Funny Emcee in Camp Lejeune, NC

"Larry Weaver provided an excellent program for our Teacher Appreciation Banquet. He brought the house down. He was so funny, and the way he worked the audience was just out of this world. I asked for clean and funny and he gave me both. He was AWESOME!"

Teacher Assistant, Johnson Primary School

Magician in Evansville, IN

"We LOVED Lyndy! He met AND exceeded our expectations! I will say unequivocally, he was the funniest we have ever had in the past eight years of having this event! The crowd loved him and I have received several comments this morning as I came in the building to work about how great he was! He was there plenty early to get himself all set up, was very professional in every way. His joyful personality came through in every aspect. He connected with the audience - and the people he called to the stage were just the perfect ones to bring a belly laugh to the audience!! Who doesn't like to see the Dean of a school be made fun of in a good way!! His material was fresh. His introduction by the George Bush look-a-like was hilarious, as well! The audience has given nothing but positive feedback that evening as well as today!"

Executive Assistant to the President, Oakland City University

Executive Director, Oklahoma Association of School Business Officials

Motivational Speaker in Virginia Beach, VA

"After the seriousness that we had been through with our facilities and going through the pandemic we needed some comic relief and Larry certainly provided it! He had great stories that he could relate to our organization and work we do with students with special needs. He had lots of laughs and gave us lots of inspiration throughout his Keynote presentation. I appreciated the ease of working with him from first contact to his presentation. He made sure to find out what our organization is about and who the audience was so that he could tailor his performance to fit what we needed. The feedback from the attendees was quite positive and I heard people talking about his presentation throughout our conference. Definitely would recommend Larry to have at any event that you may have!"

Membership Services Committee Chair, Virginia Association of Independent Specialized Education Facilities

Motivational Speaker in Winslow, AZ

"We recently booked Larry for our Back-to-School opening day for staff. The communication between Larry and I was efficient, ensuring that all details were addressed in advance. Larry demonstrated a high level of professionalism. His humor was clean and appropriate, which was greatly appreciated by all in attendance. The uplifting message he delivered resonated perfectly with my staff, hitting all the key points we wanted to emphasize. Overall, planning for this event was easy and the outcome was exactly what we hoped for."

Superintendent, Winslow Unified School District

Stress Speaker in Onalaska, TX

"Lyndy was just what we needed. After a busy week of trainings and preparations for the new school year, Lyndy made us remember why we are in this profession; to stress less and laugh more. He did a great job giving us a personal trip from his childhood to adulthood through a power point and stories. Lyndy related how his teachers made an positive impact on his life. We just loved the whole act, tricks and all. Everyone wants him to come back!!"

Event Planner, Onalaska ISD

Virtual Comedian and Speaker in Fredericton, NB

"Larry performed an online comedic act for our High School Principals’ meeting. From the outset, beginning with the initial planning, Larry proved to be very accommodating and easy to work with. He willingly met for tech rehearsals and made sure that the quality of audio/video presentation was top notch. Larry carried himself with professionalism throughout and made sure the content for the actual presentation was clean, kind-hearted and included positive messaging. Further, he recognized the need to share positive messaging and tips for self-care and kindness regardless of external circumstances. We sincerely appreciate Larry’s professionalism, including the clean but entertaining messaging, and willingness to be adaptable and accommodating to suit the needs of our institution and its members."

Learning Specialist, Government of New Brunswick Department of Education and Early Childhood Development

Stress Speaker in Hawkins, TX

"What a fantastic, fun, and uplifting start to our school year this year with Lyndy's program as our kickoff event. Lyndy took the time to ask questions prior to his arrival so he could weave the "local lingo" into his performance. The magic tricks caught the attention of our staff and his small town stories that often paralleled our own opened the door for him to weave in the meat of his content. His prior conversations with our administrative staff with regard to our focus for the year then "magically" appeared in the programing to support our goals. The memories and shared experiences of that morning gave us visions to conjure back up as our in-service week progressed. It allowed us to laugh again together."

Superintendent, Hawkins ISD

Motivational Speaker in State College, PA

"Larry Weaver helped kick off our back to school professional development meetings. What a great way to start the year with laughter and an engaging and positive message. Larry was responsive, professional, and so easy to work with throughout the process. I would highly recommend booking him!"
