Also featuring

Shawn Carter is a standup comedian, and writer. He is a new dad, and old husband. He's had one kid, and two marriages. Currently residing in Bristol Tennessee with his beautiful family, this Boston dude has been getting acclimated to southern hospitality. Shawn's stories focus on the absurdity of family life and his experience as a yankee in the south.

Bryan Morton is a stand-up comedian from Bristol, Tennessee. In 2017, he was named Funniest of the Tri-Cities. He is a staple at Blue Ridge Comedy Club, in Bristol, Tennessee. Bryan has performed on shows with nationally recognized comedians to include Tim Dillon, Joe Zimmerman, Michael Palascak and Chris Kattan. He was a featured performer at the 2022 North Carolina Comedy Festival and was invited to return to the 2023 festival in September. Bryan has been dabbling in comedy for 10 years, but for the last 4 years he has hit the road, touring all over the East Coast and has quickly gained a reputation as a must-see comedian on the rise.

“When I think of Bryan on stage, I think of an affable southern charm that will make your daughters and your mothers laugh at the exact same joke. Bryan is the rare breed who can hit every age and demo in the same moment, with a punchline that can bring an entire room together in that special way that only stand up comedy and Avatar 2 and Dolly Parton can pull off.” - Joe Zimmerman (The Late Late Show, Comedy Central)
