A new month begins tomorrow and with it, new reasons to laugh! Summer is almost over, and unfortunately, 2020 has been quite a year. Despite the adversities, Latinx comedians are bringing humor to your living room so you can spend the upcoming months laughing with your loved ones.

As soon as September 1, Netflix is premiering a new show starring stand-up comedian Felipe Esparza. During this show, the comedian digs deep into his past in his first Netflix Original comedy specials, Felipe Esparza: Bad Decisions and Felipe Esparza: Malas Decisiones, filmed as two separate performances – one in English and one in Spanish.

Once you are done watching Esparza's show, most likely you are going to end up craving more; therefore, with the help of our friends from Netflix, we enlisted stand-up specials featuring other Latinx comedians:
