==Early life and comedy career==
Emery was born Emery Emery II in Anaheim, California, his father was Emery Emery also, but later changed his name to Bob. Emery and his family moved to Kansas City when he was two. He got his start doing open-mic nights in 1981 in the Kansas City area, and got his first solo gig at the comedy club Stanford and Sons in 1984.〔 Emery developed an act that was a blend of dark comedy and observational humor, which he said was inspired by Bill Hicks.〔 He has also listed Sam Kinison and Lenny Bruce as key influences. Emery quickly gained local attention, and was featured in several articles in the ''Kansas City Star'' and the ''Olathe Daily News''.〔
Emery moved to Costa Mesa in 1991, where he continued his comic career in various comedy clubs in Southern California. He expressed frustration with the state of comedy at the time, saying "There's no camaraderie.... There's no argument about what's right or wrong to do."〔 Nonetheless, he continued to perform stand-up in California and around the country, and gained recognition, with news sources saying he "packs a wicked comic punch"〔 and "pushes hard against the boundaries of good taste and manners."〔 In 1995, he released a CD, ''The Purveyor of Filth'', which included his stand-up routines and what he described as "prose in the form of spoken word." He noted that it had "been called everything from brilliant twisted ramblings to the sick scratchings of an obviously, sociopathic malcontent. Both are right."〔
In 1997, he moved back to Kansas City, and had a stint as the host of a radio show, ''Saturday Mornings with Emery Emery and Raine'' on KY 102 for nine months before moving to Los Angeles.〔
