That Guy Josh

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

If one were to describe me, they might do so as such:An unabashed dork, Josh Gondelman consistently earns the right to hang out with the cool kids by making them laugh until they snort milk out their noses. Josh blends a sharp and quirky sense of humor with a genuine good nature, the result of which is a hilarious and accessible blend of “some holds barred” comedy. Josh is the comedian that your grandmother would love, even if she didn’t get the jokes. Josh just finished his degree in English and Creative Writing at Brandeis University, and he performs standup, sketch, and improv comedy at clubs, colleges, and theaters all over the country. Josh Gondelman. He can talk smart without sounding smarmy. He can talk family without sounding familiar. And he can talk sex without being sexy. Wait. Scratch that last one. He’s very sexy. Just don’t tell grandma.

I'd like to meet:

Geez Louise-iana

So this morning I was trying to look up the Louisiana Purchase on Wikipedia, but I forgot the word "Wikipedia." The only way I remembered it was by describing it in my head: "It's...like...an encyclo...

Horrorshows!

In the past, I have performed at many hilarious comedy shows. Some of them were hilarious only in retrospect. For examples:1. The time I performed at West Point two years ago when we all performed ...

No More Mr. Nice Guy

I feel like I'm not tough, and I think that the one thing that tough guys have that I do not have, is a totally bitchin' nickname. So I came up with a list of nicknames that I think could kick my bad...
