"Danny Braff is a NJ based comedian who’s dark observational style has entertained audiences at clubs and bars across the country including The Comedy Store, The Stress Factory Comedy Club, New York Comedy Club, The Comedy Connection, etc. Danny has made 2 appearances on the popular comedy podcast Kill Tony and is one of very few people to have received a standing ovation on the show. He has opened for comics such as Tim Dillon, Mark Normand, Jessica Kirson, Rich Vos, Yannis Pappas, and more. A Comedy reviewer in Florida once described Danny’s act in print as: “exhaustive list of Costco jokes” but Danny prefers to think of it as Costco Jokes in bulk."

I am Josh Adam Meyers. I am a comedian. I am from Baltimore, Maryland. I live in Los Angeles, CA. I am the creator and host of The Goddamn Comedy Jam which will be on Comedy Central in 2016. I was a “New Face” at Just For Laughs Montreal in 2013. I have performed at NYCF 15, JFL 15 and Moontower Comedy Fest 16. Catch me at my home club, the Hollywood Improv, every Saturday Night at 11:30pm.

Usama Siddiquee is a Bengali-American stand-up comedian and actor based in New York. He’s the kind of comic you want to follow right now, so you can totally gloat to your friends about how you were totally into him before he got huge. And then they’ll get really jealous of your impeccable foresight and superior taste. His act is an energetic (bordering on frenetic) and intelligent (bordering on genius) romp through his own life experiences. Family! Friends! Sex! Religion! Sex with religious friends! It’s all there, and Usama slings jokes on these topics and more with rapid-fire charisma and hilarity.

Named "A Comic To Watch" by The Huffington Post, Nicky Paris is a stand-up comedian whose career began in New York City at the ripe age of 17, where he quickly became a fixture in the Big Apple's comedy circuit. Nicky's electrifying comedy has been featured by a multitude of media outlets such as Entertainment Tonight, Forbes, The Los Angeles Times, People Magazine,and more.

Amanda Gail is a NYC/Hoboken based stand up comedian, writer, producer and podcaster. She can be seen every Thursday in Hoboken performing at her own show SHOWBOKEN. Her writing can be seen on Reductress.com and other tweets floating around the internet.

Eddie Pepitone
Amanda Gail

Eddie Pepitone: They call him the Bitter Buddha (captured in the critically-acclaimed feature film documentary of the same name). Comedian Eddie Pepitone is a master of the dark art of comedy, often hailed as a modern-day cross between Jackie Gleason, Don Rickles, and Eckart Tolle. Eddie is a force of nature on stage, switching between social rage and self-doubt. His shows are an energetic combo of calm and chaos, blue-collar angst and sardonic enlightenment. Few comedians working today channel the power of the rant better than Eddie Pepitone. Fans will know Eddie from his newest Netflix one-hour special 'IN RUINS', his numerous appearances on 'WTF with Marc Maron', or his performances on 'Community' and 'Bob's Burgers'. In addition to his regular stand-up shows, Eddie is a stand-out comic/character actor, with recurring roles on Late Night with Conan O’Brien. Eddie has also appeared on numerous comedy TV shows, including The Life and Times of Tim, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Sarah Silverman Program, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Last Comic Standing, and Chappelle’s Show. Pepitone is also an accomplished dramatic actor, having appeared on Law and Order: Criminal Intent and 'The Muppets', and is the host of the very popular Peptalks Podcast. Eddie is also a regular headliner at prestigious comedy festivals around the world, and a constant performer at some of the most legendary clubs in Los Angeles including The Comedy Store, Largo, and the Hollywood Improv. 2019-2020 will see Eddie embarking on some long-awaited new national tour dates alongside fellow comic JT Habersaat, dubbed the 'FOR THE MASSES' TOUR.
