Adam Richard (Feature)

When Adam Richard isn't telling jokes, he can be found soaring through the cosmos, searching for answers to questions that haven't been asked yet.  He doesn't like litter bugs and his dream job would be the official color-namer at Crayola Crayons.

Dylan Shelton (Guest)

Dylan Shelton is a comedian on the rise. Currently living in NYC, he was born and raised in Columbus. His act is autobiographical in the purest sense. Drawing from his anything but normal life he is not afraid to share anything with his audiences. While every story has a victim perhaps a job, relationship, or anyone or thing he comes across. If for some reason he can’t find a victim it probably means it’s him. He has opened for some the hottest names in comedy Anthony Jeselniik, Kyle Kinane, Hannibal Buress, Neal Brennan, Mike Vecchione and many others.

Ramon Rivas II (Host)

Despite being mexican, unemployed, carless and heavy, Ramon Rivas is one of the hardest working comedians to come out of Cleveland in years.  Combining his work ethic with a overtly chill stage presence, Rivas leaves an impression on every show he performs on. In 2011, he performed at the Just For Laughs Chicago Festival opening for Jo Koy at the historic Vic Theatre.

Rivas has become a fixture in the rich & deep Chicago comedy scene and has been working feverishly to make Cleveland a similar hub for great comedy. Between producing his own shows around town, being one of the club favorites at Hilarties and constantly searching out stage time, Rivas is becoming synonomous with comedy in Cleveland.

His blog has been quoted in the New York Times and his inconsistent personal journalism has led to him receiving props from one of the great comedy curators, Paul Provenza.

Not bad for a lovable stoner.
