About this show

Josh Gondelman is a writer and comedian who incubated in Boston before moving to New York City, where he currently lives. He recently worked as the head writer and an executive producer for Desus & Mero on Showtime. Additionally, he contributed to the final season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, which was a thrill for both him and his parents. Prior to that, Gondelman spent five years at Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, first as a web producer and then as a staff writer where he earned four Emmy Awards, two Peabody Awards, and three WGA Awards. His debut standup special People Pleaser (2022) was produced by Comedy Dynamics and is available to stream now, as is his most recent special, Positive Reinforcement (2025), which was produced by Blonde Medicine. If Josh's face seems familiar, you may recognize it from his appearances on Conan (TBS), Late Night With Seth Meyers (NBC), and The Late Late Show with James Corden (CBS). But you may also know his voice from his regular appearances on the NPR news quiz show Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me. Gondelman is also the author of the essay collection Nice Try: Stories of Best Intentions and Mixed Results published September 2019 by Harper Perennial. And, if you remember this far back, he was the co-creator of the popular Modern Seinfeld Twitter account.
