His high energy, spot on punch lines, and fast delivery assault an audience like a comedic freight train. Joey’s topical and timeless material combine to always make his audiences laugh hard.

Kola’s also proud of the success he’s had in raising great amounts of money for the many different charities he currently supports.

Joey has been voted Best TV Warm-up Comic 5 years in a row by Time Out NY magazine. He has warmed up many shows, such as “The Rosie O’Donnell Show”, “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire” with Meredith Viera, “The Late Show With David Letterman”, “The Apprentice” and “Survivor” Finales, “The Jane Pauley Show” and CBS’s “Wake-Up with Ali and Jack”. He currently can be seen everyday on the “Martha Stewart Show” as her ‘warm-up artiste’ and ‘lovable side kick’.

One of the hardest working comics in show business today, over 300 shows per year for the last 30 years, Joey also finds time to write for other comics. George Carlin called Joey “One of the strongest comics I’ve seen”. Joey has also toured many casinos with the cast of the Sopranos as part of their live show “Comedy You Can’t Refuse”.

Kola continues to make audiences laugh today. Joey’s family, his wife and 2 kids, are a great source for most of his material. Joey Kola can play to any crowd, young or old, his material is versatile. He can be ‘clean’ or ‘dirty’. Joey loves to promote his shows. His radio spots on various stations around the country have been enjoyed by millions.

Written about in many news articles, magazines, and on the internet, Joey continues to please a wide range of people. No matter who the audience is, Joey’s likeability comes across as his strongest asset. He always leaves everyone drunken with laughter.

Feature: Rich Carucci

Major NYC Clubs

Rich Carucci is a fan of comedy. He is a second generation comedian who’s grandfather was a vaudvillian song/dance & comedy act. Rich was a childhood actor who appeared on several Chef Boyardee commercials, off broadway plays and The 1972 Ed Sullivan Easter Special,’Clowning Around” with singer Tiny Tim, actress Lucie Arneaz and comedian Chuck McCann.

Rich got into comedy writting while resideing in Denver Colorado in the early 1990’s and was published in several local papers & magazines. He began his standup comedy career in early 2001 and quickly became known as “The Steamroller of Comedy” for one good reason, he flattens everything and everyone in his path. Audiences near and wide are left gasping for air at Rich’s in-your-face and at the same time personable style. No one and no subject is safe from “The Steamroller”. Rich delivers blue collar everyman style entertainment that people can relate to and his no-nonsence sometimes politically incorrect (but never mean) humor endears him to audiences of all kind.

Whether it be his witty material on current events or his hysterical crowd work, he’s fierce, friendly and funny all at the same time. Do yourself a favor and go checkout “The Steamroller of Comedy!”
