    Just like Nate Bargatze, Mike Birbiglia, and Anthony Jeselnik; Chris Schlichting also has a unique last name. Chris is considered by many to be a top 100 comedian in (eastern) Iowa.

    With a comedy career spanning over 20 years, he is finally confident that he knows how to work a mic stand. Described as “hilarious” by his mom and “not good at sports” by his dad, Chris takes pride in his immature and lovable style. He once opened for Caroline Rhea, who voiced the mom in Phineas and Ferb. He also once opened for Gilbert Gottfried, who was in the movies Problem Child and Problem Child 2.

    Chris has been heard on the Bob and Tom Show, Sirius radio, and has a Dry Bar special. He also recently released his debut comedy album, “The Son of Tom and Geri.”
