Ben Harkins is a master of the unsweetened perspective. With a deadpan delivery that cuts through the noise, he has become a definitive favorite across the Pacific Northwest. His irreverent material spares no one, attacking everything from the skyrocketing cost of groceries to the inevitable extinction of species.

The accolades speak for themselves: Ben was crowned Helium Comedy Club's Portland’s Funniest Person (2024) and voted #1 in Willamette Week’s Funniest Five (2019). A regular fixture at Helium, he has graced the stages of Bridgetown, SF Sketchfest, and Savage Henry. Ben has shared the spotlight with comedy heavyweights like Kyle Kinane, Beth Stelling, Joe List, and Christopher Titus.
