Known For: "Jay and Silent Bob," "Clerks" & "Dogma"

It's apparent that Jay Mewes, the vocal half of "Jay and Silent Bob," is a toned-down version of his iconic loudmouth character — a fast-talking, foul-mouthed, over-sexed but ultimately harmless guy. Outrageously inappropriate and oddly loveable, Mewes gets down and dirty with his audiences, leaving no raunchy stories untold.

Career Highlights: Roles in anything Kevin Smith has written ("Mallrats," "Chasing Amy," "Clerks II," "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back," and "Zack and Miri Make a Porno"); appearances in "Degrassi," "Comic Book Men," and "@midnight;" cohost of "Jay & Silent Bob Get Old" podcast

Jeremy Essig is the former bass player and guitarist for late-90’s (way) underground bands Box of Rocks and The Flaming Moes.

To many, however, Jeremy is best known as a stand-up comedian and writer. His comedy, described in NUVO magazine as “Intelligent Cynicism,” walks the line between “smart” comedy and mindless indulgence. In a matter of minutes, Essig can move seamlessly between current events and kitchen appliances, weaving the two together with a nod to his love of pop culture.

Watching veteran comic Bill Bellamy perform is getting a glimpse into what makes this man tick. With an effortlessly smooth approach, Bellamy discusses topics and themes that we've heard a thousand times before (like sex and relationships) but with his unique, hilariously raunchy point of view.

Shaun Murphy is a comedian originally from Buffalo, NY, who has performed in many clubs and colleges throughout North America. He has told jokes at prestigious places like the Boston Comedy Festival and the Asheville Comedy Festival to less prestigious places such as a high school graduation party with a broken microphone. He has been lucky enough to feature for a diverse group of headliners such as Dave Attell, Michael Ian Black, Jen Kirkman, Tom Green, and Mark Normand.

Shaun’s likability and awkwardness keeps audiences captivated whenever he performs. However, he thinks it’s really weird to impress strangers by talking about his accomplishments but hopefully it worked. If not, that’s okay too. He currently lives in New York City and has no money.

Fresh off of "America's Got Talent"

Despite being born with a disability in both arms, Ryan Niemiller, the self-proclaimed “Cripple Threat of Comedy,” shares his views of the world from the perspective of the handicapped.

Ryan began his comedy career in Los Angeles, California, and hasn’t looked back since, performing in clubs and colleges across the country. Covering topics such as dating, trying to find employment, and attempting to find acceptance in a world not designed for him, Ryan tackles the issues in a way that makes you think while laughing the entire time.

With his quick wit, great timing, and a gimmick that only he can exploit, Ryan hopes to prove to the comedy world that he may be unarmed, but he is dangerous.
