Alonzo’s comedy career started as a doorman at the Hollywood Laugh Factory. Since then, he’s done alright. His story is featured in the documentary "Right to Offend: The Black Comedy Revolution."

A regular panel member on NPR’s "Wait Wait...Don’t Tell Me!" and host of the "Wait Wait Live Comedy Tour," Alonzo Bodden has been making audiences around the country laugh for more than 20 years.

The title of his latest special produced by Helium Comedy and released on YouTube is “ Stupid Don’t Get Tired” where he points out stupidity on the micro and macro level in life.

In his stand-up special, "Heavy Lightweight," he goes from heavy topics like slavery, politics and the #MeToo movement, to lightweight topics such as millennials, yoga pants and Taco Bell. He likes to mix it up and hopes that audiences will join him for a laugh and a think or two.

His first big comedy break came when he was on the “New Faces of Comedy” showcase at the Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal, but it was as the season three winner of NBC's "Last Comic Standing," where Alonzo was first introduced to America.

Since then, he has starred in two comedy specials for Showtime: "Historically Incorrect" and "Who’s Paying Attention." His most recent TV appearance was on the CBS sitcom “Ghosts." He’s also made appearances on ABC’s "Dr. Ken" and "Fresh Off the Boat," "Dr. Phil," "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Late Night with Conan O’Brien" and "Californication."

He hosted the live touring version of Family Feud, the Just For Laughs comedy awards show and Just For Laughs Bermuda and is the resident comic for the LA Press Club Dinners.
