About Jim Festante

An active actor and writer, Jim's appeared in several national commercials (including Scene It?, Microsoft, and others), was a featured sketch performer on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, and in several TV and web shows for NBC, MTV, and Comedy Central. He's been improvising for many years with various theaters (Upright Citizens Brigade, Improv Olympic) and even got the chance to open for "Weird Al" Yankovic.

He's provided video game content for Slate Magazine and The Washington Post, most notably correspondence from E3. Recently, Jim's had the opportunity to associate produce SyFy's Sci vs. Fi: Mass Effect 2 TV show and the developer diaries for the Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands for g-NET Media.

While often shouty on The Game Show, Jim's pretty mild-mannered IRL. He does a killer Bill Cosby impersonation, which he's happy to do if you buy him a shot.
