Josh Blue & Ralphie May
Two of the most popular comedians on the series Last Comic Standing, Josh Blue and Ralphie May, are joining forces for a comedy show that is guaranteed to defy stereotypes and break barriers. Since first appearing on Mind of Mencia and later winning Season 4 of Last Comic Standing, Blue has emerged as one of the hottest comedians in the country. He previously appeared in Las Vegas at the 2004 edition of The Comedy Festival, winning $10,000 in the Royal Flush Comedy Competition. In 2006, he became the first comedian to perform on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Blue is a diverse and triumphant individual, refusing to bow to any of the challenges that come with living with cerebral palsy. Veteran comedian May’s popularity exploded after the success of the first season of Last Comic Standing. His special brand of comedy combines the familiar elements of hip-hop and topical comedy with a dash of Southern, down-home flavor and quick wit. He got his start at the age of 17 by winning a contest to open for comedian Sam Kinison. Among his late-night appearances, he received a standing ovation for his performance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. He also worked as an actor, writer and producer on ESPN’s Mohr Sports starring Jay Mohr. May’s first DVD, Just Correct, went platinum. He followed it up with Girth of a Nation and his own Comedy Central special.
