The Laugh Factory has gathered submissions from around the world of comedians vying for the Laugh Factory’s distinction of Funniest Person in the World. Ranging from Israel to South Korea to South Africa, there’s stand-up to watch from all over the world featuring the amazing comedic talents of people like Canada’s Mark Forward or the Netherlands’ Stefan Pop. 

Through a few rounds of voting, any one of these people could win $10,000 and be part of a tour. So, give an international act a chance here in the States.

1) The Late Show’s David Letterman called a Jew (when he’s not) and was threatened to be killed. 

2) Peter Atencio will be the sole director for all episodes of the upcoming sketch series Key & Peele on Comedy Central.  We absolutely can’t wait to see what he comes up with.

3) Laughspin gets another update from Jeff Mackinnon at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

4) The Compatish proves that miniature golf isn’t just for kids… or is it?

5) Tim Shaw expounds as to what it can take to be a truly great comedian and why that has made him retire from comedy.

6) Rob Delaney explains how having one of his jokes stolen invigorated him to conquer Twitter.

7) James Patterson has a beautiful story about why Yelapa isn’t a romantic getaway.

8) The singular Rick Shapiro will be on the Green Room with Paul Provenza (Showtime 11PM), Mark Hamill & Tony Hale are guest stars on NTSF:SD:SUV (Adult Swim 12:15AM), and Hitfix’s Alan Sepinwall makes a case for continuing to watching Louie, just in case you were on the fence (FX 11PM).

12) So, we got the most traffic we’ve ever gotten here yesterday and it was all because of a reblog/retweet of a PDF of a great article by Zach Dionne on the WTF Podcast. As it was misinterpreted by a few people as to who wrote the piece (it’s wasn’t us), we feel compelled to have an actual piece about Marc Maron here written by us, which will be a review of his new album “This Has To Be Funny”, to be posted very soon.
