She was a semifinalist in Goodnights’ NC’s Funniest competition and has performed with Don’t Tell Comedy and the NC Comedy Festival.

Nathaniel also produces Don't Tell: Tri-Cities (2024) and the Mind Over Mic Podcast (2025). HEADLINER: Brian McGuinness has been making audiences laugh around the country since 2004. A veteran of the NYC comedy scene for over 18 years, he and his family recently made the move down to Raleigh, NC for a new and exciting life (plus his wife wanted a house).Brian has been seen on the hit TV shows Inside Amy Schumer and The Jim Gaffigan Show. As a professional voice actor for the last 16+ years as well, you've probably heard his voice in dozens and dozens of TV and radio commercials (he's that lovable Robitussin Bear that wants to root through your trash). He's also the host of his long running comedy/video game podcast, Playable Characters Podcast, where he's been interviewing video game characters for over 200 episodes. Now over 20 year

Bourbon and Belly Laughs is an outdoor stand-up comedy show featuring regional comedians at a working Durham distillery. Hosted by Raleigh-based comedian Maya Wells, the evening showcases a lineup of regional talent, including feature act Nathaniel Booher, performing live on the farm grounds. This is a strict 21-and-over event, making it an ideal choice for a parents' night out rather than a kid-friendly outing. Tickets cost $15 per person, and doors open at 6:00 PM, one hour before the 7:00 PM showtime. The distillery offers on-site parking, and guests can purchase craft cocktails made with spirits distilled right on the property. Heading to the distillery offers a casual, open-air alternative to crowded downtown comedy clubs. It is a straightforward way to secure some adult conversation, enjoy local comedy, and support Triangle performers without a massive price tag.
