Stand-up comedian Paul Virzi is back with his third full comedy special, Reasonable Man. In this new hour, Paul holds nothing back and delivers brutally honest and hilarious takes on the losing battle that is arguing with women, Italian stereotypes in Hollywood, new Barbies, and his frustration with young pilots.
Having already produced specials with Comedy Central and Netflix, Paul goes for a more grassroots approach to his newest collection of material. Not having to worry about the industry red-tape or pleasing suits behind a desk, Paul gives an unshackled, no-holds-barred, “anything goes” performance that fans and peers alike are calling his best work yet.
Paul’s debut hour-long comedy special, “Bill Burr Presents Paul Virzi: I’ll Say This,” premiered on Comedy Central in November 2018 and is available to stream on CC.com. A clip from the special was featured on Comedy Central’s TikTok stand-up page on May 4, 2020 and currently has over 5 million views and 1.3 million likes. Paul’s second special “Nocturnal Admissions” is set to be released in early 2022 and will be Pete Davidson’s directorial debut.
His 2015 debut comedy album, “Paul Virzi: Night At The Stand,” was #1 on iTunes and reached #4 on Billboard’s Top 100. Paul has appeared on TruTV’s “Comedy Knockout,” AXS TV’s “Gotham Comedy Live,” The NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football,” and he has written for ESPN’s “ESPY Awards.” Paul is a regular at the prestigious Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal and performed at the SXSW Festival in Austin, TX.
Paul grew up in the suburbs, outside of New York City. He loves his family, cigars and having pointless sports arguments with his friends.
