Since then, he has been selected to perform at many comedy festivals and has been featured on HBO's Funny as Hell series; as well as on the Comedy Central shows Adam DeVine's House Party, Corporate, @midnight, and This Is Not Happening. Ben has released three stand-up comedy albums and was listed as one of Variety's Top 10 Comics to Watch.
Ben will be recording his sixth album at the world-famous Comedy Works Downtown on January 18.
Along with fellow Denver Comedians Adam Cayton-Holland and Andrew Orvedahl (who collectively perform as The Grawlix), Ben wrote and starred in TruTV's original comedy series Those Who Can't.
In addition to stand-up comedy, Roy is a prolific musician, currently the lead singer of SPELLS. He is also currently the host of two podcasts, 97.9 The Rat Race and Advice Fight.
