Joe Zimmerman grew up in Morgantown, West Virginia, and started his comedy career in North Carolina. While living in the South, his stand-up group the Beards of Comedy landed a record deal with Comedy Central Records. He moved to New York City in 2012, quickly appearing on The Late Late Show and John Oliver’s New York Stand-Up Show, as well as performing at Montreal’s prestigious Just for Laughs festival. His resume has since grown to include The Tonight Show, Conan, Nickelodeon, Last Comic Standing, and his own Comedy Central Half Hour.

Comedian Joe Zimmerman made something special with Cult Classic. Directed by Nate Bargatze and filmed in Asheville, North Carolina at The Grey Eagle, Zimmerman's debut one-hour comedy special covers the story of a murderous owl, the evolutionary upside of depression, the unacknowledged courtesy of ghosting, and the strange morality of David and Goliath. Watch now so you can remember it later as the ultimate cult classic!
