Jake Johannsen (Full Interview)

Jake is one of the most original comics ever to step on a stage, and one of the best. He and David catch up.

Jake Johanssen joins us. He is no stranger to comedy fans. He’s never been on this show before, but he’s no stranger to my listeners because I’ve mentioned him a lot. Here’s why. Dennis Miller used to say to me that every comic, when they’re starting out, picks a guy who he uses as a yardstick, who he measures his career against. I made the mistake of measuring my career against Jake. This was a huge mistake. Because Jake, for example, has appeared on David Letterman 46 times. Countless specials on HBO and Comedy Central, and his podcast is “Jake this.” He will be at hilarities in Cleveland, Ohio June 15th through the 18th. Go see Jake.
