“Science needs more people like Brian to engage with the public and show them that it can be a part of their lives - and a very entertaining and thought-provoking part at that.”
Chapin Rodriguez, PhD





“The Rational Comedy for an Irrational Planet performance was one of the most successful public programs that we hosted at the Koshland since opening to the public.”
Amy Shaw, Koshland Science Museum of the National Academy of Sciences

“Malow performs a very important function: He makes science accessible. He pulls information from superspecialized fields and makes it comprehensible to a wider audience.”
The Washington Times

“Malow brings stage-honed stand-up chops to the elucidation of the natural world.”
Express (The Washinton Post)

“Malow's jokes really are for everyone, not just scientists. In fact, because he often performs for audiences with mixed backgrounds in the sciences or no background in the sciences at all, he is happy to assume the role of an on-stage teacher, providing his audiences with just enough scientific background to get the joke.”

“I giggled uncontrollably at the Star Wars jokes, and became an avid supporter of your theory on why some of us are directionally challenged from birth.”
Gina Perovich, EPA





“Your comedy turned what would have been a good event into a really memorable one.”
Eliot Graf, Microsoft

”In addition to be being funny and clean, Brian obviously took the time to do substantial research in order to write material that was specific and appropriate to the event (a hardware and software awards ceremony).”
Andrew Eisenberg, CEO, Handheld Media Group, Inc.

“From his opening joke about the speed of light and the speed of sound, I knew that it would be an enjoyable evening!"
Marisa Burgener, MAT

“This is not your typical stand-up comedy show where's it's just "joke, joke, joke." In fact, it's more like listening to a science fiction writer draw upon the world's current scientific knowledge to synthesize his vision for the future - with several one-liners thrown in for good measure.”

”Brian offers just the right mix of nerd humor and just plain laugh-out-loud funny.  His comic timing is terrific, and he has a great rapport with the audience -- in our case, several hundred journalists who write about science.”
Robin Marantz Henig, National Association of Science Writers

“Even a standard issue riff on his love life relied on a metaphor from particle physics. And, trusting that this was the perfect crowd for his material, Malow pulled out a pun on pasta and "antipasta" that got a roar of laughter.”
Lynne Friedmann, National Association of Science Writers

“Thanks for the opportunity to laugh at infectious disease and not feel guilty.”
Chris Condayan, American Society for Microbiology

“The best way to cap off a couple of days of technical discussions, early wake-up calls and marathon meetings!”
Georges Efstratoudakis, My Virtual Model

I wanted to thank you again for your role in making our inaugural season such a great success.  When it comes to fun, your event was at the top of the list!  I believe I speak for everyone present when I say that we all appreciated the intelligent humor, which was simultaneously G-rated and very, very funny.  After so many serious subjects, it was refreshing to have a good laugh - thank you for that!

Brian displays the type of talent that is rarely found in the comedy world. He is funny without needing to use gross vulgarities, spontaneous on stage, original, gets along well with employers and creates a wonderful rapport with audiences. When I have had occasion to hire Brian, he has been accomodating, punctual, and always has new material. Audiences love his quick wit and different approach to a sometimes boring activity, as well as his ability to laugh at himself when appropriate.
