It's our annual visit from one of stand-up comedy's best. An all-time-great joke writer, Dave is at home in comedy clubs. He built a loyal following by barnstorming the country with his brand of "very adult" humor, and his audiences got even bigger after his cult-favorite travel show, "Insomniac." Dave continues to be a presence on TV -- including his hit Netflix specials "Hot Cross Buns" and "Bumping Mics" -- while constantly writing new material and taking it on the road.
