Joseph Franklin

I am the traveling jester for Joseph Franklin, in other words I'm the comedian that pumps up the crowd before he starts the "real" entertainment

Joseph once described me as a pure southern mash boogie comedian from Alabama with bare feet, mush-mouthed drawling and a mile-wide social streak. I don’t know what that means, but he said he saw it on a Lynyrd Skynyrd bio and thought it sounded cool.

I got my start at the tender age of 18 after acting on a challenge from my friends to enter an open mic competition, and I haven't let up since.

After entertaining the state of Alabama, I continued this rapid rise from small town comedian to nationwide fame.(Ok my publicist told me to add that part, I'm really not that conceited) After many appearances in music videos, game shows and commercials and more…I started hitting the road as the tour comic for Joseph.Since then I have entertained over 100,000 people in some of the largest venues in North America.
