The Bonkerz Seal of Approval
Google defines Seal of Approval as a status or a recognition given to a product, service, or concept that meets certain criteria created by an organization or person.
The Bonkerz Seal of Approval is required before any comic can work for Bonkerz. These requirements include a commitment to professionalism, as well as providing a great experience for the audience. Bonkerz’ comics are given an itinerary for each venue that outlines show times, content requirements, contact information, lodging details and even a minimum time frame they must appear at the venue before the show.
Bonkerz’ comics typically work multiple Bonkerz venues every year. Some of our headlining comedians work as much as half of their calendar year just working for us. Their actions at each of our venues relates to their employment at all of our venues. Doing a good job in one location is how they earn the opportunity to work all of our locations. The converse is also true, so you can rest assured that the Bonkerz Seal of Approval is not easily earned and something that comics must maintain in order to perform at any and all Bonkerz locations.

Scott Long
Scott Long moved to Chicago after college, but for the past 2 decades the state of Indiana has been his home. Scott’s Dad was born in Detroit, his Mom lives in Oklahoma, and his Grandparents are from Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, and Kentucky. Is it any wonder he’s considered the Best Comedian at connecting with Middle of the Country audiences? Scott proves you can perform at the nation’s top comedy clubs and write for Network TV shows–all while being based in the Midwest. For the past 13 years he’s written the comedy sketches for the amazingly talented Frank Caliendo at the NFL on FOX and ESPN Countdown pregame shows. Scott has also written a book of comedic essays entitled Dysfunctional Thoughts of a 21st Century Man, plus released 2 comedy CD’s and 2 comedy DVD’s.
Scott’s Latest Comedy Special…Fly Over Comedy…will appeared on Amazon Prime and VidAngel in the Summer of 2018!
He was voted BEST Comedian of 2014 and 2015 and 2016 and 2017 by Gigmasters!
His comedy CD Good Dad, Not a Great Dad has gotten rave reviews and has been heard on Satellite Radio, Pandora, Spotify, and iTunes.
Scott has done shows for Fortune 500 companies and the Not So Fortunate Rest of US :)
He has received tons of top reviews by different media sources. Here is one from the Indianapolis Star:
“Scott Long tosses out sharp and clever lines that remind you of the differences between funny people and true comedic artists.” –Indy Star
What he’s proudest to say is that he has accomplished these things during his comedy career-while always living in the Middle of the Country…so If you want to hire some LA comic who talks about earthquake and traffic jams or a NYC comedian who discusses subway rides and how their 1 bedroom apartment costs $3000 a month, be my guest. He’s not your comedian.
BUT if you want to hire someone who knows what it’s like to grow up in a small-town, move to some Midwest cities after college, only to wind up in a suburb – Then Scott is perfect for you!
Holiday Parties, Fundraisers, Community Events, Roasts, Birthday Parties, Proms…you name it, he’s done it. Scott prides hisself on his versatility. He will succeed at all events he’s hired at because of his preparation and the 25 years of experience he has–PLUS Scotts known for his top-rate improvisational skills, which makes each show he does unique. Scott feels like he’s part of a comedy troupe and his audience is the co-stars!
Scott is confident that you cannot find a comedian with a better mix of TV credits, 5-star reviews, and the ability to connect to a Middle of the country audience.
Ultimately though, to back up my lofty claim of Top Corporate Comedian in Fly Over Country, Scott points to his client roster. Check out the reviews. From Fortune 500 companies like State Farm, John Deere, and GE to family celebrations, Scott’s clients quotes tell the story of what he brings to each performance better than Scott could ever do.
