20. Jimmy Fallon
Dammit, three times I’ve done this! Jimmy Fallon doesn’t belong on this list. He’s too famous. I do love watching The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon cause it matches my comedic sensibilities, but I do gotta correct this error once I get a moment. It isn’t fair to all the comics who want to be on the list.

15. Kelly Ryan
Last month, I visited the wonderful city of Portland where Kelly Ryan spent much of her pandemic, eventually going on to win Portland’s Funniest. I spent 5 days listening to people tell me how great she is and there’s a reason this was happening. Kelly is simply undeniable and has what feels like a gift, the ability to walk out onto stage and make a room explode. She’s fun, high energy, loud, unapologetic, just a hilarious, kind person who knows how to bring the fucking heat.

13. Alfred Konuwa
Once in Austin, we went to Terry Black’s where I accidentally spent $60 on barbecue. It was the best mistake I’ve ever made cause holy shit that was some damned good brisket. Dude, even their coleslaw was tits and I couldn’t have shared this experience with a better comic and friend.

11. Joel Jimenez
Joel Jimenez might be the best drummer in the LA comedy scene which he definitely used to his advantage. He also listens to really cool music. He did a drum video to a Pennywise song and I was like fuck yeah that guy’s my friend. Looking forward to jamming one day Joel. Hope you like power chords!

7. Josh Lanzet
Josh Lanzet is more than a comedian. He is a writer, a philosopher, an artist, and above all, my liaison. Josh, if you’re reading this, can you tell Chris Gorbos to let me go surfing with him and the rest of the M.i.’s Westside Comedy Theater gang? Surfing really can’t be that hard. I had a skateboard when I was a kid. Please? I don’t wanna pay Jared Levin for surf lessons.
