If you haven’t heard the name Josh Pickles, it’s time to get familiar. With his razor-sharp wit, charismatic presence, and uniquely offbeat style, Josh is fast becoming one of the most exciting new voices in comedy today.
Born and raised in the Midwest, Josh started performing open mics in college bars, slowly developing a comedic rhythm that blends observational humor, relatable millennial experiences, and the occasional wild improv moment that leaves audiences in stitches.
From Humble Beginnings to National Buzz
Josh’s rise hasn’t been overnight — and that’s what makes it so relatable. Starting with TikTok skits during the lockdown days of 2020, Josh built a loyal following through quirky characters and hilarious real-life commentary.
His big break came when a clip from his “Job Interview from Hell” series went viral, racking up millions of views across platforms. This newfound fame earned him invites to perform on comedy showcases in New York, L.A., and even a surprise feature on a Netflix comedy roundtable in 2024.

And it works. Whether he’s joking about ordering kale in Kansas or being ghosted on Hinge, there’s always a core of emotional truth wrapped in humor.
