Krackpots of Comedy

HEADLINER, Lou Santini 

You remember him from his radio days on “Rock 107, WRQK” and “‘The Buzzard’, 100.7, WMMS.” After doing all things entertainment in Los Angeles for 24 years, Lou Santini has come home!

If you’re allergic to a lack of common sense and you like your comedy with some bite, you want Lou Santini. Much like his book, “Amateur Nation: The Decline of Common Sense, Manners and Social Skills” (found on Amazon), and his podcast, “Amateur Nation”, Lou comes at you fast with a smart, uncompromising, and engaging
wit: calling out those around us who are "doing life wrong", and are “Disturbing the flow of the Pros"! Lou Santini won the Detroit and San Diego Comedy Festivals,
and was tapped as “Best of the Fest” at the 2015, 2016 Burbank Comedy Festival. He has opened for Bob Saget and Paul Reiser and has worked with some of the biggest names in comedy like Nick DiPaulo, the late Robert Schimmel, and Wendy Liebman. His comedy, hosting, standup, and acting has been seen on "Reelz Channel”, “Pop TV”, and “Frank TV”. You can hear his voices on such video games such as, “Evolve” and “Mafia 3” and TV and radio and TV commercials nationwide.

Lou is also the stadium announcer and halftime show host for the 4x Champions, Cleveland Crunch Pro Indoor Soccer Team. He was one of the writers and co-hosts of the hugely popular web series, “1TrackMind” and is the co-writer and co-executive producer of the movie, “30 Swipes Right” and the pop culture debate game show, “WhaddayaSay?”. His comedy album, "Let's Get Bloated" is on iTunes and Amazon. See more of Lou Santini at lousantini.com
