My favorites:
Seinfeld-saw him live. hardest ive ever laughed
Ron White-best of the redneck comics. I know a lot of rednecks
Rock-HBO 90s specials were great
Burr-Only white comic with balls. Says a lot of non PC stuff but probably gets a pass being married to a black woman.
Tom Segura: not a goat but Iike Ron white I identify with a lot of his material

I know it’s a reach, but in my mind Doug Stanhope is right up there with all of those guys

Atell is the most underrated stand up of all time

Ron White
I find him funny but he’s been telling the same jokes forever. Go listen to his early stuff, it’s the jokes only in a twang while wearing a cowboy hat. He’s definitely polished his act over the years.
His Dr. Phil and squirrel man jokes are two of the funniest stories I’ve ever heard

My top 5 are not necessarily my favorites. Really like Bill Burr and John Pinette. But Eddie Murphy’s bit about Aunt Bunny and the family BBQ. Is probably my all time favorite

Rodney Dangerfield #1-5

His stand up wasn't great? You serious? I even listed one of his stand up bits among my favorites all time.
When it comes to stand up, Andy Kaufman's work is similar to experimental films in movies. Not everyone will get them, but they are still brilliant.

There is a good reason why he is listed as one of the best comedians of all time, but never as one of the best stand ups of all time.

Carlin
Chapelle
White
Pryor
Macdonald
No particular order. The hardest I've ever laughed is probably Ron White's Dr. Phil story and Pryor's recounting of his heart attack and setting himself on fire while freebasing.

We'll have to agree to disagree because I think his stand up is way better than his television stuff.
I've watched the man intentionally bomb a stand up act for 7 minutes just so he could pretend to have a melt down on stage that morphed into a song.
I've watched him do his stand up act in a foreign language for over 5 minutes, acting as if the audience is responding normally to him.
He once started reading a book on stage, when he got booed for dragging it out for too long, then started to play a recording of him reading the same book.

Richard Pryor and George Carlin in the top two spots for sure for me. I'd include Robin Williams and Ron White in the top 5. Not sure of the final place. Cheech and Chong had some good stuff on albums back in the day, but I can't say I've ever seen them do stand up technically.
