Bio

“…[Ken's life] makes for some prime comedic fodder that pops up in Pringle’s act.” – Calgary Fast Forward Weekly

“You write the kind of jokes I wish I could write.” – Joey Medina, The Latin Kings of Comedy

“I don’t find him funny, personally – but other people seem to think he’s hilarious.” – Ken’s Mom (Yes, she really said this… to one of my audience members! – Ken)

“High-energy”… “Hilarious”… and, most often, “So true!” – these are some of the most common terms fans have used again and again to describe Ken’s popular and personal brand of stand-up comedy. A hit among both blue-collar and white-collar fans alike, Ken is a proud member of what he describes as the “Lost Boys” – those awkward-but-loveable men who never seem to fully grow up. A man-child and a geek, Ken’s comedy is absolutely littered with acerbic wit and memorable pop culture references; like so many of his outcast Gen-X brethren, Ken’s brand of humor makes it painfully and hilariously apparent that he’s far more comfortable learning video game codes and movie quotes than attempting to understand anything about the mysteries of the opposite sex. Men laugh because his ranting, impotent frustration is imminently relateable… and women love him because they recognize his self-deprecating male humor for absolute truth.

They just don’t love him… you know, “in that way”.

An oft-requested crowd-pleaser at clubs around the country, Ken’s comedy has also found a home in Hollywood and on the web. A young television veteran, Ken has appeared on multiple shows, including MTV‘s Yo Momma, Spike TV‘s I Hate My Job and TLC‘s Fakin’ It. In late 2009, New Wave Dynamics released Ken’s debut comedy album Got Game, where it has become a popular download on iTunes. 2010 has been a particularly notable year – to help promote the double-platinum-selling album Recovery, Ken both co-wrote AND appeared in rapper Eminem‘s “EmWow” video alongside “ShamWow” pitchman Vince Offer; the spot premiered during the NBA Finals on NBC and quickly became one of the hottest viral videos of the year. Flush from that success, Ken was soon tapped to co-write the upcoming movie Underground Comedy 2010, scheduled to release in theaters later this year; Ken also has a memorable cameo in the film, where he appears opposite celebrity actress Lindsay Lohan.

Even his busy Tinseltown schedule hasn’t diverted Ken from the other venue where he has found large-scale success since 2002 - the Internet, where Ken is acclaimed as the founder of the popular comedy website ChuckleMonkey.com, which attracts over 30,000 industry readers a month. “Being an Internet celebrity is kinda like being King of the Morlocks,” Ken jokes, “It’s sort of cool… but not in any way that will ever get you laid.”
