MICHAEL PALASCAK is a comedian who grew up in Wabash, Indiana, began his career in Chicago, and now resides in LA. He has performed on both The Late Late Show with James Corden and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, along with appearances on A Little Late with Lilly Singh, Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, Conan, has a Comedy Central Half Hour special, and was a Top 5 Finalist on Last Comic Standing, where one judge claimed, "this is a guy that could star in a sitcom."
Consistently writing and performing, Michael recently released both a new album, The Internet Live through 800 Pound Gorilla Media and a new stand-up special on the Dry Bar app, 1984, available for free streaming.
Drew Hunt of The Chicago Reader wrote about Michael, "In a lot of ways, he represents the ideal antidote to the sort of unbridled cynicism that pervades much of contemporary stand-up." Michael's optimism continues in the new National Lampoon series, The Bright Side, where he takes a positive stance on a negative topic streaming on YouTube.
