in the day. The new stuff? Ehhh. He is less funny and seems out of touch to me, like when he brought Musk on stage, and then proceeded to riff on his own audience for booing

First time I hear about the musk thing but it sounds tricky, yes. He got a lot of flack from the LGBTQIA+ community, which I really don’t understand even after watching all the specials β€žin questionβ€œ.

I haven't even heard of most of these people, I've got some stand up to watch! Thanks to all who contribute.

zoltan kaszas.

very strong on the fly and always has new material, usually relevant to wherever he's performing

I've never heard of any of these names in the comments here. I'm afraid to ask and it's making me very uncomfortable. I want to block OP for asking a question whose answers hurt me.
