Meet Tim Harmston:

Tim Harmston delivers a unique brand of stand-up comedy, deeply rooted in his Midwest origins. His performances are a thoughtful blend of observational humor and delightful absurdity, reflecting a sensibility shaped by his upbringing in Northwest Wisconsin.  Harmston‘s comedic approach is both intelligent and accessible, often exploring the nuances of daily life, relationships, and the quirks of human behavior with a distinctive, understated charm.

His career includes notable television appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman, Comedy Central’s Live at Gotham, and NBC’s Last Comic Standing. He further showcased his comedic prowess with his Dry Bar Comedy special, “Zoom Out.” A consistent voice on Wisconsin Public Radio’s “Big River Radio Wave,” Harmston has also released several successful comedy albums with his latest title “Frozen Badger” debuting at number one on the Apple Music comedy charts. Since starting his stand-up journey in 2002, Tim Harmston has cultivated a reputation for his original material and engaging stage presence, earning him a dedicated following across the country.

Meet Max Garland: Max Garland is the author of The Word We Used for It, winner of the 2017-18 Brittingham Poetry Prize. Other books include The Postal Confessions, winner of the Juniper Prize for Poetry, and Hunger Wide as Heaven, which won the Cleveland State Poetry Center Open Competition, and a chapbook, Apparition, from the University of Wisconsin Press. His poems, essays, stories, and interviews have appeared in journals such as Poetry, New England Review, Gettysburg Review and many other journals, anthologies, and newspapers, and his poetry has been regularly featured on Wisconsin Public Radio. Garland is a graduate of Western Kentucky University and the Iowa Writer’s Workshop, and a former Jay C. and Ruth Halls Poetry Fellow at the University of Wisconsin Institute for Creative Writing.

Born and raised in western Kentucky, Garland worked for nearly a decade as a rural letter carrier on the route where he was born, where his parents and grandparents lived, and the route his grandfather once delivered, an experience that laid the foundation for his first book of poems, The Postal Confessions.
