Best of Atlanta: Best Comedy Show

Smith’s Olde Bar Poets, Artists & Madmen, Critics

When “Saturday Night Live” is signing off, the 1AM SECRET SHOW is just getting started over at Smith’s Olde Bar. Current hosts David Perdue, Anthony Driver, and Olive Lynch wrangle boozy crowds in a packed room each week. The lineup isn’t revealed until showtime and rarely is set before then, either, as the hosts are trying to snag visiting big-name comics. After a weekend of two-drink-minimum crowds, headliners love to burn the midnight oil at a dive show where anything goes. Past performers include Hannibal Buress, Mary Lynn Rajskub, and Rory Scovel. If there is a big name in town, you’re almost guaranteed to see them at the 1AM. More at Best Comedy Show
