Let's welcome to the show, Mr. Greg Warren. He hails from St. Louis, MO, where his father was a high school wrestling coach and his mother made him play clarinet in the band. He has captivated audiences with anecdotes about the conflict inherent in meshing the two disparate high school identities of varsity wrestler and band geek. Greg’s “Flute Man” bit is a perfect encapsulation of the insecurities of high school and the ongoing quest to be cool, and is one of the most requested bits in the history of the Bob & Tom Show. Greg was also a West Point Cadet, where he distinguished himself by amassing an impressive tally of demerits and endless hours of pointless marching. After moving on to the University of Missouri, he studied journalism and became an All-American college wrestler.   You can find more of him here.

He is the largest selling comedy-recording artist in history, a multiple Grammy Award nominee and best selling author of 26 books. Widely known for his redneck jokes, his act goes well beyond that to explore the humor in everyday family interactions and human nature, a style that has been compared to Mark Twain’s. You can find more of him here.

Let's welcome to the show Mr. Steve Soelberg. Mr. Soelberg started performing stand-up comedy in 2007 as a New Year’s resolution. Since then he has performed on both coasts and a few places in between for crowds as large as 2,500 and as quaint as 7. Shy and quiet at parties Steve does comedy because he needs attention. He's also known for his likeness to actor Kevin Bacon. His comedy is intelligent, subtly sarcastic, and asinine with each show gaining fans and emails from good people, and fist bumps from people who do that kind of thing. As a Seattle native he recycles, never uses an umbrella, and loves dogs. You can find more from him here.

Let's welcome to the show Mr. Tommy Ryman. He was a semifinalist on NBC’s Last Comic Standing, is an acclaimed comedian.

So guess what, Dr. McClelland, here's another episode just for you! You can find more from him here.

I love Mr. Dane Cook ("DC"). Almost 10 years ago I saw him in Dallas and it was epic. His stories are glorious, and his visual humor is great. In this episode DC talks about how women win 99.99% of all arguments. You can keep up with him here.

Let's welcome to the show today, Mr. Kellen Erskine. He has a dry delivery, but his comedy slays. In this episode he covers shaving his legs, having a cordless landline, taking another person's shopping cart at the grocery store, and putting locks on bikes. His set gives me plenty of ideas how to troll people.

Let's welcome to the show the dapper Mr. Tyler Boeh. He looks sharp and his routine is sharper. He covers "trying" to have children, his lazy eye, and having too many Red Bull's. He's a beatboxing comedian. 

  Let's welcome to the show, Mr. Mike Speenberg. I love how he interacts with the audience and enjoys being on stage. His set includes catalytic converters, putting things on layaway, and being a teacher. You must go find some video of our featured comedian because the faces he makes are hilarious.

Let's welcome to the show a Louisville comedian, Mr. Bob Batch. For those of you around Louisville this week, you can see all the high speed laughter at The Caravan. Our featured comedian today has been at the comedy game for a long time, and if you can keep up with the pace, you'll crack up! His comedy resume is astonishing so we are in for a real treat.

Let's welcome to the show a high energy comedian, Mr. Andrew Rivers.  I'm super stoked to share this with you as he talks about visiting a prepper's bunker, and he dives into a topic that will have you roaring --- service dogs who shouldn't be service dogs.

We get to enjoy the one liners and dry comedy of the late, Mr. Mitch Hedberg. His one liners are hilarious, and his delivery will amaze you. In this episode he talks about escalators, his girlfriend, purchasing a donut, and going to a concert.

Let's welcome another Kentuckian to the show, Mr. Tom Mabe, who is well known for his pranks AND his brilliant comedy. We had another Kentuckian in yesterday's show, so it seems fitting to follow that up with a second Kentuckian. In this clip he talks about how he got started pranking others, and it's wicked funny. 

Welcome today's featured comedian, Mr. Josh Branham, who is originally from Kentucky. He's doing a special in Louisville THIS WEEK, so if you're in the area, go check him out. 

Let's all welcome comedian Mr. Mike Paramore to the show!  He totally kills it talking about buying cherry flavored Chapstick, Raman noodles, a relationship breakup, and he interacts with the crowd. Man, this is good! 

I love how our featured comedian this episode kicks off his set with a song. Welcome to the show, Mr. Mark Christopher Lawrence! His stories are HILARIOUS, eg, the story about doing a charity event where a guest needed to be resuscitated, being in the South (Missouri), large women in Missouri, fried foods, and other hilarities.

  Excellent featured comedian today with Mr. Josh Sneed. I'm still laughing even as I type this!

Our featured comedian, Mr. Andrew Hobbs, will have you cracking up within the first 10 seconds. Hilarious! He talks about being in a reality TV show, being a lesbian, and where he went to college.

This sarcastic humor will have you rolling in the floor. Mr. Spencer James talks about playing baseball, things he's seen at Home Depot, and keys to a successful marriage. The best part was him interacting with the audience.

What a gem. She is hilarious while talking about commercials, medications, the news, and she speaks to the (what I call) "over scheduled over stretched" culture.

Rounding out the FIRST week in the Start Every Day Happy podcast is Mr. Corey Rodrigues who kicks off this clip talking about the discrepancy between his Hispanic last name and being a Black comedian. His set is AMAZING. I love how he engages with the audience. His voices are hilarious.

One word - OUTSTANDING!  Our featured comedian kills his set while talking about getting older, entering his birth year online, riding escalators, life pre-cell phones, and millennials.

  You will die of laughter as you listen to today's featured comedian rip about having tattoos (LOTS of them), an overweight cat, feeding a dog Doritos Locos Tacos, sneezing in a babies face, and Wyoming        

I love how he talks about everyday things like cats and shopping at Costco. He kills it! Also, you have to find video clips of Zoltan, because his body language is hilarious! You can find out show schedule and more at his website.  What a great comedian to knock episode 2 out of the park. Ready? Let's go!
