Ari Shaffir

About Ari Shaffir

Stand-up comedian, podcaster, and actor Ari Shaffir describes his comedy as a puppet show — but way filthier and without the puppets.

The New York-native grew up Orthodox Jewish, spent 2 years in a yeshiva in Israel, and came back to America to lose his religion and become a comic.

Shaffir released two Netflix specials, "Double Negative" which is presented in two 45-minute episodes called "Children" and "Adulthood." He has released two specials on Comedy Central — "Paid Regular" and "Passive Aggressive."

Prior to these specials, Shaffir’s stand-up album, "Revenge for the Holocaust," went to #1 on both iTunes charts and Amazon.com the week of its premiere.

He also finished 3 seasons as the host and co-creator of "This is Not Happening."
