The Resume

    (March 2, 1983- )
    Born in Wading River, New York

    Voice credits include ‘BoJack Horseman’ and ‘Tuca and Bertie’
    Founding member of sketch comedy group Olde English

Why he might be annoying:

    With a marine biologist for a father, a botanist for a mother, and a younger sister holding a degree in particle physics, he claims to be ‘the only member of the family without a PhD.’
    Further to this point, he was regarded as not being particularly focused on any one task for long.
    ‘If your parents never had children, chances are you won’t, either.’
    His pompadour.

Why he might not be annoying:

    Not to say he wasn’t piqued by science; even Bill Nye the Science Guy is a start.
    While fronting his band in high school, he was known to break into little comedic bits between numbers.
    He swore off boozing in his mid-30s — around the time of ‘Adam Ruins Everything.’
    ‘People are so cynical about the media… they don’t trust anything they hear.’
    Millennials are likely to have a sympathetic ear – and kindred spirit – in him.
    He gained a Bachelor’s Degree in Philosophy from Bard College (where Olde English formed).
