Comedian Jon Carden has climbed upward from the very bottom of society and has reached, at the very least, the middle. Comedy provided Jon an opportunity to fashion tales of his turbulent upbringing in the backwoods trailers of North Carolina into a craft that has landed him on some of the biggest stages in the country.

In December 2019 Jon Carden was hand-selected by Frank Caliendo to be 98.7 KUPD’s Funniest Comedian and was awarded the opportunity to open for an audience of 3,000 people at Celebrity Theater. Jon was also a finalist for Rick Bronson’s Funniest Comedian and a winner of The Pacific Cannabis Comedy Cup. Jon has featured for Big Jay Oakerson, Chris Porter, Aida Rodriguez, Bryan Callen, Adam Ray, and many more.

Jon Carden is consistently working towards producing the funniest content possible with the projects that he helps facilitate like The Big Pine Comedy Festival, The 40 for 40 Comedy Festival, and his podcast The White Trash Book Club.
