Jesus Trejo

For starters, no, Jesus isn’t related to Danny Trejo…I asked. He joked about meeting the well-loved heavy in Horror, Action and Comedy flicks; Danny asked him if he was an unknown grandkid.

Meanwhile, Jesus is a hilarious up-and-coming comedian I saw at the 4/20 Showcase and the Sklar Brothers Ping Pong Smackdown. His jokes weren’t entirely about his ethnicity which in Texas, many Texans know; the Mexican people have lived in the state a couple centuries before 1836. Jesus is much funnier than the lowest-common denominator jokes surrounding the unfunny Gabriel Iglesias. My favorite was his time at the gym, lifting weights, noticing his muscles and neck tattoos until he realized he wasn’t looking in a mirror, he was staring at a stronger, tougher-looking dude!

Jesus is a resident of the LA scene but should he return to headline at Cap City, I’ll be there. The guy is funny and very kind.
