FELIPE ESPARZA is a comedian and actor, best known for his raw, real-life comedy, to which audiences everywhere can relate.  A product of the streets of Boyle Heights/East L.A., much of his material is the result of trying to find the humor in the struggles of everyday life.  After 17 years of stand-up comedy, he won the title prize on NBC's "Last Comic Standing" in 2010, and a few short years later, he produced and released his first one-hour stand-up special, "They're Not Gonna Laugh At You."  He has also appeared on national commercials for Honda and Target, TruTV's "World's Dumbest," "The Arsenio Hall Show," "Comics Unleashed," Comedy Central's "Premium Blend," "Russell Simmons Presents:  Stand-Up At The El Rey," Showtime's "Comics Without Borders," TBS' "Lopez Tonight," and Galavision's "Que Locos," which spurred the careers of both George Lopez and Gabriel Iglesias.  Felipe's podcast, "What's Up, Fool?" on the All Things Comedy Network, entered the top 15 comedy charts, and top 70 overall, quickly becoming a fan favorite with a huge, loyal following.  Felipe is currently touring across the country and working on his next one-hour special.
