Cory Edwards

Cory has logged over twenty years as a stand-up comic, performing all over the country, for audiences of all ages. He has been seen at famous Los Angeles clubs such as The Comedy Store, The Improv and The Ice House. He competed in NBC's Last Comic Standing and went to the semi-finals of Ed McMahon's Next Big Star.

In addition to stand-up, Cory has been involved in every form of live comedy: he directed and wrote for a comic variety show, founded a sketch comedy troupe, and performed with an improvisational group for two years. Cory’s material is that rare breed that works on audiences from eight to eighty, and he prides himself on a track record of complete crowd satisfaction. “Making a room full of people laugh is one of the best jobs in the world. Smiling isn’t good enough. If you’re slapping the table and repeating the lines on the way home, then I’ve hit my target.”

Cory also speaks to audiences about his films, books and experiences in the entertainment industry. His messages are designed to inspire and motivate with lots of laughs along the way.

As an on-air personality, Cory has hosted extensively on TV and radio. Highlights include hosting two seasons of K9 Nation for ESPN, five seasons of the music video show CCM-TV for The Inspirational Network, and hosting the syndicated talk radio show Reasons To Believe with Dr. Hugh Ross. He has hosted numerous live television specials for New Year's Eve, fundraising events and even a two-hour televised concert from Disneyworld. He currently hosts his own weekly podcast, Thanks For Stopping By, and his new half hour Dry Bar Comedy special will be released this December.

If there's a mic and a stage, Cory will never tire of getting up there to make you laugh!
