Mike Trainor - Homepage
Mike Trainor, originally of West Orange, New Jersey was always a lifelong fan of comedy. Now he’s doing it: in print, on stage and on the air.

First taking the stage as a comic in the summer of 2003, Trainor began to make the rounds in the city’s underground scene and it wasn’t long till he was hitting the premier stages in town.

Mike’s standup was even featured in an issue of Maxim Magazine. It was a spot that led to writing for CNN's Glen Beck as well as upsetting his mom.

For two years Mike co-hosted and produced “Four Quotas” for Sirius Satellite Radio. As fun as it was sitting down with comics from Jim Gaffigan to Carrot Top Trainor decided to leave the show in the summer of 06, coincidently at the exact moment the show was canceled.

Mike has also been featured in Sports Illustrated, the New York Underground Comedy Festival and multiple radio stations across the country.

Today, after leaving behind a full-time job working in local news Trainor is taking the comedy world by storm. He plays clubs, colleges, fundraisers and everything in between with the same mantra he has held since first taking the stage: don't hold anything back.

Mike lives in Astoria, Queens where he spends his free time sitting, eating and writing about his many accomplishments in the third person.
