Motivational Speaker for Montgomery Community College

"Larry Weaver presented at Montgomery Community College as part of our Welcome Back at the beginning of the fall semester. Larry responded to my initial inquiry and provided a quote within the same day. Additionally, he provided guidance in planning the event and incorporated information about the local area into his presentation. Larry was a pleasure to work with and our employees thoroughly enjoyed his hilarious keynote."

Dean, Technology & Learning Resources, MCC Training Day
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
Comedian for Southern Wesleyan University

"John was great to work with. He was friendly and professional, showed up early, and reminded me several times that he is flexible to work some things out. His show was hilarious and personal. He did his research and connected with our students personally. He rolled with the crowd well and kept people laughing. Some students came in skeptics, but left impressed. One student in particular came expecting to leave early, but stayed for the whole show due to how funny John was. After the show, John stuck around to meet students, take pictures, and speak with some of our leadership. I have already recommended him to another nearby college, and look forward to bringing him back here one day."

Coordinator for Campus Activities, Welcome Week
Motivational Speaker for University of Michigan

"Larry was clear in providing a positive message and outlook while sharing comedy and funny stories. We had a large team right after lunch, but Larry was able to engage the room and keep everyone focused. Along with speaking, Larry had a great PowerPoint with images that were fun to look at. He also included funny awards that really engaged everyone. Larry was very easy to communicate with and always prompt with responses for any questions or commutations that needed attention. The booking process was easy. Overall, Larry was prompt, friendly, hilarious, and everything you could hope for with an inspirational speaker."

SSC Employment Processing, Shared Services Staff Event
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."

Assistant Director for Student Leadership Development, Campus Comedy Show

Event Planner, Comedy Concert
Motivational Speaker for Florida State College at Jacksonville

"Larry’s presentation was engaging and captivating from the very beginning. He was able to seamlessly weave his unique comedy with meaningful content relevant to our event. He easily connected with our group and many expressed a desire to see him again. Larry shared a heartfelt story regarding a scholarship he received to assist his college expenses. This resonated with many of our staff as they provide services to students day-in and day-out regarding everything from registration and enrollment to records and financial aid. His emotional retelling of the story reflected his passion and understanding for what we do."

Administration Support Manager, FSCJ Student Services Professional Development Day
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 Central Methodist University

"John was a fabulous presence for our event. His humor was spot on and we loved how well he tied his jokes in with the happenings on campus. He was extremely courteous and professional, prompt, and very easy to work with. He had the audience in stitches for the whole show – building an instant rapport with them. We would be delighted to have him back any time."

Director, Center for Faith and Service, Campus Concert
Comedian for Crestview High School

"John did a great job relating to the kids both during the performance and at the after-event. We appreciate him sharing his talent and his story."
