If you’ve been paying attention, you’ve already seen it.

The packed rooms.

The momentum.

The countless Instagram posts (sorry, not sorry).

The shows moving at Mach speed.

What you may not know is that it’s now official.

Blurred Minds Media and Zero2Funny Comedy are formally partnered in business—locking arms to push comedy forward at the highest level.

For anyone tapped into the regional comedy scene, Blurred Minds Media and Comedian JWal—founder, owner, operator—are the standard when it comes to elite live comedy experiences.

My professional comedic journey began not too long ago, when I founded Wildcat Comedy Co. in Fall 2024. I was dedicated to bringing organization to our already budding comedy community while introducing my own approach to the comedy show business—grateful to help shape and strengthen the local scene as it developed, where Wildcat Comedy Co. still operates today.

Meanwhile, JWal was slinging shows across Louisville, Dayton, Chicago, and all of Tennessee and Indiana. Booking him as our April close-out headliner confirmed what was already clear—we shared the same vision. Even as adjacent collaborators throughout 2025 (including the Zac Amico tour stop—another killer night, no shock there wink-wink), the foundation was set.

Fast forward to today, and that foundation has grown into the present: Zero2Funny Comedy, now fully partnered with Blurred Minds Media.

J-Wal leads show execution and talent, while I handle the audience-facing pre-show operation—marketing, digital media, and advertising. Every promo, highlight reel, commercial, and ad campaign runs through my lane, ensuring the right audiences know exactly where to be on show night.

The work is paying off. We’re fresh off a sold-out weekend at Reed’s Upstairs Lounge in Seymour, Indiana—on Hoosier football gameday, no less. That kind of turnout isn’t luck; it’s the result of consistent groundwork.

Our mission is simple: bring premiere comedy entertainment to the nation.

Over the next two weeks, we’re keeping the foot on the gas. On January 17 in Louisville at Mr. G’s, we welcome Atlanta’s own Fab Monroe, backed by some of the region’s heaviest hitters. Then next weekend, Nashville’s own BellyButton joins us in Lexington to debut Hot Fudge Fridays Comedy Show. Two shows you don’t want to miss—and honestly, you don’t want to miss anything we’ve got cooking. It’s all gas, no brakes, premium shows only.

So stay tuned—big news is coming soon from Blurred Minds Media x Zero2Funny Comedy. Because just like College

We are coming to your cit-ayyy.

Huge thanks to JWal and The Gentlemen Homicide (s/o Ian Sethi and the squad) for everything I’ve been grateful to build alongside you so far.

Here’s to continuing to win. 🍻
