Jared Kassebaum is an LA-based comic who can be seen on TBS's Foul Play with Anthony Davis, pranking professional athletes. His first album, The Better Jared, hit #1 on iTunes in 2023 and can be heard on SiriusXM. He got to represent millennials as a comedian in a competition on Good Mythical Morning with Rhett and Link, the internet's top daily talk show.

Originally from Indiana and proud of his Midwestern roots, Jared charms audiences around the country with his unique blend of naive storytelling, witty wordplay, and occasional song on an undersized keyboard. He’s convinced that makes the songs funnier, even if the venue has a nice piano.
​
As a teenager, he originally planned to follow in his father's footsteps in becoming a scientist, until a tragedy in college reoriented his perspective and he realized he didn’t want to take measurements in a lab anymore. His brand of earnest wit reflects this—from his desire to wonder at the ridiculousness of life to his scientific dissection of language. At 6'5", he can help raise your town's average height (if raising its average joy just isn’t enough on its own).

Jared was wonderful and the students had positive things to say about his performance. He stayed for a few minutes after as well and gave out some stickers and took pictures. He was a blast!
