Jewish comedian Alex Edelman has been nominated for best comedy show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2018.
The American comic previously said that his comedy act only works on American Jews in New York. But his nomination for his show Just For Us shows otherwise.
In an interview with the JC, the Yeshiva-educated comic said that he does not do politics but rather tells dumb jokes.
However, in the current political climate, it is impossible to avoid politics completely and his latest show includes jokes about him fancying Obama, meeting Prince William and discussing the Nazis.
