He is the creator and host of political talk show The Rubin Report, formerly part of Ora TV and The Young Turks Network. He previously hosted The Six Pack podcast and radio show on Sirius XM Radio.

Early life

David Joshua Rubin was born on June 26, 1976 in Brooklyn, New York. He spent his adolescence in Syosset and then resided on the Upper West Side of Manhattan for 13 years.

In 1994, Rubin graduated from Syosset High School. In 1998, he earned a bachelor's degree in political science from Binghamton University, in Vestal, New York.

Career

Rubin in 2012

Stand-up comedy

In 1998, Rubin started his career in comedy doing stand-up and attending open-mics in New York City. In 1999, he became an intern at The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.

In 2000, he "propelled his stand-up comic career from the honing grounds of the Comedy Cellar." Later that year he teamed up with a band of fellow Comedy Cellar alumni to create a public-access television series, a news program parody called The Anti-Show which was secretly filmed at NBC Studios in 30 Rockefeller Plaza.

In 2002, he co-founded several successful New York City-based comedy clubs including Joe Franklin's Comedy Club and The Comedy Company in Times Square where he continued to do stand-up until 2007.

He has continued to perform stand-up in New York City and Los Angeles at comedy clubs including Carolines on Broadway and The Laugh Factory.

Podcasting

He was the host of two popular podcasts, Hot Gay Comics and The Ben and Dave Show. Both podcasts were turned into a television series on the here! television network.

In May 2009, Rubin co-created and co-hosted a new podcast called The Six Pack, which went on to become a top podcast on iTunes. In October 2011, The Six Pack was picked up by Sirius XM Radio and began its run as a live talk show until its end in December 2012.

Hosting

In January 2013, Rubin left radio and began his television career. He was offered his own politics and current events talk show, The Rubin Report, on The Young Turks Network and moved from New York City to Los Angeles, California.

In 2014, while still hosting The Rubin Report, Rubin also hosted The Golden Girls Ultimate Fan Club, a weekly web-series on Logo TV.

In 2015, Rubin moved his show The Rubin Report from The Young Turks Network to RYOT News which "provided him with a great opportunity". Shortly after, Larry King's Ora TV picked up the show which debuted on September 9, 2015.

In an interview with author Sam Harris on The Rubin Report, Rubin cited Cenk Uygur's heated criticism of Sam Harris as having "a good amount to do with why I left" The Young Turks.

Politics

Rubin identifies as a classical liberal and speaks out against elements within the progressive movement, which he refers to as the "regressive left", a term coined by British activist Maajid Nawaz. Rubin has stated that "regressives are the left's version of the tea party," and that the phrase "Regressive Left" also applies to people on the left who "use illiberal tactics such as lying about and smearing their opponents to promote their cause."

Recognition

In 2013, Rubin was nominated by LA Weekly for Funniest Twitter. His tweets bring humor and attention to political issues and have been featured in Time, Politico, AOL, and Salon.

Personal life

Rubin publicly came out as gay in 2006, which he has referred to as his "defining moment". In December 2014, he announced his engagement to producer David Janet and the couple married on August 27, 2015.
