Some of my most hated things include stand up comedy (all kinds) and people who respond to arguments not with helpful criticism but exhortations to “go read [insert name]” as if that author’s tome is some kind of grimoire or Rosetta Stone

Would you consider stand up as a form of storytelling? Oral tradition? Most are awful but some are captivating.

The best ones are something else -- akin to storytellers or lecturers or wandering philosophers -- as I was discussing with @Young_Swatty. I suppose that's a bit of a swerve, "changing the definition" and all, but they're apples and oranges w/ the bulk of the "stand-ups"
