Brad Williams’ latest stand-up special, Starfish, has gone viral on YouTube with over 7.5 million views, cementing his place as one of the sharpest, most original comedic voices working today. Currently selling out theaters around the world, Brad delivers high-energy performances that blend personal storytelling, razor-sharp punchlines, and an irresistible charisma that leaves audiences on their feet.
He first took the mic as a teenager and never looked back, racking up major TV appearances on The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Dave Attell’s Comedy Underground, and building a run of hit specials, including Showtime’s Fun Size and Daddy Issues. He’s also appeared in Netflix’s The Degenerates and Comedy Central’s This Is Not Happening.
Beyond the stage, Brad co-created and co-hosted the long-running hit podcast About Last Night with fellow comic Adam Ray, a fixture on the podcast charts throughout its five-year run. He’s also been a featured guest on some of comedy’s most influential platforms, including The Joe Rogan Experience, Your Mom’s House, This Past Weekend with Theo Von, Something’s Burning, Are You Garbage, and TigerBelly—introducing him to millions of listeners and further fueling his sold-out tours.
As an actor, Brad most recently has brought his comedic chops to TV series like Legit, Sam & Cat, Mind of Mencia, and Deadbeat, as well as films including Little Evil, Christopher Guest’s Mascots, and Reno 911: It’s A Wonderful Heist. He also made history as the first stand-up comedian in Cirque du Soleil’s 30-year history to headline a show, leading Mad Apple in Las Vegas to rave reviews. Brad will next appear in the highly anticipated film Spinal Tap 2, premiering September 2025.
Robin Williams once called him “Prozac with a head,” and it’s easy to see why—Brad doesn’t just tell jokes; he ignites a room. With fearless and inspiring observations on disability, relationships, sex, and race, he continues to win over audiences worldwide and prove that no topic—and no audience—is out of his reach.
