Dr. Brian is always great to work with.

I have had the pleasure of working with Dr. Brian for over a decade, both in person and remotely, on seminar recordings and webinar rebroadcasts. Dr. Brian is a consummate professional who excels in engaging with his students. His unique ability to blend professionalism with humor not only enhances the learning experience but also creates an environment of joy and laughter. Working with him has always been a rewarding experience, and his infectious enthusiasm makes him a delight to collaborate with.

Funniest doctor we've ever met

We thought Doctor was just his stage name, but he is an actually published doctor who brought funny to the table both times we booked him. Very funny, smart and there is a finesse to his jokes and delivery. Most ppl want to buy your love, this guy, you want to love. Can't get enough! 10/10

What to expect

As a comedian, my humor draws from my life experiences as an older father with a doctorate degree. I am quick on my feet and enjoy audience interactions and crowd work over prepared material. Performing this way, I get to personalize the show for the moment and give the audience something that they know is truly unique. I do not get political or overly raunchy, but I am rarely 100% clean (although I can be).

As a speaker, I am often asked to speak on subjects relating to stress management and the healing benefits of humor, with overlapping content. My speaking appearances are always humorous, but it is not the same type of content you will hear at a comedy show.

Additional booking notes

For comedy shows, a microphone and a stand is all I need.

For speaking gigs, I prefer to use a podium and have a projector for my laptop.
