Laughter is the best medicine but is seems to lose some of its luster when you have to look hard and pay access fees to get to the humor you are looking for. Well look no further! YouTube is home thousands of stand-up comedy specials that can be accessed for free on their platform.
Jim Carrey – Unnatural Act – We all know Jim Carrey from icon movie roles such as The Mask, and Ace Ventura. But before his movie career, Jim made this stand up special. He tackles the stereotypes of Canadians, tells many hilarious stories about his family, and more, all while bringing out many silly faces along the way.
Ben Bailey – Road Rage & Accidental Ornithology – You may know him as the host of Cash Cab, but Ben Bailey is also a comedian. In this stand-up special, he makes jokes about the frustrations of driving while running a game show, tells the story of a rather frustrating owl, and dives into the topic of lactose intolerance.
Liz Miele – Emotionally Exhausted – In Liz Miele’s first comedy special, she covers the struggles of finding a gay best friend, the perks of having a troubled childhood, and the gauntlet challenge of keeping a significant other. She’s not afraid to cover dark subjects or tell jokes that might hurt someone’s feelings. Liz tells the jokes that are on her mind and they are usually pretty funny in the most shocking of ways.
Brad Williams – Fun Sized – Brad Williams talks about the many humorous situations he finds himself in as a little person and it is nothing short of hilarious. From telling stories about his USO tour in Afghanistan to his sexual experiences, everything in his stand-up will bring the viewer buckets of tears from laughing.
Tom Glover – A Glover Not a Fighter – You won’t have seen Tom on TV but he’s been putting live crowds into fits of giggles for about a decade now. Those years of honing and refining his craft pay off here in his punningly titled debut special. A Glover Not A Fighter sketches three generations of his family with particular focus on his relationship with his dad.
Randy Feltface – Randy Writes a Book – Imagine if a character from one of the Muppets movies channeled Jim Jefferies: the result might be this purple puppet named Randy Feltface from Australia. In this special, he tries to present a novel he’s written while going on about the likes of Ernest Hemingway, veganism, and a delightful story about a man named Morgan.
Aisha Alfa – All The Parts – Aisha Alfa is downright hilarious due to her infectious personality and energy combined with her relatable stories in life. In this special she covers the joys and quirks of being a biracial woman from Canada, teaching men how to properly please a woman in bed and making fun of her childhood self.
Diane Spencer – Noob – Diane Spencer might be YouTube’s most prolific stand up comedian, with eight full length specials on the platform. This latest show covers being newly married and trying to build an online profile when you share a name with a much more famous Diana but the overriding theme is sex.
Phil Wang – Antihero – Phil Wang has appeared on all the usual panel shows and you may have seen him on Live At The Apollo. This special offers intelligent filth in the form of “intellectually justified dick jokes” and that about sums up an hour of comedy that manages to be both silly and clever.
