About Us

Funny Business Agency

Family-Owned. Client-First. Comedy and Entertainment Experts.

At Funny Business Agency, we believe laughter brings people together — and that unforgettable events start with the right entertainment.

For more than 40 years, our family has helped clients nationwide create standout experiences with the best comedians, entertainers, and speakers. What started as founder John Yoder’s local passion project has grown into one of America’s most trusted entertainment booking agencies — now led by his sons, along with longtime team members Alicia and Greg.

Thousands of Events. One Goal: Make It Memorable.

We’ve booked entertainment for global brands like LinkedIn, Google, Salesforce, Microsoft, and Chrysler, and supported nonprofits like Big Brothers Big Sisters, St. Jude’s, and Gilda’s Club.

We’re proud to be the official entertainment partner for Gilda’s LaughFest, one of the country’s premier comedy festivals, and we’re constantly exploring exciting new ventures, including innovative projects like the Soapstone Comedy Club in the Metaverse.

Our core values never change: Earn trust, deliver excellence, and always put the client first.
