Favorite Stand-up Comedian

I like the storytelling of Bill cosby and Bob Newhart. I liked Richard Jeni as well the couple of times I saw him live. RIP to Mr. Jeni

Cosby is a great story teller no doubt

Mitch Hedberg is my all time fav. I'll check out Dmitri Martin per your reccomendation.

I definitely agree about Hedberg, that man was classic. He's up there along with Carlin, Carlin's jokes were timeless classics imo because for me most of them still ring true today.

And I second the Demetri Martin recommendation. I have a lot of his stuff on my computer, I think his delivery is what makes it so funny imo. I find his stuff to be a lot better with visual aids though, which is why I recommend you check out his standup on Comedy Central Presents.

Bill Hicks!!!

+1 Bill Hicks was the man.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned jim gaffigan. minute for minute I think he's awesome, although he doesn't seem to perform all that often. Rock is different than he used to be - I can listen to his new stuff i.e. "don't kill the messenger" for several minutes w/o laughing.

^^^ Rock used to be my favorite.

Zach Galifianakis.

George Carlin. He was just really good. I hated his politics but no one is perfect.

This one is for you environmentalist.
