Comedian Chris Gethard unveils new Jersey-centric project It is called New Jersey is the World and is part of several projects available on his Patreon platform. The Patreon page for New Jersey is the World describes the project as “an umbrella of projects exploring, celebrating, and laughing at the culture of America's most ridiculous state. Spearheaded by comedian Chris Gethard, it gathers a bunch of Jersey guys who grew up together so they can combine forces in their quest to break down all things Jersey. And it also invites you, the public at large, to get involved.” You might notice he uses the word “ridiculous” to describe New Jersey; rest assured, he does it with love. He also says: “New Jersey is the greatest place on planet earth. This is an indisputable fact.”
