He’s made frequent appearances at Cincinnati staples of comedy (Go Bananas, Chameleon, and Wiley’s) as well as a Days Inn basement swingers’ bar and a crepe restaurant in Ocala, FL.
In addition to stand-up, he also spends his stage time hosting/producing an intense live talk show called COOL SHOW, MAN. that he publishes through Zorse Industries. Giles has worked with several famous comedians that he conversed with for hours in greenrooms and empty bars after shows.

Carrie Ross is an emerging comic and writer originally from Metro Detroit. Her peculiar takes on daily life and entertainment of absurd hypotheticals quickly helped her stand out among Boston's distinguished comics, and she’s since relocated to Brooklyn. Effortlessly funny, she manages to make even the darkest, most bizarre material hilarious and accessible to audiences, also she’d love it if you'd giggle before she has to return to the mothership. She's performed all over New England, New York and Baltimore, and has been featured in Thunderfest, The She-Devil Comedy Festival, The Women in Comedy Festival, The Boston Comedy Arts Festival, and The Charm City Comedy Festival

With a last name like that, Cleveland-based comic David Horning learned at a young age to lean into what bothers him using humor, and his comedy is a reflection of this. His optimistic slant on both mundane and heavy topics has gotten him selected to the New York Comedy Festival, Laughing Devil Comedy Festival, the Cleveland Comedy Festival, and on stages around the country. On top of stand-up, David teaches managers and executive teams to improve their workplace culture by developing their senses of humor, and he regularly appears on conference stages as the keynote speaker through his company, Water Cooler Comedy. He also produces several comedy shows around the Cleveland area and co-hosts the podcast “You Can’t Laugh At That,” which explores the psychology behind other comedians' jokes to prove why anything can be funny.

He can be seen on comedy stages across the city and has recently performed in the Mutiny Radio Comedy Fest, Cleveland Comedy Festival, Sixth City Comedy Fest, and the Midwestern Queer Comedy Festival. Renowned failure and a well educated idiot whose only contribution to this world will be when he is no longer in it, Gheramy is not sorry that you wasted your time reading this bio.
