Although the world is changing, John Russell refuses to. Whether it's successful runs in regional and national radio as a host and voice-over guy, two starring roles in Midwest dinner theater, or making comedy club audiences laugh until they cry for the past 6 years across the U.S., John is self-deprecating, slightly angry, and highly likeable. His ability to "hate stuff nicely" has earned him opening spots for some of the best in the business, including: Mark Poolos, Moshe Kasher, Josh Blue, Costaki Economopoulos, Gilbert Gottfried, and truTV’s Impractical Jokers.
