FOUR STORIES FROM JOSH WOLF

If for some reason you’re a stand up comedy fan and you don’t know about Josh Wolf yet that should really change. This guy is truly talented, funny, and a crowdpleaser. Go see him live that’s the first thing I’ll say. See him live. He loves to perform live. Plays all over, everywhere. He puts on amazing shows. He’s a storyteller, a monologist, a raconteur.

He sings, does funny songs, but it’s really about being an entertainer and having a good time, about making sure the audience is having a good time. It’s a very modern version of a very old fashioned thing. No two shows are ever the same. He’s like that guy from the seventies Jim Stafford if Jim were a stoner and were balls out funny. Naughty funny.

I tease around that I want to be him when I grow down, but the truth is I do envy this guy. He’s got his own thing, his own brand, his own fans. Well over a a million fans on Youtube, more on the other platforms. He has a successful podcast, travels with his son, Jacob, sells a ton of tickets everywhere, puts out his specials when he feels they’re ready, has a residency at Jimmy Kimmel’s club in Vegas on Monday nights, and is more or less dancing to his own beat.

FOUR STORIES

Is a lively ass little special. I happen to love the way it’s shot. It’s a warts and all, you are there kind of a shoot. They shot it up in Vancouver at a comedy club and just let the night happen, so as a result, you’re just in a seat, a good seat, at a great night. Not a perfect night in fact, at one point he has to throw a woman out up front who’s messing the show up, and it stops the show’s rhythm. Yet it doesn’t. That’s what Josh is great at. He goes with the change, takes the ride, and then doesn’t cut it out to the special and it’s a lot of laughs. Then he’s back to his stories. His four stories. One better than the rest. It’s Josh playing into his sweet spot. Enjoy it.

And see him live. He’s got a charm to him. Very similar to what the Sandman has. So likable.

BEST PRACTICAL JOKE EVER

So this is a great example of what Josh does. This has been seen over 12 million times for a reason. It’s a great starter course if you’re new to the cult. I can almost guarantee you’ll want to not only watch Four Stories, but that you want to go see the guy live.
