[@schlibbity]

I had the honor of stage managing for Mary in the Wisconsin Dells a few years ago and she is hands down the most fun and pleasant person I've ever worked with ❤️

[@BigGoronSword]

It's Jesse from Solar Opposites! I can't unsee her comedy as Jesse in my head

[@MikeGane]

Mary Mack is amazing and so is her husband Tim Harmston. Both great comedians and friends!

[@smartfunny15]

Mary Mack comes by the open mics from Wussow's, Caddyshack and Duhb Linn's here in Duluth where they are the hot spots of the local group called High Bridge Comedy. She's as humble as funny.

[@Endl3ssN1tem4res]

I read this comment in a Wisconsin accent.

[@erock2229]

I have seen her several times and she is very down to earth as I have had the pleasure of talking to her after the shows.

[@lindajohnson6382]

Loved the comedy of Mary Mack. I lived in San Diego with my military husband and after he got out he wanted to move back home to Wisconsin but it was a real slower pace than California! Lol! Mary Mack was too funny today! I grew up in Florida and did not know anything about Wisconsin!

[@nikkijennings834]

I remember first time seeing her was on the dry bar comedy channel here on KZbin! She's hilarious!❤️ Glad to see shes still making moves and rising all the while! Good for you, Mary!!!

[@hollyday9228]

I got to open for Mary Mack in St. Paul in 2019--usually, I make my husband stay at home because I hate seeing him in the audience, but that show, I couldn't keep him away. Not because he wanted to see me on stage, either--everyone came to see Mary Mack.

[@seanwilks7712]

I love her on Solar Opposites and High On Life!

[@lindapindabelinda3570]

Hilarious. I was born in Wisconsin and all of the jokes seem like home.

[@an6350]

she's such a bright and youthful spirit

[@Match143]

Somehow Minnesota and Wisconsin are more Canadian speaking than Canadians...and I'm Canadian.

[@congaqueen19]

That’s how people talk here, I dunno. Come down and figure it out, linguistics expert 😂 Language and dialects migrate, my friend. Just laugh and move along

[@stevebagley3436]

Where in Canada? Cuz, ya know, over 50% of Canadians live south (sout) of us

[@davegink9222]

Minnesota’s UP and northern Wisconsin is very much like that. I know, my dad had a place 5 miles off the upper peninsula Michigan border. Drop into any of the bars up there and you’ll be amazed.

[@brandonwolfe]

Visit Mosinee Wisconsin sometime. I lived near there and had co-workers from there. Was the most drastic accent compared to the rest of the area. Almost a Wisconsin/Canadian accent right in the middle of the state.

[@LoriKasprzak-yk6nc]

She reminds me of Maria Bamford.

[@jakerudh9124]

“A Little Too Weird” … the weirder the better! Love from MN Mary - you betcha!

[@thelaw1441]

I found her from Solar Opposites and I’m obsessed! She’s delightful.

[@SansSelf]

Jesse Opposites might be my favorite character on that show - and the joke about her sounding like a Midwest comedian even though she's from outer space madness this set even better, heh.

[@JoyonPurpose]

I have seen her live several times and talked a bit off stage...and what you see is what you get. Very sweet, genuine, and funny. I am delighted that she got this opportunity as she stepped up and did well.

[@calichristmas]

Mary is such a refreshing comic. I love all her work. Great job!

[@OOJoe1987]

She really got my attention at the dry bar comedy page. The Jimmy Fallon debut wasn't all that I mean a couple of Chuckles but the dry bar comedy I love that best 40 minutes of my life

[@RonWinter335]

Saw her years ago...so glad she is still up and at it!!

[@mike91mdk45]

Canada, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and North Dakota seem to have all joined together to create their very own human

[@georgeelder8415]

Don't forget the Yoop!

[@ronnietoobadd]

That Venison in the freezer joke TOOK ME OUT!

[@SeattleFunkDiscoChick]

I related to the part about her mom’s old Swedish palate and chives are like the habanero of Minnesota. My mom was Swedish and wouldn’t even use black pepper or anything at all spicy. To this day I have to order my Thai food with zero stars! 😂

[@danieledstrom5777]

That's so weird, because if you go to Sweden today, you'll find all sorts of great spicy food.

[@mmegraham]

My people are from way up north, too. Unfortunately, I inherited that palate. I'm up to two stars with Thai food.

[@rjh6380]

Yes, This is what us Wisconsinites are like. Venison and beer, with a side of cheesy.

[@JustFrozen77]

Side of cheesy? Now i get the cheese state references. This was the cheesiest standup skit i've ever seen in my life

[@-iris-7884]

I love my Aunt’s comedy. My sister commented on this as well. 💀

[@KalebTheDuck]

her comedy is just as nice as the characters she plays as.

[@istdochallesegal3427]

Fair point about the freezer full of venison!!!

[@amazinglyandrew1]

I liked the pig community college joke! Not too weird for me!

[@josephthomas2226]

One of the funniest women on the planet

[@omnitrix1992]

Pre-package the fudge joke hahaha

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

I saved this one (and another stand-up) and so glad. This was a real treat. Hilarious and adorable

[@jimgauth]

What a hoot!

[@john-danson3113]

Fantastic start 8 years back, hard years, and now the hard work paid off, here she is with a gleam again. God bless that clarinet magician.

[@A_G420]

Never heard of her before this, enjoyed her style.

[@randallsmerna384]

Damn, she looks even better than her Drybar special! Great comedian!

[@UtahDelaCruz]

“She has to have her own thoughts.” Killing me.

[@zzzcocopepe]

i LOVE people from wisconsin and minnesota. they're so fucking NICE. ugh. its such a relief. i cant stand angry hateful people.

[@brandonlongbottom5747]

"too weird" hahahahaha i love her

[@barrettpickett5603]

I loved the zoom in. I put some plastic old clothes bins on the fire. My brother was like my friend is going to repurpose for gift wrap. Because the plastic becomes a blob. Good grief.

[@travisg999]

mary is thee best!

[@adamrassi3516]

Her half-hour on dry bar comedy is really good too

[@amonrodriguez3518]

Amazing!

[@DorkSausage]

I adore her voice in Solar Opposites. I have no idea how I missed that she’s from Wisconsin until just now. It’s SO clear xP

[@asteverino8569]

Thanks Marry M and MERRY CHRISTMAS to ya.

[@MichelleWalterdoesArt]

Back in the day we used to see Mary at Acme comedy club in minneapolis! Now she’s a big time deal, ya know!

[@LoganPayne-mu2sn]

I could listen to here talk all day 24/7.

[@iaov]

Makes me proud to be from northern Wisconsin!!

[@Denis-89]

She is on Solar Opposites, is she not? Thought I recognized the voice...

[@mikejettusa]

Great set

[@christopherrafferty6164]

That's hilarious, how refreshing, not run of the mill , very inventive

[@fredciba]

We have seen her live. You should too. She's a laugh riot; hubby Tim Harmston also. Not kidding!

[@julijamironovaite]

Look up her performance on Dry Bar Comedy, she is really good, glad she performed here! All the best!

[@Tonyhouse1168]

I’d love to..but every time I watch a dry bar vid my entire feed is nothing but dry bar for days and I can only take so much of people being grateful that the comedian isn’t “dirty” or uses “those words” in the comments :/

[@VerbalGOAT]

lol the alien from Solar opposites is doing stand up I knew it lmao awesome!

[@maya4good]

i love her 😭

[@zevin_actionman]

3:48 That zoom in was gold 👍🏻

[@lukeolson2382]

Went to Mary's comedy show in Grand Rapids, MN just yesterday

[@statikdog]

Love her.

[@richardsimon4135]

She is hilarious 😂

[@cassidymae6069]

She went to my school in high school and the teacher that fell threw the ice is are art teacher 😂

[@bluegalant]

*through

[@xsagemasterx]

great job

[@AntJonez218]

Haha I'm from Duluth watching this

[@jaybird6905]

spot on. roast the fkn dreams out of it. excelkant comedy, lady. 👍

[@61lastchild]

Sold.

[@apok1980]

She’s kind of funny in a wholesome (dark Fargo) kind of way. I like her energy. Plus I think I just realized that I’m kind of in to that Midwest (don’t cha know) kind of lady, minus their bland taste buds.

[@JavierFernandez01]

Hella good. Hahahha. He figured it oat.

[@mistifa2908]

Chives are the jabenero of Minnesota! Bahahaha!

[@donlew8222]

Absolutely love the accent! Great job!

[@doougle]

She looks like Mary Tyler Moore in a good way!

[@Nickdeaugustine]

With that name I thought she was gonna freestyle rap but instead she made me laugh.

[@jonny5isalive353]

first thing I thought about as well,,, give me 3 words...

[@thisinhumanplace2037]

Such a tight set

[@Itsant33]

Her and Pete Lee are both great comedians from Wisconsin. Does anyone know any other great talent from there?

[@JordiNels]

THAT IS MY AUNT 🥹🥹🥹🥹

[@homesickNovalis]

Her and Bamford should play sisters in something lol

[@TaylerSpliff]

Oh jeez wow

[@DIVYANSH_JAT_2007]

We never forget Milly for trim Jim beard 😂😂😂😂

[@mikejettusa]

Duluth MN

[@MikeBramm]

She's a hoot, don't ya know.

[@pearlrose6504]

she’s too funny for Fallon fans they don’t barely know what to make of a darn good joke!

[@CAPCal]

Jessie!!!

[@johndannenbrink7590]

You have to be from that area to really get it. Same with Mark Proksch (aka Kenny Strasser) who got a bunch of Wisconsin morning news shows to have him on. He pretended to be a yo-yo master that went around to schools teaching kids about the environment. Fooled em all. I showed my grade school Wisconsin friend, a top of his class/field medical doctor. He said his stomach hurt so bad, 10 minutes of non-stop laughter.

[@thisinhumanplace2037]

Jessie from solar opposites!

[@-amosc.presley-7192]

Hopefully? That Comedian flourished also becomes Famous ✅…

[@Endl3ssN1tem4res]

This seems like a comedians worst nightmare. Jimmy sitting back there in the darkness like emperor Palpatine too.

[@TheRealThomasPaine1776]

Mary, I love you so much I have an i terview for a great job up in Wisconsin, but it's in the center. Not like it's wicked close or nothing, I know that. Course you're still married, but that's ok. But I can still see you at the shows, right? Well, I don't have the job yet, but you never know. Just thought it would be pretty neat being closer after all these years.

[@tweetyhearts3169]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@denisosullivan2956]

She sounds a bit like my relatives in Northern Ontario in Canada.

[@mhzprayer]

This has me wondering if my wife really is listening when I tell her the fantasy football updates...

[@JazzyPhay15]

She needs to get into voice acting! Sooo cute! 🥹

[@-iris-7884]

She is a voice actor, she’s in solar opposites!! :)

[@JazzyPhay15]

@@-iris-7884 OMG!!! I THOUGHT she was Jesse!! I kept hearing it! 🤣

[@ndjjiekkskkejjr]

she looks exactly like aoc in a different universe 😭😂

[@krisfrederick5001]

Did someone somehow fuse Mandy Moore and Wynona Ryder and send her from Wisconsin? 👀

[@Saiputera]

The thumbnail look like AOC 😂😂😂

[@justin_your_cousin9273]

She sounds very Canadian Soe instead if so. Aboat instead of about

[@EMSWK]

I wonder if the organic fudge bit is based on Hayward Wisconsin and their fudge. Yeah, I reckon her husband is a lucky guy until he asks to spoon her then she recalls trips to the "big city" growing up... Feel bad for the fellow a little bit heard he told her that there was a hole in the wall and she said "you betcha, that casino had the trashiest hotel in the county."

[@dustinallen8659]

Typical, omg so hilarious

[@scottspies3103]

she sounds very canadian

[@LockItInEddie]

Tbh I got Mary Mack and Kristen Schaal mixed up lol. Who sounds better?

[@zzzcocopepe]

wait she's literally Ms. Mary Mack. why the hell isn't she dressed in black. wtf

[@Ivykitten91]

This literally went through my head as I read her name haha

[@zzzcocopepe]

@@Ivykitten91 i had to go through the whole thing in my head, i havent done it since i was like 8. lol. they do a bit about it on bob's burgers.

[@chloefreeborn5329]

It has been awhile since Zendaya was on the show!

[@sethrabin833]

Who knew Savannah Guthrie was good at stand-up?

[@randybarrientes8692]

Jimmy fallon they should remake ren and stimpy

[@DerekHoscorner]

Jimmy Fallon mary mack person all here see how beard awesomeness job

[@mickael486]

it's kinda weird to see a comic on the tonight show now. always new blood. remember when this was a constant? both new and established, on about twice a week back in the 20th century.

[@1969EType]

It was a high honor for a comedian to be invited to perform on The Tonight Show. But, the real badge of honor was when Johnny would invite them to come and sit for a chat after their set. That's when you knew Johnny was putting you over, right there on national television and you had made it as a comedian.

[@visariosorino8034]

🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 To the person reading this, even though I don't know you. I wish you the best of what life has to offer 🙏 🤗 ❤️

[@roxmenot2]

This is like a 1950's variety TV show set...

Thanks
