Director of Campus Activities, Campus Comedy Show
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

"John did a great job. He showed up early and interacted with our students to get some inside information on our school. He was very approachable and easy to work with. Our students reacted very well to his act. I would love to use John again in the future!"

Director of Student Activities, Student Orientation
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
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."

"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."

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."

"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!

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."
