Try and pick a late show that “bicon” Jay Jurden has not been on. His standup has been featured on <em>The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon</em>, <em>The Late Late Show with James Corden</em> and <em>The Late Show with Stephen Colbert</em>. Jurden’s quick wit earned him a spot on the Emmy nominated <em>The Problem with Jon Stewart</em>, where he’s one of the show’s writers from 2021-22. The Mississippi native-turned-New Yorker has talent and looks that can’t stay hidden in the writers’ room. When the Queerties nominee is not performing at the New York Comedy Festival or appearing on After Midnight with Taylor Tomlinson, he’s traversing the United States on his Kinda Sorta Sorta Kinda Still on Tour. — J.S.M.
