Jason Klamm

“He does not represent himself as a paleontologist.” – The New York Times

 

My latest book, Ferris Bueller…You’re My Hero is available for pre-order now, everywhere that’s a thing.

I’m Jason Klamm (pronounced “klahm”). Comedy is my life. If you’ve heard of me, it’s probably because of the Comedy on Vinyl podcast, my last book We’re Not Worthy, or LA’s award-winning show A Drinking Game*.

I’m an award-winning writer and actor, filmmaker, voice actor, and podcast host. I’m one half of the sketch comedy group Dan and Jay’s Comedy Hour, now in it’s 4th decade. I also made an award-winning dinosaur video once that science really liked.

Also, Gore Vidal once called me a better interviewer than Ken Burns, and Conan O’Brien kindly “thanked me“** in his Mark Twain Award acceptance speech.

*I’ve played Vizzini, Rugen, Marty McFly, Hedley Lamarr, Charles DeMar, Michael Bolton, Scott Pilgrim, Shaun from Shaun of the Dead, Garth Algar and more. It’s one of the things I’m most proud of. You should see it.
**This is untrue. It was a transcription error that makes no sense. He actually clearly thanks long-time collaborator Jason Chillemi. I did play Conan in a short film once, though.
