So, this is pretty cool. I was selected as one of 12 finalist by CMT to compete in their “Next Big Comic” Contest” and it will take place on their website – cmt.com. Is this a ploy to drive traffic to their website and get some new visitors? Maybe it is, but as I have never allowed myself to compete in one of these contest before, I figured this one was a good first time.

You can vote as many times as you want (hint hint) and you can text FUNNY12 to 32709  – as many times as your wireless provider will allow!

I have not partaken in contests that require you to hassle people for votes because I find them annoying. But, they much like a lot of other things in this business, have become a common occurrence. I am looking forward to being a part of it because the other comics they selected are all really good and some of them are friends of mine. So, it is really cool to be included in their company for such a thing.

I apologize in advance if you get tired of my requests for votes, but keep in mind that this contest last 5 weeks if I make it to the end. It will either be me hassling you for over a month or less. Thanks so much if you do take the time to vote for me and help me get successful enough to not sleep on my futon. You are the best!

I’m excited to announce that I will be headlining a proper comedy show at Canal Street Tavern in Dayton, Ohio, my humble hometown on February 16th.  This is going to be an awesome show with some very funny friends of mine.  The whole thing has been imagined, booked and arranged by one of the coolest and most radical people in the world, Erika.

Also on this show will be Dave Waite, Mike Cody, Alex Stone, Reid Faylor, and Ben Lyons.  We are sure to have one hell of a time and we shall be rejoicing with spirits and the like afterwards.  Won’t you please come on out and partake in the one of a kind ambiance that only Canal Street can offer.  It is a real honor to be performing on a stage that has been graced by so many great musicians.

Admission is only $5 if you are 21 or older and $7 if you are a younger comedy fan.  If this show is successful, there will be more to follow.  So, let’s come out of the gate with a BANG!  9 pm showtime

This is the video that some company that rents homes rejected as a website promo and/or advertising for their company that Mike Cronin and I put together. I think it is funny and that they probably just do not have a good sense of humor. But, then again, maybe it doesn’t quite hit their target demographic? What do you think? Please feel free to leave your comments here.

For the record, people wearing ties as a rule should not be making creative and/or comedy content decisions. Also for the record, I have no way of knowing if whomever rejected this video was actually wearing a suit and tie at the time. Maybe it was a pants suit instead? I just like proving to myself that people in suits do not share the same vision of comedy that I have. Will I ever be mainstream? Aren’t I already? Truth be told, I’m having too much fun doing what I am doing right to even worry about that. I hope you like the video and keep in mind that my exciting new docu-web series will be premiering very soon! Maybe it should be doc-web series?
