Bobby Lee

Oddball Fest West Palm beach

Bobby Lee is an actor, comedian, ping pong aficionado, and glue-thumb artist. Shape-wise he is a genetic cross between a scallop and a panda, making him one of the softest and cutest hybrids in existence- a complete juxtaposition to his irreverent brand of comedy where unforgivable things are said but no apologies are made. He is Toki Fong, Connie Chung, Kim Jong, and sometimes just a strange little man who likes to dance around in panties drinking milkshakes.

Brian Regan

Oddball Comedy Fest West Palm Beach

Brian Regan is an American stand-up comedian who uses observational, sarcastic, and self-deprecating humor. His performances are relatively clean as he refrains from profanity and off-color humor. Regan’s material typically covers everyday events, such as shipping a package with UPS and a visit to an optometrist. Regan makes frequent references to childhood, including little league baseball, grade school spelling bees, and science projects. Body language and facial expressions make his stand-up act atypically physical. His clean, off-center humor has been praised by critics and contemporaries alike and Regan enjoys a fan base that crosses age groups.
