Larry Reeb
9:30pm

Known as Uncle Lar, Larry Reeb is the wise-cracking, politically incorrect relative everyone knows. Like any concerned relative, Uncle Lar wants to help. He gives you humorous tips on everything from marriage and children to the lottery, always ending with, “That’s a tip from your Uncle Lar.”

Popular for his sharp wit, classic character and rapid one-liners, Reeb has been voted the Chicago Comedian of the Year. He’s also a regular on radio’s The Bob and Tom Show and has made numerous television appearances on A&E, VH-1 and Showtime, among others.


 


Paul Strickland
9:00pm

Though Paul Strickland is mostly unimpressed with the world around him, his annoyance never translates into staged angst. In fact, he’s obviously most happy when transforming his frustrations into laughter. Strickland is the guy on the elevator who is openly furious at the man who rode down only one floor, incensed by silly catchphrases or advertisements and red-in-the-face over what his waitress said. He is the smirking, lovable grumbler in everyone’s life. Though he’s not a physical comic, Strickland has grown into a likable, engaging performer who is certain to be remembered and guaranteed to entertain.
