Why'd We Book It?

Watching Jay and Caleb on the So True podcast last year brought us to tears. Jay has such a distict voice as a writer and you can feel his energy through the writing on The Problem with Jon Stewart. Jay is extremely charasmatic and his shows are full of nonstop laughs. His wit when talking about his experience growing up Southern, Black, and queer is personal and genuine. We are excited to have him at Bottlerocket soon!
