Jeremiah Watkins is heralded as the comedian that made Judd Apatow fall in love with comedy again, and that's a quote from Judd himself! You may know him as 1/3 of The Wave from Comedy Central's "Roast Battle," as Moshpit (a roadie/hypeman) in "The Comedy Jam," or as 1/2 of the musical comedy super-duo Regan and Watkins during "Kill Tony," the #1 live podcast in the world. He performs stand up at all of the major clubs in Los Angeles throughout the week and became a paid regular in 2016 at the world-famous Comedy Store, getting his name painted on their prestigious wall in 2017. The Comedy Store is also the home for his wildly popular live show, "Stand-Up On The Spot," which just came off a hit run of shows at Montreal's Just For Laughs Comedy Festival and was named by "GQ Magazine" as one of the "5 funniest nights in America." Since moving to LA from Kansas, he has established himself as one of the most physical stand-up comedians in Los Angeles with his high energy and off-the-cuff style. He placed 2nd in the 2015 Big Sky Comedy Festival, and has performed at Just for Laughs, Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, TBS's New York Comedy Festival, South by Southwest, Riot LA, Moontower, and many other festivals throughout the country. Other film and tv appearances include: "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Netflix's "Historical Roasts," star of the film "i-Lived" (available on HULU), supporting in the film "The Bet" (available on Prime), and he can also be seen in the season 2 finale of HBO's "Crashing" with Pete Holmes. He is a graduate of the Second City, has trained at The Groundlings, and has performed improv all over Los Angeles. No matter what size the audience, Jeremiah Watkins guarantees a memorable show experience like you've never seen before.

The first time Akaash Singh performed in front of his friends in high school, he bombed. Of course, it’s a little more disheartening when the laughs don’t come while you happen to be on the mic at The Comedy Store in L.A.

You know, The Comedy Store, stomping grounds of Pryor, Seinfeld, Leno and… Singh? Akaash bombed there so badly that it was, well, almost funny. Before that night, he hopped on stage once every few months and called himself a comedian. After that night, he developed a singular focus on scrapping for as much stage time as possible while writing incessantly.

He went on a national tour in 2010 — from D.C. back to Cali, making certain to stop in his home state along the way with a performance at “The Festival of India” at The University of Texas.

He earned his first television appearance in 2011. He was one of a small handful of comedians selected to be a panelist on MTV’s “New Year’s Bash 2011,” making light of the celebrity news we all take too seriously. Then he piloted for a series with MTV Desi, which was approved for a full season. In 2013, He was chosen as a cast member on MTV2’s “Wild N Out.” In 2014, it was HBO’s “The Leftovers,” as well as MTV2’s "Guy Code." And more recently, he has just finished filming for the second season of MTV2’s “Joking Off.”

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.
