Our guests for the 6/20 show includes:
Kaseem Bentley - The enormity of Kaseem Bentley’s self-image is personified in the meticulous three-piece suit and the gigantic, patronizing, bright white smile he wears to every show. (“I look like a black public defense lawyer who’s never won a case,” he declared a while back.) He explodes onto a stage without a pause for breath between his first word and his last, berating audiences with his signature “insult comedy” honed on the Bay Area’s diverse and international crowds. He can riff with the best of them, often performing a set of only about half written material — the rest he whips up on the spot, inspired by the nearest audience members. He touches on racial stereotypes without being racist. He challenge conventions of being nice or PC on stage, yet he is able to keep the audience on his side by turning the insults as much on himself — and, of course, keeping them funny.
Kelly Anneken - Kelly Anneken is best known for producing the infamous Stud Comedy open mic in San Francisco from 2009-2011. She is now the producer of Comedy Night @ Farley’s East in Oakland, co-founder & artistic director of East Bay feminist sketch comedy troupe Femikaze, sketch writer for SF talk show “A Funny Night for Comedy,” managing editor of online humor journal Hobo Pancakes, and co-host of “Up Yours, Downstairs! A Downton Abbey Podcast.” In her copious free time, Kelly also performs standup comedy, as demonstrated here. You can learn more about Kelly and her limited HTML skills at www.kellyanneken.com..
Johan Miranda - Johan performs all over the Bay Area including Punchline, Rooster Ts and Tommy Ts. https://twitter.com/johanmeeranda
Ivan Hernandez - Ivan Hernandez combines dryness and yelling to discuss the important things in life, like food, women, drugs, and comic books. Ever since beginning stand-up in his teens, his performances have been marked by a loud, sarcastic, self-deprecating wit. He’s performed at the 2011 and 2012 Bridgetown Comedy Festivals, the 2012 SF Sketchfest, the Florida Supercon comic book convention, the San Francisco Punchline, Litquake, the Purple Onion, and the first San Francisco Comedy and Burrito Festival.

Daymon Ferguson - Daymon Ferguson hails from Hell. Or rather, Chico California, where he was born into a white trash tradition that he’s been trying to escape ever since. Six years of work as a lawyer have taught Daymon to truly despise lawyers. Since making the decision to quit law for comedy, he’s started to feel his soul growing back. It kind of itches.
Joe Nguyen - Subtle but sharp, laid-back yet engaging, Joe Nguyen is the smart slacker beloved by audiences for his easygoing delivery and well-written jokes. Raised in the state of Georgia by immigrants of Vietnamese and Jewish descent, Joe was destined to become a stand-up comedian. His unique perspective and likeable stage presence have made him a favorite at clubs, colleges, niche shows and private events throughout the country.
