If the adage is true — that tragedy plus time equals comedy — then Ryan Sickler has paid his dues on the left side of the equation.  Born in Baltimore Ryan lost his father when he was 16. After that he bounced from one relative to another. And while his early years might have seemed rocky that tumultuous childhood gave him both fodder for material and armor against the relentless onslaught that is life as a standup comic.

His television appearances include The Pete Holmes Show  Comedy Central’s Tosh.O  Live At Gotham  Cutman and The Late Late Show.

Beyond standup Ryan Sickler is an engaging storyteller.  You can catch him every Tuesday (Toozdee) on his podcast The CrabFeast.  Inspired by his hometown the show celebrates the things Ryan loves most — storytelling family friends and laughter.
