By Thea Glassman April 14, 2017
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.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism you rely on. Make a gift today!
