Paula Poundstone is on YouTube a lot.
Patton Oswalt is funny, imo, along with Louis C.K., Wanda Sykes, Jim Gaffigan, Chris Rock, Dave Attell, Sarah Silverman, Dave Chappelle & others.
Any comedian hosting SNL is usually funny.
I think stand-up comedy is alive & well in America, in spite of TSF being POTUS.
