Today’s Panel:

Paul Venier – ComedyTornado.com

Paul Venier has been called “The One Man Comedy Tornado” and after seeing one of his shows you’ll understand why. Paul’s shows consist of super high energy, guitar parodies, piano expertise, serious music, props, and rapid interplay with his audience, that is often stunned by his clever quickness. Most amazing though is the way Paul continually weaves the crowd throughout the show using his photographic memory. Born and raised in Levittown, NY he now calls Toms River, NJ, home.
