Resumen del Editor

In his punchy, fast-moving act, Brett Hamil can be dumb, angry, opinionated, or amazed, but he always tries to make comedy that generates maximum laughter and excludes no one. He talks about sex, psychedelics, his "dog entourage", marrying into secular Judaism, and what it means to feel trapped in one's beard. The Seattle Weekly said, "Hamil stands as the city's premiere political comic". The Stranger called him "a truly treasured ham".

Brett Hamil was raised the son of a Southern preacher and a stay-at-home mom in the swampy suburbs of Central Florida. He grew up, got a semiworthless degree, worked a series of bizarre and backbreaking jobs, and eventually moved to the exact opposite end of the country. He now lives in Seattle with his wife and two dogs, all of whom he found on the Internet.

After dabbling in just about every creative outlet he could think of (painting, writing, cartooning, playing saxophone in a postrock band), Hamil settled on stand-up nine years ago, and he's been doing it hard ever since. He tours all over the US and Canada doing comedy, and he's performed at Bumbershoot Arts and Music Festival (Seattle), Bridgetown Comedy Festival (Portland), and the Northwest Comedy Fest (Vancouver). He's also a columnist and cartoonist for City Arts Magazine, and his sketch videos have received hundreds of thousands of views and appeared on websites like Upworthy and The Daily Dot. His political commentary videos have earned him a local following and spun off into a semimonthly talk show, The Seattle Process with Brett Hamil.
