Henley's show covers a variety of topics including current events, sports, religion, relationships and politics.

and headed to Phoenix for a career as a stockbroker. His attention
turned from finance to funnies when he entered and won a
comedy contest at a local nightclub. He began working the comedy
club circuit and moved to New York, which led to his first television
appearance on the CBS Morning Program. From there, he had
numerous appearances on Star Search, Showtime's Comedy Club Network,
A&E'S Evening at the Improv, Caroline 's Comedy Hour, MTV's
Funny Papers, and Stand-up Spotlight with Rosie 0 'Donnell.
