Deemed a less problematic Charles Bukowski meets a younger Big Lebowski by a stranger on the internet, Joshua Turek is a comedian and poet who has amassed a large cult following through his many viral but poignant videos. His philosophical comedy rants like the “Catcalling Construction Worker with a Heart of Gold” and “Existential Car Salesman” have garnered over 1 billion views on TikTok alone and hundreds of thousands of followers. A bibliophile, he is the host of the “Turek Books Podcast” where comedians and other interesting people talk about the books they are obsessed with. His debut poetry book “On the Outside Looking Up” sold out of its first printing in three weeks and he has since published two more. He has appeared on Hulu and Comedy Central.
