Aziz Ansari’s ‘Dangerously Delicious’
Time will tell that Aziz is not a TV actor moonlighting as a comedian. It might be the other way around.
Reggie Watts’ ‘A Live At Central Park’
I still can’t decide if I want to describe Watts as comically musical or musically hilarious
Andy Woodhull’s ‘Lucy’
Comedy about a budding man, his dog and what he suspects is a crazy but responsible sex orgy.
Lewis Black’s ‘The Prophet’
You all know Lewis Black. His endlessly malevolent tirades from his work as a Daily Show correspondent are iconoclastic. His disdain for Twitter and obnoxious social media geeks is perhaps the only thing he hates more than two Starbucks coffee shops on the same corner
Eddie Gossling’s ‘Fresh Brewed’
Gossling is a cartoon, and in the best of ways.
Mike Brody’s ‘That’s Not What I Meant’
Sometimes it’s nice to listen to a comedian who’s not pissed off at the world.
Lisa Lampanelli’s ‘Equal Opportunity Offender’
Lisa Lampanelli is a bitch. Plain and simple. However, unlike other obnoxious women I’ve listened to (i.e. sorority girls, my mother) that’s the exact reason why I love her
Jim Gaffigan’s ‘Mr. Universe’
Few comedians can become famous because of Hot Pockets
Donald Glover’s ‘Weirdo’
He’s an actor by trade, he’s a rapper under the pseudonym Childish Gambino and now he’s proven to be a successful stand-up comedian with his second stand-up special and first full hour for Comedy Central.
Jo Koy’s ‘Lights Out’
Jo Koy is proud of his son. But he shows it – how should we say – in an alternative way.
Nick Griffin’s ‘Shot in the Face’
I knew I liked Nick Griffin upon listening to his first track. Check that, I knew I was going to like Nick Griffin by the title of his first track: “Intro/I Hate People.”
Alysia Wood’s ‘Princess’
Alysia Wood is sure of one thing: she’s no princess. But if she were, she’d be the one with the cockeyed crown, warts from kissing toads and the Fairy Godmother who can’t stop nattering about how her sister married a doctor
Andy Hendrickson’s ‘Underachiever’
The title for his upcoming comedy album is inspired largely by the fact that he has a brother, who according to him, is a Navy Seal who graduated from Harvard with a master’s in business
Doug Stanhope’s ‘Before Turning the Gun on Himself’
Doug Stanhope is unlike any other comedian of his generation. Most middle-aged comedians are caught somewhere between the foibles of parenting, marriage and death. Not him
Tom Papa’s ‘Live in New York City’
By all appearances, Papa is a normal guy. He’s a balding forty-four year-old man married with kids. The thing that stands out about Tom is his moxie. His on stage command of his material, humor and middle aged angst.
