All Cops Ain’t Bad:
The author, David Reuben, would like to welcome “All Cops Ain’t Bad” to The Comedy Green Room family.
I recently had a zoom chat with Daryll Triplett and Michael Williams two of the great people behind this charitable organization.
Their purpose is to bridge the gap between our cops and the community. We want to show the world that we are “only human”.
They also coordinate and provide support and relief to all current and retired First Responders with an emphasis on “Cops” and “Victims of Police Brutality”.
“All Cop’s Ain’t Bad” bring healing to our communities and their families through comedy, counseling, peer mentoring, individually and in comedy concert settings, filled with lots of laughter and love.
The goal is to raise awareness through community events, media outlets, social media, service organizations and churches, screaming to the top of our voices that… “All Cop’s Ain’t Bad”.

Paul's clean and funny comedy style was a refreshing change to the Toronto Comedy Community from 2004 to 2006.
