Comedian in Durham, NC

"Mike was awesome! We appreciate his professionalism and flexibility. He interacted with the audience and kept them engaged."

Public Communications Specialist, North Carolina Central University

Motivational Speaker in Thomasville, NC

"Larry Weaver inspired and encouraged our School Nutrition professionals all while keeping us laughing! During the initial ironing out of details as well as the days leading up to the event, Larry was quick to respond and easy to work with. He was knowledgeable of the audience and sensitive to the feel of the room. He made his presentation even more personable by tying it all back to his mother, who worked in a cafeteria for many years. I would recommend Larry to be your next keynote speaker!"

School Nutrition Director, Davidson County Schools

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!"

Teachers were coming up to me saying "OMG, thank you so much" and one teacher had tears in her eyes from laughing so hard! He was spectacular! He arrived early, was extremely professional in action and speech and connected well with our audience. He had them engaged the entire time he was up! If you ever need someone to spread his name, I will do that because I believe in what he did for our faculty and staff!"

"Lyndy was a perfect addition to our staff appreciation event. With over 600 staff in attendance, It was evident that Lyndy is very comfortable in front of a large crowd. He is able to adapt his performance to just about any audience. His ability to involve the audience in his show really makes him stand out above the rest. If you are looking for a high-energy, motivating and funny entertainer, I highly recommend Lyndy."

"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

Virtual Comedian and Speaker in Columbia, MO

"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!"

Member Service Coordinator, Missouri State Teachers Association

Comedian in Washington, DC

"We were very pleased with Greg. He was charming to work with and we will definitely consider using him again next year. The crowd loved him."

Vice Chair, Center for Plain Language

Motivational Speaker in Lexington, TN

"Larry was a fantastic speaker who would be warmly welcomed again! The Southwest Tennessee School Nutrition managers in attendance enjoyed the humor, teamwork tips, and personalized message that he shared, especially made even more relevant because Larry’s mother’s was a school nutrition employee for many years. Not only did he present well, he was flexible, accommodating, and very easy to work with prior to our event. Communication was always prompt, professional, and friendly. Booking was a breeze and the promotional materials provided were easy to utilize for participants. Larry’s positive personality and presentation were a great way to kick off our school year!"
