Records, The Worst Is Over, debuted at the top of the comedy charts on Amazon and iTunes. His latest album, Overwhelmed, debuted at Number 1 on Amazon and at the top of the Billboard Comedy Charts.

John Baglio is a Boston-based comedian to watch. A mainstay all over the Northeast, this affable young man has been a staple in the local scene since he was a teenager and he was recently a runner-up in the inaugural Funniest Person in Massachusetts. John has been featured in several national festivals including The World Series of Comedy, Laugh Your Asheville Off, Boston Comedy Festival, Rogue Island Comedy Festival, Granite State Festival, Cleveland Comedy Festival, and is a two-time winner of the Wootenany Comedy Festival. He has also opened for some of the top comedians in the country today, such as Hannibal Buress, Kyle Kinane, Chad Daniels, Ryan Hamilton, and Josh Wolf.

Since his younger years, Derek K. Moore has performed in front of live audiences involving mediums from live music to competitive martial arts and professional wrestling to stand up comedy as well as stage and film acting. He has performed with National Comedians such as comedy mogul Jim Gaffigan, SNL's Chris Katan and The Daily Show's Roy Woods Jr. In 2016, Derek appeared in the reboot of "Ghostbusters" and is part of the main cast from FIlm Threat's 2020 Indie Film of the Year, "The Wrong Todd" on Showtime.
