It’s been a pretty wild year and a half for @NickSwardson, Minnesota comedy’s favorite diarrhea aficionado. racketmn.com/nick-swardson-…

Our pal @realnickswardson has been lately. Between a touring, movies and a new special, the only thing he hasn’t had time for is booze. We chat about his sobriety, new projects, and why he doesn’t like it when you say his comedy is stupid. racketmn.com/nick-swardson-…

Sofia Bisbocci will make you laugh, groan, and pay for your financial crimes. We talked about her dark sense of humor and watching Last Comic Standing at way too young of an age. Catch her this week in Eagan telling jokes and slinging pho for charity! mncomedy.com/news/f/sophia-…
