Rachel Feinstein

Actress and comedian Rachel Feinstein is a favorite among fans and fellow comedians alike. Named one of Variety’s “10 Comics To Watch” of 2024, her Netflix standup special "Big Guy" premiered in May 2024 on the streamer’s list of Top 10 TV Shows in the U.S. where it remained for over a week. The hour invites viewers into Rachel’s delightfully chaotic life as the wife of a firefighter, a mother, and a comedian. In the words of her 3-year-old daughter, “my daddy’s a hero and my mommy’s sarcastic.” Rachel explores her marriage to a first responder who is also married to his firehouse family and unpacks what it’s like to navigate emotional intimacy with someone whose job it is to save people’s lives. Chock full of her signature “amazing impersonations” (Vulture), Big Guy endears us to the loveable hodgepodge of characters in Rachel’s world.
