The headliner, Graham Elwood, is an international touring comedian that has done 7 USO tours in Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan. He is also the co-creator and co-host of the Comedy Film Nerds podcast, which averages 15- 20 thousand downloads on iTunes every week. Graham has worked on Comedy Central with Sarah Silverman and Doug Benson and has created a documentary called "Laffghanistan: Comedy Down Range" which documents his emotional journey through Afghanistan war zones to entertain embattled U.S. Troops.

Some of the featured comedians in this show are either active military or retired. Patrick Tyrrell is in the Marines and works with rehabbing actual wounded warriors at the Kaneohe MCBH, Marckende Pierre is currently in the Marines, David K Jones is in the Air Force, and Powell C retired from the Air Force.

MarsComedy.com and the Guys With Issues started in January 2012 and always had the goal of developing and promoting the Stand-Up Comedy scene in Hawaii through social media, podcasting, and live comedy shows.
