He’s not the funniest comedian. But he IS funny. More importantly. He’s respectful, thoughtful, creative and just the way he’s made it, and carried himself practically. Again- thoughtfully.
And his regular fresh bits put up free weekly bloody genius. He has built. what feels to me. like community. It. and Seth’s corrections. have genuinely fulfilled some social need this summer, as I have been having my foot medically rebuilt lol. Many surgeries. much time

Josh Johnson is hands down the funniest comedian of his generation. Absolutely phenomenal in every performance & I don't think I've heard him tell the same joke or story twice. In a word, amazing. I sat in the chat with nearly 16k other fun loving fools watching his last video premiere here on YT & had a helluva good time. Just keep doing what you do, Josh. You've most certainly got this.

Absolutely love Josh’s comedy. In an age where stand-ups have to be faster than ever in making new content to make a name for themselves, his honest and crafted style is so impressive and enjoyable. I hope he gets the opportunity to really refine an hour set and release it in the nearer future, because it’d be a brilliant special.

I've been following Josh for a few years now and it's been awesome to see him only get better and better with time. I love that he always has fresh material - like someone else already commented, he really does show that quantity and quality can go hand-in-hand when done right! Excited to see him in STL this November: )

I just love this man. So down to earth. He's incredibly talented and is pushing out content for free on the regular that is all new all the time. Which is unheard of in his level of comedic chops. He could be selling his shows for thousands but keeps them available. May all the good things come to josh.

Like many others the klan story was my introduction years ago and he’s the best in the game right now in my eyes, yes quality over quantity always but he has mastered the art of original creative quality content consistently absolute master of his craft.

Feedback: Josh would never Raygun! Say less. Also watched billy connollys made in scotland and he talks about that quality network too. And finally, as an aussie, would love more immigration! But i swear, we do have awesome dancers here, and we are truly sorry about the olympics too

People say that George Carlin and Louis CK are the best stand ups of all time because they write a new set every year. Josh Johnson makes a brand new set every week while also writing for The Daily Show, and he kills it every time. I see a huge future for Josh.

I feel like Josh's comedy style is a blend of Seinfeld and Chapelle with his own personal flair-- overthinking observation in an intelligent storytelling structure with a dash of neurotic and self deprecation that makes him so easily relatable.

I still remember the story he told about sitting next to a person on a plane who ate a whole rotisserie chicken. Had me in stitches throughout the entire routine, his delivery was incredible.

Josh's comedy just feels so effortless, some pure observation without even having to write jokes.
He proves that quality and quantity are both possible.

JJ is the rising Star and i am sure he will rise to top ranks. Unless he decide to some thing silly like pulling his tool out where it was not welcome.

He is SO good. The next Chappelle-level comedian 100%. I get Carlin vibes too - the way he can so simply explain a tough subject and make it funny.

Josh Johnson was worth the drive to Dayton to see live I can’t think of another comedian I’d say that for right now.

Josh Johnson is way too underrated. He always kills it on The Daily Show, and I've seen some of his standup. It's damn solid
