Lucas Zelnick

Lucas Zelnick is a New York City-born-and-based stand-up comedian who turns his privileged upbringing into punchlines. With a sharp delivery and a high joke-per-minute ratio, Lucas has carved out a distinct voice that’s resonating online—amassing over 100 million views and more than 500,000 followers across Instagram and TikTok.

In 2022, Lucas hit the road, selling out 8 shows at Zanies Chicago and appearing at SF Sketchfest, as well as on Amazon Prime Video’s Sports Talk. Then came the breakout: in 2023, Zelnick headlined the New York Comedy Festival, taped a secret set with Don’t Tell Comedy, and made his Comedy Central debut on Season 14 of Comedy Central Stand-Up Featuring.

He also somehow has an MBA from Stanford—but don’t hold that against him.
