Benefit for Radio Free Nashville @ SPiFFY SQUiRREL Comedy Show (The East Room) 1/4/2015

Indie Bohemians Comedy Show / Benefit for WRFN Radio Free Nashville. Featuring comics from the Indie Bohemians Morning Show: Ron Placone, Paulina Combow, Rob Haynes + guests.

Indie Bohemians Morning Show is a NEW Morning Show based on WRFN Pacifica-Affiliate Radio Free Nashville in Nashville, TN and can be found online on iTunes, Podomatic, and iHeartRadio. Proudly bearing the banner of “a Morning Show for people who hate Morning Shows” and/or “the thinking person’s Morning Show,” the Indie Bohemians straddle the solid middle ground between Howard Stern and NPR, punk rock and polish, pop culture and politics and everything in between, all kept together by two comedian Millennials trying to make sense of this crazy planet of ours. Fueled by caffeine and the hunch that there’s gotta be an option on the morning dial for “people that like the Smiths,” IBMS continues on their path armed with creative contributors, a solid tune selection, and the creative freedom radio used to have pre-Clear Channel.

Ron Placone is a comedian who tours the country relentlessly. He is a member of The Young Turks Network on YouTube and his satirical news segment, Thoughts, Rants & Cold Coffee is nationally-syndicated via the David Pakman Show. Aside from stand-up he tours college campuses speaking on issues of media policy and consolidation via his lecture/performance, Madness in the Message. After years of being a regular call-in air-talent for Quinn’s AM Army in Chambersburg, PA, Ron’s behind the mic now along with his co-host on the Indie Bohemians Morning Show.

Paulina Combow is a comedian, pug-enthusiast and pop-culture aficionado. With sass and Southern-charm, Combow co-produces the comedy-variety show, Comedy Pug Hugs at Mad Donna’s. She has studied at Second City in Chicago and is active in Nashville’s Film and Sketch Communities.

SPiFFY SQUiRREL is Nashville’s only truly independent, underground professional weekly alt comedy show. Featuring touring comedians from all corners of the earth, plus outstanding local regulars who are worth paying attention to. Sundays at 6:30pm at The East Room for just $5 cover. Produced and hosted by Nashville’s Chad Riden.

The Heroes of Hilarity: Viet Huynh & Mia Jackson @ SPiFFY SQUiRREL Comedy Show (The East Room) 3/9/2014

The Heroes of Hillarity show will be taking up donations to go the Brian E. Kiley Memorial Fund. Brian E. Kiley (one of the founders of the show) was a great Nashville-based comedian who passed away on February 17th, 2013 in a car accident. All proceeds will go to his family.

Viet Huynh (pronounced like “hwin”) was born and raised in Goose Creek, SC and began his stand-up comedy career in Atlanta, GA. Moving forward, Viet has used that initial positive buzz to quickly become a favorite at many comedy clubs and venues across the nation.

Viet Huynh has put together shows such The Affirmative Action Comedy Showcase, The Heroes of Hilarity, and An Intimate Evening of Comedy and Rap Music. Viet balances his structural engineering career with a rigorous schedule of multiple performances each week at various comedy clubs and venues. By doing so he has created a new profession by the name of “Comedic Engineering”; the design and delivery of jokes and punchlines. Viet has shared the stage with many well known comedians and has won a few comedy competitions along the way.

Viet derives a lot of his humor from his life of being an Asian-American growing up in the South, observational and nerd humor, and relationship issues.

Viet Huynh can be found online at ComedianViet.com, Twitter.com/ComedianViet, Facebook.com/vhuynh625.

Here’s video of Viet’s standup:

Mia Jackson, a native of Columbus, Georgia and a self proclaimed know it all, wondered what would happen if she took her sense of humor to the stage. That’s exactly what she did! After graduating from the University of Georgia she hit the local comedy scene and has thrilled audiences since day one.

To her credit she has appeared on Oxygen’s Girls Behaving Badly and TLC’s Wild Weddings. She was also a writer on BET/Centric’s re-launch of the Soul Train Awards in 2009 and 2010. In 2012, Mia was a finalist in the Laughing Skull Festival. She recently taped a spot on NickMom’s Night Out and opened for Dave Chapelle.

Mia is a diverse comedienne with a different voice and perspective. Her energetic conversational style leaves the audience feeling refreshed and as if they have known her forever. Smart, funny, and versatile, Mia entertains all types of crowds.
