Bill Maher
“I would definitely like to take this moment to take credit for launching Chuck's career many years ago from the inception of Politically Incorrect back in NY when it aired on Comedy Central. He also uprooted his NY roots and came with me to LA to work on the ABC version of the show. In reality, Chuck had a great knack for booking and merging panels on my show from all arenas such as politics, music, television, and film. Of course this led to many unpredictable topics and guest interaction on a nightly basis. I consider him a friend and ally in this town and wish him the best in his future endeavors.”
Steven Tyler
“First got to know Chuck when he got me to perform live some years back. After working with him I can say that he is the real deal and an absolute professional. I can truly say he is one of the most loyal and genuine people I have come across in this crazy business that I know all too well. Chuck always takes the call and is willing to consult with an open heart and mind. Bottom line, he's the guy that gets it done and I will forever value his unwavering loyalty and support. Boo yah….and that’s the truth.”
Sean Hayes
“Chuck helped make Hollywood Game Night a success for us through his relationships in the community - a testament to his positive reputation and work ethic. We feel lucky to have worked so closely with him and would do so again in a heartbeat."
