    Roy Wood Jr. is hilarious and so is Hannibal Buress, pretty much anything from them is great.

    Stavros Halkias has good specials, just don’t go near the crowd work (but that’s pretty much every comic).

    Aamer Rahman is great and he just came out from hiatus, check his older stuff first and see if you like it.

    Michael Che has good stand up too, even if you know him from SNL and don’t like his stuff there.

    The randomness of python packaging attempts. Recommend reading the source code of Chimera Linux. How to build a distro and write everything as a script.

    And any recent dramas bad reviews on imdb. Forget about watching the videos, the reviews are priceless

    Sheng Wang is hilarious, I think his humor would align well with a lot of people here. He has a special on Netflix worth checking out

    I’m amazed no one has mentioned Susie/Eddie Izzard yet. Their sets are rather old at this point so I shouldn’t be too surprised, but they are all great and I highly recommend them, especially if you are into history at all.

    James Acaster has a good 4 part comedy special. Jeff Arcuri is pretty active on YouTube and instagram

      Ya I’ve seen Jeff Arcuri. He’s great but I’ve only seen his shorts. Does he have long form stuff online?

      Personally, as much as I loved Bill Hicks at the time, and he died far too young, I don’t think his material has aged well. The level of corruption he was railing against just seems cute these days.

    George Carlin. Start with Class Clown, it’s more approachable than his later stuff but once you get him you can pick up anything.

      Kevin Bridges’ older stuff is world class too. Haven’t seen him recently
