The Riot Comedy Club presents Sammy Obeid (Netflix, Last Comic Standing)

Lebanese-Syrian-Palestinian-Italian American (try saying it really fast) Sammy knows a lot about mixin’ it up. After majoring in Math at UC Berkeley and subtracting logical career options, Obeid blends his college experience with his love for being the life of the party, breaking down the latest trending topics into deliciously-medicinal bitesize jokes that laugh your abs into a six-pack and give you more new brain cells than most of your classes. Voted “Fastest Rising Star” in Campus Activities Magazine, Sammy is the currently the host of Netflix’s acclaimed show 100 Humans, where he conducts mind-blowing scientific and social experiments on a group of 100 test subjects (don’t worry they agreed to it).

He’s also appeared on NBC’s America’s Got Talent, Last Comic Standing, TBS’s Conan, and often reminds strangers that he was the first comedian to ever tell jokes on the Food Network (sorry Rachael Ray). In 2013, he may have even impressed his parents by setting a world record of performing comedy 1,001 consecutive nights, with his story featured in Time Magazine and The New York Times. As soon as the pandemic hit, Sammy opened his own virtual comedy club, KO Comedy, which allows comedians from all over the globe to continue working their craft and making money during these hard times. It should come as no surprise that he’s also running for President in 2036, so mark your calendar!
