He's Here!

When I was a boy, one of my closest neighbors was Mama Bell Frampton. She was my grandmother’s age, and she loved children. She not only had a front porch, she had a back porch that led right to her kitchen. Every time I needed a treat, I’d knock on her back door and she’d welcome me. “Come for toast sticks, Jared?” She knew me so well.

I would have been about five or six when Mama Bell asked if I would like her to show me how to make my own toast sticks. Well, that was quite a day. She let me put the bread in the toaster and the butter and jam on the toast, and she even let me (ever so carefully) cut the toast into four long “sticks.” Seems like a simple thing, but sixty five years later. I can still feel it– that neighbor’s trust and my own pride at having made this first ones on my own. When I hear “Love your neighbor as yours.” I think often think of Mama Bell because I think she really did love me. She just somehow sensed what I needed in order to grow.

Jared has written, directed and performed in digital sketches from groups such as Crafts & Arts Comedy, and Otter Boys. As well as performed in several partially scripted shows like "The Jared Weil Spin-Off", "ISIS Will Die", and UCB's The Campfire Kids. His work can be seen on Funny or Die, Ch2, Splitsider, and Comedy Central's Tosh.0, and you can watch him perform stand-up and improv all around New York City.

He also co-hosts a seasonal video show called Red Hot Video Fun Time at the Bat Haus, where he and sketch groups premiere never before seen videos in the comedy community.
