Comedy vs. Coronavirus: Jon Reep on the Line in Humor During the Pandemic

Published: April 8, 2020, 5 a.m.

Some say laughter is the best medicine, but is it OK to be funny during the coronavirus pandemic?

On this week's Tying It Together with Tim Boyum, we chat with comedian and N.C. native Jon Reep about the challenges this pandemic has created for comedians.

You might remember Reep from the national Dodge commercials ("That thing got a Hemi?") or winning Last Comic Standing on NBC in 2007.

It's a hilarious conversation about his career and dealing with the current challenges.  We also felt it was a great time to smile after weeks of very serious and heavy topics. 

Wait until you hear the "interesting" stories about fan requests.
