On New Year's Eve 2025, I performed two sold out stand-up comedy shows at The New Vic Theatre in Santa Barbara, California. The second show was almost entirely improvised, and was filmed with a few cameras, on literally zero budget, just intending on maybe releasing a few social media clips. But the show was a real blast, and right as I got off stage I thought "I should release this as a crowd work special. So that's what I just did!
I think some laughter would be nice for all of us to ring in the new year.
This is the surprise-Beyonce-album-drop of comedy. (If you know nothing about comedy or music.) But even if you don't, I think you'll enjoy this 37 minutes.
It's called "Ben Gleib: Happy New Year".
If you do enjoy it, please share and leave comments!
And stay tuned for something really big I've been hard at work at, that will be bringing you lots and lots of entertainment for hopefully years to come. Coming soon!
I hope your year was good, and that the next one is way better.
Wishing you all the best.
Happy new year!
Gleib
