Comedy Corner: Ryan Stout

Comedy Corner: Ryan Stout

Ryan Stout has a style that recalls comics of an era that’s passed us by. He digs one level deeper than some comics who hold the microphone, and his jokes always have a point of view. Yet Stout isn’t preaching from a pulpit because he is too busy crafting jokes that are respectful to the art form. They are innovative in the manner of George Carlin, Mort Sahl, Bill Hicks, and even Jonathan Swift.
