High energy and unique observations of everyday life are just two things comedian Tom Riehl has been catching people’s eye with throughout his comedy career. His odd, yet honest way of looking at life has made him a favorite among comedy club audiences throughout the U.S. An unassuming look, coupled with a hard-hitting delivery allows Tom to talk about many off beat subjects that most people only think about.

Whether at a comedy club, a corporate event, or in the kitchen, stand-up comedian Tom has been making people laugh since the early nineties.

Tom has worked with a variety of performers including comedians Bob Saget, Paula Poundstone, Alonzo Bodden, Shawn Wayans, and James P. Connolly as well as musical acts Berlin, Three Dog Night and David Pack of Ambrosia.

In addition to stand-up, Tom combined his love of cooking with an amusing way of looking at food, and created Food Rules, an outrageous, off-the-wall, cable cooking show which was featured on the Food Network's special “Funniest Food TV” and can currently be seen in a variety of markets throughout the country.

Over the years, Tom has appeared on a variety of television shows including ABC's "America's Funniest People". His creation of Subservient Suzie, America’s first politically incorrect talking doll, landed him a spot on the show and a $3,000 prize.

In addition to stand up comedy, Tom also hosts live events and has appeared in a variety of television commercials and is a frequent guest on radio and television programs throughout the U.S. He also co-hosts the Internet radio show "Down and Dirty Live" where he dispenses relationship and sexual advice with a comedy slant. 

 
 

SOME NOTABLE PAST PROJECTS

   

FOOD RULES - Originating from Los Angeles, CA, FOOD RULES is an outrageously funny, off-the-wall cooking show that takes the old, tired format of cooking shows and turns it inside out. Each week the show takes TV viewers on an unforgettable journey through Tom's kitchen as he prepares and cooks a variety of familiar and not so familiar recipes with the greatest of unease. Unlike cooking shows of the past and present, FOOD RULES allow their viewers to witness and relate to the real-life perils of trying to prepare an actual recipe from start to finish. The show offers simplicity to cooking that no other show has yet to achieve.

DOWN AND DIRTY - A radio talk show that combines expert advice on relationships, sexual titillating subject matter and lots of humor.

THE LAFF PACK - Their love of stand-up comedy has kept them working in the business for many years, their dedication to it brought them together as The Laff Pack. Four distinct personalities (Vince Harper, Julie Kidd and Cindy Burns) and styles of comedy with one common goal...to have fun! A unique blend of stand-up comedy, music, dance and video production, The Laff Pack is much more than just a stand-up comedy show.  Laff Pack website
