Overview

I am a San Francisco comedian living in Sonoma county . I produce a monthly successful comedy show in SF called "It's Just 2 Minutes" which has been going for over 4 years. I have been featured in comedy festivals such as the Sacramento Comedy Festival, The San Diego Comedy Festival, The Ventura Harbor Comedy Festival and the 10,000 Laughs Festival.

My comedy a high energy, working class which leads me to be comfortable in front crowds from every walk of life. Topics range from deeply personal stories to absurdist observations on the mundane. I have over 5 years of improv experience prior to stand up so i think well on my feet. I am able to work clean upon request.

Consistently hilarious

I've booked Josh for several shows in town including a large fundraiser for the Movember foundation. He delivered as per usual with his unique brand of manic energy and clever writing. He also was very professional during the post-show meet and greet with the comics and select audience members. Book him, even if you don't have a show.

A Terrific Host

Josh Argyle was the host for a Comedy Hour at Jambalaya's in Arcata, CA. He really held the show together, entertaining the audience and keeping cohesion among the stand up routines. He was hilarious and professional at the same time

Very Funny Guy !

Josh is so funny. He is spot on with his social commentary and personal life observations. A true professional. Josh's connection and rapport with the audience makes his shows really special.

No technical services needed. A mic and a decent light are preferable but not a deal breaker. I have preformed mic(less) before and it went great.
