[BONUS] Anthony Burch Tries Standup
🕑 Added 2025-07-30 17:00:13 +0000 UTCIn spring of the year 2025, Anthony attempted to do something he'd never done before:
Be funny. While standing.
This footage documents that attempt (...or rather, the third night of a successful run).
This video contains Profanity, Sexual Content, Ableism, and Discussion of Suicide.

“So that’s the end of the crowd work.” 🤣🤣🤣
Thaddeus Stoenner
Holy shit, I’m in love
Jocey
Absolutely hilarious. I annoyed the fuck out of my coworkers with my giggles.
Tom Amos
Genuinely the best stand up set I've seen in a very long time
Dwight Kellow
Really great stand-up! Had multiple laughter out loud moments!
David Martinez-Ross
❤️
Josh Bohrer
Genuinely really good
Audrey
obsessed with the fact that instead of any normal transition he just did a fucking DC joke, 100/10 I wish I could have gone to see it live
Orion
When I attempted to off myself I legit got hung up on by a crisis hotline (not trevor!!) And laughed so hard I started coughing up the pills. Many years of therapy and hard work and I'm glad to tell people i'm here to stay!! I'm a creature of spite, and if I were meant to be dead the universe should be better at pest control. I'm glad you're here too Anthony, your creativity inspires me and even in those dark times you are still worthy.
Chris Hutton
Sincerely very good
River Manning
Ohhh this was fuckin incredible, really hitting my niche of being a queer, polyamorous, mentally ill nerd 🙂↕️ I hope Anthony tours, I’d love to see this in the UK! 💞
Conrad Cowlrick
I rarely listen to/watch standup, sorry. Thanks for the nudge. Really enjoyed it
Tracie Hitter
I really needed to laugh today, and this made me laugh a lot.
jock (trippy) elton
So whens he coming to Australia? 🤣
Jye Hampton
Laughed pretty hard. I know you don't like praise, but I think you did great, and I'd like to see more.
Raf Jansen
This is so good, it's got me absolutely wheezing
Oliver Fulayter
I fucking wish the audience were me. This was great 👏 Thanks for keeping it real, even when you didn't get laughs. I like the dry humour. Hope to see you do more stand-up! Maybe pull a Beth and travel a little bit of places 👀?
Alias Aivan
made the mistake of watching this while on a plane with my eyes closed and got genuinely jumped scared
Cup of T-Viv
Not seeing any video for this? Just the art for Peachyville Horror
McCall
I'm glad you're here
Henry Rae
So how many sleeping pills does it take? Asking for a friend.
Kam Str
Omg this was really good actually the Batman thing paid off I wasn't sure where it was going I didn't expect it to be funny good job
M W
Listening to this over headphones in the dining room of my sharehouse. My housemates keep looking at me funny when I cack myself laughing out of the blue. Great show.
Matty Major
Ooohhh my goodness, this was SO DELIGHTFUL. Anthon, if you ever want to perform in Vermont (super appealing I'm sure) I'm sure Vermont Comedy Club would love to have you!
Pamphleteer
I found this oddly comforting, I'm in recovery for alcoholism and I sometimes make dark jokes about it, sometimes people have to use humor to process difficult things and this really spoke to me in that way
Georgie Curtis
This was MAGIC !! Thank you for sharing Anthony
Em Williams
Just wanted to share the amount of patrons right now is 69,969. I screenshotted it for evidence. Thank you for your time.
Rob Channon
Loved this, but video cut out after 38 mins and I couldn't get the rest to play anyone else have this?
Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden
Anthony Burch you are a NERDDOM TREASURE (I currently don't consider what this nation values as treasure) this stand-up was hilarious. I heard Matt Mercer name dropped dungeons and daddies inupcoming collaborations as well! I'm so happy to see you thriving
Rachel
There are too many things I liked about this to list it all. Thank you for uploading it here!
Secret Cat King
So good it makes me afraid you’ll stop dnd’ing and then for those of us in other states we’d only hear your voice like once a year! You’re too good. You could totally do this full time. I’d miss you.
Craig Beshears
Yessss I would’ve liked to see him come back out after rushing behind the curtain to tell one last Batman joke and letting the audience applaud him!
Kylie Lewis
I am so happy you exist. The world is better with you in it!
Joe F
Finally the tat reveal!
Clove
genuinely so fucking funny, turned my shit morning into a really good afternoon
Colin Kirk
This was fantastic! Referencing your notes reminded me of Marc Maron’s “Thinky Pain.”
Edward Sullivan
This made me laugh in a way I havent in a long time. This is killer
Ryley Henry
Good job Anthony.
jesse thompson
20/10!
Delightfully Joyful
It’s interesting what Anthony said about fantasy and representation of dwarfism. I actually started a series that addressed this slightly where a character thinks their meeting someone from the dwarf race and the character is so pissed and thinks their making fun of them and the main is taken aback thinking “shit yeah why did I act like people with dwarfism are another species, just cause I’m in a fantasy world.” It really is something we’ve let fantasy treat as okay
Cassie McElfresh
Amazing show man!!
Josh Hart
"Im just asking questions!" XD
Devon Hein
Laughing so hard on my way to HRR the men at MacArthur Park thought I was flirting with them! You did the damn thing!
Jenn R
I am so glad this was posted. It was great. The pivots were entertaining, the energy made me giggle - but the intercalation from beginning Google to end? Had me howling!!!
Everest
This fucking slapped
Lauren
Oh my god. I also have 5 cats and one person 😭😭😭
Tara
Fucking awesome!
Pure Coolguy
One of Anthony’s jokes made me sneeze and I scared my cat
Nathaniel Chow
No way this was only his 3rd time trying standup because he was killing it.
James Curtiss
I generally don’t love standup, but I’d pay good money to see Anthony
Zack Ayer
Well done! Ironically a lot of the time I was reminded of Louis CK because Anthony would pivot between really funny to really dark and then winning the audience back again by owning the awkwardness
Declan Garrity
You didn’t close on a coup de gras Batman date joke?!
CaptainThruster
I loved every second of this, love this style of humor aka dark as fuck 😂
Lijah Amason
Who knew I had so much in common with Anthony!? 🤣 ( Except I like his tattoo)
Bryce Kelly
Ant — wow buddy.
Anthony Burch
Fuck i should have done that
Barf Drinker
Ok? It can not be your taste, doesn’t mean you have to take a dig at Anthony in the Patreon comments he has literally said he reads.
Brendan
Fuck this was better than most of the shit I see through all my comedy podcasts. Bro has joke's
GrönHatt
Damn, you killed Anthony
Cr1ms0n
This is amazing. I am in a café, dying cause a couple is staring at me, confused why I am laughing in their general direction.
Sergio Muñoz Villegas
Anthony please do more stand up please I'll do anthing Anthony please
Tannictor
That was so great anthony. Anything your attached to may it be dungeons and daddies, hey riddle riddle, gunshoes and dragons I will follow you to the end!
nature
amazing
Tannictor
Omg yess! Just what I didn't know I was waiting for!
kooa
10/10 i listened to this like a podcast tonight while at the beach and had to keep making a show of looking at my phone screen so that the people around me knew i wasn’t just laughing at the sunset, henry’s favorite show
Mark Cormier
Absolutely incredible
Nathan Hicks
I shot myself in the foot by listening to this in the gym and having to stifle so much of my laughter. Honestly incredible!!
Tonkatsu
This was so fucking funny. I know you don't take compliments well but hopefully that's less the case with strangers.
Peter Rice
Man, I have learned a lot about Anthony today
IronRanger
Huh. Love the podcast but didn't even crack a smile at this
Harrison Lee
Did the "help on the way" on google tell you how many pills?
Ryan Phillips
GO 👏 ON 👏 TOUR 👏 👏 👏!!!!! This is awesome, well done Anthony!
Lexie Carr
Holy shit, this was amazing. Thank you so much for posting!
Nerdsome Noel
This was an absolute flipping gem. And here I was thinking I’d never get to see it, but I should have known. These daddies have never done me dirty before. I would proceed to directly complement Anthony but wish to be respectful, so I won’t.
Clare
Yay!!! Glad we get to see it.
ManicPixie
I’m gonna start saying “Why does it taste like a shoe?” and no one will get it 😭
ManicPixie
Same thought! 😂😂
Jacob Lynge
great watch, and actually good standup.
Tony Loch
I got to see it live and in person, and enjoyed every bit of it. I really wish I had gotten one get out of jail free card though.
Naught Joe
That fucking SLAYED! I really hope this isn't truely a one-off, but if it is, it was a hell of a note to go out on 🤘
Bob McCoog
I am so dumb... the first couple of jokes I'm going "Wait .... I've heard these before. How?" SMH Great set Anthony!
Staci Crouch
Amazing job! Super funny! Thanks for making it available to those of us unable to attend the show live ❤❤
Moriah Smith
That was beautiful!! And much more enjoyable than a lot of the stand up comedy on Netflix. Well done!!
Rebecca Pridmore
Oh it's my birthday present too! High-5!
Rebecca Pridmore
(we don't *all* find it boring, fyi lol)
Naught Joe
It's such a shame he's not happy about his tattoo, because it's honestly beautiful!
LuluPattinson
10/10
Jessica
Oh my GOD. This was so fucking hilarious, I was scream-laughing.
Xyta Midnyte
What a hecking treat! I wasn't expecting a chance to experience this at all and I'm so, so glad you've treated us. Freakin wheezing into my quinoa over here (largely because I don't know how to cook the stuff and I burnt it to shit, but hey; t'was a brilliant set too!).
Brock Dearden
This is awesome! When he was talking about Anime characters, I was expecting him to drop a callback: if you want to identify as Krillin.... I'm worried about you and I have a number you can call if you're under 24.
Sarah Bernard
This was incredible 💕 I'd love to see you in person for a set. Also, I'm glad you're here, Anthony.
Craig Beshears
Freaking killed it
Samantha Mann
The fact that Anthony did almost a FULL HOUR when most starting comedians aim for a tight 5 is just straight up gangsta shit. There were some solid bits in there, too! My favorite was the cats vs. dogs because it is 100% accurate
ADoubleEgg
So I think the highest praise i can give when listening to standup is when I'm dreading the "thank you so much for your time" line. I hope you continue to practice your stand up, because it was easily one of the best sets I've heard, and I would love to see more. But if this is the extent of your standup career, I'm glad I got to experience it, great job
Tyson Cecka
Really good
Anthony Bobadilla
Commenting because it is preferred.
Wesley Huggett
SO FUNNY!!!
Derek Kupper
This was fantastic until the Becca Scott slander (no attractive woman can explain board games?! HELLO!?)
Widget
when anthony’s self deprecation starts to get to you but then you realize he’s goated
Jammasterjordan69
This is grade a incredible Anthony Thank you for releasing to us! We love you
Kuko Creations
Ok, so the whole set was good, but the crowd work bit really had me wheezing 🤣
Richard
Lmao it's so funny that you can tell Beth is there 🤣🤣🤣
Diana
This is such a phenomenal birthday present 🤌🏾
Patrick Cronin
GOD IT MAKES ME HARD WHEN HE TELLS THE STORY AGAIN FOR A 3rd TIME 😩😩😩
Sally
I relate to this so much this was amazing thank you for sharing
Daryl Scott
Please do more, you’re way better than you think
Marissa Y
Genuinely curious as to how Tori would rate this set. (Also you know you listen to too much DnDads when someone in the crowd laughs and you're like "Oh, Beth is there")
Nikolaj Madsen
This is farfetched, I know, but Anthony please, please, please go on EFAP (YT podcast) and discuss The Last Jedi with them.
Ouchpaw
That’s my average experience listening to DnDads in public too 😏 it’s great
Larz Bracken
This was absolutely incredible.
sebs0448
I loved every single one of the Batman jokes
sebs0448
This was the best I wish to see more of Anthony stand up 🎉
Kitty Stryker
oh, I’m sorry that that’s been your experience with nonmonogamy, it definitely doesn’t have to go that way! But it’s also not for everybody, and a lot of people do it who maybe should go to therapy instead 😅
Christopher Hanbagaa
Fuck this is funny.
Cody Moriah
"Some of these aren't meant to make you laugh, they're just meant to make me happy." That's my and my dad's joke philosophy, too! He makes dumb puns, and I tease about 9/11. Humans are truly wonderful.
Gerry Morris
Loves the Sandman dig
Zac Ethington
Amazing
Alex Annje
I had to Google Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and I startled my cat awake with how loudly I snort laughed. 🙈
RedDragon27
Jesus loves you Anthony.
Joshua Nutter
*Lincoln Lee Wilson Voice* "it was funny... I uhhh... Laughed?"
Karina
You’re so good at everything, I’m so grateful you’re total shit at self harm. Great job, you sexy freak!
liam morin
i love how much of this came through in herme’s stand up, and i love that you included the batman jokes. this was very funny and not at all too fast lol
Jeff Stack
Fucking iconic set
DMAN
Incredible!
Hunter
Wild I love it!
Octavia MacIsaac
When you realize just how close Anthony is with his NPCs like Hermie. I am laughing so hard but my kid and spouse are sleeping, so I have a pillow 😂😂😂
Andrew Ingram
Thanks for sharing. I live no where near LA and was disappointed that I couldn’t go. Super glad it was posted here. Great set and thank you for being so open.
Rogzilla
Exactly what I expected: dark, occasionally uncomfortable but VERY funny.
Damana
I genuinely laughed out loud so many times. The Hermie jokes were the cherry on top
Dean Allard
I’m so so so glad that we finally got the recording up on the patreon. Was so upset I couldn’t physically go to the shows. So hilarious as usual.
rosequartz
I have been waiting for this!!
Abby Normal
I lol’d
PB
Anthony is just like my uncle
Sarah Beth
I’m so glad yall posted this! Thank you Anthony, this was hilarious!
Samglax the Destroyer of Worlds
Thank you so much for this gift!
Joe Whitehouse
This was really good!! I've been wanting to hear this ever since Hermie's stand-up in season 2
Kvasir's Blood
Holy shit. That was so damn good, Anthony! I wish we could get more but I'm so glad we got this! Ur the best!
Sophie Leonelli
My algorithm feeds me a lot of stand up clips, and I usually don't laugh out loud that much. This show made me slap my thighs for an hour straight!! Great job!!!
Marisa P
The hour flew by!
James Maiden
So glad you posted this. I was cracking up!
Matthew Dohmeyer
I had to show the end to my wife. I recorded a quick explainer video for a board game a few days ago and recently posted it. I am wearing a gray shirt (still) and there were trains in the background. Nailed me on that one! 😂😂
Cailin Humphrys
Absolutely loved this!
Bradly Harold
Fucking amazing. Great job.
Sylas Mison
God this was great stand up
Ricky Stapler
literally the best stand up i ever watched
Christopher Mihatsch
For someone who doesn't regularly do stand-up, you put together a solid hour of great material!
Rachel Stone
Commenting for posterity
MovieDefenders Podcast
Very funny!
Royal Wood
Anthony Burch. I’ve been doing stand up for 12 years. This is one of the best stand up hours i have seen from someone who doesn’t even consider themselves a comic. I’m doing a re-listen of Season 1, btw.
Douglas Underhill
Oh shit this is really good.
Austin Darnell
Holy shit you smashed that, stage awkwardness is a comedic weapon in the right hands and you played off yourself and the crowd beautifully hope to see more in the future :)
noa tsipin
An AMAZING day for people who thought Hermie should have won the stand up competition
Mel Gemmel
This is incredibly funny
MaeV.
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS A BIT AGO I DIDNT REALIZE IT WASNT OUT THANK U

Thanks man, this made my day
B3N DIAGRAM
Fucking wonderful. The bit about the poly groups is fucking spot on 🤣🤣🤣
Kim Jacobsen
That “well” joke made me laugh so hard.
Sheila Yeboah
Absolutely killed!
Jessica Gray
Soooooo… stand up comedy tour with stops in DC and Baltimore so I can laugh my ass off twice?
Caleb Jud
The Teletubbies lined KILLED me hahaha
Mike Rhine
SPOT ON with the poly guy bit...
Ed-E
I came in with no expectations and was blown away. 10/10. FYI polyamory is just 1 person in a committed relationship wanting to bang someone else, and the other person not wanting to lose them. The only winner is the 3rd who comes into the relationship. They get to experience financial security in a way that otherwise isn't possible as a millennial, and they get to have incredible sex from their now 2, sexual partners who've otherwise never rightfully explored eachother. Don't ask me how I know.
Adam Megnin
Anthony!!! That was amazing! Great job! (Even though you hate compliments)
Sarah Parkhurst
This was epic Anthony! I also deal with mental health issues (now medicated!) and am very open with it and listening to others be open with it is so refreshing and honest.
Rob Gibbons
Standing ✅ Be funny ✅
Bre Harris
This was a fun watch! Much love Anthony!
Dominick R. Guglielmo
You killed it Anthony, great job!
Jack Schauer
THIS IS AMAZING. you’re actually the goat Anthony
Drucilla Saxton-Wallace
That was quite good
Cody
hilarious but half of it just felt like virtue signaling tbh...
Madeleine
I am HOWLING this was hilarious
Kara Hostetler
This made me incredibly happy. From a fellow 30-something millennial polyamorous person...... there was a lot I could relate to and it made my entire day.
Binglebandit
Damn, right in all the feels. 🥹
Octavia MacIsaac
Thanks dndads for giving us access to this priceless standup
FriendlyNeighborhoodMichaelGuy
Turned off The Good Place mid episode to watch this. And that was the right call
Adriaan Reynolds
Congratulations!!!! You are amazing Anthony!! I was listening on my earphones (yes I’m old) and kept laughing out loud and watching people look at me strangely!!
Gotteswaise
That was so good! Thank you for sharing more of yourself and your comedy with us
S Rob
I don't even stop a relisten of Dungeons and Daddies to address the delivery notification of my mother's life saving medicine, but I INSTANTLY left the Chimera Fight from the Four Knights tournament to listen to this and I couldn't be happier with my decision. Kudos Anthony, that was great!
Kristopher Skelton
This was amazing. I cannot believe it was only your third time ever doing standup. Is there a clear photo of the back tattoo somewhere?
Jamie Burke
Anthony I know you hate compliments but god damn that was funny
Updog
Even though he won't once he reads this, I hope Anthony feels validated and appreciated and cherished. Thank you. You have changed my life. I will never open a new pair of shoes and not think about some guys dick.
Effectively Caito
Told everyone around me I was gonna be busy for the next 55 minutes 😂
G_the_D
Starting with the Trevor Project is perfect. Thanks for being you
Garrett McCown
This was great
Erika Auglis
Hi um, excuse me, pardon, loved this! But… where is the poster that you said Beth was going to make for this show?
Lauren
YAAAAY I'm so glad you gave this to us!
Fee the Fey Fairy
This was so good, I'm apparently denying climate change. And I'm considering listening to this again when I'm in labour 🤣 cause this was so funny and relaxing and I'm laughing way to hard and oversharing 🙈😅
WesKane, do the patron names seem a lil obsessed with Shaun's hormones
This was great, ya tickled me
rolypoly
Thank you so much for sharing this!!
Liz Smith
This was great, the crowd interactions were fantastic! The conversational tone and expressions paired well with the slightly awkward delivery of the more formulaic jokes. The whole performance felt intentional but not forced or overly practiced. Would definitely go to a show if it were in my area!
Daniel Bryn
This was brilliant.
StephBox
Aaaaaah thank you for posting this and also for trying standup!
GoblinGuy
I love this so much but the first joke being THE EXACT SAME JOKE he says as Hermie during the standup episode took me out I genuinely couldn’t stop laughing. Good job Anthony!
Virgil McClurken
Good job m8
Kaiberly Cournoyer-Rowland
I do not like stand up, normally. Good job Anthony :) I laughed a lot
Adam Standiford
Thank you, Anthony. 💚
Keith Robinson
I'm looking forward to it.

This is the funniest stand up set I've seen in so long
Jack the Ex-Stripper
Holy shit Anthony, that was awesome. Great job
Lemons
I need more of this
Michael H
This pretty good. Is not finishing pedo bit off with actually saying it’s bad weird? Yes. But I laugh.
D20_to_1 (I like them odds)
This was really good.
Annie Almonde
“Is this crimson or burnt sienna” made me howl out loud this is really good and I’m so happy I got to see it I didn’t think in a million years I’d get to see this 😭😭😭❤️ fuck yeah great start to my morning
Sido Hikami
I laughed so much I got the hiccups now
Tom L
I am 13 minutes in and this is already so much. Anthony you are an absolute treasure.
Margo Rubero
I have been dying for this to drop thank you!!! 🎉
Ian Francis
I love the fact that the Hermie jokes made it into the set
Sterling Turner
Thank the Lord, I thought I'd missed it.

Amelia Sabinske
Yipp fucking eee!!
Bo Joiner
Love you, Anthony
Maisie Gomer
Anthony always looks way less dorky than I anticipate. I love a good dork vibe, not meant as an insult! Its a weird compliment that sounds backhanded 😅
Kitty Stryker
"I’m not going to die without knowing my engagement numbers" is so fucking real and I love you for that

Thanks Dad!
