 On the list. Smartest people in the world are genuine & can make others laugh.

 Patrice was the most genuine funny person ever I think. He always told it like it is.

 He was great.  That’s a skill not many have. 
Early Bill Burr is just pure genius.  I’ve followed him since mid 90’s when I saw him do a small show in a CT club.  Never laughed harder in my life.

 I’m not a huge fan of his. Haven’t seen much of his stuff.  Little angry & political for me. 

Nick Swardson is funny as fuck too.  Older stuff.

 The Swardson episode on Norm's podcast was great 😂
