Dmitri Martin has an uncanny ability to make me laugh out loud like basically no one else can.

Milton Jones. His style is basically one-liners, but he's amazing at them. If you've ever watched his appearances on Mock the Week you'll know.

Joke answer: Peter Molyneux

Serious answer: The sadly now retired Eckart von Hirschhausen, who does comedy mostly about health and medical topics.

Jimmy O. Yang.

Jo Koy.

There are others, but these are the most recent I've watched.

Kyle Kinane

My personal favourite is Jon Richardson.

[–] ohlaph@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Bruan Reagan and Norm McDonald are two of my favorites.

[–] Yondoza@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Jeff Arcuri - his funniest stuff is his crowd work so he constantly has new stuff to watch.

Rodney Dangerfield.

Still the king of one liners.

I'm going with the niche german option: Jan Philip Zymny. He is a former Poetry Slammer and writes hilarious dadaistic texts. An he can also do that spontaneous together with the audience.

And of course the german comedian Thorsten StrΓ€ter.

Chris Estrada. His TV show This Fool is one of the best things to watch, it's SO good.

Also Maria Bamford is a riot.

The end of the supermarket episode of Joe Pera Talks With You made me laugh harder than I have ever laughed in my life.
