Always the class clown (and spending most of his formative years in the principal's office), Rob Brackenridge was destined to become a comedian. Born and raised in Wisconsin, Rob has been based out of Los Angeles since 1992 and spends most of the year on the road, "bringing the funny" to audiences around the world. He tours regularly for the U.S. troops on the Miller Lite "Lite Laffs" program, and his television credits include Comedy Central's "Make Me Laugh" and "Stand-Up, Stand-Up". He is a favorite at the Improv, the Comedy Store, and Catch a Rising Star.
Next up, we welcome Sam Bam to the show! Hailing from Stockton, California, Sam Bam experienced the usual ups and downs as a teenager trying to make it out of the hood. “I was always a good story teller, one day I just decided to give it a shot and tried stand-up.” His decision to take on comedy was the right one. Starting off in a little room in San Francisco to being seen nationally on television on BET’s Comic View, Sam has made strides in the right direction and continues to never lose sight on the reason why he does comedy. Not only does Sam perform as a comedian, he is also an accomplished event producer. He has produced shows that have brought thousands together and also has gained local media attention. He continues to produce shows including producing and headlining "Sam Bam's Comedy Jam" (Sacramento Punchline and Cobbs) and the “It wasn’t funny then, but it’s funny now” tour.
Next up, San Francisco and LA favorite, Stroy Moyd is back to join us! Stroy hosted the 15-city tour known as “The One Night Stand Tour,” headlined by Bay Area music groups The Pack and The Cataracs, hosted UPN’s “Speak on it,” a local television show for teenagers to make them aware of drugs, violence, sex, etc.. and he’s won a handful of local comedy competitions. Originality means a lot in the entertainment industry. So to stand out from the rest of his fellow comedians, Stroy began making beats and performing hilarious rap songs on stage. “At first I was really nervous to perform funny rap songs because no one has ever done it before, and I didn’t know how the crowd would react.” After he performed his first single “Asian Bitch," the rest was history. Stroy recently relocated to Los Angeles to build a buzz and push his debut comedy album that he wrote, recorded, made the beats, and produced on his own entitled “That’s right, I said it!” available on Itunes.
We also are happy to welcome Daniel Carillo to the show. Daniel is quickly becoming a regular at the San Jose Improv, showcasing his talents in hugely popular showcases such as "Big Al's Big Ass Comedy Show" as well as the "Big, Bad, and Sexy Comedy Tour". Daniel performs all over the South Bay area.

He is also a contributing author on, "I Killed: True Stories of the Road by America's Top Comics" which the N.Y. Times called, "Hilarious" and he's had numerous articles published in newspapers and magazines around the world including iReport.
Next up on the JMP, we welcome back one of our favorite wacky, wild gals...Coree Spencer! Coree Spencer has been doing comedy for 10 years in the form of filmed sketch comedy winning numerous awards for writing and filmmaking. Her sketch “Top Friend” is the 13th most watched video on Myspace of all time. Her sketches have also been featured on the Upright Citizen’s Brigade Comedy website and Funny Or Die MySpace and YouTube. Coree also started and produced one of Portland’s longest running sketch comedy groups, Homeless Corner from 2003-2009 and from there, formed other award winning groups such as Awful Waffle, Ladies Night, and Kobra Kommander, which won Best Film, Best Editor, Best Musical Score and Audience Favorite for the Portland 48 Hour Film Project in 2009.
Coree is a writer, producer, video editor, director, actress, makeup artist and anything else that comes her way. Coree has performed at the John Lovitz Comedy Club at their Up and Comers show in Hollywood, The Las Vegas Comedy Show with Joe Lowers, the Purple Onion in San Francisco, and The Bridgetown Comedy Festival in Portland, Oregon. Coree is a radio personality and contributing interviewer for poprockcandymountain.com’s “Comedian on Comedian,” which is a series of nonsensical video interviews with Sarah Silverman, David Cross, Michael Ian Black, Wyatt Cenac, Hard n’ Phirm, Todd Barry and more. Coree also enjoys Velcro.
And finally, the wacky and wonderful Barry Piotrkowski is joining us! Barry considers himself a drug that you wanna try, can't get, and 'aint never gonna find...and if you need to know anything else, just know he RUNS SHIT! And he has a BONER!! Barry produces and hosts the famous Bacon Room at the Lariat in Belmont, California. Every Wednesday, his rambunctious Hump Day Comedy Showcase is a wild place to go party, eat bacon, and enjoy mystery shots. I am proud to call this my "home room" to go hang out and work out my new jokes. Barry also produces and hosts a new comedy showcase at St. James Gate in Belmont. By the way, when Barry arrives on our radio show, there is no way I will correctly pronounce his last name. Know that in advance.
