Raymond the Amish Comic has been performing stand-up for the past thirty-two years. He’s currently writing a book about the adventures of his career, including stories about Sam Kinison, George Carlin, and a show in the Poconos that was interrupted by a bear.

Raymond The Amish Comic was a regular guest on the WZZO Morning show with the Bearman and Keith – 95.1FM in the Lehigh Valley for over a quarter of a century and that’s more than a chapter in his eventual book. He’s been on the Miserable Men Show on Howard 101 and Opie and Anthony on Sirius Satellite as well as their comedy radio channel. Raymond has developed a cult-like following selling out small theatre’s, fire halls, comedy clubs, fundraising events.

Raymond The Amish Comic was part of the workshop production of Sony Entertainment’s recreation of The Gong Show Live, and was buzzed off Season Five of America’s Got Talent in an unprecedented five seconds. He’s appeared on MTV’s 7-Up and out, Comedy Central, and a handful of television commercials. He plays skeptical Amishmen #87 in the Tim Allen film “For Richer For Poorer.” and received $25 extra dollars a day during filming for having his own beard. He has appeared live on stage with Ian Anderson as part of the “Rubbing Elbows with Ian Anderson tour.”

He’s streamed live from his living room throughout the entire pandemic. You can catch all the replays on his patreon @amishcomic. There is now officially one Amishcomic on TikTok.
