Not to be confused with the former Hearts, Kilmarnock and Bradford City manager and household name Jim Jefferies, this Jim Jefferies is an Australian comic who made his name with his loose, no-holds-barred stand-up shows. This year however, he’s hopped up to another level of stardom after having been chosen by Comedy Central to host a new weeklies series, The Jim Jefferies Show, which sees Jefferies travel the globe for a comedic look at culture and politics. That doesn’t mean he’s quit the stand-up job however: he’s going on tour again this winter, and comes to Stockholm in January.
