Richard’s solid hour of stand-up is peppered with hard hitting politics, insight into his own failings and struggles, clever takes on the smallest and most universal topics, and even some slam poetry. Constantly challenging the levels of what stand-up can be – this pioneer of stand-up must be seen and heard to believe.

Dubbed “Canada’s George Carlin” – with his second CD “At Least There’s Drinking” selling out wherever he goes, Richard is one of Canada’s best!

She has toured with Steve Harvey as well as opened for musical greats such as Angela Bofill and Alex Bugnon. Olivia's refreshing brand of humor serves as a great diversion for troops all over the world. Her routine covers subjects from male-female relationships to dieting to raising boys .

Olivia has performed on Black Entertainment Television's nationally syndicated comedy show "Comic View" as well as BETs Action PPV Step Up To The Mike taped in Jamaica.

RICHARD RYDER WITH ALEX WOOD & GREG SCHROEDER
