Colin Jost is a head writer at Saturday Night Live, a Weekend Update co-anchor, and a touring stand-up comedian.

He lives in New York and in the hearts of children everywhere.
“Colin Jost is as funny as his face is punchable. Which is to say:
very. He also knows a lot about Staten Island, soiling himself,
internal parasites, and firemen’s pensions. He’s really the whole
package. And if you care about comedy—writing it, performing it,
watching it, or giving up any semblance of a normal adult life for
it—so is his book.”—Zadie Smith
“Colin Jost is one of the best people I know and one hell of a
writer. This book proves both to be true.”—Seth Meyers
“I was caught off guard by how much I enjoyed this book,
considering how indifferent I feel about Colin as a person.”—Amy
Schumer
“An inspiring story that reminds us that if you are born with looks
and talent, you can still make it.”—Conan O’Brien
“I think this book is fantastic. I haven’t read a single word of
it, but it’s got everything I want in a book—a front, a back, a
good spine. And it’s got some heft. Whoever wrote this book knew
what she was doing. Well done.”—Michael Che
