Karl Spaeth is a comedian from Cincinnati, Ohio. He was born in 1984 mere hours after his parents saw Rhinestone Cowboy in the movie theater (two of five people in the world that did that). He has performed his dark and silly brand of standup comedy all over the country at comedy clubs, bars, houses, and even a couple of anime conventions for some reason. He is the founder of MOTRmouth—the longest-running independent comedy showcase in Ohio—and a founding member of the sketch comedy group, Future Science.
