He’s performed on the Tonight Show, Conan, Jeff Ross Presents Roast Battle, the Comedy Central Half Hour and some stuff with MTV2 he doesn’t like to talk about. You can catch him in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, The League, The Mindy Project and alongside Billy Crystal and Tiffany Haddish in the film Here Today. He is the creator of the webcomic and puzzle app, Monday Punday.

Temple Beth Am's Addiction Support Group for the Jewish Community

Addiction is a disease, and it’s in the Jewish community. We are here to support recovery from addiction. We are working to eliminate the shame often felt by those struggling with addiction and their families. Through our education and addiction awareness programs, we strive to end the stigma, so all Jews can feel that they belong.

Recovery is strengthened through our support group and the exploration of Jewish traditions, wisdom, and texts. Our Addiction Support Group for the Jewish Community welcomes everyone who struggles with addiction and their loved ones.
