His one hour stand up special, 'The Manic-Depressive Chocolate Fountain Operator,' was directed by Brendan Canty of Fugazi and released on the 800 Pound Gorilla Media label. According to the Comedy Central Insider, "John F. O'Donnell is one of the more explosive comics in New York City. On stage, he's like a tightly capped liter of soda filled with lit fireworks."

John has been featured in The New York Times and The LA Times, as well as being one of Comedy Central's Fresh Faces of Comedy. He has performed at a number of comedy festivals around the country and beyond, including San Francisco Sketch Festival, Bridgetown Comedy Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Festival, New York Comedy Festival,

Bentzen Ball Comedy Festival, and Limestone Comedy Festival. He's been a favorite guest on the popular podcasts, ‘You Made It Weird w/ Pete Holmes’ and ‘RISK! w/ Kevin Allison.’

John is the co-creator and NYC host of the 20-city hit show, ’50 First Jokes.’ He also co-hosts the podcast, ‘Episodic,’ that uses comedy to destigmatize mental health issues. He has a critically-acclaimed solo show entitled, ‘I’M ON LITHIUM: A Comedic Journey About Bipolar Disorder,’ which he performs in residency in NYC and beyond. John’s new album ‘Live at The Cobra Club,’ released on the Burn This Records label, debuted at #1 on the iTunes Comedy Charts.
