Television
"Leif Skyving is a very funny comic. A consummate pro and a lot of fun to watch onstage."
Eddie Brill: Talent coordinator for the comedians on “The Late Show With David Letterman”.
"I've booked Leif on numerous television shows and he always delivers. He's one of the few comedians I know of that is a consistent crowd pleaser. I continue to receive requests for his next appearance. Funny is funny, and Leif is one of the best."
- Ben Guyatt: Host and Producer of the world's longest running stand-up comedy TV series; Comedy At Club 54
Corporate
“Leif was engaging, smart, and laugh out loud funny. He’s up to date on the latest world events and was able to tailor his show to accommodate our specific group. Leif has obviously paid attention to the finer details of life - including kids, family dynamics and relationships as he had us nodding and rolling on several occasions. Highly recommended!”
Cory Irwin | R&D Project Manager | HP, Inc
"Our company is in a challenging environment and so for our annual meeting, I thought we needed to lighten things up a bit. Leif was introduced as the new company president, and after about five minutes of stunned silence, he had folks howling when they wised up to the stunt. Leif was great to work with and a heck of a good guy.”
--David Lord, President, Pioneer Newspapers Inc.
" We had a great success with Leif Skyving" --Kristen Stickney, Marketing and Events Director, Idaho Association of Counties
Dear Leif,
Just a quick note to say thanks for taking the edge off a long year of contentious litigation. The staff, attorneys, and their families had a wonderful time, and we enjoyed your humor. Your presentation was a great way to loosen things up and bring some levity to the party. Having a comedian (you in particular) entertain at a Christmas party was unique idea, and we would definitely recommend it to others. Hope to see you on stage again soon.
Very truly yours,
--James C. Burnham, Thompson, Ashcraft and Burnham, L.L.P. Attorneys and Counselors at Law
Hi Leif,
Just wanted to drop you a note and let you know how much all of our employees enjoyed your act at our Christmas Party. Several of the employees have come up and said that was the best party we have had in years. Keep up the good work and hopefully we will see you next year.
--Katherine J. Berg, Lanny Berg Chevrolet, Inc.
"This year we were fortunate to have Leif Skyving as our entertainment. Leif absolutely made the night. He was perceptive to what our employees wanted to hear. He brought up topics that not only pertained to everyone's personal life but also to our business and their daily lives at work.
I would recommend Leif to anyone planning any sort of gathering. It is very hard to find entertainment that can appeal to all those attending. Leif was able to accomplish that. Everyone of our employees and their guests had a great time.
Leif is not only a professional comedian but also a professional business man. Every aspect of dealing with Leif, went smooth and without complications or worry. From start to finish, I was completely satisfied with Leif. Sincerely,
-- John Hawthorne, General Manager Teton Wireless Television Inc.
I had the opportunity to invite Leif Skyving to entertain at our Sales and Associates meeting held in Jackpot Nevada. Leif proved to be great entertainment. He kept the audience laughing his entire show. We had invited a varied audience and all came away with the same "Gee he's funny". Wouldn't hesitate to invite him again.
--Rita Bailey, Office Coordinator, J.R. Simplot Company
Finding entertainment for our annual Christmas party has always been a difficult task. With our business, we have a wide range of ages and personalities to cater to. This year we decided to hire a comedian to provide the entertainment.
Leif Skyving was a hilarious comedian that kept our party laughing from start to finish. He tailored his act to accommodate the variety of individuals at the party. Much of his comedy was impromptu, which requires talent to deliver. I would recommend Leif for entertainment at any party or gathering. He definitely made the evening enjoyable for all. Sincerely,
--Donna Bledsoe, Owner, Jim's Heating and Cooling
Dear Leif,
Thank you again for performing at our Christmas party this past season. Your humor and wit are certainly a gift that only a few possess. You are indeed a very funny man!! If you ever need someone to use as a recommendation, or regarding your professionalism or your quality, please don't hesitate to have them call me. Sincerely,
--Alan T. Bermensolo, President, "B" Transfer, Inc.
To Whom it May concern:
Leif Skyving spoke at the Caldwell Board of Realtors Christmas Installation Banquet and was a tremendous success! We asked him to stay clear of profanity and allowed him complete artistic freedom and he performed most excellently. It really broke the ice on a highly competitive group and turned a usually boring stuffed shirt affair into a delightfully candid funny evening. Worth every penny! Sincerely,
--Jeffrey S. Jensen, Chairman of Banquet Realtor, GRI, CRS
I recently had the pleasure of retaining Mr. Leif Skyving, Sweden's funniest (and probably only) export, for a company party. After an exhaustive search of the Boise area, we stumbled upon Leif performing at the Funny Bone. He had our group in stitches for the entire routine. We selected Leif to entertain at our company party because of his ability to get a laugh without reaching in the gutter. As is the mark of true comedic talent, Leif performed much of his routine ad lib. Impromptu comedy, tailored to the interests of the group being served, makes the night even more special. We hope to use Leif again for future company functions. I recommend you do the same. Sincerely,
--Bob Stein, Store Manager, Shopko Stores Inc.
