“..started out pretty weird but wound up being damn funny.” – Esquire Magazine, August 2013
A stand-up comedy showcase produced and hosted by Chad Riden, featuring sets from various comedians traveling around the country and some of his favorite comedy buddies from Nashville. Comics are booked in advance but there are always several shorter “bucket” spots available for anybody in the audience. The show is always loose, weird, and also pretty hilarious. If you don’t go, you’re dumb and nobody will ever love you. For booking considerations, contact N’Sup.

Owen Straw & Seth Cockfield: Endless Summer Tour plus Danny Whitson and Chad Riden.
Owen Straw’s comedic style of absurdist literalism has been capturing the hearts of audiences for years. Bringing a unique energy and deceptive intelligence to his bizarre jokes, Straw’s act weaves from quick one liners to real life stories about failure and heartbreak and sometimes a sing-a-long.
From improvising brilliant and unpredictable rants for crowds of jaded comedy nerds to pounding out joke after joke for rowdy drunks in the roughest road rooms, Owen Straw gets big laughs in any environment.
Owen Straw has won championships in pizza eating and semi-professional wrestling, released a handful of punk rock records, created the World Extreme Pencil Fighting Championships, and appeared in movies and television, including the Daytime Emmy winning PBS series BizKid$. He lives in Brooklyn, where he produces Big Ups at Little Skips, a weekly after hours comedy show in a closed coffee shop.
Seth Cockfield is a comedian living in Brooklyn, NY. He’s a regular headliner at the world famous Velveeta Room in Austin, TX. He’s appeared at the Out of Bounds Comedy Festival, Hell Yes Fest in New Orleans, and Fun Fun Fun Fest. Most recently, he was a featured comic in the Week at the Creek series at the Creek and the Cave, in Long Island City.

Jordan Jensen with Josh Wagner, Mary Jay Berger, Gary Fletcher, Josh Lewis and a MYSTERY GUEST COMIC!? plus your host Chad Riden.
Jordan Jensen was born and raised in Ithaca, NY. After graduating with a degree in Philosophy, pursuing comedy seemed like a good choice. She began doing stand-up in the fall of 2014 in Buffalo, NY. A few months later she moved to Nashville, TN to be a part of that growing comedy scene and quickly became a local favorite. Jensen’s comedy focuses on calling herself out during anecdotes that range from social, to sexual, to the the daily nonsense that comes with being alive.
