One of America's funniest and most-loved comedians, Sinbad has been doing comedy for over 30 years. His stage presence is very physical with plenty of movement and interaction while his delivery and phrasing is as good as it comes.

Ranked by Comedy Central as one of the "100 Greatest Stand-ups of All Time," Sinbad has built a loyal following. Throughout his incredibly successful career as a stand-up comedian, Sinbad has starred in two Comedy Central specials and four HBO comedy specials. Sinbad recently released a TV movie, Sinbad: Make Me Wanna Holla, which he served as the executive producer. He is internationally known for his starring appearances in hit movies including Jingle All the Way, Good Burger, Houseguest, Necessary Roughness, First Kid and Coneheads. Sinbad has also made television appearances on shows such as It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Are We There Yet, Celebrity Apprentice, Comics Unleashed and more recently Food Network's Chopped Tournament of Stars: Comedians.

Sinbad has appeared on all the biggest talk shows as a guest and a performer. He has a way of taking audiences' painful trials or embarrassing tribulations of every day life and throwing them back in their faces, causing an uproar or comedic hysteria.

Hari Kondabolu is a Brooklyn-based, Queens-raised comic who the NY Times has called "one of the most exciting political comics in stand-up today." Recently, Hari released his debut stand-up album, Waiting for 2042, on indie-label Kill Rock Stars.

Hari has done stand-up on the Late Show with David Letterman, Conan, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Live at Gotham and John Oliver's New York Standup Show, as well as his own Comedy Central Presents half-hour television special. He was also a writer and correspondent for the Chris Rock-produced Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell on FX.

A regular on the public radio circuit, Hari has appeared on NPR's Fresh Air with Terry Gross, as well as Morning Edition, All Things Considered, Studio 360, Bullseye and Soundcheck. He has also appeared on popular podcasts like WTF with Marc Maron, You Made it Weird with Pete Holmes and Too Beautiful to Live with Luke Burbank.

In the UK, Hari has established himself with appearances on BBC 3's Russell Howard's Good News, Live at the Electric and Channel 4's 8 out 10 Cats. When in New York City, he co-hosts the mostly improvised talk show The Untitled Kondabolu Brothers Project with his younger brother Ashok ("Dap" from hip hop group Das Racist) and their podcast The Untitled Kondabolu Brothers Podcast. He was also a former video blogger for WORLD COMPASS, a joint initiative between WGBH Boston, PBS and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
