Comedian for Harding University

"John put on an amazing show! Very funny and very relevant to our student body! John spent the day gathering information about our campus and visiting with students so that our night was tailored to us! It's hard to find a comedian who will do that. We loved John and would have him back!"

Director of Campus Life, HU Family Weekend
Clean Comedian for North Carolina Community College Instructors

"Larry Weaver was absolutely hilarious, everyone was absolutely raving about his show. He is highly professional and very attentive to his audience."

Sales Director, Pearson Education, NCCCI Annual Meeting
Comedian for Valley Forge Christian College

"John exceeded our expectations in every way. He was prompt, professional, and truly connected with our students. In fact one student compared him to Jonathan Winters, high praise from my perspective. His material was spot on, that is general and specific to our campus. We look forward to having him back at some point."

Chief Operating Officer, Senior Banquet
Funny Juggler for Harding University

"Paul Miller was amazing. His high level energy was exactly what we were looking for. Even before the stage lights came on he was out entertaining the early arrivals with slight of hand illusions. You will love his non-stop crowd interaction. If you're looking for an entertainer who goes above and beyond, book Paul Miller. If you're looking for an entertainer who will make you laugh, book Paul Miller. If you're looking for an entertainer who will leave you amazed and asking for more... you know where I'm going, book Paul Miller!"

Director of Campus Life, Family Weekend
Comedian for Ave Maria University

"John was the perfect fit for our New Student Orientation. Of course he was hilarious, which is always a plus when you are hiring a comedian! Even more impressive was his ability to relate to the students. He definitely spent a lot of time researching our school, which shows that he really loves what he does. We also appreciated how he took the time after the show to talk to the students and spend time with them. I definitely recommend John."

Student Activities Coordinator, New Student Orientation
Comedian for Judson University

"I have received nothing but rave reviews about John. He did his homework to learn about our University before arriving and utilized the unique components of Judson in his routine. He even used a couple of pictures from our website and the students just loved the fun he poked at their university. Homecoming could be a unique challenge for a comedian as the audience is comprised of both current students as well as alumni from different generations. However, his humor was enjoyed by all as much of the jokes were personal to a common experience - Judson University. John arrived in advance of his scheduled time and took the opportunity to connect with some students as well as the Tech Producer for the event. John made sure that none of his jokes would be inappropriate by running some of them by me in advance of his performance. Needless to say, he was always appropriate, yet very funny."

Director of Alumni Relations, Homecoming
Comedian for Asbury University

"We are not used to having comedians here at Asbury, so having John was a unique experience. And what a great event it turned out to be! John was great with communication preceding the performance and gave prompt replies and excellent info on what he was hoping and what he needed. It was very simple to host him. His needs were minimal and so it was easy to prepare for his time here. The event was very well attended. The students packed out our Student Center and it was fun to hear them relaxing and enjoying the time. There seemed to me to be a great connection between the students and John. They stayed the whole time and laughed a lot at his jokes. I was really happy with the turn out and response. He was professional and easy to work with."

"Joshua was magnificent. The students and faculty in attendance thoroughly enjoyed his show. It was spot on in terms of content and length.
