BIO:
Jen Fulwiler is a standup comic, bestselling author, and former SiriusXM radio host who has released three comedy specials: The Naughty Corner (2020), Maternal Instinct (2024), and Shabby Chic (2025).
She has been featured on Nate Bargatze's Nateland Presents, Where My Moms At with Christina P, Dr. Drew After Dark, the Today Show, CNN, and Fox News. She was featured in the viral articles, "5 Comedians Like Nate Bargatze Who Make Everyone Laugh," and "6 Comics To Check Out If You Love Leanne Morgan."
Jen is a mom with zero domestic skills, and a Catholic who hopes that heaven has an AP exam so she can test out of being a good person. Her stories of failing her way through life will resonate with anyone who doesn't have it all together.
Normally she lives with her husband and six kids in Austin, Texas, but right now she divides her time between Austin and Memphis as one of her children is being treated at St. Jude's.
