Here’s some things to know about Moshe Kasher, according to Moshe Kasher. He is a comedian, Jew, Jew comedian, pleasure center, good tipper and a beefcake. He has also made guest appearances on Chelsea Lately, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Conan, Drunk History, and (in case you can’t tell from the description above) he’s one of the Jewiest comedians about to hit the big-time.
The 37-year-old comic has a new talk show called “Problematic” premiering on Comedy Central April 18th, which will, according to Kasher be a “a safe space for offensive comedy.”
In preparation for what will most likely a highly trigger-free zone (heh, try calling this comedian a “snowflake”), we pulled together some of his best, Jewiest Twitter jokes so far.
