Kivi Rogers
Mr. RogersAt one time Kivi Rogers was just your average computer geek, working nine to five with a reputable company who spent his downtime harassing coworkers with jokes and comical voices. Eventually (in what we think it was a clever ploy get him out of the office), his workmates talked him into trying out his antics on stage during a local open mic night. Luckily for them, he loved the spotlight so much that he swore off his 9-to-5 job and became a full-time comedian. Kivi is a Tonight Showveteran and has appeared on the hit shows The West Wing, Everybody Loves Raymond, andDharma & Greg. Kevin Nealon
Now Hear Me Out!During his nine year run on Saturday Night Live comedian/actor Kevin Nealon not only hosted Weekend Update, he also introduced us to a number of memorable characters including The Subliminal Man, Hanz and Franz, and Mr. No Depth Perception. Since then, Kevin's been featured in a variety of films such as Happy Gilmore and Anger Management and currently stars in Showtime's hit series Weeds. Oh, and did we mention that he also just became a first-time father at the age of 53? The process of having a child at an age when other dads are sending their children to college was was such an adventure, he decided to chronicle it in his new book, Yes, You're Pregnant, But What About Me?He covers these topics and more in his new comedy special, Now Hear Me Out, which is now out on DVD. Greg Hahn
He's Got the BeatWhen comedian Greg Hahn takes the stage, he does so with an energetic, all-out style of physical humor, one-liners and crowd work like you've never seen before. And once he lets loose, there's no stopping him because Hahn doesn't have time for laughs, he's out to create immediate pandemonium and panic. Hahn can wear an audience out with his rapid-fire jokes and leave them holding their sides, trying to catch their breath. Greg is one of the most manic comedians to ever enter our studio, something that was only amplified when we sat him in front of a full drum set last time he was here. Find the ringtone below. Tim Gaither
A Man on the MoveAs a child, Tim Gaither was constantly on the move, but not in an A.D.D. sense of the word; it was more in the spirit of his parents can’t pay the bills so we’ve got to leave town. One the bright side, this forced him to develope his sense of humor as a tool to meet people, make a name for himself and keep bullies from kicking his ass. These days, those skills are still coming in handy, only now he uses them as a traveling comedian.
