Jeff Scheen is a stand-up comic hailing from the Michigan woods. His offbeat humor and affable demeanor pairs well with expressive yet stupid face. Jeff has been featured on the FOX TV series Laughs and was a finalist in the 2016 Laughing Skull Festival in Atlanta, GA. He’s also been in a number of other comedy festivals including The Bridgetown Comedy Festival, Montreux's Jokenation Festival, Laugh Your Asheville Off in North Carolina, and Laughfest in Grand Rapids Michigan.

Comedian and writer Gina Brillon was born and raised in Bronx, New York. She’s been a standup comic since she was 17 years old. Her first one hour special, ‘Pacifically Speaking, was produced by Gabriel Iglesias and will debut on NuvoTV in September 2014. She has a featured role in Gabriel Iglesias’ upcoming theatrical film, The Fluffy Movie. The film will be released in theaters on July 25th 2014. She’s made appearances on Comedy Central’s Live at Gotham, E!’s Chelsea Lately, AXS’ Gotham Comedy Live, The View, and is the first (and only) Latina winner of NBC’s 2012 Stand up for Diversity Showcase. She was selected to be part of Montreal’s Just For Laughs New Faces Showcase. Gina is also an accomplished singer, published writer, and poet. Her pieces have appeared in the New York Post and Daily News among others.

With a style best described as, “observation with an edge” comedian Robby Slowik is quickly establishing himself as someone to watch. Establishing himself as anything else would be a complete waste of time. After starting comedy in Tampa, FL Robby moved to Los Angeles where he became a regular performer at clubs, bars, and venues throughout Southern California. He has appeared in numerous festivals around the country and was a finalist in the 2014 and 2015 Laughing Skull Comedy Festival. He was also handpicked to participate in the prestigious Great American Comedy Festival. He has performed across the country and internationally and he can be seen and heard on Hulu, Seeso, Spotify, Pandora, and Sirius/XM. Robby is currently a writer on Jon Stewart's new HBO project and he has also written for MTV, SpikeTV, and a few major national ad campaigns. Robby now resides in New York City where he can be seen nightly getting up in clubs, alt rooms, and bars. He can also be seen eating 99¢ pizza more often than is probably ok.
