Adam Maldonado is a stand-up comic and producer originally from Memphis, Tennessee, now based in Arkansas. Known for his sharp wit, dark humor, and offbeat perspective, Adam has performed across the country, from gritty underground showcases in Las Vegas to major comedy festivals and private gigs. He’s a frequent host and crowd favorite, bringing his unique style to clubs, cannabis events, and any room weird enough to handle it.

In addition to performing, Adam produces Don’t Tell Comedy shows in Little Rock and Jonesboro, curates his Twitch stream for fans of comedy and chaos, and hosts the podcast Fire Ass Ganja—a blend of comedy, cannabis culture, and off-the-rails conversations. Whether he’s riffing onstage, organizing unforgettable pop-up shows, or dropping stoner philosophy on a mic, Adam is a voice you won’t forget… even if you’re too high to remember where you heard him.

Lucas Aaron Smith is the self-proclaimed “biggest comedian in Arkansas.” Standing at a whopping 6’10”, no wonder audiences have started to take notice. But his imposing physique should not overshadow the fact that Lucas is one of the sharpest joke writers in the Natural state; high praise to which all of his peers will attest. Boasting seven years of onstage experience, Lucas has been penning his observations and clever twists since his freshman year of college (a financial misadventure that he quickly dropped out of to pursue stand-up comedy full-time). Since then, he has worked with Sean Patton, Sam Tallent, Heather Shaw, and KILL TONY’s Kam Patterson. He was also the only comedian from his state to be selected for the first-ever Big Diamond Comedy Festival in Bentonville, AR. In addition to performing, Lucas also has a side business where he works with up-and-coming comics and seasoned professionals alike on how to improve their material by utilizing his masterful grasp of joke structure and theory. His joyful and boisterous delivery, blended with his sheer joke-craftsmanship, makes Lucas Aaron Smith one of the shining gems in the hidden diamond mine of Arkansas comedy.
