Jake was amazing! We hired him for my husbands 40th & I couldn’t have asked for a better comedian! He had us all laughing the whole time!

Jake was great and people attending enjoyed his routine. He improvised when needed and engaged all in the group. My husband wanted people to laugh and we did. Jake should get 10 stars!

We had an intimate fundraiser and wanted some comedic relief. Jake and Erin did an awesome job. Our crew was laughing, engaged, and had such a nice time. My cheeks hurt from smiling so much. Definitely worth the money and more! You’ll have a great time with Jake. He was also clean, sober, and punctual, if that matters to you.

I booked Jake as a surprise for our school staff for our meeting day without students. He did a great job reading the crowd and kept everyone laughing from start to finish. His jokes played off the different subject areas that the staff taught and were completely appropriate and spot on. Extra kudos to him for using our principal for many of his jokes throughout the show. Multiple staff members came up to me and told me how much they enjoyed his show. We hope to book him again in the future.

We booked Jake for a stress relief event at our school. The teachers and staff loved him and want to make it an annual event. He was able to draw everyone into his act. Very quick and clever, played off the group! It made a great start to our day and week at a stressful time of the school year.

We are a Senior Living Community and Jake did a great job! Our residents really enjoyed the show and we definitely would invite him back in the future.

Thought he did a good job.

Jake is a very funny guy. His humor is to engage with the audience and play off of their personalities, idiosyncrasies and couple"ness" - not sure if that is a real word, but ok!
He had everyone laughing including himself, as the audience was eager to joke back with him. He was able to read the room and guests, and create some humor to play one on one with individuals.
He started our night, and it set a great tone for our guests. Everyone was laughing and enjoying themselves.
I was worried that someone might feel embarrassed to be called out by a comedian, but he was really funny and everyone gravitated to him.
I appreciate the professionalism in setting up and use of a microphone.
Jake, keep continuing to hone your craft and creating humor, you are very good at it.
We hired Jake for our wine party with about 35 people and it could not have gone better. His ability to work a crowd is top notch and his jokes were incredible. If you are looking for a way to make your event or party a success I highly recommend hiring him.

Jake did an improve style of comedy, interacting with the audience. Very quick wit, and he got a lot of laughs!
Comedian
Jake was awesome. Had the whole group (130ish) laughing the whole bit. Would absolutely book him again!

Absolutely killed at our company Christmas party. Jake worked the crowd and performed a 30 minute set. He had us all in stitches and is still a daily topic of discussion around the office. Book this guy before he blows up and you can’t afford him!

What was promised was not delivered. He used foul language and derogatory terms that were totally inappropriate especially when you have children in the room. We did talk to him months prior and the day of on what was acceptable. He should not advertise himself as a Christian Comedian. Very Very disappointed

Response from Jake Cannon Stand-up Comedy:
Jake was told he was performing for a men's group and that he could be loose with language. He was never told there would be children in the audience, especially children of 5 years old.
In fact, he was told it was a sex addict and drug addiction group men's night. And that they were used to "dirty material." Jake asked this question several times over the course of countless phone calls with the booker.
Everyone in the audience was having a great time as evidenced by the tape of the show.
Because Jake is a forgiving Christian man who walks in the footsteps of Jesus, he has donated his entire fee from this show to The Boys and Girls Club of America. God Bless.
Jake is professional, funny and was a great asset to my birthday celebration.
Jake Cannon did a awesome job at my 54year . Everyone enjoyed him and had everyone laughing. I can't wait to book Jake for my next event.
Jake was a little nervous. But, he was funny and engaging. Thanks.
