Joe Zimmerman is known for his inventive writing style and playful persona. He grew up in Morgantown, West Virginia, and started his comedy career in North Carolina after graduating Davidson College. While in the south, he started a tour with three friends, called “The Beards of Comedy”, and landed a record deal with Comedy Central Records. In 2012, he moved to New York City, which quickly led to appearances on The Late Late Show and John Oliver’s New York Stand-Up Show, as well as Montreal’s Just for Laughs festival as a New Face.

His resume has since grown to include The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Conan on TBS, Nickelodeon, Last Comic Standing, his own Comedy Central Half Hour, as well as Comedy Central’s “This Week at the Comedy Cellar”.

Joe’s first solo album Smiling at Wolves (2014) reached number two on iTunes, and Paste Magazine named him one of 10 best comedians from the south.  His second album, Innocence, came out in 2018 and is played regularly on Sirius XM radio, and in 2019 he recorded a Dry Bar special with 1.5 million views on YouTube.

His first, fully produced one-hour special, Cult Classic, came out in 2023, directed by Nate Bargatze, and The Comedy Bureau named it “Without a doubt, one of the best specials of the year” and has since been picked up by Hulu.

Aside from headlining comedy clubs, he tours regularly in theaters with comedy legend Brian Regan, and arenas with rising super-star Nate Bargatze.

Joe is also a writer, having contributed humor pieces to The New Yorkerand The New York Times, and has an illustrated children’s book and short novel set to come out in 2025 and 2026.

This week's JEWISH JOKE talks about finding that perfect mate, from your host...

The Rabbi's widow 



The rabbi of a small village died and after some time the congregation decided the widow should remarry.

Given the size of the village there was only one possible candidate: the butcher.

Although not very excited because she was used to living with an intellectual, the widow agreed.

The wedding took place, and on Friday evening after the ritual bath, the butcher said, “My mother always told me that at the beginning of Shabbat you have to make love before going to the synagogue.”

So they did.

Returning from the service, he said, “According to my father, we have to make love before dinner.”

And they did it again.

As as he lay down to sleep, he said, “My grandfather always said that we have to make love on Shabbat night.”

And they did it again.

They finally fell asleep and the next mornin the butcher said, “My aunt says that a devout Jew always starts Shabbat by making love.”

And they did it again.

Later that morning the woman went to the synagogue and met a friend who asked, “How are things with your new husband?”

“Well, listen,” she replied. “He’s not much of an intellectual, but he comes from a really excellent family!”

With all the submissions The Chairman gets each day, this topic is the most popular.
With this in mind, we now have a category which features "The Jewish Joke of The Day".
