GREG WARREN: THE IMPULSE BUY TOUR
Greg Warren is a beloved stand-up comedian known for his sharp, relatable humor that resonates with everyday families across the country. Warren’s latest comedy special, The Champ, was produced by Nate Bargatze and premiered on Nateland’s YouTube channel. The Champ takes audiences through a hilarious exploration of the dangers of poison ivy, the rise of high school fishing teams, and his own (somewhat questionable) claims to champion status. Greg’s previous special, The Salesman — co-produced by Nate Bargatze and 800 Pound Gorilla Media — was hailed by The New York Times as “[having] done for peanut butter what Jerry Seinfeld did for Pop-Tarts and Jim Gaffigan did for Hot Pockets.” The hour tells the story of Greg’s post-college years selling Jif and Pringles for Procter & Gamble, a formative chapter that ultimately launched his career in stand-up comedy. He can be seen in his Amazon Prime Special, Where The Field Corn Grows, Fish Sandwich on Dry Bar Comedy, Late Night with Seth Meyers, The Late Late Show and Comedy Central Presents. Greg’s audience consists of a widely diverse spectrum, having performed as a finalist on BET’s Coming to the Stage and on Country Music Television. He is a longtime favorite on the nationally syndicated Bob & Tom Show, where he also contributes a recurring call-in segment known as The Warren Report. Greg’s material has been a daily staple on SiriusXM for over a decade and can now be heard regularly on the Pure Comedy channel (formerly Laugh USA), as well as Jeff & Larry’s Comedy Roundup. He’s guested on top podcasts including Nateland, Never Not Funny, Bertcast, Dumb People Town, The Adam Carolla Show, and many more. He was selected as a New Face of Comedy at JFL, has performed on Comedy Central’s Premium Blend and participated in NBC’s Last Comic Standing. Greg is also the co-host of The Consumers, a podcast on Nate Bargatze’s Nateland network, where he and fellow comedians Tim Convy & Sean O’Brien do a weekly deep dive into one national brand. Greg hails from St. Louis, MO, where his father was a high school wrestling coach, and his mother made him play clarinet in the band. He has captivated audiences with anecdotes about the conflict inherent in meshing the two disparate high school identities of varsity wrestler and band geek. Greg was also a West Point Cadet, where he distinguished himself by amassing an impressive tally of demerits and endless hours of pointless marching. After moving on to the University of Missouri, he studied journalism and became an All-American college wrestler. Warren can be seen working out his new material on a brand new domestic tour throughout 2025 and 2026. — For ADA seating, please call us at 417-863-9491.

You may also know her as the “Entitled Housewife”, the outspoken viral golf character Becky created who co-starred in the two virtual comedy variety specials she self-produced to help spread laughter during the yearlong pandemic. Becky’s explosively unique character antics and viral videos have racked up millions of views across social media and garnered fans across the country (and the country clubs!). In 2022, she released the original song ‘Mama Needs a Claw’ that can be heard on the radio or any major streaming service. Today, the comedian is on her highly anticipated The Beasts In Me Tour. She continues to sell-out around the world with her related comedy. In addition to touring internationally as a stand-up comedian, Deadline included Becky in their “The Future Of Funny: 15 Comedians To Watch In 2025.” She was previously named a JFL Montreal New Face of Comedy where her stand-out multi-character performance landed her a sketch show development deal and a number of voiceover jobs with DreamWorks, Nickelodeon and Netflix. In her explosive debut stand-up special, ENTITLED, Becky Robinson comes in hot with her signature high-energy comedy. She dives into the chaos of coming out as a lesbian during the pandemic, the pitfalls of being way too friendly as an adult, and her unapologetic love for Taco Bell. But the night wouldn’t be complete without a full-blown appearance from her iconic character, the Entitled Housewife, who crashes the stage to dish about Trish, the gieurlz, Macabee, Dashell and, of course, SCOTT!!!
