CONGRATS to Comment # 6: Renee!!!!
What a funny-funny man he is. I listened to Jon Reep’s Metro Jethro CD and watched the DVD last night and I could hardly wait until this morning to tell you about him.
His stories, his jokes and his humor are amazing. He’s just got that small town hick attitude with that big-time comedic flare. Scripts like Nake-Etiquette- Rules for Nudity and Small Town-i-tude will have you grabbing at your ribs due to the pain inflicted from the laughter he’ll throw at ya!!
Jon Reep was born in Hickory, NC. He moved to Raleigh to earn a Bachelors of Arts degree in theater at North Carolina State University. He was the “Hemi guy” in Dodge’s Ram ad campaign- you remember him, don’t you? It’s the commercial where a redheaded hillbilly who leans out of a beat-up car and utters the, now famous, line: “That thing gotta Hemi?” yeah, I thought you’d remember him with that one.
Jon has been a pretty busy person. Some of the places you might have seen him: NBC’s “Last Comic Standing”, Comedy Central’s “Premium Blend” or you might have seen him on TBS’s “Pit Stop Comedy”, NBC’s “Late Friday”, or the ABC Sitcom “Rodney” as Officer Gerald Bob the dim-witted cop. The one place you might remember him most is in “Harold & Kumar escape from Guantanamo Bay” released on April 25th, 2008.

Hi, I think the one thing I like about stand up comedians is that they bring everyone together with their jokes and laughter. A comedian can make fun of anyone no matter the race, religion, profession, etc. You can have the most diverse crowd and find everyone laughing together for that short period of time. I have never seen another area where that occurs.
First of all, Love Jon Reep, he’s great! I relate to him since most of his act is about small town life. Going to the Comedy Works theater locally is a good night out, who doesn’t like to laugh! Would love to have Jon’s METRO JETHRO DVD!!
did anyone else catch the bloggers mistake that it’s not RETRO jethro…it’s METRO jethro. i think jon worked very hard to come up with this…let’s give him the decency of spelling his title correctly.
and this was the best standup i’ve EVER seen!! i’ve already ordered 40 copies for xmas gifts! thanks for the laughs!
Oona Cello,
Thank you for catching my mistake- the “blogger” you speak of is me and I’m sorry to disappoint. Yes, he is awesome and…mistakes happen- I can laugh at myself (ha-ha). It was just one of those words that “stuck” in my head (Retro, rather than Metro)…thanks!
rock on sista

This post was mentioned on Twitter by mhamabe: rt@JonReep A review of my new DVD/CD. http://lnk.ms/2YfS0 … http://lnk.ms/3zyhF...
The thing that I like about stand up comedians is that you can be having a bad day & flipping thru the channels & land on the comedy channel or even BET where there are stand ups doing their thing & just start laughing at their jokes because you can relate to a lot of what they are talking about. It turns your day around & laughter truly is the best medicine.
I like good stand up comedians that make jokes about everyday things that drive you crazy so you laugh about them to keep from screaming! Comedians remind us that life is too short to always be serious.
email subscriber, if that counts as an extra entry. If not, well…okay
