Ben Katzner headlines The Pit Comedy Club

About this event

The Pit Comedy Club is a pop-up comedy club that showcases the funniest nationally touring and local comedians we can find every Thursday night in the back of Flyway Brewing.

This Thursday, we're lucky to have Ben Katzner (Sirius XM) in from Minneapolis to close out our show.

About Ben:

A stand-up comedian and writer who was adopted at a young age, raised in Minnesota and cut his teeth in New York City, Ben Katzner's unique background leads to a one-of-kind live show on stage.

One of comedy's best kept secrets, Ben charms audiences with subversive jokes, biting observational humor and skilled story telling, all from a relatable point of view.

Katzner regularly opens for comedian Kelsey Cook and has opened for a variety of performers including Josh Johnson, Geoffrey Asmus and Chad Daniels.

In 2025, Ben released his debut comedy album via Blonde Medicine's label, and a coinciding comedy special on Youtube. The project, "Supple Harlot" received rave reviews and plays regularly on Sirius XM.

Katzner is also a published author. His debut graphic novel, "Hello, My Name is Poop" was published by Wonderbound books in 2021. His second graphic novel, Muddy Waters Too (co-written with legendary rapper Redman), was published in 2025.

Ben also has really great calves. Seriously. It's nuts.
