Personal life Adam was born Corey Adam Allegrezza in Hibbing, Minnesota. Adam began using his first and middle names as a stage name in 2008 because of his frustration with frequent mispronunciations of "Allegrezza."

Career Stand-up comedy Adam's comedy has been described as "self-deprecating and sarcastic." He moved briefly to Las Vegas at age 22 to further his stand-up career, but has been based in the Twin Cities until 2021, when he moved to Austin, Texas. He has been a regular host of comedy nights at several clubs in Minneapolis. Originally self-funded through crowdsourcing, No Joke was later picked up by Grammy-winning producer Dan Schlissel of Stand Up! Records, who produced his subsequent works. Richard Lanoie of The Serious Comedy Site praised 2018's Jokes for its "adult sense of humor and a taste for the absurd."

Radio and podcasts He was a regular co-host on the Steel Toe Morning Show on Youtube.com out of St. Cloud, Minnesota, and has been a frequent guest on the sports talk show SKOR North Live on KSTP-AM, Laughing Matters with Robert Baril on KTNF-AM, and the WFTC-TV pop-culture show On the Fly with Tony Fly. In 2012–2013, Adam co-hosted Dirty Bomb Shop, a podcast about the craft of stand-up comedy.
