Erik Griffin (born 12 March 1976) is an American comedian, actor, and podcast host best known for his role as the eccentric Montez Walker on Comedy Central’s hit series Workaholics. With his signature blend of observational humour, charisma, and unfiltered commentary, Griffin has become a mainstay in stand-up comedy, performing internationally and releasing multiple specials including Amerikan Warrior and The Ugly Truth. Beyond the stage, he’s built a loyal following through his podcast Riffin’ with Griffin, where he brings comedy, culture, and candid conversations together with ease.

Griffin’s style is laid-back with a retro-cool streak—graphic tees, varsity jackets, and vintage sneakers are his staples. His eyewear is central to his look: bold, thick-rimmed glasses, often in square or slightly rounded silhouettes, adding both character and charisma to his offbeat charm. Whether he’s on stage, behind the mic, or hanging with fans, Erik Griffin’s glasses are unmistakably part of his identity—playful, distinctive, and just as expressive as his comedy. Think Persol meets old-school hip-hop flair: unfussy, timeless, and totally on brand.
