There are many people running for president in 2020, but only one of them was called by TBS one of “the funniest comedians working today."
Ben Gleib is the host and head writer of the Emmy nominated "Idiotest" on NETFLIX and Game Show Network, and was one of the stars of “Chelsea Lately” on E! His hilarious standup special on SHOWTIME "Ben Gleib: Neurotic Gangster" is currently on AMAZON PRIME.
You may have seen one of his many appearances on the “Today Show" with Kathie Lee and Hoda, "@Midnight" on Comedy Central, guest starring in the new series “American Princess” on Lifetime, or voicing Marshall the Sloth in “Ice Age” and Dali in “The Book of Life.”
He recently created the “Telethon for America” a voter turnout event which he hosted with Olivia Munn, featuring Natalie Portman, Charlize Theron, Chelsea Handler, Jane Fonda, Hasan Minhaj, Pete Davidson, Amy Schumer, Adam Devine, Dr. Phil and more. He has also been a contributor or host on CNN, Headline News, FOX News, NPR, ABC News, and makes politics and pop culture funny on his podcast “Last Week on Earth”.
Esquire said he “could be comedy’s next big thing” but now with his candidacy for the Democratic nomination, he could be America’s next president! Come see his standup tour now, because if he wins, it could be his last for four or eight years!

  • Michael Winslow
    October 10, 2020 at 8:00 PM Michael Winslow
    Michael Winslow had his first television appearance on The Gong Show in which he squeezed in sound-a likes of Benji the movie dog, Star Trek, and Jimi Hendrix’s “Purple Haze”. Winslow, who was born on September 6, 1958 in Spokane, Washington, played the role of the Radar Operator, who was in charge of the radar and could imitate realistic sounds using his own voice. He is best known for his role as Sgt. Larvelle “Motor Mouth” Jones in the Police Academy series of movies and TV shows. In 1985, Island released a 12″ of Michael Winslow titled “I Am My Own Walkman”. He also appeared as a radar operator in the movie Spaceballs, in which he performs all the sound effects during his scene himself. Mel Brooks (who wrote, directed, produced, and co-starred in the film), stated that by doing so, Winslow saved the film money. Winslow is also a motivational speaker. Since the fall of 2008, Winslow has hosted the motion picture television series called “Way Back Wednesday with Winslow” on the cable super station WGN America, which features movies mostly released in the 1980s. Michael continues to perform stand-up comedy around the globe.
