About Jeff McBride

Brooklyn, NY, US

The content of my act centers around my experience growing up in the middle of nowhere, conservative and narrow-minded, and my path away from that. As a xenophile who looks like a he'd do well on "Okkkcupid," I focus on the learning about, engaging with, celebrating, and gently poking fun at our multicultural world. I use my mistakes and mishaps to illustrate how my view of the world has evolved over time. I also talk about sexuality, polyamory in particular. I've got a child on the way, so that's creeping into my act now. My goal is to challenge bias, rather than confirm it, but I always put funny first. Regarding the craft of my act, I primarily employ autobiographical stories, act-outs, accent work, joke writing, and crowd interactions. I'm not a one-liner comic or a "let me tell you what you already know" kind of comic. The overall slant is somewhat liberal, but I've honed my act in 44 different states for a wide variety of audiences, mostly conservative ones in the last few years, but I started in NYC. I have a solid hour, about half of which is clean. I'm a very strong feature who's just started headlining. last year.
