Joe DeRosa has made a name for himself in comedy and entertainment with six top-ten charting stand-up albums and a multitude of performances on television, radio, and in comedy clubs across the country and around the world. Joe’s debut one-hour special, titled You Let Me Down, premiered on Comedy Central in 2017, which he wrote, performed and directed. He recurred on AMC’s Better Call Saul as crooked veterinarian Dr. Caldera and currently hosts the heavily followed podcast We’ll See You In Hell, where he and Patrick Walsh review genre movies.
From 2020 through 2024 DeRosa co-hosted the wildly popular Taste Buds—a food debate show—with Impractical Jokers’ Sal Vulcano, which was distributed through DeRosa and Vulcano’s co-owned No Press Productions Network. Other select credits include: Inside Amy Schumer, Louie, Bored to Death, Chelsea Lately, Grand Theft Auto V, and two half-hour Comedy Central specials. Joe has also written, directed, and starred in a series of web shorts and television commercials.
Additionally, his writing has been featured on Netflix’s Tires and Wet Hot American Summer, HBO’s Crashing, Comedy Central’s Jeff and Some Aliens, as well as The Pete Holmes Show for TBS. Joe’s latest, much-anticipated hour special, I Never Promised You a Rose Garden, was released on YouTube in July 2025 and has amassed nearly 1 million views to date.
Joe is a regular guest on Kill Tony and will be featured in Netflix’s upcoming Kill Tony documentary. He is currently on a global tour with Shane Gillis, and recently appeared opposite Shane in a commercial for Bud Light.
