Luis Slimming

Luis Alberto Slimming Castillo (born in Santiago de Chile on July 11, 1987), also known by the nickname "Don Comedia", is a Chilean comedian and scriptwriter. He studied mathematics at the Universidad Católica de Chile, where he graduated and worked for a time as a teacher. However, he always kept his passion for comedy, a vocation that led him to take part in the Mega program Coliseo Romano in 2011. Although he did not have much success on that program, he stayed on working as a scriptwriter, in which role he worked for comedians such as Stefan Kramer, Edo Caroe, Fabrizio Copano and Pedro Ruminot. After remaining behind the scenes for several years, in 2017 he resumed his activity in stand up as a comedian.

In January 2023 he had his breakthrough by taking part in the 52nd edition of the Festival del Huaso de Olmué, where he had a good reception from the audience. That same year he joined the program El Purgatorio on Canal 13, forming a duo with the comedian Chiqui Aguayo in each episode. In December of the same year his participation in the following year's LXIII Festival Internacional de la Canción de Viña del Mar was confirmed, where he shared the stage with the bands Maná and Men at Work, paid tribute to Sandy, and won the gaviotas de plata and de oro. In 2024 he was part of the cast of the program El antídoto, hosted by Fabrizio Copano on Mega.

Besides his career as a stand up comedian, he is also part of the podcast El Sentido del Humor alongside his friends and humorists Marcelo "Coronel" Valverde and Héctor Romero, with whom he has a production company under the same name. He also hosts the interview program Entre Broma y Broma, where he invites well-known humorists and figures related to comedy in Chile. His awards include the Festival del Huaso de Olmué (2023), the Copihue de Oro for Best Podcast for El Sentido del Humor (2023), the Gaviota de Plata and de Oro at the LXIII Festival de la Canción de Viña del Mar (2024), the Premio Caleuche for "Mejor Comediante" (2025), and the Copihue de Oro for his program Entre Broma y Broma in the best streaming program category (2025).
