    Tell me about your favorite comedians. I feel like watching some stand-up.

    My brother swears by Russell Peters. I am partial to Jay Mohr, but I don't even know if he does stand-up anymore.

    I didn't mean live stand-up, thanks though. I'll check 'em out.

    Without question, Dimitri Martin


    But there are many others. The Pablo Francisco Comedy Central set is legendary. David Cross has a lot of good stuff. It's not really stand up, more Comedy Musicians, but I enjoy Flight of the Conchords and Bo Burnham. Zach Galifianakis is great. Jim Gaffigan can be funny but I'm tired of his style. Nick Swardson, Mike Birbiglia and Dave Attell are all good too, but I haven't heard any of them in quite some time. Most recently the Jeff Dunham special with the puppets was pretty cool. I watched some of that with my friends.

    I like a lot of the Comdy Central Presents stuff. But those are much suggestions. I won't rank them because I really don't think I could. But I recommend them all, especially Dimitri Martin, Pablo Francisco, and Zach Galifianakis.

    It's a good way to waste time.

    I like Chris Rock and DL Hughley, but I don't get to see enough standup.
