Jordan Klepper is perhaps best known for his work with “The Daily Show” and his multiple Emmy-nominated specials focusing on the political world. From covering the gun safety debate (“Jordan Klepper Solves Guns”) to his docuseries on the world of activism (“Klepper on Comedy Central”), Jordan has witnessed an insurrection, capsized a boat with pipeline protestors, interviewed a President and been arrested and locked up in Fulton County Jail. He also travels the globe with his segment “Fingers The Pulse,” which has racked up hundreds of millions of views. 

Klepper wrote, starred, and executive produced “Jordan Klepper Fingers the Pulse: Into The MagaVerse,” “Fingers The Midterms” (the most watched special on Comedy Central), and “Hungary for Democracy,” the latter of which garnered him a Walter Cronkite Award for Excellence in TV Political Journalism. He executive produced and hosted “The Opposition” and “Klepper” on Comedy Central, which was called “A fresh, powerful interpretation of news” by the Detroit Free Press. 

In addition to being a correspondent on the Peabody Award-winning Daily Show for nearly a decade and co-hosting this election year, he’s branched out into the podcast space co-hosting “StarTalk” with Neil deGrasse Tyson, co-hosting “Kasich and Klepper” (with former Governor John Kasich) as well as the Webby award winning “Fingers The Conspiracy” which took a deep dive into the world of conspiracy. Beyond his work in comedy, Klepper has chronicled his experiences in the world of politics from essays on CBS Morning to Op-Ed’s in the Boston Globe. He’s also been seen on CNN, MSNBC, Showtime’s “The Circus,” HBO’s “Night of Too Many Stars,” Netflix’s “The Who’s Who Show” and voices Pete on Disney’s “The Ghost and Molly McGee.”
