When you’re a comic and you get a new headshot you like, you put it up everywhere in the hopes that the next poster with your face on it isn’t some old grainy Facebook photo you were tagged in in 2013 (it still will be). Huge thanks to Libby Oclair for the new headshots!
Had a great conversation with comedian Greg Sharp on his podcast “I’m Glad You’re Here!”
Check it out above or find it anywhere you get your podcasts.

Lineup
Drew Harmon
Drew is a featured comic at Live Nation comedy clubs and has worked with Dan Soder, Nicole Byer, Emo Phillips, Steve Byrne, Dan Soder and more, and has performed in comedy festivals all over America. Drew was based in San Francisco for almost 14 years and has since relocated to the Detroit area.
Robyn Gilleran
Robyn Gilleran is a comedian based in Detroit and is the better (looking) half of Hard G Comedy with her husband Jason. This former fat kid and current actor/model is the mother of teenage boys and has a lot to say about growing up, motherhood and life in general. She has performed on stages across the US including Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle, One Night Stan’s Comedy Club, The Detroit House of Comedy, Traverse City Comedy Club and Funny Farm, as well as Gildas Laughfest, The Travese City Comedy Fest and the Detroit Women in Comedy Festival. She’s sure to catch you off guard and teach you to never judge a book by her cover.
Jason Gilleran
Jason Gilleran debuted on Detroit’s thriving comedy scene in 2017. Along with his stand up comedienne wife Robyn, they are Hard G Comedy, and run The NEW Bob Sadowski Comedy Show at New Dodge Lounge in Hamtramck, as well as “Thumbthing Funny” in Caseville and “Laughing All the Way to the Bank” in Port Austin. He is a regular at Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle and One Night Stan’s and has featured for John Heffron at the Traverse City Comedy Club and performed in the 2023 Traverse City Comedy Fest. His 20 years of experience as a Urologist (aka “the Dick Doc”) means he’s seen a few things. Things he can’t unsee. Jason brings a fast pace, almost absurdist view of the things he finds funny, like bad food, good music, and an ongoing mid life crisis as a Gen X husband and father. And yes, there are dick jokes.
Brian Atkinson
Brian Atkinson is a comedian, an all-around nice guy, and a horrible person. His good-guy persona gives way to surprising twists to keep you laughing. While his voice might be the first thing you notice, his confidence, and engaging storytelling will keep you coming back. Brian is a 2023 World Series of Comedy Wildcard 1st Place Winner and has provided voices for PBS Kids while also appearing in a Lifetime Movie Network movie, as a serial killer, in the same studio, on the same day. Brian Atkinson makes jokes, but only the finest artisan, hand-crafted, farm-to-table-saw jokes.
Ned Rice
Detroit native Ned Rice was an Emmy-nominated Hollywood joker writer for Jay Leno, Bill Maher, Joan Rivers, and other comedy legends. Now he’s back home in Michigan pursuing a career in stand-up comedy.
