“I've had the pleasure of working with CTB as both an On-Air Talent and as an Exec. Producer, and in both roles, I've always found their support and the work they do to be instrumental in the process of making content at the highest level.”

Ben Lyons On Air Talent/Executive Producer

“I've worked with Jo and her team for nearly 20 years now – having brought Central Talent Booking to XM Satellite Radio (now SiriusXM) and, very recently, for multiple projects for the National Comedy Center. CTB is an extraordinary partner for talent booking – highly strategic, extremely knowledgeable, brilliantly creative and relentlessly focused on execution at the highest level, not to mention a lot of fun to work with. No matter how challenging the project may be, I know they will go well beyond my expectations while representing my organization with great professionalism and zeal. I look forward to working with CTB on many more projects in the years to come.”
