Not only did NBC take notice, promptly signing Lavell to a holding deal with the network, but also Comedy Central, offering him his own half-hour standup special, *Comedy Central Presents: Lavell Crawford*. He appeared on the crime drama series *Breaking Bad* and has reprised his role on *Better Call Saul* as Saul Goodman’s bodyguard Huell Babineaux. Comedian Earthquake, known by his fans as “Quake,” is beloved in the stand-up comedy arena. Known for years as “The Comedian's Favorite Comedian,” his numerous television appearances on HBO, Comedy Central, BET, Showtime and the late-night talk show circuit have won him a loyal fan base. Chosen by Whoopi Goldberg for a stand-up comedy segment of *The View*, Earthquake has secured a place in the heart of comedy lovers across race, culture or social status. Earthquake hosts *Quake’s House* weekdays from 4-6 p.m. ET on Kevin Hart's Laugh Out Loud Radio, SiriusXM channel 96. Thomas “Nephew Tommy” Miles has built a career that encompasses radio, television, film and more. Thomas’ role as co-host of the nationally syndicated Steve Harvey Morning Show puts him in front of a live radio audience of more than eight million listeners daily. Nephew Tommy provides a key role in the morning show, lighting it up with his own cast of colorful characters and zany humor. In October 2010, Thomas recorded his one-hour special at the famed Motor City Casino in Detroit. Detroit native John “Pops” Witherspoon’s work spans over four decades and includes blockbuster movies, hit-television shows, commercials and top-rated music videos. He appeared as Ice Cube’s outrageously funny, dog-catching dad in New Line Cinema’s smash urban trilogy *Friday*, *Next Friday* and *Friday After Next*, as “Pops” on the long-running syndicated sitcom *The Wayans Brothers* and Lloyd on Adult Swim’s *Black Jesus*. His scene-stealing roles in *Boomerang*, *Little Nicky*, *House Party*, *Vampire in Brooklyn* and *I’m Gonna Git You Sucka* have made him one of the most memorable funny men in America. Best known as the winner of *Last Comic Standing* Season 8, comedian Rod Man is truly a gem in the world of standup comedy today. His unique delivery and voice capture the attention of audiences. Throw in his laid-back style, southern charm, wit, and ability to find the funny in everyday life, and you have the ingredients for a future comedy star in the making. Rod Man has made many television appearances, including *The Bad Boys of Comedy* for HBO, Martin Lawrence’s *First Amendment* for Starz, Nick Cannon’s *Wild ‘N Out* for MTV, *One Mic Stand* for BET, *The Funny Spot* for TV One and *The World Stands Up* for BBC America. He even co-hosted a morning drive-time show in Los Angeles on Stevie Wonder-owned KJLH Radio 102.3 FM. From headlining comedy clubs, to showing-out on television, Dominique is the new face of funny in America. She’s created laughs on stages across the world, including NBC’s *Last Comic Standing*, HBO’s *Def Comedy Jam*, Comedy Central’s *The Chapelle Show*, O.W.N’S *Herlarious* and *Black Jesus* on Adult Swim. In addition to stand-up and television, the Washington D.C. native has drawn laughs from radio audiences across America from appearances on the *Tom Joyner Morning Show*. From this platform, Dominique became known as the “people’s champ,” a comedian who speaks for the common man and woman of America.
