BOB BATCH
Bob Batch didn't have to change one word in his successful nightclub act to perform for the corporate world. He is clean, clever and hilarious in any setting. Over 10,000 shows.
Bob Batch makes people laugh He can't help it. While working on his communications degree, at the University of Louisville, he had to read a newscast and be critiqued by his classmates. The entire class broke out laughing and the professor told him that he was a brilliant comedian. "I was trying to read straight news." He soon was telling jokes at colleges from Harvard & M.I.T. to U.C.L.A. As well as Casino's in Atlantic City, Tahoe & The Bahamas. Ray Charles, Blood Sweat & Tears, Chicago, Stanley Jordan, The Oak Ridge Boys, REO Speedwagon and Ann Murray are among the diverse musical acts that have chosen Bob to share the concert stage with them.
Although Bob is a southern corn c his style was developed in the fast paced clubs of Boston. He says crazy things the: make sense. His T.V. credits include the Today Show on NBC, Good Morning America, Showtime Comedy Club Network, A&E's Comedy on the Road and America's Funnies: People.
When he first started touring the comedy clubs he was asked to do a show at a conference of the governors of the Fifty United States. He has been busy ever since cracking up State Legislatures, NBA Teams, National Conventions, Professional Associations, Trade Unions and every imaginable group of people that can be sat together.
His corporate show list reads like the Stock Market Report: GE... IBM... 3M... Coca Cola... Ford... Pfizer... Merck... Pepsi... Alcoa... Dupont... Toyota... Kroger... Bank One... and thousands more... big cap, small cap and privately held.
Bob Batch likes nothing more than to be thrust in front of a serious meeting. "I've got the suit on, I look like one of them and I get to say whatever I want." "It's like goofing off in class." After a long day of serious meetings about big, important, c-span kind-of stuff let Bob take over.
"Three days later we are still talking about some of your lines. I told some of my coworkers this morning what they missed. I knew it would be fun. But I had no idea you would be so good! You are a master of your craft. At one point in your act, I couldn't even catch my breath, as I was Iaughing so hard. My throat got sore and my eyes were watering. Shopping with your wife, the University initials and those crazy sound-it-out words were all excellent."
---Scott La Duke - Manager Hilliard Lyons/PNC Bank
"Bob Batch is a little reminiscent of Tim Conway, hurling streams of slightly bent jokes from behind an innocent face, there breaking into a contagious giggle. When working at a full gallop he looks like a Methodist minister's son turned loose on boys night out."
---Scene Magazine

* "A loony Kentucky comic had them rolling in the aisles." Boston Globe
* "Haven't seen Bob Batch? SMATTER CHEW?" San Francisco Examiner
