Late Night Comedy Round-up




Stand-up comedy has had a big resurgence in the public eye in the last 5ish years. After a void in the '90s, most of the late-night shows are once again letting comedians come on television and get their name out to a national audience. 

I have compiled for you, my friends, four comedians who are not as well known as your Louis C.K.s or your Jim Gaffigans, but are worthy of your laughter.


Some comedians are



But these folks are






Kurt Braunohler on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon

Kurt is best-known for his Nerdist network podcast called "The K Ohle". 
                                          (That's how it's spelled. It's pronounced like K-Hole)








Nikki Glaser on Late Night with Seth Meyers (contains some NSFW themes)

Nikki is a quick-witted comic known for her style of underselling punchlines. The studio audience in this clip is not quite there with her, but she's a real pro and powers through.







Pete Holmes on Conan

Pete holds a special place in my heart. He has this goofy persona and likes to deconstruct things to find the most innocent side of a joke. He hosts a great podcast called "You Made It Weird" on the Nerdist network.







Leslie Jones on Late Night with Seth Meyers

Leslie is a force of nature. She's been doing comedy for a while, but most people know her from her amazing appearance on Weekend Update. (Can a bitch get a beef bowl?!)
