Brent Terhune Headliner
Characters, voices, one liners, and time-tested monologues-comedian Brent Terhune is the embodiment of all these things and more. Not many comics can pull off Brent’s laid-back style of comedy and still remain just as absurd and funny, but equally relevant and relatable at the same time. Currently, Brent is a writer for the nationally syndicated Bob & Tom Radio Show (he’s been on the show, too) and he’s the creator, writer, and illustrator of the Uncle Frank comic strip. His social media views are over 10 million!

Opening Act -Tyler Walsh
Tyler has emerged as a comedic force ready for more. More beef sticks, more pickled eats, more stages with the likes of Noel Miller in theaters across the country. More county fairs and private events for cattlemen or insurance brokers.
He has a way of making his singular rural midwestern upbringing universal to eclectic crowds. Whether it’s a top tier comedy club, the Todd and Tyler Radio Empire or his substantial TikTok following, Tyler gains fans at an exponential rate.
Headliner Chad Thornsberry
Chad has an instant likeability the second he steps behind a microphone. Chad’s slow paced, conversational style is the perfect backdrop for his hilarious observations.
Drawing on experiences ranging from growing up in a trailer park, being a former public school teacher, marriage, kids, and all of life’s everyday problems, Chad’s own unique view of life has him quickly becoming one of the most sought after clean comedians today.
A contrast to the high energy, in your face comedians that are prevalent today, Chad’s slow paced, conversational style immediately puts audiences at ease.
Often referred to as a “great writer” or a “classic monologist” (which is a word Chad had to look up after reading this bio), Chad allows audiences to take a humorous journey through well written stories always ending in laugh-out-loud punchlines.
