A self-confessed raconteur of weird stories and one of the finest and more cerebral comics around, it's no wonder that Jake is one of David Letterman's favorite comics. With over twenty-nine Letterman appearances under his belt (not to mention a handful of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and Politically Incorrect gigs) Jake is no stranger to late night television. His late night appearances gave Jake the exposure he needed to land his very own HBO comedy special, This'll
Take about an Hour.
Jake's latest Showtime special - I Love You - was just released on January 1st and is replayed periodically on Showtime. He tickles the crowd's collective funnybone with this new set that mines everything from taxes to his marriage for hilarious material.
Jake received incredible reviews, strong ratings, and a Cable Ace Award nomination for Best Writing in an Entertainment Special. People Magazine rated the special as one of the "ten best television shows of the year," and TV Guide named it one of the "50 Funniest Moments of TV."

Jake is also making his mark on the feature world. Jake recently appeared on the big screen next to Bruce Willis in the Alan Rudolph film Breakfast of Champions. Jake first worked with Rudolph on the film Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle, in which he co-starred in a cast that included Matthew Broderick, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Campbell Scott. Jake's bizarre take on life and his uniquely intelligent style have made him a regular at comedy clubs all over the country and a former host of Comedy Central's Two Drink Minimum.
