The Comedy Castle Podcast

Podcast #253: Nate Armbruster For NYE

Nate Armbruster has his first chance to headline a New Year’s Eve show at The Comedy Castle – and he’s the first headliner of 2026! Nate tells Joel why he’s happy to be at the club, and he’d be happy to do nothing if he wasn’t there. Plus, Nate and Joel compare wedding stories, and that Jardiance jingle is so annoying, but the folks that take it are a-ok. End 2025 with Nate and The Comedy Castle, or start 2026 the same way. Either way, tix are at the link below. Listen on Spotify, YouTube or Apple Podcasts Visit comedycastle.com for tickets and more information Facebook Instagram

Matt Holt has been waiting years to get back on the Comedy Castle stage and this week is it! Matt and Joel catch up about Matt’s start in comedy, his moving around to different states and what he misses about Michigan, and their mutual love of Bruce Springsteen.

Podcast #251: Jason Jamerson Comes Clean

Jason Jamerson has made his name as a Detroit comic who works clean. But don’t get that confused with someone who doesn’t have opinions or isn’t funny. Jason tells Joel why the Detroit Lions suck all of sudden, his recent foot surgery (and why he’s having another one), why he took a job at Target and much more. Jason is a comedic force who has four shows this weekend – tix at the link below.

David is an all-time great Castle headliner, and should be on your calendar even if you’ve seen him before. Tix at the link below.
