Theo Von
Every Night is College Night Theo Von is a big fan of colleges. He loves performing at them almost as much as he loved attending them. He had enough practice when he was younger, having attended over six in his academic career. Aside of seeing him on campus, you might have also seen Theo on NBC’s “Last Comic Standing” season four, “Live at Gotham” and “Reality Bites Back.” Doogie Horner
Doogie vs. AmericaDoogie Horner is a graphic designer turned stand-up comedian came into the national spotlight on the NBC summer reality show "America's Got Talent." He was the stand-up comedian that started getting booed before he even told his first joke. With some quick thinking and a few good barbs for people in the front row, Horner was able to turn the tables on the crowed and eventually get their support. Though he didn't win "AGT", he was named the fourth funniest comedian in Philadelphia by comedy.com and his writings have been featured in the McSweeney's Joke Book of Book Jokes. Alonzo Bodden
Though he didn’t begin his career as a standup comic, there is absolutely nothing that could ever make Alonzo Bodden give it up now. Once he took the stage and got a taste of what it was like to entertain, Bodden was hooked and has not looked back since. Before comedy, Alonzo was an airline mechanic, working on everything from Lear jets to Stealth Bombers. It was during one of his stints as a trainer that Alonzo found he could leave a crowd in stitches without even having to pick up a wrench. All he needed was a little motivation to turn his natural comedic talent into a career in standup. This came in the form of being fired. Since then, Bodden has been touring the country, as well as traveling around the globe with the USO. According to Alonzo, this means he is the only guy who’s both built bombers and performed for their pilots. Look for his new one-hour live comedy special "Who's Paying Attention?"
