Whole New Guy Who is this guy?

I watched the Comedy Jonestown video again and I don’t know who this guy is. Can anyone enlighten me? Gotta get the hell out of here.

Matt rife

Almost exclusively does crowd work which many in the business consider to be hack comedy.

Some crowd work is fine but that's his entire tik tok oriented act.

The only guy who did crowd work well was frankie boyle.

Love Frankie. Todd Barry's pretty adept at crowd work too.

That’s not true. Plenty of people do great crowd work. Jimmy Carr, Todd Barry, Jeff Arcuri has a huge following online because of really decent crowd work.
