Rosebud Baker

Rosebud Baker’s the kind of comic who walks onstage and you just know she’s about to roast everyone in the room—including herself. She’s got that dry, razor-sharp edge, and honestly, it’s no shock she snagged an Emmy for her writing. People have been buzzing about her for years, and with Variety and Vulture both hyping her as the next big thing, you’d have to be living under a rock not to hear her name. She’s in the current writing crew for Saturday Night Live, which is kinda the comedy Olympics, and before that, she helped write the sketches that put That Damn Michael Che and Inside Amy Schumer on the map—both of which scored W.G.A. nominations, so you know it’s not just hype. Stand-up’s in her bones too. She hit the stage on Netflix’s That’s My Time with David Letterman, plus Bill Burr’s The Ringers on Comedy Central. Her first special, Whiskey Fists, dropped in 2021 on YouTube and yeah, Bill Burr produced it—no pressure, right? If you’re more into TV, she pops up in Life & Beth on Hulu, and she’s about to make waves in the horror-comedy scene with Hell of A Summer, which is directed by Finn Wolfhard and Billy Bryk. Not to overstate it, but Rosebud’s career is basically a highlight reel at this point, and she’s only getting started. She’s got the kind of dark, honest humor that sticks with you, whether you’re laughing or wincing.
