    Louis CK, the only man in the world funny enough to un-cancel himself

    Lol true. Though it helps when half of your routine is to joke about how shitty of a person you think you are, and then it turns out that’s true, and people are like β€œyeah that checks out”

    I'll give you two, one living, one passed.

    Randy Feltface is great with crowd work.

    Mitch Hedberg was a genius with delivery, and even though I've seen most of his recorded work multiple times, I still laugh out loud.

  • Scrolled too far without seeing Weird Al listed. He may not do stand-up but he's absolutely a comedian, and he's been making me laugh consistently for 30 years now.

    James Acaster is the correct answer in here - he is hilariously funny and very progressive

    Patton Oswalt. I love that nerdy little hobbit man when he really gets on a rant.

    Fern Brady I find always makes me laugh, it's like she's enjoying herself and just bringing everyone else along for the ride. Even in interviews I just end up really enjoying myself.

    Demetri Martin! One liners galore and fun visual "musical" comedy.

    Rowan Atkinson. I'm unable to watch Mr Bean or Blackadder with a straight face. Everything he does is comedy gold.

    Also the one and only Robin Williams, may he rest in peace. Watched his stand up program and spilled my drink multiple times

    Conan O'Brien. He's just effortlessly funny, especially when he's just riffing with Sona and Matt on "Conan O'Brien needs a friend".

    Don Rickles. Some of his stuff is very dated, but he skewers everyone... with love. πŸ™„
