Break the Bubble

Break the Bubble

Each time Break the Bubble has been to Gambit, we’ve hit 125+ for turnout. So, let’s do it again!

So wait, this is a singles event, right? Or a professional networking thing?

Nope. Break the Bubble is for making friends, pure and simple. You can leave the pick-up lines and elevator speeches at home. Refreshing, isn’t it?

What’s the format?

Show up

Put on a name tag

Introduce yourself to someone new

I heard these events have themes. What’s up with that?

Yep, our events have themes because most of us need a little help kickstarting conversations with people we don’t know. Question to be announced closer to the event… we want to keep you guessing!

Is this just a Millennials thing? Nope! Break the Bubble events are open to anyone over 21.

Friday Night Comedy with Robert Baril

Tickets on sale NOW!!! Get them here!

The popular Friday Night Comedy at Gambit Brewing returns! This month we've got national headliner (and Minnesota's very own) Robert Baril, who has performed in comedy clubs around the country, released four comedy albums, and was featured on Amazon Prime's "I Need You To Kill".

Two of the funniest comedians on the Twin Cities comedy scene, Aidan Thibault and Pege Miller, also join in on the fun plus our own in-house comedian/therapist Jesse The Shrink hosts! See full bios for each comedian below.

Here's what previous audience members are saying about our shows:

"Cool, unique room. Great talent!"

"Great comedy! We'll be back!"

"Love the comedians!"

"So fun! Want more."

"Super fun, comic variety is great, friendly environment!"

"Hilarious!!! A must see!"

"Good flow, headliners were great."

Gambit also serves up fresh, delicious food and drink options. In addition to their assortment of award-winning craft beers, they offer seltzer cocktails, THC selzters, housemade root beer, hop water and N/A beers, plus they bake their own gourmet pizzas (you gotta try the Curd is the Word - pepperoni + cheese curds!). Craft hot dogs and a killer Bavarian pretzel are also on the menu.

Get your tickets now and we'll see you at Gambit! 🎤😂 🍻🍹🍕🌭🥨

ABOUT OUR COMEDIANS:

Robert Baril

Hailed by the Minneapolis Star Tribune as "the sharpest political commentator on the Twin Cities comedy scene", Robert is always mining the news of the day, tackling all the hot button issues to fuel his informed, take-no-prisoners style of comedy. A mainstay of the Minneapolis and St Paul comedy scene for years and regular at Acme Comedy Club, he has released four comedy albums to date: “Sex and Politics(2017), “TMI(2019), “2020(2021), & “Not the Time” (2022). He was also featured in the Amazon Prime documentary “I Need You to Kill”.

Robert has opened for Louie Anderson (RIP), Tim Dillon, Roy Wood Jr., Michelle Wolf, and Chad Daniels.

Aidan Thibault 

Aidan, just 19-years-old & originally from Duluth, moved to the Twin Cities to make his mark on the local comedy scene. And boy did he succeed, becoming the youngest ever winner of the Acme Comedy Club Funniest Person in the Twin Cities contest in 2024!

From reflecting on the realization that he’s Gen Z as opposed to a millennial (“I just learned recently that they’re, like, 40?”) to self-burns about his masculinity (“If someone sees a big guy with tools they’re like, ‘He’s going to fix something.’ If you see me with tools you’re like, ‘Oh he’s bringing those to someone else’”), Aidan leans into observations that manage to connect with the young as well as old-ass millennial members in the audience. Don’t miss your chance to see him!

Pege Miller

Pege started her comedy career at the Honolulu Comedy Club on the island of Oahu, Hawaii & she's been making audiences from Hawaii to the midwest laugh ever since! Known for her high-energy & positive-vibes demeanor, along with a sharp sense of humor that will leave you in stitches, Pege has become a favorite performer at comedy clubs across the Twin Cities & beyond.

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 Jesse The Shrink’s Midlife Crisis Show, the St Paul Comedy All-Stars Show, Friday Night Comedy at Gambit Brewing, St Paul Art Crawl Comedy Night, Therapy & Politics, & the 420 Standup Comedy Show.

He’s also co-founder of Freshly Squeezed Comedy, creator of the Funniest Person in St Paul contest, & runs a weekly comedy open mic at Gambit Brewing. Jesse won the 2024 Clear Water Comedy contestat The Plus in Eau Claire, WI, was a 2024 Funniest Person With A Day Job finalist at House of Comedyin Mall of America, & is a regular guest on the Tom Barnard Podcast.

Stand-Up Comedy Open Mic ft. Mike Brody, John Conroy, & Comrade Tripp

THIS WEEK’S HEADLINERS:

Mike Brody

Starting comedy on a whim at an open mic in the year 2000, Mike has since devoted his life to perfecting the delivery of his high-energy act. Bucking the trend of the apathetic comedian, his genuine passion for his craft draws audience members into the unique world of Mike Brody: an affable, clever guy whose life is often derailed by his own neurotic, obsessive-compulsive and clumsy tendencies.

Brody has spent the last 20+ years touring the U.S. and internationally and hosts the beloved "Only You Would Think That" podcast with fellow comedian Jessi Campbell. He has been featured on the nationally syndicated radio program "The Bob & Tom Show" as well as the "The Dan Patrick Show" podcast. He's recorded two comedy albums , with tracks regularly featured on SirusXM Satellite Radio. Brody can also be seen in his Dry Bar Comedy special "Not Afraid of Butterflies".

Listen to "Only You Would Think That" podcast

Watch Mike's Dry Bar Comedy special

Listen to "Sell Me A Bridge" comedy album

Listen to "That's Not What I Meant" comedy album

Comrade Tripp

Born and raised in Saint Cloud, Minnesota; a city as large as it is small. Comrade Tripp successfully escaped to Minneapolis which is marginally better, where he is a co-producer of Uproar Performing Arts and has been a featured performer of the 10K Laughs Festival.

He has also found another home here on the internet, which is also marginally better than his previous residences. His brand of dark humor has found a place in the ecosystems of the algorithm. 

Despite his despondent disposition, he’s a child at heart; insomuch that he cannot be trusted to take care of himself and has no self esteem whatsoever. The rest of his body is very old.

John Conroy

A D.C. native, John Conroy has devoted himself to making people laugh. Shortly after he relocated to Minnesota, his peers voted him 2008 Best New Comic in the Twin Cities. His sharp and well-crafted material then earned him the title of 2009 Funniest Person in the Twin Cities. In addition, his videos on RooftopComedy.com are Staff and Celeb Picks. 

Now based out of Los Angeles, John’s material is smart, aggressive and uncompromising, which makes him a comedian that you won’t soon forget.

COMICS: Sign up weekly prior to noon on Tuesdays here. There are 10-15 spots available each week.

THIS WEEK’S HEADLINERS:

Trevor Anderson

Trevor is a Wisconsin born, Minneapolis based stand up comedian who has been making a name for himself throughout the Midwest over the past decade. His intelligent and charmingly enthusiastic approach to comedy helps him connect with and entertain any audience. Quick wit and clean, quirky takes on everyday observations and family life make Trevor’s comedy widely accessible, yet completely one of a kind. His debut album “Stay At Home Dude” was released on Ghost Runner Records and has been featured on the Sirius XM channels “Pure Comedy” and “Jeff & Larry’s Comedy Roundup”.

Trevor has worked alongside Pete Lee, Charlie Berens, Chad Daniels, Myq Kaplan and is the house band leader for Mary Mack’s North Star Comedy Hour variety show; he’s performed at the 10,000 Laughs Comedy Festival, SnoJam Comedy Festival and at the Aspen Comedy Festival where he was a winner of the Rooftop Comedy College Competition.  When he’s at home in Minneapolis, Trevor can be seen regularly at the renowned Acme Comedy Company, hosting his long-running Punchline Punchout showcase or sitting on his deck handcrafting what some have called the most unique merch in comedy.

Trevor Wade

A lifetime fan and student of comedy, born and raised in South Minneapolis, Trevor has established himself on the Twin Cities comedy scene as someone not afraid to speak his mind on any subject with a universal and endearing appeal. His material is inspired by his daily life observations and he was recently described as "always fresh and entertaining!"

Influenced by comedy legends like Lenny Bruce, Richard Pryor, George Carlin and Dick Gregory, Trevor has a firm belief that comics can be interesting and have substance when doing stand-up in addition to being funny. "I want to show respect to the people who made it possible for me to have a voice on stage, so with that in mind I try to give the people something to think about when I’m out there."

ABOUT OUR COMEDIANS

Tommy Ryman, a semifinalist on NBC’s Last Comic Standing, is an acclaimed comedian. His oddly-adorable stand-up landed him No. 1 on iTunes comedy charts for his album Party Troll. Named Best of the Midwest at Gilda’s Laugh Fest, Tommy grew up in Minnesota jamming on clarinet for his new-age mom and kale-chip-making dad.

He performs at top clubs, colleges, and festivals across the nation including the Great American Comedy Festival. Tommy was invited to be on Nickelodeon’s NickMom Night Out and has a full comedy special on Dry Bar Comedy. He’s worked alongside Nick Swardson, Hannibal Buress, Maria Bamford and Louie Anderson but none wear a cardigan quite like Tommy. Featured on Paste Magazine and regularly heard on SirusXM and iheartradio, Tommy’s act can be described as absurdist and clever masked behind an endearing, innocent demeanor. A Last Comic Standing judge raved, “I have never seen anything like [Tommy] before in my whole life, [he is] one-of-a-kind, fantastic!”

Wendy Berkowitz

Wendy started performing standup comedy after retiring from the University of Minnesota. She has been featured in a variety of comedy festivals including the Women in Comedy Festival, the Detroit Women of Comedy Festival, the Twin Cities Jewish Festival, and the International Ladies Laugh Comedy Festival. She also performed in the Pride Comedy Show @ Sisyphus Brewing in Minneapolis and has been a judge for the Funniest Person with a Day Job contest at Mall of America's House of Comedy.

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 Jesse The Shrink’s Midlife Crisis Show, the St Paul Comedy All-Stars Show, Friday Night Comedy at Gambit Brewing, St Paul Art Crawl Comedy Night, Therapy & Politics, & the 420 Standup Comedy Show.
