OmgItsWicks in Jacksonville

"What's going on out here?" If that line sounds familiar, you have probably seen OmgItsWicks. Behind the handle is Josh Robinson, a lifelong Southwest Florida resident who turns everyday Florida, from alligators climbing fences to Publix runs and hurricane prep, into short, clean sketches.

Josh was working a customer service job at a Southwest Florida call center when the pandemic sent him home, and he started making short videos on TikTok in 2020. A flip phone in his hand became part of the brand almost by accident. By 2022 comedy was his full time job.

His friend and fellow comic Myke Herlihy pushed him toward stand-up, and his first show was in Orlando. The live OmgItsWicks and Friends shows mix stand-up, sketches, audience interaction and a question and answer session, with plenty of Florida in all of it. Josh names Eddie Murphy, Martin Lawrence, Jim Carrey and the Wayans brothers as influences.

Florida loves him back. A 2025 WGCU report counted about 1.6 million TikTok followers, and in 2026 fans started a petition asking Publix to put him in a holiday commercial.
