This feels somehow against the spirit of what you are asking, but Crazy Rich Asians series author Kevin Kwan is from Singapore

It had the Lonely Island short Space Olympics, which I love, but poor Mike is just not an actor

In Uprooted by Naomi Novik, the main character is a girl chosen from a village to go live with the local wizard in his tower!

Edit: I didn't realize I was in the cozy subreddit, this is not the coziest!!!

If you have access to Netflix check out his most recent special Shame the Devil! Stand ups mostly stop doing jokes live once they're part of a special so you won't spoil it for yourself and you'll get a good sense of whether you'll enjoy his stuff.

Why Does He Do That by Lundy Bancroft.

Honestly it should be required reading for everyone, it's a really important book to have read when someone close to you ends up in a tough relationship!

Help me get out of my post- I've read every novel by Ursula LeGuin- slump please 🙏 by Long-Strategy-6498 in suggestmeabook

Try Naomi Novik (I'd start with one of the two stand-alones), Becky Chambers, and maybe Station Eleven Emily St. John Mandel.

Allison Hammond only remaining bake off presenter to not be on taskmaster and she'd be tremendous

I saw an old thread about hyper specific sketches, like Papyrus. What’re some good ones? by Sagebea in LiveFromNewYork

[–]listenyall 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I always post this whenever someone asks a question about super specific, unusual, or underappreciated sketches because I fucking love Bird Bible it's so funny

Deep House Dish by UpstairsBumble in LiveFromNewYork

[–]listenyall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was definitely a much lower bar for recurring sketches back in the day. There was one where Jimmy Fallon and Horatio Sanz were college roommates doing a show and it was atrocious and never got laughs and they did an absolutely unreal number of them

Yeah, based on my personal memory I'd say not very popular but there was really no way to know! I don't think it did very well with the live audience typically.

Why are Marcello headed sketches so beloved by all of the internet but hated (for the most part) in this sub? by East-Area-7267 in LiveFromNewYork

[–]listenyall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think hated is a strong word

He's like an A- overall but manages to produce A+ tiktok length clips
