–Katie Adams and Julie Brown, RAMS Conference, McDonald’s USA, LLC
“If you want an engaging, fun, and ‘awesome to work with’ speaker who will have your attendees laughing, enthralled and telling you that you knocked it out of the park, hire Jason. His artwork adds a lot of levity and creativity and his delivery is engaging and real.”
–Andrea Hopkins Holovach, Director of Governance and Business Process Improvement, The International Society of Automation

There was an abundance of laughter, a few bittersweet tears, and many heads nodding in understanding. People left with practical key takeaways to apply to their everyday lives and the way they live them.”
–Suzanne Jones, COO, Association of Energy Services Professionals
“The thinking that goes into Jason’s work— his art, his words, his imagination—is touching at a level that most people hoping to make a positive difference in the world only dream about.”
–Matthew Gartland, COO and CFO at Flynndustries
“Jason’s program was not simply a feel good fluffy presentation. He literally introduced a new way of viewing things – that looking at life and its challenges through a more positive lens and not always from our skeptical ‘adult’ perspective can make you see things for what they are. It allows us to be more proactive rather than reactive, which is a better approach. It was just what we needed!.” –Jamey M. Whitney, Executive Director, Upper Des Moines Opportunity, Inc.
“Jason was engaging, funny and very authentic. Sometimes speakers can be too cheesy or force feed their style of ‘funny’ to the crowd. Jason was genuine, and genuinely funny. I enjoyed his stories and the visuals were wonderful. He nailed home the message I’ve been trying to get out to staff about innovation. I liked how he proved that everyone can be creative and tied in life/work life lessons. Jason’s humor hits the points home for people making the message more memorable. I’d highly recommend Jason without reserve!”
–Sara Carrizal, Office & Design Services Administrator, Monona Terrace Community and Convention Center
“Excellent. Relevant. Inspiring. Jason is a fantastic speaker delivering important messages in a fun way. He makes you think and realize the important things in life. Jason has a great gift as a story teller; weaving in fun with meaningful messages.”
–Carrie Jensen, Event Manager, League of Wisconsin Municipalities
“Jason’s program was very well done! I enjoyed it all! It’s a relevant message delivered in an entertaining and creative way through humor and art. Many of the agents in the room gave verbal feedback to me following the session about how they ‘needed to hear that right now.’ I’ve also heard some agents referencing stories or ideas Jason shared with us. The Adultitis epidemic is very real and rears it’s head all too often.”
–David Jensen, Sales Leader, State Farm Insurance
“Jason’s program was one of the most well-received presentations we’ve ever had. Our group loved him and have even asked to have him back. He was well received and we appreciate his demeanor – not overbearing, connected with the audience well, and approachable! We liked how he used his artwork and creativity to engage the audience. The exercises were all thought provoking and definitely presented a great message.”
–Jody Hammond, Director of Membership Services, West Virginia Health Care Association
“If you want an engaging, fun, and ‘awesome to work with’ speaker who will have your attendees laughing, enthralled and telling you that you knocked it out of the park, hire Jason. He set a positive tone for the conference which we really needed. We really enjoyed his artwork that went along with his stories, it added a lot of levity and creativity.”
–Danaca Jordan, Conference Chair & Andrea Hopkins Holovach, Director of Business Process Improvement, International Society of Automation
“I’ve seen my share of ‘motivational’ speakers that I thought were quite good. In my opinion, Jason blew them out of the water! We had nothing but positive feedback from our entire group. I like how he presented himself as a real life, everyday person. The tips and tricks he gave to help put some silliness back in your adult life were so simple and achievable. It was fantastic!”
–Tori Smits, Titletown Study Club
“Jason spoke at our annual conference four years ago and he set a standard that we have not yet been able to match. We don’t bring too many speakers back for encore presentations, but we would for Jason.”
–Charles E. Venske, 9-1-1 Communications Conference, MN APCO, MN NENA, MN Sheriff’s Assn.

–Jody Weisse, Care Manager Healthcare Conference
“It was a ‘bullseye!’ Jason was able to take the information we provided him about our organization (all the acronyms!) and other nuisances and run! The audience really honed in on this and found it very up-lifting and engaging. It was the perfect end to our week of training. Jason is not only extremely professional to deal with but overall engaging, energetic and fun. He takes a serious topic and makes fun/light of this so we all realize that taking ourselves too seriously can be dangerous.”
–Deborah Enright, Program Coordinator, Navy Child & Youth Programs
“Thank you so much for all of your hard work in tailoring a presentation for our Widget team! From the emails, calls, discussions and even filming it was a pleasure to work with the both of you. The team LOVED your presentation and we all took so much from it. Thanks for being our ‘Professional Reminderer.’ You did an amazing job of reminding us we are artists and can be more – and during your presentation I teared up a few times and was inspired to be more.”
–Michael C. Leone, Staff Training & Development Manager, Widget Financial

–Fred Soykan, HR Director, McDonald’s USA, LLC, New York Metro Region
“It was great to work with you and Jason. You both were very easy going and go with the flow type people which I really appreciate. Often times when I work with speakers they are very demanding. Everyone loved Jason’s presentation! There were many things that he said that I found myself thinking that I need to have a little more fun! Jason did a great job of keeping the audience engaged in his presentation. I appreciated the interaction with the audience. The humor that Jason finds in every day life is great. Everyone also loved the examples of games to play, especially the soap opera game. I personally loved the story about his child being born and spending time with her. It really resonated that life goes by faster than you think and cherishing those moments are key. Thank you!”
—Erin Barnett, Director of Programs, Concerns of Police Survivors National Conference
“THANK YOU! I am eternally grateful for all that you did to make today a success! The feedback has been positive – and I do mean POSITIVE! I have heard from people that it was the best meeting Bunbury has put on. One of the less emotional and stern people in the company REALLY enjoyed it (WOW!).”
–Jody Ramsfield, Bunbury & Associates Realtors
“EXCELLENT!!!! He had everyone laughing during the entire presentation…loved all your family pictures and videos!! On a scale of 1 – 3 with 3 being the best, he received all 3’s on EVERY evaluation…the only speaker who received all 3’s! We appreciate that he was very knowledgeable about our industry!”
–Judy Adams, Executive Director, Georgia Association for Home Health Agencies, Inc.
“Jason was the closing speaker at our recent one day conference for HR professionals. We needed a final speaker that would send the attendees home on a positive and refreshed note. We were looking for someone informative, funny and energetic…he met all three of those requirements plus some. On top of all of that, Jason had to speak to our group on a Friday afternoon!
He reminded all of us that although our work may be serious, we didn’t have to take ourselves that seriously. His stories, examples and videos generated amusement, outright laughter, and heads were nodding in agreement with what he said throughout. He kept the group’s attention (talking to HR people can be like “herding cats”). Jason has an easy–going presentation style which quickly engages a group and creates a very positive atmosphere.
We thoroughly enjoyed his presentation and would recommend him as a speaker/entertainer at any venue you would have him at.”
–Thomas Rudey, Vice President, Human Resources & Security Officer, F&M Bank
“I have been putting on conferences for 20 years and Jason is the first presenter that I have had that received a standing ovation. He gives each participant he comes in contact with food for thought, joy, a new appreciation for life. We LOVE Jason!! He was absolutely outstanding!”
–Jacqueline Strand, Executive Director, Northwest Connection Family Resources
“It was incredible – great to laugh and be reminded of small things we can do to lighten the load of our work and remember what is important. It’s a great presentation with awesome ideas to bring us out of our boxes. There are tons of examples of how to do this and how to escape Adultitis.”
–Catherine Marshall, International Association of Administrative Professionals
“Jason’s program was fun and professional. He did a great job captivating our audience – I saw people laughing AND crying during the presentation. Securing Jason as a speaker and working with Kim made the process really easy. In fact, he was probably one of the easiest presenters that I have ever worked with.”
–Lisa Lieske, Conference Coordinator, Prevent Child Abuse
“Jason’s playful demeanor and entertaining presentation emphasized to our audience the important message to never lose sight of that childlike curiosity. Jason struck the perfect balance using laughter and humorous anecdotes to impart that life lesson. A funny and refreshing keynote speaker for our event!”
–Michael Zimmerman, Fitchburg Economic Development Director
“Jason was fantastic! Real world observations, some that you know, some that you have not thought about, all things you need to consider while navigating LIFE. It was uplifting, thoughtful, and funny. I felt it was well rounded and I did not walk away ‘wanting’ any more, other than more in general because it was great! Definitely see his presentation when you have the opportunity.”
–Christie L. Dando, Program Chair, MMGMA: Michigan Medical Group Managers Association
“Jason was so phenomenal, we are all speechless. Thank you a million times.”

–Donna Fotopulos, Health and Wellness Specialist, Brakebush Brothers Inc.
“One of my favorite parts was the personal connection he made with our members with the “Hey Burritto!” Song. Having his children wear sombreros and sing the song was precious! Another favorite part was the video of when yall went to the zoo to feed the giraffe’s….with your mouth!I also liked how you referenced several times, ‘these are things you already know’ but a reminder IS always good! It may be ‘stuff’ you know about, but you haven’t stopped long enough to think about or consider it important in regards to your own life!”
–Jennifer Amundsen, Conference Coordinator, Children’s Oncology Camping Assn. International
“Jason was great – really well–prepared – great flow and impeccable timing on the presentation. I will keep him in mind for future events!”
–Roelif Loveland, President, Maze Nails
“It was great to start the conference with humor, a reminder to be less business–like (despite all that charting!) at work and let humor be part of what we do. Levity is good and we appreciate this Adultitis concept!”
–Mary Anderson, Association of Women’s Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses
“Thank you for your role in today’s wonderful program. Jason was a real hit. We count this as a highly successful event for our staff that will help us hit ‘reset’ on the stress levels. In other words, it was terrific! I loved that Jason shared the big ideas but then followed up with specific steps that people can take. That is vital. It’s one thing to hear the big ideas, but it’s infinitely more valuable to learn how to break them into chunks that can make an everyday difference for you and your family. By the way, an initially skeptical member of our executive staff just stopped by to tell me that the program was really great. Victory!!”
—Darla Dernovsek, Marketing Communications Manager, The Alliance
“I would absolutely recommend Jason. We’ve gotten rave reviews! I thought he was fantastic! His presentation was just the right mix of funny, quirky, heartfelt and touching. I sat in the audience with our attendees to gauge their reaction, and found myself caught up in the momentum of the presentation. I loved the personal stories about your children and about things that you two have done together to laugh more, it resonated with me and our audience. Jason had the difficult task of being the final speaker on the longest day of our conference. Attendees are exhausted, and we always try to find someone to end the day who can make them laugh AND make them really think about their lives. Jason accomplished both! Thank you! Based on the evals we’ve received at this point, Jason received an average score of 4.5 out of 5. Here were some of the comments we received on our evaluation: ‘Jason was great’, ‘Jason was fantastic!’, ‘Jason was an incredibly inspirational speaker. I was able to incorporate several of his ideas already into my household at home. It has made for many fun family times together and countless bouts of laughter.’”
–Jennifer Battista, Communications Director, Pennsylvania Homecare Association
“Jason was out opening speaker for the Michigan APCO fall conference. Everyone loved him! He got the best reviews ever! Jason kept the session entertaining and gave a great message to relieve some of the stress we experience everyday. The content of his session was totally different than anything we have ever heard. He has a great message and a message that we can all use.”
–Sandra Nielsen, Tuscola County Central Dispatch, Michigan APCO: Association of Public–Safety Communications Officials Conference
“Jason leaves people feeling encouraged, motivated, and ready to make life altering positive changes in their lives. He spoke at our conference of 700 attendees and without a doubt he was the event’s favorite.”
–Mary Metelak, Conference Chair, Children’s Brain Development Conference, Mahnomen, MN

–Liza Taylor, Occupational Health Nurse, Baxter Healthcare Corp.
“Jason is the buzz of our company! We have heard that his presentation was the best that we have brought in. It was outstanding, fun and motivating!

You are doing great things!!”
–Lauren Nordeen, Executive Director, Wyoming Child and Family Development, Inc.

–Trish Saccomano, Conference Coordinator, Utah Association for the Education of Young Children

–Lisa P. Olson, Director of IT Services, Marquette University
“Jason’s presentation was extremely well–received by our participants who rated his performance at a 4.41 out of 5 points (Excellent–Outstanding). Adding his presentation to any professional conference would be a worthwhile improvement to your constellation of keynote speakers. Given our experience with Jason I would highly recommend him. Some of the written comments included the following: Good change of pace. Good relaxing way to end the conference and to send us home with a smile! Well worth sitting back and being present.”
–Ron Wilson, Executive Director, North American Assoc. of Educational Negotiators

–Angie Kendall, Community Education Department, Child Abuse Council, IA
“Everyone had great things to say about Jason and his message! A few speakers referred to having Adultitis (and their need to get over it) in their sessions that afternoon and this morning. And a few conversations this morning at breakfast referenced the same thing. It’s been a pleasure to work with you, we’re looking forward to having Jason at future meetings and conferences. I’ll keep you posted.”
–Ann White, Conference Coordinator, National WIC Association
“Jason’s presentations were wonderful!! Everyone really enjoyed it. It was fun and made you think. I even sat thru it twice! I’ve been getting great emails from people thanking me for bringing you in. They have enjoyed sharing your ideas with their departments. One person said you were the best presenter in his 30 yrs. at the clinic! Thank you!”
–Teri Kranz, Manager of Employee Relations, Prevea Health
