BIOGRAPHy

Chris Distefano

Chris Distefano is one of today’s hottest names in comedy. Chris first burst onto the scene as a standout on MTV’s Talking Heads franchise Guy Code/Girl Code, with Popsugar naming him the ”Funniest Guy on MTV”. He became the first stand-up comedian to sell out both the world-famous Radio City Music Hall and the Theater at Madison Square Garden on consecutive nights in 2023. In 2022, Chris was selected by Jimmy Kimmel to host Jimmy’s latest TV venture, Super Maximum Retro Show, for ViceTV. Fresh off appearances on The Late Show with David Letterman and Late Night with Seth Meyers in 2019, Chris released his first full-length special, Size 38 Waist, on Comedy Central. The special perfectly captured his Brooklyn-born edge and nice-guy charm. His first special, Size 38 Waist (2019), is currently on YouTube. His second special, Speshy Weshy, premiered on Netflix in May 2022 to critical acclaim. His much-anticipated third special, It’s Just Unfortunate, released in February 2025 as the fourth installment of Hulu’s stand-up Hularious series. When Chris isn’t on stage, you can catch him in his element recording his wildly popular podcast History Hyenas with Yannis Pappas on YouTube and Patreon.
