In this laugh-out-loud episode of The Skittle Squad Podcast, we welcome comedian Jeff Klein, the sharp wit behind the Amazon special Fatty Gay. With equal parts humor and honesty, Jeff shares stories from his comedy journey, spanning awkward near-death experiences, the chaos of wedding fashion debates, and the art (and struggle) of silencing hecklers mid-set.
Along the way, the conversation digs into what it really takes to keep audiences engaged, how personal stories fuel the creative process, and why laughter remains such a powerful connector for the LGBTQ+ community.
This episode explores:
– The origin of Fatty Gay (and the hilarious mispronunciation that started it all)
– Fashion controversies, relationships & dishwasher debates
– Surviving hecklers & the dynamics of stand-up comedy
– The role of humor & storytelling in LGBTQ+ visibility
– Behind Jeff’s hit series Beer with a Queer
