Jake and Amir is an American comedy duo made up of podcasters and former CollegeHumor writers Jake Hurwitz and Amir Blumenfeld. The duo came into prominence in 2007 when they began writing and starring in the web series Jake and Amir. The program would later be picked up and produced by CollegeHumor. It portrays humorous versions of Jake and Amir, where Jake is usually depicted as a sensible "regular guy" and Amir as his annoying co-worker who engages in bizarre and sometimes surreal hijinks which involuntarily involve Jake, much to his chagrin.
In 2013, Jake and Amir started the podcast, If I Were You, an advice show where listeners email in questions which are answered in a humorous way. Their involvement in podcasting led them to founding the podcasting network HeadGum.
Jake and Amir left CollegeHumor in 2015 to focus on producing their own content. In 2016, the duo released an on-demand comedy series called Lonely and Horny on Vimeo. The series was picked up by CollegeHumor for its second season.
