Voted Charleston, SC's Best Comic of 2022 and now a nationally touring comedian that has opened for many headliners including Darren Knight, Red Squirrel, and Christian Johnson. I have performed at venues such as Carolines on Broadway, Atlanta Comedy Theater, and Bricktown Comedy Club, Louisville Comedy Club, Charlotte Comedy Zone, and for corporate audiences all over the country. My comedy can be corporate clean to R depending on the client's needs. I describe my comedy as observational. I talk about everything from my military service, parenting, relationships, and the weird things I see in everyday life.
We had a conference (for 1000 active duty military members) with alot of hard hitting/policy type issues. Robin was the relief we all needed to relax and laugh. She had our crowd in stitches. The survey we put out to our members has her as hands down the best part of our conference. I highly recommend.
Robin was terrific to work with because she understands how to run a professional gig while still bringing the casual, laid-back environment you expect for a comedy show. I really appreciated that Robin had no problem doing a pre-event consultation to plan out the content for our talk/show. It allowed us to run a professional event that had structure and hit all the conversation points we were looking for. During the event, Robin did an amazing job balancing the "serious" conversation about mental health with comedy - I think we hit all the right cords that resonated with our employee base. And she's funny too! Robin's show also included a colleague of hers, PT Bratton, who was equally as hilarious and spoke about the importance of using comedy as a mental health tool. I highly, highly, highly recommend you work with Robin and her team! I know I can't wait to work with her again and recommend her.
Robin was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was prepared and delivered a presentation that was informational and humorous, which is perfect for a work setting.
Our American Legion Post 166 Goose Creek SC, partnered with Robin and her Co. Best Medicine Brigade for a comedy showcase. It was an absolute amazing night full of laughter thanks to the top notch comedians and Robin's expertise in producing a quality show. The attendance and revenue far exceeded our expectations. We will definitely continue to host comedy shows because our community needs events like this. The laughter in the room was so contagious- it was a feel good night all around for everyone!!! I would recommend this type of event to other Posts for outreach to their communities and growing membership.
I've been watching Robin since she first started doing comedy, and she is amazing! Hilarious jokes along with an attitude that's fun with "just enough" of an edge. She can work with any crowd from corporate rooms to comedy clubs! She can work clean or "not so clean." I have booked her many times and she's been a delight to work with. Her military background adds an air of professionalism that, frankly, most entertainers lack. Not Robin, she's on-time, professional, and most of all HILARIOUS!!!!
The three things I look for in a comedian are, Be Funny, Be easy to work with, and Be professional.
Robin is all three. I will definitely book her again.
