Welcome to my website.

Hey, my name is Joe Charles and I’m a stand-up comedian living in beautiful Southern California.  I’ve been doing this stand-up thing for a while now and I’m still trying to figure out what I’m doing on stage and how to do it the best I can.

My stand-up career has taken me across the country and halfway around the world.  I’ve met a lot of funny people and, unfortunately, a lot of shitheads in this business.  But the best thing comedy has done for me is: it has given me purpose.  It gives me a reason to wakeup everyday to try again.

It really is therapeutic.  The experience of stepping on stage and making a connection with a group of strangers is something special.  Whether I’m making them laugh, sad, angry, frustrated, happy, content, etc., it’s all addictive.

The trick is to do this and remember you’re still a comic and these people are trying to laugh, have a good time and forget about their own miserable bullshit when they come see your self-righteous ass.  It’s a very complex game to play.

Anyway, I love to make people laugh and if you’re a fan – thank you – I mean that sincerely.  Send me an email through my Contact page or click on Bio to learn more about me.
