UPROXX 20: Moshe Kasher Is Really Into Grilled Cheese Porn And Jared Kushner Hate-Porn

Moshe Kasher is a comedian and writer perhaps best known for his comedy specials and for co-hosting (along with Neal Brennan) the popular podcast The Champs from 2011-2016. You may also know him from his roles on Portlandia, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and The League. Currently he’s the host of the new Comedy Central show, Problematic with Moshe Kasher, which debuted last week. Described in a press release as “a hyper-modern take on the casual daytime talk format of the 1980s, reimagined into a joke-fueled show for the digital generation,” the show returns with a new episode on Tuesday, April 24 at 10pm ET.

Kasher was nice enough to take a few minutes to participate in our twenty questions questionnaire.

1. You walk into a bar. What do you order from the bartender

I would do one of those coded drinks to let the bartender know I’m in danger and to call 911 just to see if it worked.

2. Who’s your favorite person to follow on Twitter and/or Instagram

Besides me it’s gotta be Chelsea Peretti (for grilled cheese porn) or Joe Mande (for Kushner hate porn).

3. What’s currently waiting for you on your DVR or in your streaming queue

A tidal wave of unfinishable content to distract me from melting ice sheets, a.k.a. I’m still trying to get current on Big Little Lies.

4. It’s your last meal — what are you going out with

A burrito that combines meat and cheese, a combination I have not had in years. When I go out, I want to arouse the anger of the Lord God.

5. What websites do you visit on a regular basis

Bbw hunter. Worldstar. Sherdog.

6. What’s the most frequently played song on your mobile device

Whatever bullshit apple OS auto-loads onto my car stereo in it’s most profoundly infuriating glitch. It was Frank Ocean’s Nikes then I erased the album to try and stop it, now it’s a David Foster Wallace story about Max Hardcore. And as cool as it makes me sound to have had those auto-loaded, I’d rather only have Damn Yankee’s “Can You Take Me High Enough” as my only song option if it meant I could start my car and not have it blare into my life unheeded.

7. If you could go back and give your 18-year-old self one piece of advice what would it be

Don’t bother with college. A religion degree is not applicable to a life in comedy clubs.

8. What’s the last thing you Googled

Who sang “Can you take me high enough.”

9. Dogs or cats

If you have to ask you’re a bitch-ass cat-loving ass bitch.

10. Best concert of your life was…

Paul McCartney when he finally stopped trying to force us to listen to his “other music”

Moshe Kasher’s seminal classic coming of age memoir Kasher in the Rye: The True Tale of a White Boy from Oakland Who Became a Drug Addict, Criminal, Mental Patient, and Then Turned 16. Available now on amazon.com.

12. What’s the nicest thing anyone has ever done for you

My wife married me, I guess.

13. South Park or Family Guy

Dilbert.

14. You have an entire day to do whatever you want. What would you do

Get a massage in Maui then surf gentle waves that don’t frighten me.

15. What movie can you not resist watching if it’s on

Shawshank.

16. The sports team or teams you’re most passionate about

The Kurdish autonomous region.

17. Where did you eat the best meal of your life

Impossible to answer: Gary Danko in SF, Baco Mercat and Bazaar in LA, Di Umberto and Nino in Rome, Shalom Falafel in Jerusalem I mean why even ask..

18. The last movie you saw in a theater

Get Out. Also the best movie of 2017.

19. Who was your first celebrity crush

The Noxzema girl and the chick whose underwear was around her ankles on the Appetite for Destruction album.
