Just from his face, you can see a certain unbridled spirit in the comedy of Joe Machi that keeps a smile on our face between laughs. You might not even notice that Joe’s well crafted jokes get at the complexity of the human experience because there’s such a bubbly energy to his set.
See for yourself from last night’s Conan here.
Midnight on Comedy Central.
Some of NYC’s finest have their episodes of The Half Hour airing tonight.
More specifically, Joe Machi’s half hour special is at 12AM and Drew Michael’s follows right after at 12:30AM.
Tune in, DVR, or whatever else you got to do to watch.
This should make for a really strong season of The Half Hour on Comedy Central.
Getting their own half-hour specials in the fall this year will be:
Cy Amundson
Erik Bergstrom
Ahmed Bharoocha
Matthew Broussard
Naomi Ekperigin
Nate Fernald
Noah Gardenswartz
Emily Heller
Martha Kelly
Joe Machi
Drew Michael
Aparna Nancherla
Jacqueline Novak
Mike Recine
Ramon Rivas II
Ali Saddiq
Nick Turner
There is a great deal of the folks above that it would be worth going to YouTube and checking out whether you’re familiar with them or not.
If you happen to be in New Orleans in the beginning of June, you can go to the tapings of these half hour specials.
In anticipation of Last Comic Standing’s return on May 22nd at 9PM on NBC, this latest promo shows two of damn funny comics in Randy Liedtke and Joe Machi.
Hopefully, they make it through several rounds. Watch the promo here.
