Adults-Only, But Handle With Care

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/09/02

The Pub & Grub Comedy Tour is proudly adults-only. We’re not out here trying to make balloon animals for your kid’s birthday party. We’re serving up beers, laughs, and the kind of stories you don’t repeat to your boss on Monday morning. But here’s the thing: adults-only doesn’t just mean “say the F-word until people clap.” It’s this strange cocktail of being relatable and edgy at the same time.

Bar Comedy’s Golden Rule: Funny First, Filthy Second

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/08/12

The Pub & Grub Comedy Tour is for grown-ups, sure, but if your whole act is nothing but blue material, you’re dead in the water before you even hit the mic.

Dog Days of Bar Comedy

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/08/04

Treat every gig like it matters. Because if you don’t respect the stage, why the hell should anyone else? You don’t pack up your jokes and pout just because you’re not playing a theater. You bring it. For 12 people. For a dog. For whoever the hell is listening.

Stand-Up Comedy vs. Sammy Kershaw: A Battle No One...

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/07/28

Now let me tell you something, folks… trying to do stand-up comedy twelve yards away from a country legend with 30 top ten hits is like trying to tell knock-knock jokes during a hurricane.

Front Row Phobia

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/07/21

Every time I walk into a venue and see that dead zone right up front—you know, those six empty chairs that might as well have yellow caution tape and a biohazard sign—I know exactly what’s goin’ on: Front Row Phobia.

Sometimes The Joke Just Isn't For You

The hard truth about stand-up comedy: not every joke is meant for every person—and that’s perfectly okay.

Why “Fame is Lame” When Booking Comedy Shows

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/07/14

Why The Pub & Grub Comedy Tour™ consists of professional comics over social media “stars” — and how one YouTube hotshot just killed comedy at another venue forever. Don’t miss this behind-the-scenes truth bomb from the frontlines of the bar comedy scene.

Stop Winging It—You Ain’t a Bird

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/06/05

You ever meet one of those comedians—or hell, a business owner—who says, “I’m just trying to figure it out as I go!” Yeah? You know what we used to call people like that? Unemployed. Everybody’s trying to reinvent the wheel. Newsflash: the wheel works just fine. You just need to learn how to drive. Too many comics—and business owners—are out here trying to freestyle life like it’s a jazz solo. No structure. No strategy. Here’s the truth: business sh...

Stand-Up Comedy Is Not Background Noise

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/05/19

Stand-up comedy… is NOT background noise. It's not elevator music. It's not the jukebox. It's not karaoke. So next time you’re at a bar and you see a comedian take the stage, maybe turn to your buddy and say, ‘Hey man, shut the hell up. The funny guy’s talkin’.’

Touring Aint' Easy, But Someone's Gotta Do It

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/04/24

A lot of people think that comedians just hop on a jet do a tight forty-five, drop the mic and ride off into the sunset with a groupie and a sack full of cash, ... that ain't comedy touring. That's more like a fever dream. Real touring, real touring, returning a rental car that smells like a year's worth of Taco Bell. Waking up in a Super8. Living off a gas station beef jerky. Doing shows in bars where the stage is made out of plywood and milk crates. And playing to crowds who thought t...

When the Crowd is Thin and the Vibe is Thinner

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/04/23

Anybody can crush when it is a sold out show in a club. Anybody can do that. It takes a solid road comic to headline in a room that looks like some sort of post-apocalyptic movie. You'll actually have three three three or four people will be there for comedy they deserve a show. You don't just phone it in because you're working the minor leagues. You do it better. You got to play it like it's a sold-out arena... in your head. And that's the difference between a pro and an amateur. The p...

The Finale That Ain't Really a Finale

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/04/22

It's the end of an era and the beginning of a new one. We are officially hanging up the headphones on the Bar Comedy USA News radio segment that took place with Double T on Rockford's “Home for Classic Rock”, 96.7FM, TheEagle. It was four years every Tuesday morning reporting to Double T and his listeners about what's happening in bar comedy across the country.

The Last Call: Wrapping Up Bar Comedy USA News

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/04/21

The big finale. The last hurrah. The final round of the Bar Comedy USA News radio segment. And just like the end of a long comedy tour, it’s bittersweet— But don’t be sad. This isn’t goodbye. It’s more like, “I’ll see you at the next gig.” We’ll still be out there—on the road with The Pub & Grub Comedy Tour.

2025/04/21

Really needing to bring their A-game were the superstars of The Pub and Grub Comedy Tour, MVPs, Doug Canney and Chris Barrett. They went to the Diesel Tap in Buford, Georgia, and it was a little bit rough. They had not much of an audience. It was mostly regulars, from what I understand, who didn't seem to want to have much to do with the comedy. And that will happen when you do some of these nightclubs, taverns, neighborhood, restaurants, bars. Sometimes it's like an ambush. Comed...

March Madness: Why Comedy Will Never Win

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/03/13

Here’s the thing: when people come to a comedy show, they’re there to laugh. When people go to a sports bar during March Madness, they’re there to yell at a screen and drown their sorrows in beer. Those are two very different moods.

Murphy’s Law of Comedy: If It Can Go Wrong, It Will

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/03/03

From broken mics to missing comics to drunk hecklers to tech disasters, sometimes Mr. Murphy is the real headliner. In this episode of Bar Comedy USA News, we dive into the unpredictable madness of live entertainment, and ask the age-old question: Why does the universe wait until show day to fall apart?

2025/02/20

It’s that time of year again—The World Series of Comedy is hitting Vegas, and comedians from all over the country are rolling into town, ready to battle it out for laughs, bookings, or maybe just to preserve their dignity. Who will win? Who will bomb? And most importantly—who will lose all their gig money at the blackjack table before their set? In this episode, we dive into the chaos, the competition, and the behind-the-scenes madness of one of the biggest comedy event...

Comedians, Beer, and the Big Game: A Super Bowl Party...

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/02/06

Hitting a Super Bowl party in Las Vegas thrown by a bunch of comedians, which is basically just an excuse to drink beer and yell at a TV we’re barely watching. Tune in for hilarious takes, football talk that quickly goes off the rails, and a deep dive into why comics love and hate Super Bowl Sunday.

How Comedy Made Me Soft

Bar Comedy USA News ·

2025/01/31

Turns out stand-up has made me downright feminine—because now, I look forward to Valentine’s Day and resent Super Bowl Sunday. I love the packed crowds of people on date nights who actually want to be entertained… and I dread the day America collectively decides that nachos and football are more important than comedians' rent money.
