This month’s guests:



Chris Garcia is one of the hottest young stand-up comics working today. His absurdist take on street and pop culture coupled with his upbringing as a first generation Cuban American have singled him out, with winning performances at the San Francisco Comedy Club Competition, the Stand Up Comedy Olympics, and the Onion's Aristocrat Awards.



Reid Faylor won the 2008 Funniest Person in Cincinnati Contest AND the 2009 National College Funny Film Competition, and he was runner up in the 2008 National College Stand-up Competition. He is an independent cartoonist, comedy writer, and stand up comedian. His stand up has a vaguely abstract style full of illogical stories, non sequiturs and music-accompanied absurdities, in the same vein as Mitch Hedberg, Zach Galifianakis and Jack Handey.



Michael Sanchez is a co-founder of the groundbreaking “Comedians You Should Know Show.” In addition to writing and directing a number of award-winning comedic shorts, he is currently in post-production on his first feature film, “The Return of Great Guy.”
