Get Ready to Meet “JAY” Courtesy of Joseph Bennett

In his series of shorts for Cake on FXX, California artist/director Joseph Bennett explores characters from America’s underclass in painstaking (and often painful) detail. Case in point: Jay, certified narcissist/vacuum sales wizard.

Produced by FX Productions, Cake is a weekly anthology series featuring “a diverse array of narratives from storytellers both new and established that are equal parts thought-provoking, laugh-inducing and authentic.”
