He also appeared on Spike TV's Manswers as a panhandling expert, proudly displaying his "Atheist, will convert for food" cardboard sign and asking a busload of school children to hand over their lunch money. Jensen's CD "To The Moon; Live at Luna's" was named one of the best comedy CDs of 2009 by The Serious Comedy Site and his recently released documentary film "Why Lie; I Need A Drink" screened at theatres from New York to California before being released on DVD this past November.

Troy Conrad

One of the few writers to complete the writing programs at Second City Los Angeles Conservatory, iO West, and Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theatre. He has performed at comedy clubs throughout the U.S., and festivals including Montreal, Dublin, Philadelphia, Calgary, and Vancouver, and Minneapolis. After performing with Arizona’s professional Shakespeare company, Southwest Shakespeare, he moved to Los Angeles not for sitcom fame, but for the good soil to grow good projects and develop as an artist.

His live DVD, “The Comedy Jesus Show,” is available at stores throughout North America. A former fundamentalist and door-to-door Bible salesman, Troy has an inside perspective on the dangers of religion and obedience and reaches a tremendous number of people. The videos he has produced, directed, or appeared in, such as “Intervention: iPhone Apps” have been viewed over 10 million times. He is also the producer of The David Feldman Comedy Podcast on iTunes, the Funny or Die series, “Runyon: Just Above Sunset,” and the upcoming Howard Bloom project “The Truth at Any Price.” Rational Entertainment will soon be releasing the DVD of “Inside the Decider,” a deep and honest version of George W.

Trevor Hill
Trevor Hill was a favorite at the San Francisco "Ha Ha Heathens" when the godless comedy show visited his hometown earlier this year. The young comedian draws on his personal life in a way that is charming and hilariously honest including his observations made while  traveling to the world's most spiritual places, the middle east and Las Vegas.
We feel most fortunate having this San Francisco Bay Area favorite on loan to us for the night.

  1. I can hardly wait!! A lot of comedians are atheists, but I've never seen an all-atheist show!
    This will be great! If you're in LA and an atheist and not there, you just don't like to laugh!
