Click below for a sampling of Bob Stromberg's Comedic videos. They are very often hilarious, occasionally moving, sometimes provocative and, of course, all clean. This sampling changes regularly so you'll always see not only professionally shot and edited pieces but also those when someone pressed 'rec video' and held a cell phone in the air. The videos were recorded at family performances, educational gatherings, corporate business meetings, Christian churches and conferences, in studios, on television shows and anywhere else that Bob does his work. Please feel free to pass the links along. Enjoy!

• My Family Slide Show

  The idea of a comic slide show rattled around in Bob's head for over twenty years. Then his father sent him twenty carousels of family slides from the 60s and 70s. There were one hundred slides per carousel spanning twenty years of Bob's boyhood. That's two thousand slides… in no particular order. Within a few months "My Family Slide Show" was born. This has become one of Bob's most requested pieces.

   

• Cousin Helen

  In this short clip, shot at Thrive 2007, Bob uses his improvisational skills to introduce the keynote speaker Helen Musick. In the process he created a character that returned to the stage at Thrive 2008 and 2009. Bob thinks that getting laughs from sticking fake teeth in his mouth might be a bit too easy but don't tell that to this audience.

• My Fifty-Year Checkup

  Bob's material is always squeaky clean which is remarkable when you consider this piece is about a colonoscopy. How does one talk about the subject and avoid scatological humor? Take a look at this video and see for yourself. This performance was recorded in 2011 at Bayside Church, Granite Bay, CA.

• Bob Does the Head Thing

  It's funny how long some comedy bits last. Bob has been performing his "head thing" for over thirty years. He learned the skill called "a head isolation" at Celebration Mime Theater where he and his fellow students practiced it as an exercise. He then created a bit of his own never imagining that he would be performing it on stage decades later. But here it is and it's funny. This was performed at Thrive in 2008.

• Mr. Wonder Boy

  This is the introductory video that opens Bob's one-man theatrical production Mr. Wonderboy. It's unlike anything else he does though some will recognize the teeth originally used in the Cousin Helen clip. Bob wanted to introduce an absurd super hero like story that was very funny and went for big audience laughter, but also had an honesty and a sweetness. Michael Pearce Donley helps Bob pull it off with his artful musical score. Bob is directed here by Risa Brainin. The video was shot outside Sacramento, CA and edited by Nancy Heath.

• Shadow Puppets On The Graham Norton Show

  Bob got the call from his agent and wasn't sure if he wanted to say yes. In Bob's words: "I'd lived in London for a couple months when Triple Espresso was playing in The West End. So I knew Graham's show. He's a talented guy but his style of humor is about as far from my clean comedy as you can get. Still, I thought maybe I could shine some light." So he did and it was a great experience that led to many other opportunities. This video has been taken down a few times but keeps reappearing and has hit six digits several times on You Tube.
