Small town golden boy? Check. Single dad extraordinaire? Check. Hot baker forearms? I didn’t notice them, I swear. I, on the other hand, don’t–at all–have anything figured out. Trust me, I didn’t think taking over my mom’s dream bed and breakfast in Copper Run Vermont was going to be easy. It should be a good place to heal after my divorce. But apparently my scones belong in the garbage with my small talk skills. As pointed out by none other than Cliff. Cliff is inescapable. He knows exactly what people need–always. His charm, the way he wears flannel, and even his pastries, make not wanting to be friends with Cliff and his daughters pretty hard. Friends? I can make friends. That’s safe. Except I’m leaving in three months to pass the inn off to my little sister and get the promotion in Seattle I’ve been working towards. So ask me why I’m thinking about kissing my hot neighbor.

Funny Bone Comedy Club & Restaurant

Cliff Cash got his comedy start in Wilmington, NC at Nutt St. Comedy, now Dead Crow Comedy Room. In the years since he’s gone on to win Port City’s Top Comic, Comedy Zone’s Almost Famous, and Best of the Fest at SLO Comedy Festival, and he’s been a finalist in Comedy Central’s UpNext and Standup NBC. He’s played iconic rooms from The Comedy Store in LA to the Comedy Cellar in New York City. He’s also headlined festivals like Altercation Comedy Festival in Austin and Tree Fort Festival in Boise. Cliff has been featured on Sirius XM Comedy Central, Rawdog, Laughs TV, Rooftop Comedy, and has a half-hour special from Dry Bar. His 2021 debut album Halfway There (released through StandUp! Records ) spent a week at number one on iTunes. In between touring, Cash is on a mission to see all the national parks in the United States. So far he’s seen 45 out of 62 while traveling in a sprinter van he converted to live in. Being a full time nomad makes being a full time comedian a little more “do-able.” SNL’s Kevin Nealon called him “a mix between Rory Scovel and Bill Hicks,” promised to help him get on Conan, and then never talked to him again. Cash’s comedy has been called “the comedic voice of the new south” as he challenges old paradigms and stereotypes from his deeply religious and conservative roots. Cliff tackles everything from racism to homophobia, from greed and war to death and divorce saying, “I believe it is our duty as comics to shine the light of levity into the dark corners of the human experience, and by doing so we can take power away from the things that sadden or scare us. Maybe that old saying about laughter being the best medicine really is true. I hope so because I don’t have health insurance.”
