About

I have adored Emo Philips since the UK in the 80's. He is hilarious. Eric Idle, May 12, 2018 Emo is the most brilliant joke-writer in the game. You HAVE to see him live. Hes amazing. Patton Oswalt, February 1, 2022 What a joy. What a complete joy. Astounding. There really is no better joke writer and thats the smallest part of whats great. Penn Jillette, July 23, 2025 Emo Philips... absolutely killed. Rolling Stone (Carnegie Hall review), October 30, 2022 Described by Jay Leno as the best joke writer in America, Emo Philips has performed over seven thousand stand-up shows in comedy clubs, colleges and theaters, including a multi-week run at the Playhouse Theatre in Londons West End. In 2018 and 2022-2023, Emo toured with Weird Al Yankovic (over two hundred concerts across three continents); Emo will forever remember the standing ovation he received at Carnegie Hall.
