Comedian John Crist To Release YouTube Special On May 23

One of the nation’s fast-rising comedians, John Crist, has built a career betting on his fans, becoming a viral sensation with more than 1 Billion video views, amassing a loyal fanbase of 5.7+ Million followers and selling-out multiple venues this year on his nationwide ‘Emotional Support Tour.’ Today (5.12), the Georgia native-turned-Nashville resident announces the release of his third special, ‘John Crist: Would Like to Release a Statement,’ available via YouTube on Tuesday, May 23.

Filmed live at the Majestic Theater in Dallas, TX, this 1-hour experience showcasing Crist’s hallmark southern-bred stand-up set is a can’t-miss, and no topic is off limits. Featuring laugh-out-loud moments that touch on everything from therapy sessions that made him reexamine his sexuality and not-so-politically correct sports’ mascots to his amusing family group texts, ‘John Crist: Would Like to Release a Statement’ is the latest from the rising comedian and follows the 2022 special ‘What Are We Doing?,’ which garnered more than 50 Million views online.

Named among Pollstar’s Top 100 Global Tours (2019, 197,000+ tickets sold), Crist continues to globally increase his presence and humor. In 2022, he not only released his second special, ‘What Are We Doing?,’ on YouTube, but also his best-selling, debut book “Delete That” (Penguin Random House). Additionally, Crist hosts a weekly podcast, “Net Positive,” which features special guests bi-weekly.
