xperiencing a Tom Simmons show is like watching your best friend entertain you with today's top headlines and issues. He is a soft-spoken, socially relevant comedian performing subject matter that ranges from the easily relatable to the mind stretching funny.

Tom Simmons is a reactionary revolutionary with a good heart. You will see the entire gambit of comedy, the energetic, the detailed story, cleverness that is quick and effecting all with a sheepish grin and a disarming edginess that leaves attentive audiences knowing both the man and themselves a little better.

As a new father, Tom uses his question everything attitude to keep honest as he justifies his radical views to his son.

Quite simply Tom Simmons is the funniest comedian you have never heard of.
