Summary

Comedian Ben Gleib is here and he is running for president, for real. When Rachael initially saw him announce this in social media she assumed it was a joke, until her and Kristen Doute attended his comedy show/political rally at The Hollywood Improv and they realized this is happening and it's so unbelievably cool. Ben Gleib has an incredible career and has been a headlining comedian for over 15 years and has performed at sold out arena's with Chelsea Handler and Dane Cook. He has a hilarious hour long standup special "Ben Gleib - Neurotic Gangster" that premiered on Showtime and is now streaming on Amazon Prime. He appeared on the round table on E!'s "Chelsea Lately," over 100 times, he's a regular on "The Today Show," and is the host, head writer, and executive producers of the Emmy Nominated game show "Idiotest" on Netflix.
