Joe Dombrowski

Recently named one of Variety’s Top 10 Comics to Watch, Detroit native Joe Dombrowski first caught the world’s attention in 2017 with a viral April Fools’ Day spelling test prank that led to multiple appearances on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Don’t get it twisted, though—it takes 20 years to be an overnight sensation! Joe’s been performing stand-up since his third-grade talent show, and he hasn’t stopped since.

Today, Joe tours internationally with material that highlights his marriage, being a new dad, his accidentally hilarious parents and unforgettable years as an elementary school teacher. His comedy has been featured on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal, the New York Comedy Festival, and Netflix Is a Joke Fest.

Joe is also the co-host of the hit live comedy/game show My Straight Friends, running monthly at The World Famous Comedy Store in Los Angeles and Emerald City Comedy Club in Seattle. Joe currently resides in Seattle, Washington where he hopes to run for Mayor sometime. And by Mayor he means PTA president.
