Louis Katz performs punchline-heavy, New York–style stand-up with a unique blend of highbrow and lowbrow humor that’s been lovingly described as “cerebral filth.”Over the course of his career, Louis has been featured on NBC, HBO, and Comedy Central five times — including his own half-hour special and a memorable appearance on This Is Not Happening, which has since been viewed over 3 million times on YouTube. His album KATZKILLS was named one of the Top 5 Comedy Albums of the Year by Vulture.com, who called it “a raucous comedy party.” Louis’ first one-hour special was released on Epix in 2022 as part of the Unprotected Sets series, and his latest special, Present/Tense, was released independently on YouTube in late 2023, becoming an instant hit with over a million views in just a few months.
A true comedian’s comedian, Louis has earned praise from industry greats including Dave Attell, who called him “one of the best joke writers working today,” and Ali Wong, who said he’s “one of the funniest and most prolific comedians I know.” He’s also been featured twice on Marc Maron’s WTF Podcast, with Maron himself saying, “His album and special are hilarious.” But perhaps Doug Stanhope put it best: “Katz is funny to the point that Hitler would have given him a sleeper car on the train.”
If you like your dirty jokes smart and your smart jokes a little filthy, you’re going to love Louis Katz.
