  • EP#17 - Jordan Klepper Contains Multitudes
    Apr 13 2026

    This week we welcome Emmy-winning American comedian (and fellow Bobsessive) Jordan Klepper, co-host of The Daily Show on Comedy Central.


    Is I Contain Multitudes the “cleanest on-ramp we’ve had for 15 years”? Is the pairing of Anne Frank and Indiana Jones ludicrous swagger or playful rip-off? Is Key West a tropical paradise or purgatory? Did Jordan find spiritual enlightenment listening to The Basement Tapes while swigging a bottle of champagne? What did he discover when rushing the Beacon Theatre stage?

    Who killed Kennedy? Why spell it G-d? Is it about America’s soul, Lee Harvey Oswald, Houdini, generational trauma or the number 3? What does Nick Cave think? Can you spot the Warren Zevon reference? How many Dylan songs begin with “Twas”? Does the Rough and Rowdy Ways album form a genre of its own? Is it pronounced Sooz or Suzy?
