EXCLUSIVE: No Flies On Me, the second stand-up special from comedian Jen Kober, will debut on YouTube via 800 Pound Gorilla tonight at 7:00 p.m. CST.
In the special, taped at Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, NV, Kober brings audiences together with stories about dealing with hometown hicks, unforgiving fruit flies and California candy cartels.
“No Flies on Me is finally here! This special is truly the funniest storytelling I’ve ever done. And it’s all based on my wild adventures out in the world… said Kober in a statement to Deadline. “I’m a Southern Jewish Lesbian with a Catholic School education – comedy is what I was built for. Making people laugh has always helped me navigate life’s tricky intricacies and embrace my unusual circumstances.”
Continued Kober, “I am deeply grateful for the constant support of Brad Garrett and the incredible team at 800 Pound Gorilla. Their belief in my vision has made this journey possible; that and my unwavering good looks, obviously.”
Written and performed by Kober, No Flies On Me is exec produced by Garrett, Ed Conover, and Kober. Michael Malone served as the director of the special.
Previously releasing the special Top Banana through Dry Bar Comedy, Kober is a native of Lake Charles, LA whose comedic style is born out of her humble Southern upbringing. The winner of Best Comedic Performance on NPR’s storytelling show, Snap Judgement, she’s the headlining comedian for Cirque Du Soleil’s hit Las Vegas show Mad Apple and has also been seen on series like The Righteous Gemstones, The Mandalorian, Diary of a Future President and American Horror Story.
Kober is represented by Silvera Arougheti Entertainment Group.
