Bo has opened for major acts including Marc Maron, Joe Dombrowski, Jessica Kirson, and David Nihill. With a growing online audience Bo’s jokes have been viewed millions of times online. Most recently he released his first full length special, “Two Sailboats” in 2025. Deadline included Bo in their list and regarding his special wrote, “For my money, Bo Johnson had one of the best debut specials in recent memory in Two Sailboats, a self-released hour culminating in a joke performed by his father…”

Separate from stand up comedy, one time Bo and his best friend from high school snuck into a movie theater as one person. That video was broadcast on TV shows like the now cancelled Caught on Camera with Nick Cannon on NBC and the lowest rated daytime talk show at the time, The Meredith Veira Show. Bo still gets messages each year from friends seeing the video go viral on different meme accounts. Numerous magazines and newspapers also wrote about the hijinks, including an article in Cosmopolitan titled, “Man Sneaks His BFF Into Movie Theater by Stuffing Him Into His Pants.” More recently Bo trained his roommates dog by walking her to Shania Twain's "Man! I feel like a Woman!" in a viral stunt earning over 7 millions views on Tik Tok and press coverage in  both major and incredibly minor publications.
