2022/08/22

Alexis Ramirez is one of my favorite people in Greenville comedy. She reminds me of a young Rosanne Barr (minus the tweets). She has infectious positivity, smart edgy jokes, and is always fun to hang out with. Beyond her standup, she’s a talented singer, so catch her at Sharkey’s or Smiley’s for karaoke after a comedy show, and you won’t be disappointed. On this episode we talk about vapes, being the new girl in a standup scene, God, and more. Follow Alexis at the links below, and I hope you enjoy

The girls took over the podcast this week. Liz Parke and Whitney Rayner are two local Greenville comedy favorites who have both been on the show before. Whitney stopped by on her recent visit to GVL from LA, and Liz, the “it” girl of Greenville, came over just to hassle me. Love both of these girls…very funny, and you should check them out on stage here in the upstate, or out in California for Whitney if you can.

Today we welcome Aaron Quillen to the show. Our first ever legally blind guest, Aaron is affectionately known by many in the Greenville Comedy Scene as “Blind Aaron.” He describes himself as the potato of comedy (because neither can see). He’s also a father, veteran, and all-around piece of sh**. By day, Aaron works as a massage therapist.

2022/05/31

We recorded our first group episode with Ben Jennings, Bill Riner, and Jacob Noland. This was probably a mistake.

You can catch all of them on stage performing weekly in Greenville at the Comedy Zone. In this episode we talk about if Jerry Seinfeld is funny, Roe v. Wade, Jacob’s mom, and more.

2022/05/23

‘On a cold night in December 1994, a little round mound of chocolate was born by the name of Christian Williams. Christian then slowly grew into an average sized chocolate man who is also an improv and stand up comedian.’ His humor can be described as light hearted and silly. He’s also an expert in writing his own podcast intros. Christian has been doing comedy going on 4 years. I met him the Art Bar Open Mic in Columbia (Tuesdays @ 8:30PM), where he’s one of the local favorites. On stage, he’s

2022/05/16

We finally got Ben Jennings on the podcast. Ben is a local Greenville comic, and good friend of mine. By day, Ben’s an automotive engineer. When he’s on stage, he’s polished, dark, and also weird as hell (he was homeschooled, and loves Caillou for some reason). He started standup a few years ago, and now hits mics every week in GVL. I don’t know what else to put because it’s 1AM as I’m writing this. Sorry this isn’t a better summary Ben. I think it’s good enough though; we had a great interview. Be

Today I interview Lane Wilson. She is a transplant to South Carolina from Austin. Lane is a trophy wife whose hobbies include competitive lawn maintenance, hostile Facebook shaming, and cooking. After (unintentionally) making people laugh for over 50 years, Lane began doing open mic comedy in January of 2019. Lane appeared in “Take Five”, a play presented by the Oconee Community Theatre. With little or no acting experience, Lane hoped to parlay this opportunity into a lucrative movie contract. Lane

Bill Riner is back. One of our local favorites, Bill has been on the standup comedy scene for just over a year now. He’s one of our quirkiest comics, to put it mildly. Bill is an avid fan of Batman, and his comedy is a mix of absurd sexual topics, comic books, his cat, and movie ideas. By day, Bill works as a tailor at a bridal shop, and by night he’s either on stage or creating content for his Instagram and TikTok followers (be sure to catch his patented “Toast Reviews”).
