"Jackie is probably best described as a comic with a sardonic delivery matched with a geeky interior and surprisingly chill exterior. That's perhaps the greatest thing about Jackie, her very real, very personal delivery, and very human thoughts on what she's expounding, coupled with a voice that just barely betrays the fact that she's just a little smarter than everyone listening." |
"In (a) world ridden with podcasts...The Dork Forest is a Diamond" |
"Jackie Kashian is like the comic next door - if the comic next door is prone to acutely hilarious family stories" (her podcast - The Dork Forest is) "dependably entertaining." |
"The gem of the night was Jackie Kashian. Her droll, perceptive description of her family was hilarious." |
