Luke Pauling is a Minneapolis-based comic who was just looking for an excuse to leave his apartment. Cue to today, he’s gone from appreciating stand up comedy from the sidelines to writing and rewriting jokes on his boss's dime. Soon after starting comedy, Luke became a finalist in ACME’s Funniest Person in Minneapolis, House of Comedy's Funniest Person with a Day Job, as well as Comedy Corner Underground’s Funniest Person in Time and Space contests, and opened for acts such as Dave Waite and SNL’s Tommy Brennan. Luke’s been able to find humor in digging through the awkward moments of his childhood and Catholic upbringing, and can be found sharing those less-than-stellar experiences all around the Midwest.
