Host by Mark Christopher Lawrence

Mark Christopher Lawrence was born in the waning hours of May 22, 1964 in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in Compton, California by his single mother Gragu Lee Barnes (affectionately know as Lee) alongside his two siblings Jerry and Laura. As a child MCL was always rambunctious though a bit shy (until he got to know you), a trait that he outgrew with the help of his 10th grade English teacher Mrs.Patricia Schilling. She was instrumental in setting him on the career path of entertainment by introducing him to competitive speaking and theater and a mentor by the name of Perry Brents, who along with MCL’s best childhood friend Lennon Trotter got him not only interested but started in stand-up comedy during his junior year in high school. This introduction ultimately became the means by which his now nearly four decade long stand-up comedy career began.
