Thanks for the opportunity to share my laughs with the American Indian Nations and businesses of Minnesota
Ron came in, read the room and delivered the perfect show. He always made sure he wasn't crossing any lines but still pushed the limits. He had everyone laughing. It was a great show. Would love for our casino to book him in the future.

Thank you Le Center MN and. It was a pleasure to perform to such a receptive and enjoyable crowd. Best wishes on your endeavour to keep the County Fair vibrant and alive.
Love your style, delivery and story! So happy to be introduced to your comedy and it was the cherry on the sundae last night.
Hoping to attend your performance in TBay in July.
Thank you for generous gift of the Louis K Canada Goose… I purchased a Louis K Bear and Beaver years ago from an antique shop. Never knew the history and now I do.
Thanks again and safe travels.

Thank you so much for this lovely message! It was my first time requested by a political candidate in my 12 year career!
Ron was understanding of our situation, we couldn't have him at our event, but sent him to another event for one of our communities. I want to thank him for being able to do that. The other group was quite happy with having Ron perform for them.

I am sorry for your recent loss and hope to perform for your organization some day in the near future
Ron was the main speaker for our 2019 HOWAH Wellness Event for 400+ White Earth Reservation Business Committee employees. The event was about overall wellness and health and Ron made sure to incorporate that in his show, while using comedy as a teaching for important life lessons.
Ron is a solid guy who communicated well with our event coordinators, showed up well in advance, was super easy to work with and is just in general a great guy. As for his show, Ron cracked everyone up. Ron had everyone laughing so hard you could see mascara running down cheeks and people gasping for air. I can honestly say Ron is more than welcome to visit us again and there have been many requests for him at our next corporate events.
Ron is exceptional and anyone would be lucky to hire him--you rock, Ron!

Ron was terrific! I continue to get great feedback from the community about how much they enjoyed his performance. People were laughing so hard they were crying.... literally. When another presenter was late he was able to go out & improvise with the audience. Stayed on topic. Engaging with all ages. I highly recommend Ron & look forward to having him back.

Visiting the Dakota Nation was truly an honor and I look forward to my next visit should it arise. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality!
Ron did a wonderful job at keeping the audience laughing and did a great job with the instruments. He even got the some people involved. It was such an amazing performance to our small campus.

I am so happy to be part of this event. It was so much fun watching many of the other performers. Thank you for having me!
Ron was amazing! Everything we needed for our daughters 11th birthday came true. When my daughter shedded happy tears and stated this was the best birthday ever, meant a lot. Ron is a happy man, with a lot of joy! Flute, drum, and song performance was over the top amazing! If we ever have another event I know we will most definitely reach out to Ron! Not only did we meet this man for the very first time, he is now apart of our family! Thank you again!!

It was an amazing day to meet you and your extended family and have the opportunity to share stories, songs, and smiles. Thank you for the amazing Indian Taco! May fate bring us all together again.
Ron gave a great performance. Kept people laughing and interacted with our Lion Members made it even more fun. Everyone commented how funny he was. He treated us like we were all great friends. So glad we found him for our Clearwater Lions Christmas Party.
