No matter what the age difference between you and your genitals, you’ll both love celebrating Stand-Up Month with these classic Louis CK videos.
Here they are: The 50 actors, stand-ups, TV hosts, Twitterers, radio personalities, septuagenarians and sports analysts making us laugh the most right now. In making this list, we took the “now” part seriously, and focused on comedians’ recent work. That meant excluding some all-time greats who aren’t very active as funnymen (or aren’t doing their best work at the moment) in favor of people who are truly killing it out there these days.
This is a good list!
There’s never a bad day to watch this classic Louis CK bit, but as you prepare to be SO MAD about headphone jack locations and front-facing camera megapixels, today is an especially good day.
Retro Weekend: Then & Now - Louis CK
In honor of our Retro Weekend, we’re going to be spending the day looking at some Then & Now clips of your favorite comedians.
First up, Louis CK, pictured here on a 1993 episode of Two Drink Minimum and on The Daily Show this past July.
Be sure to get in on the Retro Weekend fun by tweeting your photos and memories of the 80s and 90s to @ComedyCentral with hashtag #RetroWeekend. They might even end up on the air.
As you prepare to learn the many new and amazing ways the iPhone 5 will suck, this classic Louis CK bit should offer some perspective.
Splitsider has a fun piece on what comedians do to prepare before going on stage. There’s no hard and fast rule, of course, but it’s still interesting to hear different perspectives.
(Me, I pace. A lot.)
As promised, Louis CK returned to The Daily Show last night. Click the image to watch him and Jon Stewart discuss controversial comedy, controversial tweets and controversial controversies.
After an agonizing two weeks away, The Daily Show is finally back with new episodes tonight when Jon will welcome some guy named Louis CK back to the show. I think he’s an economist or something.
Click the image to watch Louis’s last appearance on the show, then tune in tonight at 11/10c.
