He has parlayed his success as a stand-up to firmly establish himself in the film and television arena, featuring in several episodes of the hit series “The King of Queens,” and a guest appearance on “Veep” on HBO.

SEAN MCBRIDE
Sean McBride provides a fresh, personable style and material that everyone can relate to. Born in the Mid West, but raised in Western New England, it’s no surprise that Sean McBride is now one of the fastest rising comics to come out of Southern California. After “retiring” from the NFL Network in 2009, Sean hit the road, performing at every comedy club, college, casino and dive bar planet earth had to offer. These days he performs regularly around Los Angeles and is the host of ‘Cosmic Comedy’ at Cosmic Vinyl in Echo Park. He is the host of the ‘Halftime Live’ Sports Trivia App and a featured performer on the Laugh Bureau comedy channel. Sean can also be seen in the film, “LIVE”, streaming now on Amazon Prime.
VICTOR PACHECO
Victor Pacheco is a large, yet highly energetic comedian born with the creative talent of romanticizing the complexity of teaching in today’s unforgiving society. The self-proclaimed “Hispanic Titanic” began his stand-up comedy experience in 1998 at the age of 12 when he won first place at his middle school talent show, which he repeated in 1999. Following these comedic milestones, Victor went into retirement and didn’t return until 2012 to take the stage full force. Victor’s quick wit, commanding one-liners and warm personality have made him a favorite at comedy clubs, colleges, and casinos. Additionally, Victor regularly performs for Veterans of Foreign Wars and continues to be invited back. He’s a regular at Tommy T’s Comedy Club and Laughs Unlimited Comedy Club and he’s opened for comedians Paul Rodriguez, John Witherspoon and Edwin San Juan.
DOUG FERRARI

Doug has numerous television and film credits including Showtime, MTV, Fox, Comedy Central, A Fine Romance ABC, and Comedy Express A+E.
DAUOOD NAIMYAR
Born with a foreign name in an American country (America), Dauood Muhammad Naimyar learned the value of assimilating at a very young age. Because of this, 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. Dauood placed third in the 2018 San Francisco International Comedy Festival. He was also a finalist in the San Jose Improv Comedy Competition (2017) and Rooster T Feathers Comedy Competition (2016). Other festivals he has appeared in include: SF Sketchfest, Limestone Comedy Festival and Desi Comedy Festival. Dauood’s comedic perspective is shaped by the duality of his constant need to fit in, and his relentless desire to be different. His search for being relatable yet controversial has brought audiences joy for six years–and will probably continue until he finally figures out who he is.
LARRY “BUBBLES” BROWN (Host)
Larry “Bubbles” Brown is a San Francisco based comedian and a favorite of the Throckmorton. Larry tried stand up comedy in 1981 at the Holy City Zoo in SF and has stayed with it ever since.
