Freshly Squeezed Comedy is the high-energy, wacky standup duo of Lefty Crumpet & Jesse The Shrink. They book, produce, and perform in their own shows throughout the state of Minnesota. Lefty brings his silly songs & Jesse brings his unique perspectives as a licensed therapist (yes he really is a shrink & yes, that probably means he’s analyzing you).

Joining them for this very special show at Back Shed Brewing in Waite Park will be Twin Cities favorites Zach Ashton (Acme Comedy Club’s Funniest Person In The Twin Cities finalist) & Shyloh Blake (House of Comedy’s Funniest Person With A Day Job finalist & performer at the 10,000 Lakes Festival & Sno Jam Comedy Festival).
Get your tickets now & join us for a night of comedy you will never forget!

ABOUT OUR COMEDIANS
Zach Ashton
Zach is a comic who cut his teeth at his home club Goonie’s Comedy Club in Rochester, Minnesota before moving to Minneapolis. Since then he has taken his jokes and high-energy style all the way to the finals of several comedy contests including Acme Comedy Club’s Funniest Person in the Twin Cities contest. We don’t know if he IS the messiah or not, but we do know he’s hilarious.

Shyloh Blake
Shyloh is a Minneapolis-based standup comedian who tells funny stories about navigating life’s awkward moments. Which for her are most moments. She was highlighted in the “Next Up On Stage” series on MNComedy.com which noted, “Her quick wit and warm delivery made Blake an instant hit, and after just a few short months she was being booked for shows.”
Blake was selected for the 2023 10,000 Laughs Festival in Minneapolis, MN, appeared in the 2023 Sno Jam Comedy Festival in Sioux Falls, SD, and was a finalist in the 2022 “Funniest Person With a Day Job” contest at Rick Bronson’s House of Comedy at the Mall of America. She has been interviewed by MPR News with Angela Davis, the TV show Twin Cities Live, KFAI Radio, and Voyage Minnesota magazine. Locally, she hosts “Stand-Up Saloon” at The Saloon in Minneapolis. She performs around the Twin Cities at local comedy clubs and on the road.

Jesse The Shrink
What do you get when you cross a shrink & a standup comedian? This guy!
Jesse is a bona fide licensed therapist as well as the producer & host of Jesse The Shrink’s Midlife Crisis Show & The St Paul Comedy All-Stars Show. He was also a finalist in the 2023 Funniest Person With A Day Job contest at Rick Bronson’s House of Comedy, has been a guest on the KQRS Morning Show & Tom Barnard Podcast, & is a co-founder of Freshly Squeezed Comedy.
Jesse gives audiences a sneak peek into the inner-workings and often hilarious experiences of a mental health professional. Whether he’s talking about the horrors of doing online therapy during the apocalypse or just trying to figure out what to tell drunk people he does for a living, one thing’s for sure: after hearing Jesse’s stories you’ll never see therapy (or your therapist) the same again!

Lefty Crumpet
Lefty is a 25-year-old, Minneapolis-based, ethnically-ambiguous, joke-slinging, musical funnyman with social anxiety from Riverside, California. He started doing standup comedy in college & immediately fell in love with the stage. His love of playing music led him to begin incorporating comedy songs into his standup performances. He lifts your hearts and minds with absurd and hilarious jokes and tunes, about various topics ranging from relationships to Doordash.
Lefty was a finalist in the Funniest Person With a Day Job contest at Rick Bronson’s House of Comedy at the Mall of America & is a co-founder of Freshly Squeezed Comedy. You can find him bringing joy and confusion to crowds all over the Midwest.
