One of the best #Indigenous #comedians - the legendary #CharlieHill 💗 R.I.P.
He was such a #trailblazer & inspiration for many native comedians who came after. RichardPryor recognized Charlie's talent & gave him a TV spotlight in the late 70s.

Don't know why but was thinking about the late comedian Jeremy Hardy. Remember seeing him at The Stables, MK back before the big refurbishment in that daft stage-in-a-barn that only had sides. It was a hot summer night with no air con & he wore shorts. I'm glad I saw him so many times. He'd be incandescent at the state we've got ourselves in these days. #Memories #UK #comedians

Nu, Olaf, zum Heinz Erhard hat dein Wording, deine Kommunikationskunst nicht ganz gereicht, nä.
- Lass ihn doch, auch wenn's für Comedian nicht reicht, muss man ja von was leben, dann eben in die Politik. Und bei den meisten, also solange keine wichtigen Sachen anstehn, fällt es gar nicht auf.
- Ich mein nur, andersrum wär besser, denn über #Politiker kann man gut lachen, und #Comedians sind leidenschaftliche Welterklärer, Philosoph und Ethiker, alles was es braucht.

Marc Maron has called out comedians with podcasts who joke around with white supremacists and fascists on their shows. Maron has had his own podcast, WTF, since 2009. “Even though I do not do a political show I have been very clear in my specials and on the podcast that I believe, and have believed for years, what is brewing in this country is an American fascist movement rooted half in grievance and half in Jesus and enabled by tech oligarchs and an inundation of propaganda from many sources,” he wrote in a blogpost. Here's more from @Variety. Read the full blogpost at the second link.

Variety · Marc Maron Slams Comedians for Having Fascists on Their PodcastsVon Ethan Shanfeld

That’s 588ish people. If this math is even close to correct, we’ve only just begun.

“SDA also identified as pro-#Russian #influencers more than 2,800 people in 81 countries operating on various social media platforms like #X, #Facebook, and #Telegram. Those influencers included “television and radio #hosts, #politicians, #bloggers, #journalists, businessmen, #professors, think-tank analysts, #veterans, and #comedians.” About 21% of those influencers were in the U.S.”

Tonight, we hold our regular Monday Night Zoom meeting. Think of it as a national writers' table. Before you do a show or go to that open mic, kick the tires on your jokes with others doing the same. If you can't make it, please feel free to do the exercises and tag us.

The #diversity of #disabilities means #accessibility needs can be both wide-ranging within the community and specific to an individual. But in general, “there are very, very few venues where the stage itself is accessible. There’s a slightly larger number, but still plenty of places #inaccessible for an audience member to watch the show,” says Dan Hurwitz, co-founder of the Seattle-based comedian collective #TheDisabledList and a stand-up missing digits from his hands and feet.

#Comedians say their medium inherently requires flexibility and improvisation, but what’s being asked of them is #inequitable, may be illegal under #TitleIII of the #AmericansWithDisabilitiesAct, and can have long-lasting impacts on their careers. “A comedy stage is the entry point to these other opportunities that will help to develop your art,” notes Nina G., author of “Stutterer Interrupted” and a member of the Bay Area troupe #ComediansWithDisabilities Act. “If you’re not able to develop your art, how are you going to get those acting gigs? How are you going to write that sitcom? How are you going to get a special?”

According to Snipe, acts can face “the fire and the gauntlet” of navigating inaccessible public transit or expensive and unreliable rideshares even before they arrive. Once at the venue, ASL interpreters, audio description, ramps or accessible bathrooms are few and far between, whether in L.A., New York, or outside these coastal entertainment bubbles.

Variety · Disabled Comedians Speak Out on Performance and Career Barriers Due To Widespread Industry Inaccessibility: ‘I Want There to Be More of Us’Von Sharareh Drury

From the moment the stand-up comedian asked "What do you do?" and the guy in the audience answered "War crimes investigator" I was hooked. It was just the beginning!

Patrick Spicer is now the owner of the most perfect ‘joke’ of 2024.
