One of my favorite corporate comedians or comedian speakers is Kansas City comedian Mark Mayfield. He, like me, is a motivational humorist, but got his start in comedy. And it shows on stage… he is REALLY funny.
I’ve known Mark for years since we did a showcase together. He’s always been totally […]
This is so sad. You might have read that comedian Rechard Jeni shot himself. One of the funniest people in the country couldn’t deal with whatever he was facing and ended it all for himself.
In my seminars and keynotes, I frequently have audiences who miss the crucial difference between the need to be […]
In this episode, I interview corporate comedian and inspirational / motivational speaker Steve Rizzo. Based out of New York, Steve uses his skills learned as a stand up comedian in his current job as a motivational speaker to teach people how to find their inner Humor Being.

(My interest in weird comedian stories comes from the recent release of Comedy War Stories.)
From: 8 Questions with a comedian: Johnny Millwater
Here’s an excerpt:

For this episode, we interview corporate comedian and humorist Mark Mayfield, from Kansas City, Missouri. Mark defines humor as “surprise that evokes good […]
Colorado Comedian Josh Blue just won Last Comic Standing. Why?
Yes he was funny. Yes he was talented. Yes his jokes were good. But the main reason why he beat the others is because he is likable.
All of the comics were funny. (Ok, some more than others.) But what Josh has is charm and a huge […]
