Please stop by and visit the Laughs for Life profile. In addition to sharing the universal language of laughter with you, we're dedicated to fighting cancer one laugh at a time. And YOU can help us with this mission!!

Vicki Blankenship produced FOUR music compilation CDs, which are available by going to the Indie Music for Life profile. She is dedicated to fighting cancer one song at a time, with the ultimate goal of implementing music therapy programs for children with this disease.

We're also partnering with a fantastic cause close to home, the Sophia's Hope Benefit Concert that will raise money for a trust fund for an adorable little girl who has a rare brain tumor. The poster for this event is on the profile. Even if you cannot attend this event, you can help!

For every Shelly Ryan: Seriously Weird CD sold now through November 10 (the date of the concert), I will donate 50% of the proceeds to Sophia's trust fund!! That's one month to experience some retro comedy that will leave you laughing happily ever after!

Love and laughs,
Shelly

P.S. You can also click on the poster and purchase the CD from my comedy profile!

Sophia's Hope Benefit Concert

I posted a gig and if you're in the North Georgia area PLEASE plan to attend!I'll be sharing the stage with High Tech Redneck Comedian Wes Duncan and some awesome bands at the Sophia's Hope Benefit Concert on November 10 from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m. at the Brenau University Amphitheatre. Proceeds from this family event will go to help a sweet 3 year old girl with a rare form of brain cancer.

Shelly Ryan Late Night!

JOIN ME FOR AN HOUR OF COMEDY, MUSIC AND MORE...ALL FOR A FANTASTIC CAUSE!!

The weekend of September 8th & 9th I’ll be making a road trip to Ridgeway, VA to share some comedy love at the Festival for Change, a weekend dedicated to fighting cancer and family violence.

A lot of people are on the team making all of this happen, and I’m honored to have one of them as my guest on the show this week. Carl Zeigler designed the Laughs for Life Logo AND will be filming a documentary at the Festival. We’ll also enjoy a couple of songs from Indie Music for Life founder Vicki Blankenship.

Shelly Ryan Late Night!

If you're looking for a good time this week, look no farther than your computer. After a short hiatus, Shelly Ryan Late Night is back with an hour of comedy, music and more...and a VERY special guest will join me this week.

I invite you to check out Boneless Chuck in my Top Friends. Okay, so I've never interviewed a pink beanbag dude before. What can I say besides the fact he is AWESOME!!! He has touched many lives, and his story will warm your heart.

Jim Panzee & Friends Cartoon

I'm delighted to share another production from Happy Fatties and comedy friend Michael Scott. He's appeared on Shelly Ryan Late Night and Red Brick Cabaret, and we're bringing him back again with the Jim Panzee and Friends Radio Funtime Hour. Don't touch that dial! Why not? Because we said so!

With the release of Happy Fatties' second album approaching, a new cartoon based off material from the CD has been released. Just click on the image above to go to the site and when there, click on the cartoon's link on the upper left corner. Hope you enjoy it as much as you have the others. And if you don’t, look deep inside your soul to find why you are such a miserable person.
