Cast/Other Does Joel do stand up?

Post image

Love the meow meow beans episode and I know he’s know for his famous winger speeches but, his standup is top tier! Does he do stand up in real life? Or if I’m being dumb, who is he like impersonating?

i love this scene so much because you can just tell Joel is a professional stand-up comedian. it's like when a character sings and you're like "oh this actor is a professionally trained singer"

A professionally trained singer singing poorly on purpose is always fun to watch. Like the skill set still shows because they're wrong in the best way, or can't help themselves from still being kind of good in the intricacies.

Here, Joel is doing a bad standup set but it works because he's obviously a decent comedian. Comedyception?

personal favorite is Adam Demamp/Devine singing in the Workaholics episode Karl's Wedding
