Really clever comedian. Greer understands people, prejudice, and expectation at a super high level.
His ability to project an entire character just with his voices is spectacular.
This happiness this video has brought me is crazy. This comedian is hilarious.

I bartended at a comedy club in nyc for a few years. Greer Barnes would regularly get a standing ovation! Hands down one of the best comics alive. I always stopped what I was doing to listen to he sets. Even if I heard them before they would always have me in tears.
Greer Barnes is one of the GOATS of comedy! Every clip I’ve ever seen of him is HILARIOUS. Let’s make this go viral!!!
Clicked on the vid the second I saw the name lol love this guy 👏🏾👏🏾😂
He is special and deserves a SPECIAL.
First time hearing this guy. He sounds like a professional book narrator, looks like a video game character, seems like a great guy to hang out with, great at acting things out, does spot-on impressions, and his jokes are so hilarious and so well timed that I thought I needed more and only 4 minutes had gone by, which made me really happy. I replayed most parts of this video so many times that this was basically a 20-minute set for me, and I still laughed each and every time. Thanks Don't Tell Comedy for bringing this gem to more people. Beautiful set!
That ending was top class 😂😂 "he's coming this way, heyy come on..."
The grass is green, the sky is blue and Greer Barnes kills. Some things never change
Anyone that can make people laugh this hard without extreme profanity or vulgar jokes is an incredibly funny human being, in my opinion. 😂❤

Love this guy.... He's so underrated
Saw him in a NYC club this past winter. He leveled the place, and even took a photo outside w me after. Extremely cool dude
This is the best set I've seen on Don't tell so far. He's fantastic with accents, the delivery is phenomenal and the man has swag. Can't wait to see the rest of his work.

1st time I've seen this guy, 13 minutes of none stop laughter
Greer "I smoke a little bit of weed a lot of the time" Barnes!!!!😂😂😂
I love watching him perform and I'm happy to see him on Don't Tell. He did change up some of the jokes but for the most part these have to be at least 10 years old now. I still laughed but man it would be great to hear some brand new stuff from him
I love Greer Barnes man, wish he could show up more.
Laughter is the greatest medicine on Earth😂😅🎉 keep them laughing
Unsung legend hope he puts out a special soon
THIS is comedy gold. I love Don't Tell Comedy because the comedians have to actually WRITE jokes. This trend toward excessive crowd work is not working for me. A little crowd work here and there but this kind of writing is so fresh, so unexpected, and hilarious. I love this channel and this comedian is one of my many faves. Seen him before.
As bummed as I am to hear him recycle material from 20 years ago, I'm so psyched to hear him doing stand up again. That Keebler elves joke still cracks me up to this day 😂😂😂
