This is one of the most unique moments you’ve ever had in a public quiet place, and you’ll laugh your head off every minute.
Stand-up comedian Bret Raybould has spent a lot of time in the public library, which inspired his latest comedy special, Live At The Library.
Currently in the running for best introduction to a comedy special in 2025, Raybould delivers a surprise that no one will ever see coming, opening the special with a comedy sketch alongside the famous and often infamous adult film star/entertainment personality Lisa Ann.
Instantly gaining the viewers’ full attention, Bret opens his set with an introduction from his favorite librarian and goes on to keep the live audience hilariously entertained as he shares a variety of stories about break-ups, sex toys, Tucker Carlson, being in his 30s, and much more.
Bret Raybould: Bret Raybould is a comedian, writer, and actor based in New York City. In 2020, he released his debut hour stand-up special entitled “Bret Raybould Retires From Comedy,” in which he did in fact retire from stand-up comedy.
The album version of this special went #1 on iTunes, and got its worldwide debut on SiriusXM’s comedy channels.
Why did he retire? Well, you can watch the special (available for free on his YouTube channel) or you can keep reading this bio. Ya see, deep in his heart, he harbored a secret: he wanted to be a singer. So, one day, he crafted the defining record of the 2000s: Bret On Bublé, a jazz masterpiece that covers the career-spanning journey of another fantastic – though lesser – jazz impresario, Michael Bublé. “This was both a tribute and a challenge to the Great Bublé,” Bret says. “It was my way of saying ‘I respect what you’ve built, but I’m coming for your throne.” Unfortunately, Bret had severely miscalculated his finances, and had to come out of his comedy retirement one month later to pay the bills. Bret is also the World’s First Publicly-Traded Comedian. That’s right.
Bret launched BretTrade.com, a trading platform where people would be allowed to buy/sell shares of BretCoin.
To start, he went to market with an IBO – Initial Bret Offering – of 100,000 shares valued at 50 cents per share, giving him a market cap of $50,000. If you want to invest in comedy’s favorite son/jazz’s heartbreak king, you can buy BretCoin at BretTrade.com.
