Known for his brutally honest style, Jefferies often jokes that, while his father was a carpenter, he didn’t inherit any of those handy skills. Instead, he found his calling in making people laugh with his provocative takes on politics, religion, and the absurdities of modern life.

The Son of a Carpenter tour promises to deliver the perfect blend of biting humor and personal anecdotes, with Jefferies diving into everything from family life to society’s biggest issues.

If you've seen his Netflix special High & Dry or his hit show The Jim Jefferies Show on FX, you know he’s not afraid to tackle taboo subjects head-on, always leaving audiences laughing and thinking.

Jefferies has built a global fanbase with his fearless comedy, and the intimate setting of the MJN Center will only make the connection between him and the audience that much stronger.

I was first exposed to Jim Jeffries through his appearances on the Opie and Anthony radio show on satellite radio in the early 2000s. Saying things that could never be said on terrestrial radio.

Fans in Poughkeepsie can expect a night full of laughs, with Jefferies delivering his signature brand of humor that challenges and entertains all at once.
