Stand-Up on the Spot with Jeremiah Watkins is a monthly showcase where high-profile stand-up comedians perform completely improvised comedy material in front of an electric live audience inside legendary venues.
Recently, comedian JR De Guzman brings his guitar on stage with him and covers everything from the current popularity of Jeffrey Dahmer to the seriousness of women’s rights on Stand-Up On The Spot where comedians go up with no prepared material and riff off of audience suggestions.
He has shared the stage with Tim Allen, Margaret Cho, Daniel Tosh, Jerrod Carmichael, Iliza Shlesinger, and more. Winner of 2016 Stand-up NBC & named as a prestigious “New Face” at Just for Laughs 2017, you can catch his quarter hour Netflix special on “The Comedy Lineup,” and catch him on Coming to the Stage Season 2 on Hulu, Comedy Central’s Kevin Hart Presents: Hart of the City, and MTV’s Acting Out. Also, check out his debut album on Sirius XM Radio’s Laugh’s USA which debuted #1 on iTunes and Billboard.
