FRIDAY, AUGUST 15

GEOFFREY ASMUS

Geoffrey Asmus began performing stand-up in 2013 immediately after wasting $143,548 on seven college degrees.

Geoffrey regularly performs at the famous Comedy Cellar in New York City and was featured at Just For Laughs in Montreal and the Netflix festival in Los Angeles.

Geoffrey has opened for Dave Attell, Mark Normand, Dan Soder, Fortune Feimster, Sam Morrill, and Daniel Sloss among others. He headlines comedy clubs worldwide and sleeps on Greyhounds nationwide.

In 2021 his debut album “Prodigal Little Bitch” went to #1 on iTunes. His new YouTube special “The Only Funny White Man” is out now and his mother says, “It is hellish to behold.”

But no matter where he performs Geoffrey never makes eye contact, which is a blessing for all.
