Some people tell jokes. Willie Macc turns survival into stand-up....

A comedian, actor, writer, and creator, Willie has built one of comedy's most authentic voices by turning life's messiest moments into unforgettable stories. From fatherhood and relationships to growing up as a preacher's kid and discovering later in life that he's neurodivergent, Willie doesn't shy away from the conversations most people avoid...he makes audiences laugh through them.
 

With more than 100 million views across social media, Willie has become one of comedy's fastest-rising digital storytellers. His hilarious and heartfelt father-son videos with his son Malcolm have generated tens of millions of views, striking a chord with parents, neurodivergent adults, and families navigating modern life. What started as comedy has become a community of people who feel seen, understood, and a little less alone.
 

His comedy special, Good Dad, Bad Father, is now streaming through 800 Pound Gorilla and YouTube, showcasing the honest storytelling that has become his signature. His stand-up has also been featured on Dry Bar Comedy, TruTV's LaffMobb LaffTracks, Revolt TV's Funny AF, and Don't Tell Comedy, where his performances have reached millions of viewers around the world.
 

Many audiences first discovered Willie on BET's College Hill: Virgin Island, but he's since built an impressive career as both an actor and comedian. His credits include The Goldbergs, CSI, Hulu's Casual, and more than 50 national commercials for brands including Kia, Verizon, Progressive, Credit Karma, and Snapple. He's also toured internationally, performing stand-up for U.S. military troops stationed around the world.
 

Never content to stay in one lane, Willie is also expanding behind the camera. He was selected for the prestigious Black Boy Writes / Black Girl Writes Mentorship Initiative, where he's developing original television projects while working toward becoming a television writer and showrunner. He also starred in HGTV's home renovation pilot My Flippin' Family, proving his storytelling extends far beyond the stage.
 

Whether he's headlining comedy clubs, creating content with his son, developing television, or hosting the AfroNoodles podcast, Willie Macc brings the same thing every time: authenticity. His mission is simple to make people laugh, make them feel seen, and prove that sometimes the funniest stories are the ones you survive.
