Featuring:

Julian Rodgers - Julian Rodgers is a Columbus based comedian who performs regularly around the country and one time in Canada and Japan. He ran Ohio State’s Buckeye Stand Up Comedy Club, was a finalist in the Columbus Comedy Clash, and performed at the Columbus Comedy Festival. He tells stories about his Catholic guilt and every inconvenience that he’s experienced in life. He also enjoys movies, basketball, and ice cream. You can follow him everywhere @notjulianr.

Haikal - Haikal hails all the way from Malaysia and is learning as much as he can about America through stand up comedy. He now performs stand-up all around Columbus at clubs such as Hashtag Comedy Club and The Attic. He was also a prominent member of the Buckeye Stand Up Comedy Club at Ohio State — performing regularly in their monthly shows. Haikal was also selected for the first ever Columbus Comedy Festival in 2024. You can follow him on instagram @haikal_roz.

Tye Erskin - Tye Erskin is a stand-up comedian known for sharp wit, unexpected punchlines, and a fearless approach to everyday absurdity. Blending real-life stories with quick-fire commentary, Tye has performed at clubs and festivals across the country, leaving audiences laughing and occasionally questioning their life choices. Whether riffing on relationships, social norms, or their own questionable decisions, Tye Erskin brings smart, unpredictable energy to every stage.

Simone Martel - Simone Martel, from Western Pennsylvania, is the co-president of Kenyon College’s standup comedy group. She is also involved in screenwriting & satirical writing, film production, and theatre. She is in a Maroon 5 tribute band and is toying with the idea of doing combat sports.

Lukas Mateus - Lukas Mateus has been doing comedy for 10 years and still makes chicken for a living. He’s performed at clubs from coast to coast, been on K*ll Tony 3 times, opened for headliners like Josh Johnson, Ian Bagg and Jason Banks and lost 3 roast battles at the world famous Comedy Store… And still he makes chickens just as good if not better than his jokes!

Ricky McCoy - Ricky McCoy started comedy in the summer of 2024. Throughout his senior year, he attended open mics every night and would sometimes sleep in his car so he could get to class on time the next day. He has featured on the Attic Yo mama roast battle and performed in Hashtags comedy clash competition. He recently started a podcast that you can watch on his YouTube channel: Ricky McCoy Comedy and his instagram is :@rickccoycomedy

Josh Osani - Josh Osani originally hails from the Detroit metro, but now resides in Columbus. Single, no kids, two cats! He considers himself to be one of the dirtiest clean comedians in America. His style includes storytelling, act outs, and crowd work.

Josh Ostroff - Josh Ostroff is a “comedian” who somehow tricked people into thinking they were funny. With the delivery of a malfunctioning robot and punchlines that could put a crowd to sleep, Josh brings a level of awkwardness rarely seen outside of middle school talent shows. Their jokes miss the mark so often, it’s almost impressive. Audiences can expect painful silences, uncomfortable glances, and a general sense of “how did this person get here?” Catch them at Hashtag Comedy Club and watch in awe as they defy all expectations of comedy—and basic human decency.

Cater Seipel - Carter Seipel has been doing stand up for three years and two whole months! He was recently a finalist in Bath, England’s new act comedy competition despite being from Columbus, Ohio, where he usually performs. In his spare time Carter writes screenplays and serves as the managing editor of Denison University’s humorous publication, The Bullsheet. You can follow him on instagram @CarterSeipel
