About Ahmed Ahmed:

Through being one of the most lovable comedians in the country he has quickly risen the ranks and gotten the opportunity to tour the country from coast to coast, making audiences laugh with his disarming charm and mixture of off the cuff jokes and sharply written material.
About Tesh Aytenfisu:
Tesh Aytenfisu is an up-and-coming stand-up comedian from Edmonton, Alberta. He has performed all over North America on multi-city tours, and featured in shows and festivals from Victoria to Montreal, and was recently a finalist in the CBC’s Top 100 Next-Up Comedians.
Tesh draws inspiration from his eclectic upbringing and his comedy reflects his ability to see two sides to every issue, both of which are usually wrong. He is shaped by his Ethiopian heritage and his jokes are infused with his unique Canadian perspective. He is described as fearless on stage and believes that no subject is off-limits with the spirit of levity. Audiences are drawn in by his smoothly compelling storytelling, as well as his ability to connect and laugh with strangers over wild conspiracy theories. Tesh also firmly believes in the Illuminati, as he blames them whenever he has a bad set.
