Patton Oswalt has had notable roles in films and television shows including Paul Thomas Anderson's Magnolia, Pixar's Ratatouille, and as Spence Olchin on The King of Queens. Other television appearances include Home Movies, Seinfeld, Human Giant, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, I Love the '80s, and Reno 911!. Patton has also released comedy albums Feelin' Kinda Patton and Werewolves and Lollipops.

Janeane Garofalo has been at the forefront of the comedy scene since her start in 1992. Since then, her accomplishments include an extensive list of film, television and published credits. In addition to her appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and The Daily Show, Garofalo has joined the cast of Saturday Night Live, The Ben Stiller Show and The West Wing. Her film credits include Reality Bites, The Truth About Cats and Dogs, Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion, Wonderland, and Ratatouille.

Tim and Eric are the comedic duo behind timanderic.com and Adult Swim's Tom Goes to the Mayor. They have since created another Adult Swim program, Tim and Eric Awesome Show: Great Job! and have released a CD with music from Awesome Show.

Jimmy Pardo has appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno as well as several appearances on The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson. Currently, Pardo hosts the podcast Never Not Funny with the producer Matt Belknap. He is also the host of Match Game Live, a live version of the Match Game television game show, at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in Los Angeles.

Bill Burr performs over three hundred shows annually. In 2004, he began working on Comedy Central's Chappelle's Show. In September 2005, Burr's HBO One Night Stand special aired. Along with many other projects, he has also been a guest comedian on The Bob and Tom Show as well as The Opie and Anthony Show on XM Satellite Radio.

Al Madrigal has appeared on The Late Late Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and Premium Blend, and was the Jury Award winner for Best Stand-Up Comedian at the 2004 HBO Aspen Comedy Festival.  His ability to mix improv into his stand-up sets landed him the lead role on the series The Ortegas and Welcome to the Captain. He is the founder of 826 Valencia's Comedy Night.

Bob Moore and his Amazing Mongrels have been performing for over 30 years. He's been on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour and America's Got Talent. He's even opened up for the Beastie Boys. All of Bob's dogs are rescues from a shelter and trained to jump through hoops, jump rope, act, and even do math.
