Bassem Youssef is an Egyptian comedian and political satirist who trained as a heart surgeon before moving into comedy. He became widely known for a television satire programme that drew comparisons to American late-night shows, and he is often described as the Jon Stewart of Egypt. He is also the subject of the documentary Tickling Giants and the author of the book Revolution for Dummies.

He now lives in Los Angeles and performs live stand-up shows in English and Arabic, touring in several cities. Online he shares comedy, commentary on current affairs and society, and lighter everyday material. He also talks about a plant-based lifestyle and health, and describes much of his output as a mix of humour and useless stuff.
