Comedy Rumble Presents Stoner Rob!
Hailing from Riverside, CA, Stoner Rob got his start in comedy in 2008 while working at Inland Empire’s KCAL 96.7 radio station. Through his role there, he had the opportunity to interview and connect with professional comedians, sparking his passion for stand-up. Inspired to take the stage himself, he made his comedy debut just a week later—at none other than the Ontario Improv’s legendary Dirty Show, a monthly sell-out event. From that moment on, he never looked back.
Since then, Stoner Rob has become one of the most recognizable and electrifying comedians on the stand-up circuit. With a high-energy style and a knack for keeping crowds "lit," he tours relentlessly, performing across the U.S. and beyond.
Stoner Rob’s comedy prowess has landed him on Netflix’s Making of Drugs and earned him the title of Cannabis Host of the Year (2019, 2020). His debut comedy special, Too High to Remember What I Forgot, premiered on Amazon Prime on April 20, 2023. His highly anticipated second special is set for release in 2025.
