Buy TicketsComedy Church
Comedy Church is one part stand-up comedy show (eg. The Standups, The Comedy Lineup), one part late-night interview (eg. The Late Show, Conan), and one part satirical church service (eg. The People’s Temple of the Disciples of Christ).
Comedy Church is hosted by Greg Kyte and Adam Broud. Both of them used to be insanely religious people but are now faithless and destined to burn in hell. In the long term, it’s kind of a bummer. But in the short term, it makes for a pretty good comedy show.
Each Comedy Church show features new comedians as well as religious topics. Although Adam and Greg are atheists, they’re not the a-hole type. For instance, interviews focus on comedically learning about guests’ experiences rather than trying to find “gotcha” moments regarding religion. To emphasize this, past guests have included people of diverse backgrounds and members of various faiths.

Susan Rice
For over 42 years Susan Rice has been making people laugh.
Before discovering stand-up, Rice spent nine years training and performing as a professional actress. She stepped onto her first comedy stage in March 1983—and by 1986, she was living in Los Angeles, working some of the most well-known comedy clubs across the country.
As she aged out of the comedy clubs, Rice found a new rhythm performing at charity fundraisers, corporate events, and community shows. During the pandemic, she helped bring laughter back to her local neighborhood by producing the St. Johns Comedy Festival in North Portland in both 2021 and 2022—giving talented local comics a stage after more than a year of shutdown.
In 2023, a submission to Don’t Tell Comedy led to an invitation to Los Angeles to record a 10-minute set for their massively popular YouTube channel. The set premiered on March 11, 2024, and quickly went viral—racking up views and earning Susan an invitation to perform for the celebrity judges on America’s Got Talent (AGT).
Later that year, she filmed her first-ever comedy special, “Silver Alert,” produced by Super Nice Guy Productions and distributed by Comedy Dynamics.
Susan never expected this late-career resurgence—but she’s thrilled to still be doing what she loves: making people laugh.
