Comedian, actress, and podcast host Nikki Glaser made a standout appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week, delivering a hilarious and heartfelt conversation that touched on her upcoming role as host of the Golden Globe Awards and her uniquely funny relationship with her father — including their ongoing tradition of joking around in grocery stores.
During the interview, Glaser shared her excitement and nerves about hosting one of Hollywood’s most high-profile award shows, offering insight into how she’s preparing to take the Golden Globes stage with her signature sharp wit, self-awareness, and fearless honesty.

The conversation took a personal and playful turn when Glaser talked about her dad, revealing how the two often team up to make each other laugh — and occasionally embarrass nearby shoppers — while wandering grocery store aisles. The anecdote highlighted Glaser’s relatable humor and the family dynamics that continue to influence her comedy.
Fresh off a career-defining year that includes sold-out tours, hit stand-up specials, and now hosting duties at the Golden Globes, Glaser’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! underscored her status as one of comedy’s most compelling and versatile voices.
