For folks (you know who you are) who like their comedy with a side of very very real realism.

Yes. I love the Sound of Music too. And also. The Onion is not wrong here, ya'll. Also love the dryness of the narrator's commentary

I just don't even...this makes me laugh every time I watch it. And I've watched it so many times, it should illegal. And if you watch the video, you'll understand the illegal bit. You don't need the visual to get the jokes here.

This is literal gallows humor at times; Caitlin Doughty is a mortician and writer and her commentary videos are always about some aspect of death dying or post death care and also always always funny. This is a recent video but her back catalog is hu...

Podcasts! All the podcasts!

I know I know, not everyone is a podcaster listener (why we aren't all podcast listeners? That I DON'T know) so I'm putting them all in one place.

Want to hear super smart, hilarious women with awesome banter talk about acting as guinea pigs in their own social experiments, putting different friend making strategies to the test? This is the right podcast for you. This podcast was formerly known...

I love this podcast, which is all about Wellness and weight loss, debunked and decoded. The way hosts Michael Hobbes and Aubrey Gordon use research and comment on silliness in the wellness and weightloss world is music to my ears! Well not actually ...

This is (despite being a comedian) the only comedians chatting podcast I listen to. If combining Fortune Feimster, Mae Martin and Tig Notaro together and having them chat both about a designated subject a prominent guest asks about doesn't sound like...

There's a lot of folks who could talk about scams and leave you depressed. NOT Laci Mosley. She's a comedian (I think she's maybe also in iCarly?) and a writer and genuinely hilarious person who--spoiler alert--sometimes takes the side of the scammer...

If you've probably seen "reading mean tweets" on Late Night and this is a variation on the theme...but there's a million more of these type of videos available because folks LOVE to hate comment. I included this because Hannah Alonzo, the content cre...

If smart people comically expressing surprise at the world around them, sounds fun to you, this is your genre. I especially love this content creator who moved from London to small town Ohio. He pokes very gentle fun at American culture and use of la...

I love watching & listening to internet commentary about the internet, mostly because it's easier and less time consuming than than keeping up with the actual internet. D'angelo is one of the brightest and funniest, and his dry understated humor ...

Answers in Progress is trying to remove the stigma from learning (or I guess, not knowing stuff) as an adult. While mostly this channel isn't going to have you ROTFL (does anyone even say that anymore) there are some very funny moments, and the uniqu...

Let One Go is a parody of Let It Go from Frozen and it's about exactly what you think it is. If you're tired of Let It Go (every parent in the Disney -touched world and probably beyond) and/or you want to make an eight year old laugh, this will be a ...

I mean, the creators aren't wrong: everybody does indeed have a butt! Or something like a butt in the case of a snake I guess.

The video for Weird Al's classic parody song is cute, but you don't need to watch to listen and enjoy. Also, it might send you down a Weird Al rabbit hole!

Am I allowed to involve non bathroom humor here? Yes I am, I'd just prefer not to. Also, if you're a nurse or other person who serves folks in a busy nonprofit capacity, this is 100 percent relatable! Or that's just me?
