On a stand-up kick lately

I've been listening to a lot of stand-up comedy lately, mainly as background noise for when I'm working. I talk to other people in my profession and they say they need silence to concentrate and can't even write with the TV on, but, man, I hate silence. Why put up with silence when you can listen to music? Or the TV?  Or in my case, stand-up comedy?

So, some of the great acts I've been spinning in my harddrive while writing have been:

• Nick Swardson's "Party"
• Jim Norton's "Monster Rain"
• Michael Ian Black's "I am a Wonderful Man"
• Jim Gaffigan's "King Baby"

Any suggestions for me?
