Positive Regard Network

"We have multiple private schools as well as staff support in local school districts in Western Massachusetts. I was given the task of finding a motivational speaker to complete our yearly week-long training for our upcoming year. When I suggested possibly getting a comedian for the event, it was received with mixed commentary. Larry Weaver was a great find, as he advertised clean humor with a positive message. Communication with Larry made the whole process quite effortless and diminished any anxieties I may have had. On the day of the event, Larry was exceptionally professional and outstanding in his delivery. He blended key points and themes into his presentation that were previously touched upon during that week. Our mix of Teachers, Interventionist and Administrators truly enjoyed the experience."

"Larry Weaver hit it out of the park! We had a Teacher Appreciation event, and his motivational speech was spot on. The crowd loved him, and we even received raving reviews from the teachers themselves. From start to finish it was so easy and seamless to work with Larry. He was on time, prepared and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. There was clean comedy and real life, funny experiences he shared with us. All while teaching a great lesson and inspiring the teachers and other attendees in the room. There were plenty of materials to choose from to put in our brochures for the event and instructions for what needed to be done to prepare for his arrival were easy to follow. He was very low maintenance compared to some other speakers we have had. Truly just a pleasure to work with and all at a very reasonable price. You won't break the bank booking this funny, professional and inspiring speaker. I highly recommend him for your next upcoming event!"

"Our Welcome Back Convocation is how we launch each new school year. Over 1100 faculty and staff gather to get motivated to welcome back our students, celebrate achievements, and fellowship with each other. Larry Weaver helped make our August convocation become one of the most memorable in the 31 years we have held the event! After an exhaustive, months long search, our leadership team decided to invite Larry to be a presenter at our gathering; he didn’t disappoint. Larry was easy to work with and responsive to communication, and his performance on stage was wonderful. It was packed with audience-appropriate comedy that kept us laughing! Our team loved Larry’s jokes that tied in perfectly with his message of positivity."

"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!"

"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."

"It was great having Larry Weaver as a speaker at our Southern California School Nutrition Association meeting. During this pandemic, our stress levels are high, and we needed to laugh. And he made us laugh! Larry weaved together jokes with the messages that we as an executive board have been sending to our members this year. Attendees communicated to me that they appreciated his humor. We also appreciated his promptness in communication as we were scheduling our agenda as well as his promptness that day. Joining us in advance of his time slot showed that he cared. Larry spent that extra time assessing and getting to know the audience.

Missouri State Teachers Association

"I was nervous to take on the task of choosing entertainment options for our state convention as we had to move it to a virtual platform due to Covid. We normally have hundreds participate when we are in-person, but who wants to be online for virtual entertainment after being on a computer all day? As it turned out, a lot of people do. Larry made the whole process simple. He is responsive, understands how to deliver a comedy show virtually and he even researched the situation in our state to customize his show and connect with our participants. He is a funny guy and brought some much-needed laughter to a large group of educators in a great virtual comedy show. Our feedback was great and we heard from so many who said that they needed a laugh so badly and that his virtual comedy was such a great choice for our convention entertainment. Larry gave us clean comedy, perfect for a professional setting. Thanks, Larry!"

Larry was an absolute pro to work with!

Best of all, my team had a blast and even enjoyed some live bantering with Larry during his act!"
