Does anyone have any decent stand-up comedy recommendations? I obviously don't want anything woke but it doesn't have to be anti-woke either (although I'm certainly open to anti-woke recommendations as well). It seems like stand-up comedy is dying along with the rest of the entertainment industry.

Brent Morrin released a single stand up show on Netflix a while back and its still the funniest shit I've ever seen. Obviously don't pay for Netflix for it, but that's the only place its available.
And while he is an admitted "little liberal bitch boy" Cy Amundson's released two standup albums are basically my go to for solid laughs. The liberal part don't come up on the album, but people like to write off anyone of those groups (which is why this thread is mostly the same 6 or so recommendations everytime it comes up) so its worth a mention I suppose.
Because really that's the issue with the entire industry. Its disgustingly nepotistic, so as the Left became more intolerant of anyone who didn't march perfectly with them they filtered out anyone who didn't fall in line. You could see this as it happened with Carlos Mencia who everyone felt the need to take potshots at for his entire run, including Mr. "totally not woke bro" Joe Rogan who destroyed his career over "stolen" jokes while running every defense possible for Amy Schumer when she stole some. Same with the Blue Collar Comedy guys during their heyday, where it was an afront to every comedian that non-urban liberals could be represented.
Point of that rant is that standup is dying and isn't going to get better anytime soon.
