    He is the best up and coming comedian. It might be better to say he already is here and just killing it. His consistency on yt is great. I saw him at a club and he was great. He has great presence and story telling.

    This man is the next comic that will be compared to the other goats.

      Not only is he putting out great sets, but he is churning them out at a crazy rate. My friends and I cannot believe how often he’s just like “here’s a 45 min set on the events of the past 3 days” like how does he have time!?!

        It’s actually unreal how much material he’s putting out so rapidly. No other standup comedian does anything close to this.

        Comedians go on tour performing the same routine, just in different cities. Maybe they’ll revise and adjust it over the course of the tour, and often leave a little room for improv crowd work, but the main routine that is planned and rehearsed is something they write once per tour.

        So for Josh Johnson to have an entirely new routine every single week, it’s unheard of. He isn’t just someone who will go down in history next to the pantheon of greats, he’s in his own league doing something none of the greats can be compared to.

          It’s crazy how much drive he has. He has so much talent. I’m glad he’s getting recognized.
