A comedian makes you laugh ....
A humorist makes you Think & Smile.
BobLee is a Humorist     

After 1,000s of his commentaries attracted a national audience, BobLee took his funny stories on the road in 2004.  His funny stories come from decades of jousting with windmills as everyman / executive / entrepreneur. 

   Blended in with the humor are positive survival techniques from a life of socio-corporate misadventures.  Audiences quickly recognize their own world .... "BobLee lived MY life.  He just remembers it funnier than I do."  With no profanity and no partisan politics.

  •   " .... After 20 years in Corporate America, I finally admitted I'm not a team player or a people person and I REALLY don't play well with others. .... uh oh.

BobLee's arenas are the cul-de-sacs & corporate jungle.  His signature presentation Jousting With Windmills recounts his epic pursuit of the bright elusive butterfly of occupational happiness.   Familiar rites of passage that his fellow Boomers have endured. 

  •   " .... No one fact-checks obituaries.  They are like The Ultimate Christmas Letter.  My friends (and especially my enemies) are really going to be surprised to read about my Olympic medals and the time I climbed Mount Everest barefooted."

   With a self-effacing stage persona reminiscent of the late Lewis Grizzard, BobLee's meat & potatos audiences are Chambers of Commerce, Trade Associations and Country Clubs.  In his trademark seersucker suit he shuffles his stories to fit each audiences' demographics. 

  •  " .... Why is cremation so popular these days?  Most men don't have six friends to be their pallbearers. ... ouch.  

    BobLee has written a Book and produced a CD: 

  • Seersucker Suits Me (2008) ...... Twenty of BobLee "Best" from over 1,300 commentaries - Winner The Porcelin Pulitzer for "Best Bathroom Reading in 2008".
  • Braggin' Rites (2003) ..... Commentaries on Sports & the Lunatics that obsess over it. ....  
  • Sacred Cows & Other Roadkill (2007) .....  BobLee narrates eight Golden Oldies out of his early archive of insightful commentaries.... including the alltime #1 - TreeHouses & How Tall Walls

   A BobLee Live show runs from 30-60 minutes as circumstances require. 

   Fees are negotiable. (Duh, everybody says that!).  If its (1) close to home .... (2) close to another show .... (3) a legitimate entree to 100s of other bookings.

"We've enjoyed BobLee for three years in a row.  He's our standard for measuring other speakers ... 'so and so was good, but he wasn't BobLee'. His latest on "Funeral Groupies" is his funniest ever." - Statesville NC Rotary
