Joe Praino's Credits and BIO:

Joe Praino is a comedian, actor and podcast host, who was honored to be part of the elite “New Faces” showcase at the Just For Laughs Montreal Comedy Festival. He has two successful podcasts: Dirty Sports (with Andy Ruther), which showcases his immense depth of sports knowledge, and the baseball centric Dirty Slides (with Andy Lazarus). He has interviewed the likes of comedy writer/director David Zucker, NFL stars Shawn Merriman and Pat McAfee, celebrity personal trainer Duffy Gaver and NBA star Brian Scalabrine. Praino performs standup at several clubs across the country and in Canada, including Gotham Comedy Club, The Stand, The Cellar, The Laugh Factory, House of Comedy, The Improv, Flappers and the Westside Comedy Theater.
A native New Yorker, Praino worked the club circuit and was a CBS Page and a Desk Assistant at the Evening News With Dan Rather before standup comedy eventually won out as his full-time pursuit. He earned regular spots at the Comic Strip Live and Boston Comedy Club and he hosted his own variety show, Miscellaneous, at Galapagos in Brooklyn. Praino has had several indie film roles and appearances on “The Curse of Von Dutch” (Hulu), “Now We’re Talking,” “Gotham Comedy Live” and several episodes of “ESPN Instant,” with some of his favorite analysts and commentators. A sports enthusiast, he’s had the distinct mind-blowing honor of throwing out the first pitch at a Mets game and he’s taken up golf, which was once on his “things not to do list.” Praino lives in sunny CA with his surfboard and foster dogs.

Lachlan Patterson's Credits and BIO:

At an early age, Lachlan Patterson knew that he would have to use his sense of humor to get him through tough situations. At the age of 19 he performed his first show at an amateur night in his hometown of Vancouver, B.C.

After several years spent learning the art of stand-up comedy, Patterson started to find his stride and began touring throughout Canada, landing him at festivals like Montreal’s Just for Laughs, the Halifax Comedy Festival and the Aspen Rooftop Comedy Festival.

His television appearances include The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Comedy Central’s Live at Gotham, Tosh.0, the FX comedy Legit and VH1’s Sexiest Artists. Patterson’s debut album Jokes to Make Love To made Rooftop Comedy’s top 10 albums in its first year and continues to be a major seller on Amazon and iTunes.

In his free time, Patterson co-host’s his weekly podcast The Kooks of Komedy, with fellow comedian Joe Praino, where they discuss surfing, comedy and their personal lives.

Lachlan built his recent fanbase week after week by impressing the judges with his accessible, sarcastic observational comedy on the recent primetime hitm Last Comic Standing. He finished the field of hundreds as the runner up and fan favorite. "So funny. So great. Your writing is fantastic and your delivery is one of a kind. I think you could take this whole show" says LCS judge Rosanne Barr. Even Russell Peters mentioned he’d love to go on tour with Lachlan.
