Felipe Esparza at The Comedy Connection

Felipe Esparza is a Mexican-American comedian, actor, and podcaster known for his irreverent, working class, “everyman” style of stand-up comedy, his laid back attitude and his familiar phrase, “what’s up fool?”.

Despite his self-proclaimed laziness, over the last 30 years, Felipe has been very busy, managing to put together 5 stand-up comedy specials for Netflix and HBO (including one in Spanish), hosting 3 different, popular, weekly podcasts – one of which has been around for 12 years so far, winning NBC’s Last Comic Standing back in 2010 and having recurring roles on series such as “The Eric Andre Show”, “Superstore”, and “Victor and Valentino”. He’s also had a few appearances in films including “Blue Beetle” with Xolo Mariduena and George Lopez, “You People” with Eddie Murphy and Jonah Hill, “Guest House” with Pauly Shore and “7th & Union” with Omar Chaparro.

Felipe is currently on the last leg of his “At My Leisure” world tour, which wraps in 2026. He continues to tour theaters and comedy clubs all over the world and can’t wait to get home to his wife and dogs.
