Jason Moliterno
Since first stepping on stage in 2012, comedian Jason Moliterno has delighted audiences with his clever observations, which he packs with smart wit and a dash of absurdity. Once described by a former teacher as a “slow-talking sage,” this Youngstown, Ohio, native will either find a unique angle on an everyday subject or turn an unusual idea into something relatable.
Jason has performed in over thirty states, was a finalist in the World Series of Comedy in Las Vegas, and recently filmed a comedy special at the Funny Farm Comedy Club with Tim Wolfe, another Youngstown native and member of The Youngstown Comedy Syndicate, which is a collaboration of area comics who produce, promote and perform live comedy shows all over Ohio, PA, and beyond.
He won the 2017 Feature Contest in Akron, Ohio, and has performed at the Accidental Comedy Festival, Whiskey Bear Comedy Festival, and Cleveland Comedy Festival. His peers nominated him for multiple Cleveland Comedy Awards, including “Best Joke” and “Road Warrior.”
In 2011, he directed a short film that won first prize at the Akron Film Festival. Today he co-hosts The Jason & Noel Comedy Hour podcast with his wife.
Patrick Madison
Patrick Madison burst into the comedy scene in 2017, grinding his way from one bar basement to the
next, slowly but surely climbing the ranks to become a mainstay in the Middle America comedy circuit.
With his clever, quirky, and brutally honest style, he has become a fixture at Funny Farm, Funny Stop,
and Kill Box, where audiences connect with his embarrassingly relatable humor.
Taking his comedy nationwide, Patrick launched the Double Chuckle Comedy Tour, bringing his unique brand of humor to over 300 cities across the United States. His dedication to the craft and relentless touring schedule earned him a feature in a best-selling book about road comics, and multiple Cleveland Comedy Award nominations, solidifying his place among the hardest-working comedians in the industry.
Beyond the laughs, Patrick has used his platform for a greater purpose, raising over $4000 for children’s cancer research at Akron Children’s Hospital—proving that comedy can make a difference both on and off the stage.
With his fearless honesty, thoughtful observations, and undeniable charm, Patrick Madison
is one of comedy’s rising voices, turning life’s awkward moments into must-hear stories.
