NY Comedy Festival Presents The Jay and Silent Bob Reboot Roadshow
View all

Cinema icon Jason Mewes is best known as the potty-mouthed vocal half of Jay and Silent Bob, the on screen comedic duo who first appeared in Kevin Smith's seminal 1994 indie film Clerks. Mewes would reprise the character five more times on the big screen from 1995-2006 becoming a sort of James Bond of mid-90's low budget film—a fast talking, foul-mouthed, over-sexed but ultimately harmless and likable guy, Bugs Bunny with a boner.

But it's in the insanely popular award popcast Jay & Silent Bob Get Old where Mewes truly shines. For nearly seven years, in what's been described as "Lake Wobegon days with anal joke", Jason has told the story ofhis tumultuous life on stage every week.  

Kevin Smith has been saying silly cinematic shit since his first film Clerks, released way back in 1994. He had a heart attach and almost died last year but survived solely so he could direct his magnum opus, Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. A polygamist, he's married to both his wife Jen and podcasting.
