Kalamazoo Game Show Experience

10/10/2026

About 4 weeks ago I received an inquire that is probably my favorite to date 🤩

A very sweet husband reached out to request a private event so that I could "rig" the final results in favor of his wonderful wife. He needed it rigged, because he had booked a vacation to New Orleans for her birthday and wanted to surprise her in a way she would truly NEVER expect! I think he most definitely succeeded 😎😂

Happy Birthday, Annabelle, I hope you have an AMAZING time on your trip! And thank you so much, Bob, for choosing us to help facilitate your surprise; her reaction was truly priceless and I'm delighted I was there to see it 😁

We had an amazingggg time hosting at the Sturges-Young Center for the Arts tonight!!

These folks know how to take a good heckling but also... someone needs to refer What's Cookin' Milton to Sony because WHAT THE HECK!? 😂

Thank you all so much for playing with us, you were an absolute hoot!

Today was 2 hours of nonstop game show fun with some beautiful folks from Jayco!

They broke the record for the highest number of times 10,000 points was hit on Plinko in a single game. 6 TEAMS hit it with one of them hitting it TWICE 🤯 They started to ask if it had a magnet, to which I assured them it doesn't, they are just one super lucky bunch 😂

Thank you all so much for having a great time aith me today!

🎙 TALENT SEARCH! 🎙

Specifically, I need a couple of people who are funny, loud, charismatic, dependable, and capable of being left unsupervised.

This is a part-time host position, with the opportunity to basically become seasonally full-time if desired when we get (gratefully) body-slammed by corporate events in December and January!

This is honestly a GREAT gig for a college student, performer, gig worker, or theater kid who never grew out of it 😉

Pay STARTS at $20/hour and can go up depending on experience. AND because I love a good incentive: you’ll make an extra 10% commission on every private party you personally bring in (our private parties start at $400 for a one hour show).

Here’s the catch: I need you to actually show up. Reliably. This job is incredibly fun, but I need people I can trust to walk into the building, figure out what needs to happen, host the hell out of a room, juggle multiple cohesive things at once, and not need me standing behind them telling them what to do.

You MUST have evening and weekend availability, be organized, able to multitask, and comfortable working without direct oversight. You also need to be comfortable on a microphone in front of a room full of strangers. If the thought of commanding the attention of anywhere from 10-300+ mildly tipsy accountants terrifies you... this may not be your calling.

If that sounds like your Super Bowl, PLEASE proceed!!

You do NOT need professional hosting experience. I can teach you how to run the games. That said, I cannot teach you how to have a personality.... well, maybe I can.... but I don't have that kind of time.

It has been yet another amazing week full of shenanigans! It is always such a blast hosting groups from Southwest Michigan First/Southwest Michigan First Chamber, Allegan County Health Department, and Portage Public Schools. Thank all so much to everyone who came to play and conquer (or not conquer.... you're appreciated too 😉)!!

Some serious fun has been had this last week and a half! I am loving this new Risk the Case side quest we added to our mash-ups, it has added such a great twist that can truly change the whole game at the end of every round 😆

Thank you all for being such amazing contestants!!! I say it all the time but I truly mean it, we have the BEST customers 😍
