I first discovered Jim Gaffigan from a TV commercial, he gets up from a desk wearing roller skates and cut off short shorts. I laughed so hard, when I heard his bit about Bacon, I learned his name. Now I finally get to talk to him, before he appears at the DECC Symphony Hall.

Jim Gaffigan is very well known for his high pitched aside voice, it's supposed to be an easily offended audience member. It was really inspired by his sister. He does skits about bacon, cake and other food. That's why I liked him right away.

He also has done some acting and is featured on Comedy Central quite a bit. Most noteably "That 0's Show".

He has also released a book called "DAD IS FAT" which was written with his wife. Calls himself an observation comedian. He truly comments on the life around him.
