* Humor!

A journalist and a young actor were sitting in a bar atop a luxury apartment building, drinking heavily and making wagers. After 7–8 rounds of shots the journalist says to the young actor “let’s make this interesting” and walks to the window looking far above the city. The journalist continued, “if you jump from this window to the ground below, using my newspaper connections I will make you more famous than you could ever imagine”. The young man thought about it and replied that “it would be crazy to attempt such a feat and would mean certain death”. The journalist assured him that it was safe and could prove it by jumping himself. “Let’s see..” said the actor. So the journalist promptly lifted the bottom window frame and lept gracefully, almost floating out of the window down to the ground below miraculously completely unharmed. The young actor seeing movie deals and adoring fans convinces himself that there must be some trick maybe an air vent block air to cushion the blow so when the journalist returned the young man finally agreed. Counting to three the actor jumped, plummeting to the ground with an awful thud, instantly dying. The journalist returned to the bar where the bartender, while pouring a shot said “ you’re a real jerk when you’re drunk Superman”!

________

A first-generation Italian-American born and raised in Westchester, New York, Anthony Rodia came out of the womb making people laugh. In his 20’s he tried a few open mics, but ultimately took a different career path as a finance manager of a luxury car dealership. In 2019, Rodia returned to comedy and left his day job to become a full-time stand-up comic. He hit the ground running and performed 100 shows in just nine months, and within three years Anthony has gained a massive fan base online and around the country.

In a very short time, Anthony gained over 900,000 social media followers and his YouTube videos have amassed over 22 million views. Rodia’s comedy pulls from his real life and razor-sharp observations on marriage, parenthood, road rage, and everything else worthy of a social media rant.

With the onset of quarantine, Anthony made the most of a captive audience, delivering a staggering 86 weekly videos. “ROAD RAGE WEDNESDAY” became a fan favorite, but his Uncle Vinny and Zia Lucia characters transformed into a phenomenon. They are the crazy uncle and aunt you love but can’t be out in public with, who speak their minds (whether you asked for it or not).

Rodia also host the weekly podcast, Little Bit of Laughs on Podcast One. Get to know the comedian behind your favorite viral videos and stand-up comedy alongside his co-host and radio legend Goumba Johnny. Join Anthony and Goumba as they get into hot topics, rants, pranks, and listener’s questions and stories.

Anthony has appeared on Elvis Duran and the Morning Show, FOX’s Good Day New York, and Elizabeth & Elisa on News 12, he quietly claimed the throne of “KING OF OFF THE BOAT COMEDY.”

Rodia is currently selling out comedy clubs and theaters across the country on his Totally Relatable Tour.
