Originally from Swampscott, Joe Medoff started comedy while attending Emerson College in Boston, where he was a finalist in the Boston’s Funniest College Comic Contest. He moved to Chicago in 2018. Since then, he has worked gigs at comedy clubs such as Zanies, the Laugh Factory, Mark Ridley’s Comedy Club, Skyline Comedy Club, and Laugh Boston. He has been invited to perform at comedy festivals all around the country, such as the Big Sky Comedy Festival in Montana, the Seattle International Comedy Competition, Omaha Comedy Festival, Madison Comedy Week, Boston Comedy Festival, and Motor City Comedy Festival, among others. He has worked with comedians such as Nate Craig, Matthew Broussard, Emma Willman, Raanan Hershberg, and Ben Bailey. He has written for outlets such as Funny or Die and Fitz Games. He currently produces his own show, Discount Therapy.
His comedy has been described as modern and well-rounded, ranging from observational to personal to topical. He will almost certainly make jokes about the Liberty Tree Mall.
