In China, Jiaoying Summers was once a “dumpster baby” thrown out by her own father, and now she’s an internationally acclaimed comedian and TikTok star with over 1 billion views. Brad Williams was born with achondroplasia dwarfism, and now his first one-hour special “Fun Size” is the highest rated special on Showtime. Both are breaking records as comedians and defying all odds as they sell out venues around the world.

Brad Williams is one of today’s most in-demand comedians. He is a dwarf, whose new special on LiveNation’s streaming service Veeps, premieres today — because it’s the shortest day of the year! Brad’s first one-hour special, “Fun Size,” was the highest rated special on Showtime. Brad’s also appeared in Adult Swim’s Robot Chicken, Little Evil, Mascots, and Reno 911: It’s A Wonderful Heist. Brad was named by the late Robin Williams as “Prozac with a head.” Follow him at https://x.com/funnybrad and find more at https://bradwilliamscomedy.com
