About Chris Riggins

Chris RigginsChris Riggins was the winner of the 2022 San Francisco Comedy Competition. His comedy comes from a very sincere place. A native of Berkeley, California, his comedy comes second to his intellect, and his ability to comment on the world around him.

To see Chris perform is to see a window into the reality of American culture, both comic and tragic.

While Chris has many credits to his name, including opening for legends like Dave Chappelle, his true appeal is in his brutally honest comedy, which will force you to think while laughing.

Host: Dauood Naimyar

Dauood was the host of the first round of the 2023 Competition. Now is your chance to see more of him in action.

Afghan-American comedian Dauood Mohammad Naimyar learned the value of assimilating at a very young age. Because of this, he tried his best to not be different but failed at every encounter. Once he embraced his eccentric point of view, he saw the humor all around him. Dauood’s comedic perspective is shaped by the duality of his constant need to fit in and his relentless desire to be different. His search for being relatable yet unique has brought audiences joy for nine years—and will probably continue until he finally figures himself out. Dauood has built a following of 150,000+ TikTok followers by showing the humor of his circumstances as an Afghan living in America, with multiple viral hits poking fun at politicians and world leaders. Dauood’s debut comedy album, Pier 69: Junior Varsity, topped all the charts upon its release.
