ABOUT OUR COMICS:
Headliner: Kris Shaw
Kris is a fan favorite hailing from Las Vegas who tours comedy clubs, colleges and events all across the United States and Canada. He has entertained troops in Iraq, Kuwait, Japan, Korea, Bahrain, Dubai, Kyrgestan and Africa. Kris also appears in national television commercials and had a recurring extra role on the CBS drama Close To Home. Kris can be heard regularly on Kevin Hart’s LOL Network on Sirius Radio.
It may just be a live microphone in a small spotlight, but when Kris steps up to it, the experience is unlike anything you’ve come to expect from standup comedy. He’s a storyteller who, with quick bursts of wit and carefully crafted silences, keeps the audience engaged through everyday observations and tough topics alike. His slightly askew but lovable style disarms and charms from the first set-up to the final punch line. There isn’t so much as a hint of meanness in his spirit, and that good energy spills onto the stage and beyond. You will find yourself laughing out loud, delighted at how easily you relate to this uniquely funny guy.
Feature: Gabby OK
Born and raised in Las Vegas, this Queer and charming storyteller found herself in Minneapolis because she lost a bet. Gabby was a finalist in the House of Comedy’s Funniest Person contest at Mall of America, was named a “Comic to Watch” by Racket MN, and has opened for national headliners such as Rachel Scanlon, Ali Sultan, Kelsey Cook, and Chad Daniels.
Host: Jesse The Shrink
What do you get when you mix a shrink & comedian? This guy! Jesse is a bona fide licensed therapist & standup comic who gives audiences a sneak peek into the inner-workings & often hilarious experiences of a mental health professional. Whether he’s talking about navigating virtual therapy sessions during an apocalypse or just trying to figure out what to tell drunk people he does for a living, one thing’s sure: after hearing his stories you’ll never see therapy (or your therapist) the same again!
Jesse is the producer & host of a number of Twin Cities comedy shows including Jesse The Shrink’s Midlife Crisis Show, the St Paul Comedy All-Stars Show, Friday Night Comedy at Gambit Brewing, & Comedy Night at Station 10. He’s also co-founder of Freshly Squeezed Comedy, creator of the Funniest Person in St Paul & Funniest Headliner contests, & runs a weekly comedy open mic at Gambit Brewing.
Jesse won the 2024 Clear Water Comedy contest at The Plus in Eau Claire, WI, was a 2024 Funniest Person With A Day Job finalist at House of Comedy in Mall of America, & is a regular guest on the Tom Barnard Show.

Kick off your week with some laid-back fun at Gambit every Monday night! We’re rolling it back with classic retro video games and breaking out the board and strategy games for a full evening of friendly competition and good vibes.
🎮 Retro Games:
Relive the golden age of gaming with Nintendo 64, NES, and Wii favorites like Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros.Bring your own games if you’ve got a few gems to share!
🎲 Board & Strategy Games:
Whether you’re into Catan, The Crew, or Potion Explosion, there’s always a game (and a seat) waiting for you. Beginners welcome - someone’s always happy to teach.
Grab a beer, pull up a chair, and meet some fellow gamers. Mondays at Gambit are all about nostalgia, connection, and a little friendly trash talk.

Trivia Mafia is here to host trivia every Sunday at 6pm. Trivia Mafia (aka the world’s best bar trivia) is a bar and brewery trivia operation based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Each session is comprised of 8 rounds, including an image and a sound round, and since we prefer things old-school, we still do pen-and-paper style at Gambit. Plus, the top three winners each week will go home with a prize!
