John Crist Live!

John Crist is one of today’s fastest-rising stand-up comedians, with more than one billion video views and more than 7.9 million social media fans. He has sold out shows across the country and regularly charts among Pollstar’s Top 10 Global Touring Comedians. After selling out most of his 2025 U.S. “Jokes For Humans” dates, Crist launched a fall extension, which kicked off at Las Vegas’ Encore Theater and will visit cities including Austin, Louisville and Cleveland. In 2026, he will embark on his 30-plus-city “John Crist Live” tour, with stops in New York City, Nashville and more.

His latest comedy special, John Crist: Emotional Support, features clean humor and pop culture commentary. Filmed six miles from his childhood home in Lilburn, Georgia, it covers growing up Christian in the ’90s, family group texts and neighborhood Facebook page disputes. In its first three weeks, the special earned more than 2.1 million standalone views, while social media clips surpassed 20 million views.

The special follows a record touring year in 2024 and his 2023 special, John Crist: Would Like To Release A Statement, available on YouTube, which has more than 4.2 million views and over 200 million views across social media clips. His 2022 independently released special, What Are We Doing?, has more than 100 million views across platforms and is available to stream on Hulu.

Crist’s Net Positive Podcast regularly charts on Spotify and Apple’s top podcast charts and is filmed in downtown Nashville. Guests have included comedians Matt Rife, Leanne Morgan, Chelcie Lynn (“Trailer Trash Tammy”) and Trey Kennedy; musicians Michael W. Smith, Scott Stapp (Creed), David Crowder, Ernest, Tyler Hubbard, Chris Tomlin and Lauren Daigle; faith leaders Dave Ramsey, John Delony and Jenn Johnson; political and cultural commentators Brett Cooper, Michael Knowles, Clay Travis and Matt Walsh; and sports figure Kirk Herbstreit.
