I have collected, for your enjoyment, an anthology of all the weird things I have done in my life to try and make friends. Do not attempt these methods for yourselves.

9.0Stand-up comic George Lopez uses his childhood experiences growing up Latino in the San Fernando Valley as a platform for nonstop humor. The funnyman takes you on a liberating journey as he hysterically dissects his life growing up in Los Angeles. Reminiscing about the unique quirks in Mexican culture, George tackles such topics as family relationships, insecurities, sexuality, drinking and language.
6.7Nothing left to lose... Fabrice Eboué lets loose like never before in this new show. If he has a field day with vegans, conspiracy theorists or his mixed couple, it is above all himself that he prefers to laugh at! 1h30 of healthy and jubilant anger!
0.0Loyiso Gola is one of South Africa's most talented comedians. His unique sense of humour and affinity toward openly frank and observational commentary has carved him into a comedy genius. At 25, he's the first comedian to win a South African Comedy Award, and he's been nominated for Best Comedian of the Year at the ‘Stars of Mzansi Awards’ 2008.
6.7In Jonatan Spang's one-man show, everything is ready for the big event, and the groom is free of all his (214) previous relationships, finally ready to put the ring on a finger. Spang has the church commissioned, the speech largely written, and the champagne on ice. But, there's one problem: what's a wedding without someone to be wed to?
6.6Ron White does an hour long standup routine about his life, things that bother him, and other thoughts.
7.0The young and extremely talented Uruguayan comedian Facu Díaz, known for personally writing the synopsis of his shows, returns to the road with a monologue full of observations that contribute between zero and nothing, typical of a person with a lot of time on his hands (Campos Elíseos Theater, Bilbao, Spain, June 2023.)
6.6Ventriloquist Jeff Dunham brings his rude, crude and slightly demented posse of puppets to Ireland for a gleeful skewering of family and politics.
0.0The larger themes of life have slowly found their way into Goedemondt's small, safe world. He wasn't been waiting for that at all. How long can you deal maturely with, for example, parenthood, the future, and death as a forty-something? If it's up to Goedemondt: quite a while. He still doesn't stop his childish shouting and ranting, and he still taunts, rebukes, resists, stuns and ignores. Can he get by in society with that behavior? He's quite hard headed about that.
8.0This 1986 Showtime Special features the late great Harry "The Hat" Anderson performing a slick, occasionally shocking mix of magic and comedy for a live audience, inter-cut with a few sequences in which he repeatedly scams a mark. Look for Night Court co-star John Larroquette in a key scene.
6.2Emmy-winning actor, writer, and comedian Brett Goldstein brings his irresistible charm and quick wit stateside for his first HBO stand-up special. Best known for the hit shows "Ted Lasso" and "Shrinking", Goldstein sheds his testy Roy Kent façade to share his hilarious insights on love, sex, masculinity, "Sesame Street", and everything in between.
5.4A bucket, a mic and one minute to win over Tony Hinchcliffe and a panel of famous guests. This is stand-up at its most unforgiving — and unpredictable.

6.3Dane Cook's smash-hit show Rough Around The Edges is an energetic powerhouse stand-up performance recorded live in front of a packed house at Madison Square Garden.
0.0Human genetics is one of the most exciting fields in science at the moment. Not only does it advance exponentially fast, it is also a field of study that will very soon affect our daily lives. We will all have to deal with the possibilities and technologies that human genetics have to offer, today and in the coming years. Quite a few questions and dilemmas still have to be answered by us. Do I want to know everything that can be found out from my DNA? And who is allowed to use and read my genetic code? My doctor? The police? The chef of my favourite restaurant? Also, what genetic technologies do I want to use? Do I want to clone my dog, choose my children’s eye colour, or genetically modify them to give them extra talents? Do I want others in society to be allowed to do that? The current and future possibilities of human genetics are simply overwhelming. They are both promising and frightening, chilling and delightful.
8.7Brad Williams navigates relationships and everyday life as a little person.
7.6An HBO special edited from three performances from Chris Rock's 2008 comedy tour: London (dark suit, dark shirt), Johannesburg (black suit, white shirt) and New York (shiny jacket).

6.3Comedian and actress Atsuko Okatsuka brings her brand of ingenious, offbeat storytelling to the Elsewhere stage in Brooklyn, New York where she dishes on the futile art of impressing teenagers, attending a “Magic Mike Live” show with her grandmother, and the alarming reactions that she and her husband had to the unwanted presence of an intruder.
