JOSH RENCHER is a comedy writer and stand-up performer best known for his non-sequitur, nonsensical wit and earnest delivery. His unique observations and succinct writing style have merited frequent comparisons with such unconventional humorists as Steven Wright and Jack Handey, but with an organic sensibility and affability that's unmistakably his own.

In 2010, Josh created the The Frolic Show, one of the most talked about and highly regarded live comedy experiences in Los Angeles. The Frolic Show earned positive reviews for its consistently stellar lineups and fresh presentation, while regularly attracting such rare drop-ins as Louis CK and Demetri Martin.

Lauded by peers for his highly original material and driven by his desire to connect with audiences through shared experience and laughter, Josh performs regularly at comedy clubs, festivals, and alternative venues from Los Angeles to New York City. He is also the very proud father of two amazing children. Three total.
