Big John Small would love to help you with your next project!

STAND-UP COMEDY (Electronic Press Kit)

John has been a FAN of comedy his whole life, but he first climbed on stage during an OPEN MIC contest in Sioux Falls in 2009. He competed against 15 other comics and John walked away with 1st place. Since then he's had the chance to work with some of his favorite comics, including Bob Newhart, Bill Engval, Larry The Cable Guy, Dennis Regan, Frank Caliendo, Joe Gatto and the late Bob Saget. (and MANY more!)
John's FAVORITE shows to do are Clean Comedy Fundraisers and Corporate Comedy Shows!

RADIO ANNOUNCER
John and his wife Heidi host a daily radio show "The John & Heidi Show" which started on Sunny Radio in Sioux Falls in 2010 and was then put into syndication in 2015. The show can be heard on about 300 radio stations around the US and a few other countries through syndication. The radio show, on six days a week, is also available as a PODCAST!

ACTOR (sort of)
John and his family were involved in making the movie DEEREY: OFF THE WALL in 2019. John plays Officer Jerry. The film can be found on Amazon Prime, where is has 3.9 stars (out of 5... not 10)


The film is a silly local movie that did not take itself too seriously. We had a blast making it... and love that it makes people smile yet today! Except for a few crabby ONE STAR PEOPLE who "didn't get it". These people really NEED to laugh!
