App Finder: Funniest comedy apps Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted Feb. 13, 2015 at 9:25 AM Posted Feb. 13, 2015 at 9:25 AM » Social News Sometimes life doesn’t feel so funny, and we find ourselves in need of a momentary escape into the minds of our favorite comedians. Whether you’re a fan of dark comedy, biting satire or British humor, a host of apps for iTunes and Android have you covered. From podcasts to stand-up clips and funny tweets, check these out next time you’re feeling a strong case of the Mondays coming on. iHeartRadio: Download iHeartRadio to your smartphone and tune in to the app’s 24/7 Comedy station. Though you can’t find the station on local radio airwaves anymore these days — the station was phased out for good last year by parent company Clear Channel — it lives on in app form, feeding listeners stand-up clips from comics like Hannibal Buress, Todd Barry, Jim Gaffigan, Jerry Seinfeld, Doug Benson and Maria Bamford. Free for iOS and Android. http://www.247comedy.com WitStream: Love reading funny tweets from your favorite comedians and humorists but not interested in wading through everything? WitStream sorts through Twitter to keep you laughing 24/7, highlighting trending topics and arranging things in way that makes it easy to navigate through it all. Read tweets about what’s happening in current events, or check out livetweets of major events in TV, movies, sports and beyond. Free for iOS and Android. http://www.witstream.com Earwolf Comedy Podcasts: Earwolf is home to some of the most popular comedy-centric podcasts (that aren’t Marc Maron’s very-funny WTF, also available in app form), including “How Did This Get Made?” with Paul Scheer, June Diane Raphael and Jason Mantzoukas. Other comedians with Earwolf podcasts include Jeff Garlin, Rob Huebel, Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter. Listen to all of your favorites on the go for free with this app. Free for iOS and Android. http://www.earwolf.com Comedy Central: Watch your favorite Comedy Central shows like “Broad City,” “The Daily Show” and “Key and Peele” for free on your smartphone the day after they air on TV. The app also features episodes of some of the network’s old classics like “Chappelle’s Show.” Want more stand-up? Download the free CC Standup app for video clips of performances by comics like Amy Schumer and Anthony Jeselnik. Free for iOS and Android. http://www.cc.com/app Hot app of the week Flushd: When you think “hot apps,” you probably don’t think “public restrooms,” but Flushd may wind up one of the most utilized app in your smartphone. It’s pretty simple. Really gotta go? Open up Flushd and the app will find you the nearest public restroom to where you’re standing. The app also allows users to rate the restrooms they visit, so you can steer clear of the dirtier, grimier spots.
