Featuring

Brian Maggi, Your Host

Brian is the creator, and host of Adulted, and a Bay Area comedian and writer. He left the high stress world of tech for the low wage life of standup comedy performing under the stage name Skip Everett. His biggest claim to fame is inventing the Spam filter so he’d have an excuse for not reading his parents’ emails.

He performs regularly around San Francisco including Cobbs, The Punchline, and Rooster T. Feathers. He has written for Chicago’s Second City, and co-created the underground humor magazine “In Formation.” He is a published author, and keynote speaker on innovation and creativity.

Alyssa Westerlund

Alyssa Westerlund’s sweet, innocent looks belie her wicked sense of humor and spot on delivery. She inspires women and melts men, like toy soldiers in the microwave. Alyssa’s comedy will rip your guts out, tear your heart to pieces, grab you by the genitalia and not let go until you’re in stitches.

Paul Conyers

Paul Conyers’ sharp writing and confident performing style have made him a crowd favorite in the Bay Area comedy scene and beyond. He recently signed a contract with Uproar Entertainment and will be recording his first comedy album soon.

Paul has performed in clubs all over the country and was selected to participate in SF Sketchfest 2019. He recently took 1st place in the 2019 World Series of Comedy Sacramento satellite and will advance to the Main Event in September for the third consecutive year. Paul is absurdly tall and may become confrontational if you claim to know more about Harry Potter than he does.

Samson Koletkar, Headliner

Samson Koletkar was born in Mumbai and raised Jewish. Growing up in the world’s most crowded city, he spent most of his childhood years burning the midnight candles for earning a Masters Degree in Computer Software, thereby fulfilling his parent’s dreams. He then moved half-way across the world, to the technology headquarters and a hotbed for emerging comics – San Francisco.
