Host – Marc Yaffee
Marc is a gifted writer and performer, delivering original comedy, inspired by his multi-cultural upbringing and Native roots. Marc careens across the comedy landscape leaving a trail of laughs that has made him a hit with club, casino and corporate audiences alike. Marc combines hip, edgy observations with a rapid, one-liner delivery style.
While doing sports, Marc started writing for the school newspaper, developing his love of writing that still shows in his standup today. Marc continued writing at the University of San Diego where he served as sports editor while commuting regularly to the bars of Tijuana, Mexico.
Guest Comedian – Tim Babb
Tim Babb is half white, half black…and all nerd. Tim puts on a TV clean show that goes from Disneyland to his bi-racial background and remains inclusive to all the whole time. Before moving to Los Angeles, Tim Babb began his career as an air personality on Mix 106.5FM in San Jose, California. Doing stand-up for so many years in the shadow of San Francisco resulted in an act that takes the edge of the big city and combines it with the geek factor of the Silicon Valley…with a splash of energy that’s all Babb. Seen on NBC’s Last Comic Standing this is Tim’s first appearance with Tahoe Comedy North.
