Well, stand up india is about 4-5 years old, prior to that, we only had Laughter challenge style of clean stand up comedy ( by clean i mean, TV networks style of clean with hanky-panky stuff). The scene has kind of exploded in the last one year or so with many live shows albeit not many real good comics. (All MBAs- read this as opportunity)

This thread will be about Discovering New Comedians from across the Universe or lets just stick to planet Earth given that Internet has its own limitations ( Its like discovering New Music), Sharing clips of the artists taht you love, discussion on anything to do with stand up comedy esp, the kind of stuff that you like a comedian to do.

Also, les discuss on the Stand up scene in India, how is it maturing (not growing up though ;)) what to do if anyone wants to get into Stand up scene etc etc, you get the drift, you smart peoples.

To start with, here is a clip from my favorite comic - RIP George Carlin

Cut down the Ten Commandments!!



You know her but maybe from the other Side. She is the smartest this side 😃



Another legend left too early. Funnier than the lot!
