Host & Producer:Natalie Fowzie
Natasha Muse is like the C-3P0 of San Francisco Comedy. A bunch of small bears once mistook her for a golden god but in reality, she’s a bumbling robot (as well as a mom, a transsexual, and a firm agnostic). The SF Weekly declared her a “Comedian to Watch” in 2014, and in 2016 they upgraded her to an “Artist to Watch”. Most recently in February 2019, Natasha was named by SFist as one of 13 San Francisco Comedians to "Go See Now". Natasha features at the SF Punchline and Cobb’s Comedy Club and has worked with such comedy luminaries as Maria Bamford, Anthony Jeselnik, Janeane Garofalo, Wyatt Cenac, and God. Natasha’s comedy is so good, it’s not even funny.
Rudy Ortiz is from San Leandro, California and has always enjoyed being judged by a room full of strangers. Rudy produces a monthly stand-up comedy showcase called, “Rare Form Comedy” that has been running since 2014 in various locations throughout Northern California. San Francisco Bay Area Sports fans know Rudy as a sports radio personality and co-host of "The 3 Amigos", which aired on 95.7 FM The Game from 2014 - 2016 and of "The Audible", which aired on KNBR from 2016 - 2017. Rudy is a movie critic for "Sarah & Vinnie" on Alice 97.3 FM in San Francisco. He performs at clubs all over the country, from Hollywood Improv to the Philly Punchline. Rudy is currently touring with Frankie Quiñones, the creator of "Cholofit (Creeper)".
Born with a foreign name in an American country (America), Dauood Muhammad Naimyar ("David") learned the value of assimilating at a very young age. He tried his best to not be different but failed at every encounter. Once he embraced his eccentric point of view, he saw the humor all around him. David’s comedic perspective is shaped by the duality of his constant need to fit in, and his relentless desire to be different. His desire to be relatable, yet controversial has brought audiences joy for six years--and will probably continue to until he finally figures out who he is. We hope he doesn’t, 'cause bills need to be paid.
Referred to as an "Advocate for Destruction", Brian Crowhas influences ranging from George Carlin and Bill Hicks to Robin Williams, Billy Crystal and David Lee Roth. Brian has joked at length his experiences and observations on life, love, fatherhood and Rock n Roll. Audiences from San Francisco to Los Angeles, from Texas to Atlanta and points in between have raved at his performances calling it a verbal combination of jazz & violence. Closer to home, Brian can be seen regularly all around the Bay Area including Cobb's Comedy Club, Rooster T Feathers and in Los Angeles at Flappers Comedy Club, The Comedy Store and the occasional police lineup. Brian has also come to the realization that writing about himself in the 3rd person feels weird.
Annette Mullaney is a stand-up comedian based in the San Francisco Bay Area. She says she’s funny and so does The SF Chronicle who described her as one of Six Bay Area Comics to Catch on stage. Annette bestowed her evergreen wisdom about divorcées on a podcast called “Ask a Divorcée”, which ran from 2016 - 2018 and can still be found SoundCloud.
Marcus Howard is a comedian hailing from Oakland, CA. His comedy touches on navigating life as a black millennial while poking fun at the ridiculous side of wokeness. Marcus' comedy has brought him to legendary venues such as Cobb's Comedy Club and Tommy Ts. Currently, Marcus can be seen regularly at The SetUp in San Francisco’s totally safe Tenderloin.
Natalie Fowzie is a stand-up comedian, voice-over artist, and San Francisco Bay Area native who has performed at clubs throughout the Bay Area, including The Purple Onion, Tommy Ts, Cobb's Comedy Club, and San Jose Improv. Born in the U.S. to immigrant parents from Egypt and raised in Catholic schools, Natalie brings a hysterically truthful and slightly twisted perspective to the stage. Natalie has earned over 20 U.S. patents and somehow missed the marriage and motherhood boat. Her best skill is saying what most people are thinking but don’t want to admit out loud. Natalie produces the Laff Caraff Show, which showcases talented comedians at venues throughout the Bay Area.
