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, Tony Baker covers everything from his ideas about how to improve the Oscars to his thoughts on what’s really going on inside Areal 51 on Stand-Up On The Spot where comedians go up with no prepared material and riff off of audience suggestions.
In addition to being seen performing at the hottest comedy clubs around the country and organically making millions of people laugh worldwide with his legendary viral voiceover videos on social media, Tony Baker’s comedic skills have landed him on the big screen and television: finalist on NBC’s The Last Comic Standing (Season 8 & 9 ), NBC’s The Carmichael Show (Season 2), HBO’s All DEF Comedy (Season 1), Trutv’s Standup/storytelling showcase, Laff Mobb’s Laff Tracks, the Academy Award-nominated movie Whiplash and his 2018 debut Comedy special Scaredy Cat (iTunes/Google Play).
Affectionately called “Your favorite comedian’s ‘Favorite comedian’”, Tony Baker’s comedy has taken on a movement of its own and his many fans can attest to that by easily quoting a few of his popular “Bakerisms”. So feel free to “Get In On This” and “Feel Every Piece” of the laughter that Tony Baker has to offer.
