James Roberts was born and raised is rural Washington. In towns so small when he told people where he was from he'd tell them Chehalis, the nearest "big city" in the area, and people would still have no idea where that is. With little to do besides hit trees with sticks, James spent his childhood making his friends and family laugh. A pastime that greatly influenced his desire to pursue stand up comedy as a career.
James' awkward take on blue humor landed him the finals of the very first open mic comedy competion he signed up for. From then on the stages and competitions only got bigger. Making the semifinals at Nate Jackson’s Super Funny Comedy Club's "Funniest MF out here" competition 2023, the 2023 Seattle international comedy competition, and Washington's funniest mammal 2024.
Whether he's telling the story of how he got diagnosed with autism in his 30's, his hypothetical plans after winning the lottery, past dating experiences. More often then not, someone in the audience will come up to him after the show, compelled to tell him he was "their favorite comic tonight."
