Ari Shaffir Biography

Ari Shaffir is a stand-up comedian, writer, producer, and podcaster known for his boundary-pushing approach to comedy. After relocating to Los Angeles to pursue stand-up, Shaffir began working at The Comedy Store, progressing from answering phones to positions in the cover booth and at the door, before being named a paid regular by owner Mitzi Shore. This experience at one of comedy's most storied venues established the foundation for a career marked by extensive stage work and an authentic comedic voice.

Shaffir gained wider recognition with the viral video series "The Amazing Racist." He became an opening act for Joe Rogan and toured with comedians including Joey Diaz, Duncan Trussell, Tom Segura, Brian Redban, and Eddie Bravo. His debut stand-up album, "Revenge for the Holocaust," debuted at number one on iTunes, reflecting his appeal to audiences seeking bold, risk-taking comedy. He followed this with several specials, including the Netflix special "Double Negative" and the Comedy Central special "Paid Regular."

Shaffir created, produced, and hosted the monthly live show "This Is Not Happening," a stand-up comedy format featuring comedians telling true-life stories around a theme. The show became a regular feature at comedy festivals, launched as a web series, and later premiered on Comedy Central, running for multiple seasons. His special "Jew" garnered over 7 million views and was featured in The New York Times list of best specials of the year.

In addition to his work on stage and screen, Shaffir is a prominent figure in the podcast industry. He launched the podcast "Skeptic Tank," where he and his guests—primarily comedians—discuss a range of topics, from comedic subjects to serious issues such as mental health, suicide, and prison. The podcast consistently ranks among the top-rated on iTunes and averages over 100,000 downloads per week. Shaffir has also appeared on numerous other podcasts, including "The Joe Rogan Experience," "Your Mom's House," "2 Bears 1 Cave," "Flagrant," and "TigerBelly," solidifying his presence in comedy media. Shaffir remains a distinctive and daring presence in stand-up comedy, podcasting, and entertainment.
