Michael Palascak

Suburban-born stand-up Michael Palascak seems like, for lack of a better term, a stand-up guy. He’s nice, charming, and—by virtue of still living with them—is close with his parents. He’s been working the local scene for a bit now, but has been garnering national recognition as of late, including spots onThe Tonight Show With Jay Leno and Late Show With David Letterman, as well as a finalist bid in CMT’s Next Big Comic contest. His actual stand-up is nothing groundbreaking—jokes about his parents, jobs, an old car he used to drive—but it’s all pleasant and funny enough to make him one to watch on the national circuit.
