Jimmy Pardo

As an unabashed member of Team Coco — the rabid fan contingent of Conan O’Brian lovers — I’ve become familiar with comedian Jimmy Pardo through his near omnipresence on the Conan talk show. Most of Pardo’s work is done off-camera as the comic who warms up the studio audience before the show starts taping, but through the years he’s become more of a show regular, doing “field reports” for the show, joining guests on the couch and even guest hosting. He’s also a podcast pro, having started the Never Not Funny podcast more than a decade ago, featuring hilarious interviews with the likes of Amy Poehler, Sarah Silverman and Zach Galifianakis. A master at improvised comedy and working the crowd, Pardo is the kind of stand-up pro who’s a guaranteed good time. — DAN NAILEN
