About the Lineup:

Willie Macc, a breakout star from the hit BET show College Hill: Virgin Island, has successfully transitioned from reality TV to becoming a respected actor and comedian in Hollywood. With over 100 million views on his stand-up and comedy content across social media. Willie’s sharp wit and relatable humor continue to connect with audiences around the world even landing him on Americas Got Talent in season 20. On screen, Willie has appeared in popular shows like CSI, Hulu’s Casual, ABC’s The Goldbergs, and starred in the cult comedy Meet the Spartans alongside Kevin Sorbo, Carmen Electra, and Tiffany Haddish. Most recently, Willie taped a full comedy special with Dry Bar Comedy "Dad, Grandmas and Bears, Oh My", and his own Special, Good Dad, Bad Father, further cementing his presence on the national comedy scene. His stand-up has also been showcased on TruTV’s LaffMobb LaffTracks and his clips with Don’t Tell Comedy have amassed over 45 million views online.

Ahmed Al-Kadri is a Yemeni-American comedian based in LA. As a young child in Dallas, Ahmed dreamed of being an accountant, but his immigrant parents forced him to be a comedian instead. Ahmed started developing his comedy skills early, doing impressions of his mom’s Turkish soap operas and Mr. Bean, as well as spot-on imitations of his sister and brothers. Ahmed was one of those kids who was friends with everybody, memorizing one-liners from his dad and trying them out on the kids at school the next day. Between go-kart races and soccer with his five siblings, Ahmed had a classic American childhood, playing “ding-dong ditch” and throwing Taco Bell sauce packets at cars. In 2018, Ahmed moved to LA to pursue a career in standup. Ahmed has gained a large following on TikTok and Instagram, thanks to crowd-favorite sketches like "Roommates with Anxiety," "Arab at an Indian Wedding” and the “Arab Roommate” series, which compliments long-time friend Ryan Kelly’s series, “When You Have A Midwest Roommate.” A viral hit, his "F-Boi Rehab" series was featured on both Buzzfeed and DankMemes. Ahmed has been featured on Comedy Central and you may also recognize Ahmed from his appearance as Liam on the web-series "David Diamondhands" and on Fox's Love Connection (Season 2, Episode 8) It wasn’t a match, but at least he got a good story out of it!

Arijana Ramic is a charming, but devious, standup comedian and writer originally from Seattle, WA. You can now find her taking the LA scene by storm and even working at the Comedy Store as a “door guy.” Arijana is able to sweetly navigate dark topics like growing up with Bosnian immigrant parents, identifying as Type A, and sadness, all with a smile on her face. Arijana has opened for the likes of Jesus Trejo, Annie Lederman, Chris Redd, and Pauly Shore. She has performed in competitions and festivals including The Seattle International Comedy Competition (2019), Madison Comedy Week (2021), and was among Best of the Fest at the Burbank Comedy Festival (2022). You may have read her satirical musings on sites like Flexx Mag, Slackjaw, or THE FOREIGNER, of which she is the Founder & Editor. She also directs, produces, and performs in digital sketch groups like “Aisha & Arijana” and “Diverse Group of Friends.” Or, you might recognize her voice from the Burning the Light podcast. She once overheard a headliner she was working with describe her comedy as “spicy” and that accounts for 92% of her ego.

Danny Plom is an actor and comedian from Seattle WA. His parents divorced at a young age leaving him to be raised by his grandmother. His childhood was filled with comedy albums ranging from Eddie Murphy to Kevin James which inspired his passion for comedy. Upon graduating high school he moved to Los Angeles to pursue stand up comedy and has now performed in thousands of shows all across the country. Danny made his TV stand up debut on Amazon Prime and recently starred in the hit drama Station 19 on ABC and Hulu.

The Lineup also includes Carlos Medrano. The show will be hosted by Jeff Kane.
