Jimmy Failla: From behind the wheel of a cab to the spotlight of cable comedy — and a proud “trophy husband” to boot

From Cab Driver to Comedy Star
Jimmy Failla went from steering taxis in New York City to steering America’s sense of humor. Today, he’s still cracking jokes at home in Westbury, New York.

You may know him as the sharp-tongued host of FOX News Saturday Night or the midday voice behind FOX Across America. But long before the national spotlight, Failla was surviving a house full of cops and Polish-Italian jokes.

Now a household name across nearly 200 radio stations and a rising force in political comedy, Failla proves you don’t need a political science degree to win America over. All it takes is a sharp punchline, a thick skin, and maybe a little help from the parking gods on Sixth Avenue.

From Levittown to Late Night
Raised in Levittown, New York, Failla grew up as the class clown in a family of law enforcement officers. “Humor was survival,” he recalls. “I had older brothers who beat me up, so I learned to make people laugh to get out of trouble.”
