Jackie Kashian was born and raised in Milwaukee, WI and now resides in Los Angeles where she lives with her husband, Andy, and a farm’s worth of cats and dogs. She can rarely be found there and, instead, can often be seen on club stages throughout the U.S., or on her two popular podcasts: The Jackie & Laurie Show (Maximum Fun) and The Dork Forest. Her newest hour, Alter-Kashian comes out in early 2026 and features Jackie at the peak of her game.
