Ira Summer is so funny, you don’t realize that his material is clean. He uses his pain to make you laugh. As an aging Baby Boomer growing up in a large dysfunctional family, Ira has a lot to share. He appreciates his sons, siblings and mother because without them, he would have to write all of his own material.
Ira has performed at clubs, casinos, colleges and bars in 28 states, and can be heard on Sirius XM. He has been a finalist in the The World Series of Comedy and The US Comedy Contest, was the winner of the nation’s first Over 60 Comedy Competition.
Oakland, California comedian Jason Cole has a quick-witted, high energy style and subversive point of view that finds humor, laughs and silver linings in the dark corners of his mind, human history, and the crumbling world around us. He also has a great bit about bird feeders.
Jason has performed all over California and across America, including Gotham Comedy Club NYC and both San Jose and Hollywood Improvs. Other credits include SF Sketchfest, Chicago Nerd Comedy Festival and 1st place in the Laughs Unlimited By All Means comedy competition.

A former construction worker, his relatability bonds him to audiences that don’t take him or his jokes too seriously.
