“I just got done touring with Sam Tallent. He’s great. He put me in a grave every f*ing night. He put me in a f*ing grave. It was like people got to watch David Bowie and then I went up there trying to play hot cross buns on a recorder... You ever get intimidated following someone?... If Sam Tallent is in your town, and he will be because the guys a f*ing workhorse, go see Sam Tallent. I can’t say that enough.”
 - Kyle Kinane, “The Boogie Monster, “Rougarou”, June 19, 2018

Caitlin Weierhauser

This Portland comedian serves up coach vibes and delightfully unhinged enthusiasm. Often political, frequently personal, and entirely too tantrum-prone, Caitlin delivers arguments with equal parts glee and rage. They give the worst news about society with a dimpled grin and pointed outbursts.

She won Portland Helium Comedy Club’s Funniest Person Competition and was voted Favorite Comedian in the Willamette Week Readers Poll in 2017. They placed in the Top 5 Funniest in 2016. Caitlin came in top 3 at Big Sky Comedy Fest, and has performed for Bridgetown Comedy Festival (2015, 2016, 2017), Bumbershoot, Pickathon, All Jane Comedy Fest, and you can see them in Season 2 of The Benefits of Gusbandry on Amazon Prime!

COOL BIRTHDAY!

A brand spanking new, monthly comedy party at Liquid Laughs. Stand up, sketch, games, prizes, treats, possible confetti, probably some weird performance art, all on a monthly theme. You get the idea. It's fun. And it's for you!

Kermet Apio

Born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii, Kermet Apio enjoyed a childhood in paradise. He spent his time watching television, playing, and procrastinating everything else. To this day, he still does all three extensively.

After graduating from high school, Kermet moved to Seattle to attend the University of Washington. Seattle became home. In early 1989, Kermet did his first open mike night at the Comedy Underground in Seattle. Comedy was a fun hobby. In May of 1990, he quit his job, said good bye to health care and benefits, and took the leap to performing full time. It is still his only job skill.

He was the winner of the 2009 Great American Comedy Festival and has had numerous appearances on television and radio. He has showcased at comedy festivals in Aspen, Las Vegas, and Vancouver and has performed in 47 states and 3 Canadian provinces. He is a past winner of the Seattle Comedy Competition and was a semi-finalist in the San Francisco Comedy Competition. Also, in 1988 he was Dishwasher of the Month at the Sea-Tac Airport Denny’s.

Kermet is married and the proud father of two wonderful children. He enjoys his family, baseball, and pie. He does not enjoy opera, sitting in traffic, and writing about himself in the third person.

Ben Gleib

Ben Gleib was just named by TBS one of the "Funniest Comedians Working Today." He is host of the Emmy nominated game show “Idiotest” on GSN, with 210 episodes. It’s the most watched original program on the network. His hilarious hour standup special “Ben Gleib: Neurotic Gangster" (Showtime) is also available on Amazon Prime.

He's also a regular on “The Today Show” with Kathie Lee and Hoda, on their “Guys Tell All” segment, and you may have seen one of his many appearances on “@Midnight with Chris Hardwick” on Comedy Central. For years Ben was best known as one of the most frequent regulars on "Chelsea Lately" on E! with over 100 appearances!

His podcast "Last Week On Earth" on the Smodcast Network debuted on iTunes Comedy at #9, and was #1 on stitcher for 20 straight weeks. Gleib is the first comedian to ever live stream a full headline set on Facebook Live, and he did it for one show in each city on his last tour, 100% improvised. His act is chock full of hilarious material, but he's also one of the best improvisers in standup comedy.

He's been headlining comedy clubs around the globe since 2007, and has toured sold-out arenas with Chelsea Handler and Dane Cook.

Esquire once called him one of “Six comedians who could be comedy’s next big thing.” The other five were Aziz Ansari, Patton Oswalt, David Cross, Demetri Martin, and Flight of the Conchords. It came true for all of them and it now seems to be Gleib's time.

Al also shot his 100th episode of his BBC show Officially Amazing. 2018 continued to be great for Al as he sold his pilot Can I Kick It to truTV which is set to go to pilot later in 2018, it will be his first experience as an executive producer. Al brushed up on his acting chops shooting 4 episodes of Jim Jeffries show Legit on FX, he also has an hour special “Baby Steps” on NuVo and a half hour special on Comedy Central.

Steve Hofstetter

Author, columnist, and comedian Steve Hofstetter is often called the hardest working man in show-business. With all due respect to the late James Brown.

Hofstetter's national TV debut came on ESPN's Quite Frankly, where Stephen A. Smith yelled at him for three minutes. Hofstetter has also appeared on CBS' "Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson", Showtime's "White Boyz in the Hood", VH1's "Countdown", Sundance's "On the Road in America", and ABC's "Barbara Walter's Special", where he thankfully did not cry. He is the host and executive producer of "Laughs" on Fox networks, where he only cries occasionally.

One of the top booked acts on the college circuit, the original writer for collegehumor.com has also released six albums. Hofstetter has written humor columns for the New York Times, SportsIllustrated.com, and NHL.com, where he publicly admitted to being a Ranger fan.

After hosting Four Quotas on Sirius Satellite Radio for two seasons, Hofstetter moved to broadcast radio, and his Sports Minute (Or So) was syndicated on over 170 stations and in over 30 newspapers. Hofstetter's second live comedy album ("Cure For the Cable Guy") reached #20 on Billboard's comedy charts. His third album ("Dark Side of the Room") was the first ever pay-what-you-want" comedy album, since people were going to steal it anyway. His fourth album consisted of an hour of 100% ad-libbed material, which is, frankly, nuts. And his fifth album hit #1 on iTunes' comedy charts, which is also a bit nuts.

Hofstetter's brutal tour schedule consists of over 100 colleges and dozens of clubs every year, and is fueled by an immense online popularity, tons of press, and a Prius with great gas mileage. He reached 200,000 friends on Facebook and 400,000 more on MySpace, and high shelves in grocery stores.

While Hofstetter's live shows are routinely sold out, he is best known for his writing, first published at age 15, mainly to impress girls. At 18, he co-founded "Sports Jerk of the Week", an irreverent website featured by press like USA Today's Baseball Weekly, Sports Illustrated and CNN. And at 20, Hofstetter took a year off of school to head up web content for the New York Yankees. The Yankees won the World Series that year, which would have been wonderful if they hadn't beaten Hofstetter's Mets. Yes, he's also a Mets fan. Poor kid.

While an undergraduate at Columbia University, Hofstetter was a well-read columnist for the Columbia Daily Spectator and a voice of the Lions. After a summer writing for Maxim, ESPN, and Sports Illustrated for Kids, Hofstetter syndicated his column in several newspapers.
