| I’m J.D. Durkin, a Capitol Hill reporter in Washington and anchor for a new nightly show that covers politics, tech, and other random shit like TikTok trends and rockets. AMA. Posted: 08 Jul 2021 08:09 AM PDT I've been a Congressional and White House reporter since 2017 for the business network Cheddar News out of Washington DC, before Cheddar, I worked as an op-ed writer and senior editor for Mediaite, a site covering politics and the cable newsrooms. I started my career as a comedy writer, writing sketch and late night for various live shows in LA and NYC, including at the PIT, UCB, and Second City Hollywood for many years. I also have a small rescue chihuahua named Runo, have a sleeve of tattoos, and am working on getting more ink work done in the next year. Born and raised in Jersey, ride or die NY sports fan. My favorite Avenger is Captain America but Rocket the trash panda is a close second. Longtime Reddit lurker aka I'm on here constantly but don't post much. I currently host the new show None of the Above, weeknights on Cheddar News at 8pm EST, and am on most social platforms under the handle @jivedurkey.
