My guest today is a stand-up comedian who has been a semi-finalist in Sirius XM’s NEXT TOP COMIC competition on THREE separate occasions! 

In 2011 he became the co-host of the SHAW TV late night talk show, Week Thus Far which ran for 8 seasons. 

The very next year he was the winner of Winnipeg’s Funniest Person with a day job, a highly coveted title in the province. A couple years after that he became one of the hand picked few who were asked to regularly host at Rumors Restaurant and Comedy Club.

After that, he started performing stand-up comedy all over Canada and several countries overseas in both English and French. Including, The Comedy Nest in Montreal and the Absolute Comedy Club chain in Toronto, Ottawa and Kingston.

He’s been featured on CBC’s Laugh Out Loud and Sirius XM Satellite Radio.

He created and hosted several comedy rooms that helped showcase talent and foster the careers of countless comedians.

He’s showcased for Just For Laughs, and performed at the Winnipeg Comedy Festival and the Oddblock Comedy Festival.

Comedian and comedy producer, Mike Green had this to say about him, “Ball coach has a style where if he’s in full flow and the crowd buys in to the character, he is literally unbeatable. There’s just so many layers and tags on every joke.”

It's…BEN WALKER!
