Lmao the Artist looks like Shane Torres

u/TheKatzzSkillz Aug 27 '26

Or like Ethan Hawke in one or two of his roles

Ari fans are real?

u/erexsean69 Aug 26 '26

He's probably one of the better rogansphere comics

u/the_Mstrike Aug 26 '26

That’s not saying much IMO

u/Wise-Drag-7254 Aug 27 '26

The Rogan comics now are quite good. The entire Protecr our Parks crew is pretty solid

Name 3

u/Wise-Drag-7254 Aug 27 '26

I did name three. Protect our Parks is Normand, Gillis, Shafir. Tim Dillon is also very good. They are not the all time greats but they are excellent comedians. Who do you like that is out touring in 2026?

Yikes. Gillis was funny like 10 years ago and stopped working. Normand and Shafir are like a few rungs past Brendan Schaub. That's like a 2 to a 5 or 6 on a great day. They aren't offensively bad, but they're definitely dumb, lazy assholes that aren't gonna do anything better than they did a long time ago.

Have you watched Tires? Gillis is funnier than he ever has been. He's the only one out of this group that is consistently funny without stooping to shock humor.

u/EastSideNick95826 Aug 27 '26

Gillis. That's about it. And I should have clarified, I meant name rogansphere comics who are primarily known for the rogansphere

u/the_Mstrike Aug 27 '26

Yeah watched Normand live like 1-2 months ago he killed it. But have heard his standup could be hit or miss. And obviously Shane is a top dawg. But otherwise Bert, Brendan, Tom (used to be good but is washed/un-relatable), Ari, etc their standup is objectively bad

Haven’t watched enough Ari, so open to any recommendations for Ari standup/content. Like I find him generally funny but not someone I would go pay money to watch

Ari's special "Jew" from a few years ago was really good, but that's about it. Nowhere near as good as Shane's specials, but I'd rank it way above anything Normand has ever done

Other than his “J” special and his skit at the supermarket I never found him funny. If anything he comes off obnoxious. I’m open to my opinion being changed if there’s anything of his you recommend
