Australian comic Jim Jefferies hit it big in the U.K. and now lives in the U.S., where his Netflix special Bare and FXX show Legit have earned him a reputation as a fearless performer who won’t shy away from controversial topics. Brash and boozy yet clear-headed and convincing, Jefferies has garnered significant praise for his take on gun control as well as Legit’s examination of living with disabilities. He’s performing as a part of his “Freedumb” tour.
