    I've been lucky enough to see both perform live and each time, my cheeks still hurt the next day from smiling and laughing! :)

    I think he is funny, but I can only take his comedy in small doses because while I am laughing when I am listening to him it depresses me; a little too much realism!

    1. George Carlin- The best there ever was the best there ever will be, a legend.

    2. Louis CK - He deserves the same stage but only opening for George Carlin

    3. Joe Rogan - He is interesting

    4. Dave Attell

    5, Robin Williams - Nothing like listening to a crack head manic for an hour

    6. Bill Cosby - Obviously not nearly as edgy as the people above but for G rated comedy he earns a place in my heart.
