Helen Hong

A fan favorite on the hit NPR podcast Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me, Helen Hong also hosts the celebrity trivia game show podcast Go Fact Yourself. Helen’s acting credits include roles on Never Have I Ever, Silicon Valley, the Jennifer Garner Christmas movie Family Switch, and 5 seasons of The Thundermans on Nickelodeon.

A long-time touring standup comedian, Helen’s comedy special Well Hong was co-produced by Comedy Dynamics and Tribeca Film Festival, and is streaming now on Amazon Prime & Apple TV+. Audiences love Helen’s lightning quick crowd work which can be seen on her Instagram and TikTok @funnyhelenhong.

A breast-cancer survivor, Helen makes light of her cancer experience (and her “fresh new boobies”) onstage. She also brings light to Asian-American issues with her family’s YouTube channel “Old Korean Dad Stories.”

If you bring Helen a Topo Chico and a mini Snickers bar, she will love you FOREVER.
