Looking for recommendations for stand-up comics on streaming video: G-rated preferred
A couple of weeks ago my wife and I spent a couple of days in Prescott, AZ with a couple; she's a retired comedian (and a shooter). They showed us some of their favorite comedians on Netflix and YouTube: Nate Bargatze, Greg Warner, guys like that. Since then we've also seen Jeff Allen's stuff; loved it, but I think we've heard all his jokes three times now.
I understand Jerry Seinfeld worked clean and was very funny; haven't tried tracking down his stand-up acts. Back in the day Bill Cosby was the best at this.
So I'd love to hear recommendations for funny guys/gals who work clean so my wife and I can both enjoy it. Needless to say, we have zero interest in current "woke" idiots who go for applause not laughs.

Jim Gaffigan, maybe more PG with a bit of PG13. Brian Regan Jeff Dunham
Mitch Hedberg was funny, but lots of drug references.

Sinbad. I don't recall him even swearing in his stand-up routines.

Jim Gaffigan was great until he went woke and gave the finger to his audience.

This. My son really liked him and told me to check him out. But, when I did, he was all politicized and woke. I said "pass".
I have not seen him for a while, but I think Brian Regan is hilarious. I must have listened to his "Stupid In School" bit a couple of dozen times yet it still makes me laugh out loud.

What is it about comedians of Irish heritage? I like Brian Regan and Kathleen Madigan.

Yeah, it's a venue in Provo, Utah.
Some of it is pretty good. The guy with the Late joke about his wife and stepkids is hilarious.
