Jordan Klepper

Jordan Klepper is one of the sharpest satirists working today, and I admire the courage his approach demands. Wading into crowds and disarming people with humor is harder and braver than it looks on screen. I respect that he came up the hard way through improv before landing on The Daily Show, and that a canceled show of his own didn't dull his edge. Comedy that pokes at power invites endless blowback, yet he stays unmistakably himself. That consistency, more than any single bit, is what earns my lasting respect for him.
