JUST KEEP LIVIN’?

Jen’s second Netflix special which came out in 2017. Filmed in NYC. It’s streaming now on Netflix!

“A particularly ludicrous story about the inadequate sex ed class she received in high school turns into Kirkman tracking down a pregnancy book at her local library by using the card catalogue (this is pre-Internet, after all), because she was confused about the possibly fecund nature of fingerbanging. These are her gems. Kirkman shines when she trains her laser-sharp focus on the preposterous while managing to wink at her own complicity.” - Paste Magazine

I’M GONNA DIE ALONE (AND I FEEL FINE)

Jen’s first Netflix comedy special which was released in 2015. Filmed in Austin,Texas. It’s streaming now on Netflix!

“Ms. Kirkman knows how to deliver a one-liner, but her inclination is to linger in the telling of a story. She digs into a subject, embroidering it with jokes at various angles. A huge number of her bits culminate in vivid metaphors.Though delivered in an effortless conversational style, her comedy has the meticulous detail that can come only from repetition and experience.” - The New York Times

OK, GEN-X

OUT NOW!
Jen Kirkman’s latest comedy release - a comedy album (to be released digitally only) recorded at Union Hall in December of 2021, right before the Omi hit, over the course of a few nights in the renowned Brooklyn basement venue, the album offers a few useful tools to better understand the patriarchy including the game “Would a Man Say this To Another Man In An Elevator?” Kirkman sits on a stool and does comedy without having anything to apologize for, talks about her not-serious-Catholic upbringing and why she’s jealous of Greta Thunberg, and sets the record straight on Generation X, the generation that actually prefers everyone ignore them anyway.

REVIEW OF “OK, GEN-X”

“….And that’s the best thing about OK, Gen-X. Kirkman makes her opinions clear on misogyny, various comedians’ reprehensible behavior, and other subjects, but most importantly, she’s funny. So many comics, Chappelle included, air heinous views about other people without so much as even trying to make actual jokes… being in front of a mic doesn’t give you license to be an asshole; it gives you the opportunity to prove you’re funny. And Kirkman does that in spades.

In her new show, Jen reveals her Just Keep Livin' tattoo (a sage Mathew McConaghey quote), explains how we approach culture and spirituality, talks about women being able to travel alone, all while trying to keep the crazy in (when it matters). - Bust Magazine

Kirkman is at her hard-hitting finest in her latest Netflix project. She talks frankly about street harassment, birth control, and sex education - in a style that’s as much political as comedic. Kirkman is one of the slickest in the business at what she does. - Telegraph.co.uk

SELF HELP

aspecialthing records inaugural release: JEN KIRKMAN'S debut album “SELF HELP” - released 2007. Recorded live at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in Los Angeles, “Self Help” is a whirlwind tour of the foibles and fixations that have made Jen Kirkman one of the most beloved storytellers on the comedy scene today. From her apathy towards procreation to her myriad phobias (God, flying, zombies), Jen bares all to her audience, striking a delicate balance between sly self-deprecation and the earnest conviction of a zealot. On “Self Help,” Jen treats us to social embarrassments from grade school to adulthood, resists the urge to commit the perfect murder (then fantasizes about all the “me” time a long prison sentence would afford), and worries that God has forgotten about her -- because, in her words, “I've moved around a lot, and sometimes I wear a hat.”
