Neal Brennan is the comedy whisperer.
Over the past 25 years, he's helped famous friends punch up their material, usually without much fanfare. "Chappelle's Show"? He co-created it. "Inside Amy Schumer"? He directed 10 episodes. Seth Meyers' blistering takedown of Donald Trump during the 2011 White House Correspondents' Dinner? Key member of the writing team. Ellen DeGeneres' "Relatable," which marked her triumphant return to stand-up? Consulting producer.
But Brennan, 48, is a formidable talent all on his own. That'll be evident to anyone who catches his latest one-man performance, "Unacceptable."
