John Mulaney: New in Town

Modeling himself after the comedic stylings of Bob Newhart, Jack Benny and Woody Allen, 29-year-old John Mulaney, Saturday Night Live writer/producer and creator of viral sensation Stefon Zolesky, is a decidedly old soul. And on his second album, New in Town, the young stand up has discovered that his best material is about the grown-up-before-his-time dude he looks at in the mirror every day.   read more

Kyle Kinane: Death of the Party Reissue

There have been very few stand-up albums that scream out for a vinyl release, but Kyle Kinane’s Death of the Party definitely merits the treatment. The heavy-metal-esque cover art alone is frame-worthy. But it’s also worth celebrating that the album, easily one of 2010’s most essential stand-up records, is being revisited.  read more

Patrice O’Neal: Mr. P

On the final album he recorded before he passed away last year, Patrice O’Neal says as he gets older his mind gets dirtier. Uh, bro, we could tell that already. Mr. P finds O’ Neal in uproariously unfettered form, attacking every single sensibility any audience member could possibly have, and getting as much joy from the “He just said what?” laughs as from the arm-crossed scolds. (It’s always good to have a few of those in the audience, he notes. Keeps it more fun.)  read more

DC Pierson: Bad at Girls, Great at Jokes

Aziz Ansari To Sell Special Through Digital Download

John Mulaney: SNL, Stefon & Self-Punchlines

Twenty-nine-year-old John Mulaney is an old soul. Despite his place as a Saturday Night Live writer/producer and an up-and-coming comic, his comedic sensibility is rooted in the old-dude humor of guys like Woody Allen, Jack Benny and Bob Newhart, whose albums he listened to avidly as a youngster. There was another positive male role model in those days as well. “I think when you’re a kid, you impersonate people that you see on TV or in movies or in your real life,” Mulaney says. “And I think, in a lot of ways, the way I present myself is as...  read more
