Jeremy Kugel has spent his life turning so many ordinary moments into shared comedy and joy. In doing so, he’s built communities where people feel safe enough to laugh, open up, and create lasting connections.
From the Chicken Nugget Hour of Power in Valentine, to Tuesday Night Toothbrush Fest in Stearns, to the Mardi Gras Marathon at Maryland’s dining hall, Jeremy has a rare gift: he uses humor to dissolve self‑consciousness, spark vulnerability, and create intimacy in places that are usually serious, including the world of finance.
We talk about where that instinct came from, how he’s carried it through every chapter of his life, and why learning how to laugh together is one of the best ways to get comfortable with vulnerability.
