Ron McGehee

About Me

Ron McGehee is the world’s funniest “Half Korean, Half Irish” comedian, yep a dime a dozen. Born in Flint, Michigan and later raised in Orange, CA after his family succumbed to the “Great Liquor Store Rush” of the early 80’s. He started comedy with the Orange County Crazies Improv troupe and then moved to L.A. to pursue stand up comedy full time. He has headlined at such venues as the World Famous Improv Comedy Clubs and The Comedy Store. He has appeared on Funny Farm TV and was a premier performer honored on KNBC Channel 4 News in Los Angeles for Asian-American History Month.

McGehee was a finalist in the NBC Laugh Factory Latino/Asian-American Comedy Showcase and in the 2002 “Orange County’s Funniest Person Contest” where he went on to win in 2003. McGehee has also appeared on NBC’s “Last Comic Standing 2” as a finalist.

McGehee has recently appeared on The Joni Lamb Show on DayStar, JCTV, ABC Family Channel (Living the Life), Si TV, Comedy Central, TBN and TLN promoting his brand of innovative Clean Comedy. He recently did warm up comedy at a live taping for Carlos Oscar’s one-hour special to be aired on a Comedy Central that will be released on DVD by Time Warner Video. McGehee has confirmed an unnamed comedy pilot with CBS producers to write as well as appear on the show.

Ron McGehee has made a name for himself as a favorite entertainer in the corporate market with companies such as City of Hope, AB-FAB Motors, Angelus Film Awards (Hollywood), Toyota, Hyundai, Ontario Mills, Kolon International, Hanjin Shipping and many others.

McGehee does not believe in putting all his eggs in one basket. So along with furthering his comedy career he is now a producing co-host of “The Family Comedy Countdown”, a national syndicated radio program. He is also producing his own clean comedy show at top venues throughout the United States.

McGehee starred and co-produced a pilot, along with is comedian wife Kerri Pomarolli, produced by Eastgate Productions (Dog Whisperer). The pilot, www.ilovekerri.tv, demonstrates both McGehee and Pomarolli’s comedic ability to interact as they take on the task of home improvement. As you will see, their complete lack of skills is down right comical.

When time allows the husband and wife team up touring the country performing their unique brand of “He Said, She Said” show where Ron tries to get in the last word.

McGehee is a favorite at national camps and festivals in the youth market such as Spirit West Coast, Life Fest and Knott’s Berry Farm Youth Nights and Youth Specialties Convention. He tours many colleges bringing his life lessons and hilarious multi cultural humor to campuses nationally.

He is a board member of the non-profit organization “Breaking Into Hollywood” helping people get started in the entertainment business. He is also busy as a screenwriter and contributing writer in many magazines including Brio for teens from Focus on the Family, Battle magazine and coming in 2007 the new national magazine Hope For Women. (He likes to show his sensitive side)

Ron is funny, funny, and has a beautiful testimony. He has the ability to connect with any crowd because he is so personable and down to earth. Our ladies loved him. He did our Fashion Show for us on Saturday Night and did a great job. He made our weekend more enjoyable, just being there with us.

Kerri and Ron together are a sight to behold. They compliment each other on all levels, especially spiritually. I would recommend Kerri and Ron for any event that you are planning for your organization, church, etc. You cannot go wrong with Ron and Kerri.

Kerri and Ron were both great!They were fantastic choices for our college InterVarsity Comedy Event in Canada. We look forward to using them both again soon!

Ron was hillarious! The crowd couldn't stop laughing. His testimony of what it is like to live as a Christian in Hollywood was also encouraging. Students are still talking about his performance and his ability to entertain, teach, and captivate the audience!

He was very very funny. At times, he had to pause for 15-40 seconds to let us stop laughing, and in some cases dry the tears of laughter from our eyes.

Ron McGehee was an absolute hit! Not only did he perform (and ENTERTAIN) for a full hour and 15 minutes, but he was clean and hilarious! We had people there of all ages (middle school through elderly) and he had them ALL doubled over with laughter. I would recommend him to anyone, and you can quote me on that!

Along with his great work ethic, Ron knows how to roll with any audience. He is never offensive, but always entertaining. We try to have him back as much as possible.

Ron McGehee brought laughter to a group of 13 to 15 year-old teenagers which blew me and my expectations of comics for this age group far, far away! Not only did he encourage us to laugh, but to also keep Jesus Christ first in their lives in order to succeed.

Thank you so much for blessing us at our annual "Celebration of Life" fundraising banquet. I have had so many compliments about the entertainment. Truly the funnest night we have had in Roswell for some time. Laughter is absolutely good medicine and we were all inoculated. I would highly recommend pregnancy centers to book you for their events. When people are happy they are much more likely to open their wallets! Thank you again and we would love to have you back any time!
