Lebanese-Palestinian-Syrian-Italian-American born in Oakland California, Sammy Obeid graduated from UC Berkeley with a 3.9 GPA double major in Business and Applied Mathematics and then realized he was actually meant to do comedy. Uhoh. Recently appearing on NBC's America's Got Talent, advancing to the Las Vegas round, Sammy's style has been described as 'intelligent', 'inspiring', and 'a youthful perspective that reaches all ages.' As the youngest member both of the national tours, CoExist Comedy and the Axis of Evil New Generation, Sammy has worked with Robin Williams, Russel Peters, Dana Carvey and more. He is also the founder of his own comedy enterprise, KO Comedy, as well as the first comedian to ever appear on the Food Network telling jokes.

Sammy is currently performing standup comedy every day for 1,000 days in a row, with no days off. 'The streak' started on December 26th, 2010 and will end on September 21st, 2013, making it 1,001 Arabian nights of comedy. He broke the world record of consecutive nights of performance on Day 731.

Mars Comedy started in January 2012 and has always had the goal of developing and promoting the Stand-Up Comedy scene in Hawaii through social media, podcasting, and live comedy shows. Please visit the website at MarsComedy.com.
