Let's Talk About Alonzo Bodden

I love great comedians and can appreciate a well-executed comedic performance. However, like most people, there's a special place in my heart reserved for a few comedians. At present, my favorite comedians are Dave Attell, Bill Maher, Kathy Griffin, and Dave Chapelle. I'm so tempted to declare Bill Maher the funniest man on the planet, but my heart belongs to Dave Attell. His humor may not be for everyone, but the man writes amazing material, delivers great performances, and knows how to interact with his audience. He has it all.

There's room in my heart for new comedians. In fact, I'm actively trying to find a new group that represents my generation. We do have a voice in comedy, but I'm still searching. While looking for the next big thing, I occasionally come across various outstanding comedians. And this post is dedicated to one such individual. His name is Alonzo Bodden, winner of the 3rd season of Last Comic Standing. To be honest, I'm not a die-hard Alonzo fan. However, there's no question he has some great qualities. For starters, he commands respect for various reasons. He always looks good, but, more importantly, he's an intelligent and well-spoken man. If you're more into physical comedy, then Alonzo isn't the comedian for you. But, in a world of cliches and trite routines, his material is often sharp, creative, and hilarious. I have high hopes for Alonzo. I hope he continues to grow as a comedian.
