Timeline
Robert Lee Jr. (born September 17, 1971) is an American stand-up comedian, actor, and podcaster.
Lee was born on September 17, 1971, to Korean immigrant parents Jeanie and Robert Lee.
He and his younger brother Steve grew up in Poway, California.
His parents owned clothing stores in both Escondido and Encinitas, California.
He attended Painted Rock Elementary School, Twin Peaks Middle School, and Poway High School.
In high school, he was part of a breakdancing team.
After graduation, he attended Palomar College before dropping out.
Lee worked at cafes and restaurants before pursuing a career in comedy.
In 1994, the coffee shop where he was working abruptly closed.
Lee stated, "I just went next door to get a job, which was The Comedy Store in San Diego."
After a few months of working odd jobs at the club, he tried stand-up during one of their amateur nights.
He then began working regularly at The Comedy Store in Los Angeles, a comedy club owned by Pauly Shore's mother Mitzi.
Lee has said that his parents had hoped he would continue on with the family business and were less than supportive of his comedic pursuits at first.
From 2001 to 2009, Lee was a cast member on MADtv, and he co-starred in the ABC single-camera sitcom series Splitting Up Together alongside Jenna Fischer and Oliver Hudson between 2018 and 2019.
In 2001, Lee joined the cast of MADtv, making him the show's first and only Asian cast member.
He has stated that he dreaded playing the characters Bae Sung and Connie Chung, as well as the "Average Asian" skits.
Lee has also appeared in the films Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle (2004), Pineapple Express (2008), and The Dictator (2012).
He had a guest appearance as the cynical, burned-out Dr. Kang on FX on Hulu's TV comedy series Reservation Dogs.
He also co-hosts the podcast TigerBelly with Khalyla Kuhn.
In 2007, he pitched a sitcom to Comedy Central about a Korean family, which was to star his own family.
Lee remained with the cast until the series' cancellation in 2009 and returned briefly when MADtv was revived in 2016 on The CW.
Some of Lee's recurring characters included:
During a podcast interview conducted by fellow actor and comedian Joe Rogan on February 1, 2011, Lee stated that during the first few years he did stand-up, his parents barely spoke to him.
However, after his appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno his father called him, asked how much he had to pay to be on the show, and then apologized for not supporting his comedy career.
Lee has included his family in some of his work; his brother has appeared in several non-speaking roles on MADtv, and his entire immediate family has appeared in a sketch on the show.
In 2012, Lee was hired to reboot Maker Studios' YouTube comedy channel, The Station.
Lee hosted the 9th MusiCares MAP Fund Benefit Concert in 2013.
Started in 2015, TigerBelly is a video podcast hosted by Bobby Lee and his ex-partner, Khalyla Kuhn.
It also features appearances by technical engineer Gilbert Galon and producer George Kimmel.
The show's intro song "Shadow Gook" was written and produced by Lee and performed by Lee and Kuhn.
The hosts discuss events from their lives and news topics from popular culture, often revolving around Asian American issues related to the entertainment industry, adolescence, sexuality, ethnicity, racism, and politics.
Prior to the creation of TigerBelly, Lee and Erik Griffin pitched a podcast to All Things Comedy but never developed the show.
While Kuhn was recovering from heart surgery, she developed a podcast as a way to occupy herself.
Lee assisted her with its creation and eventually appeared on her show.
He then decided to focus on a podcast with Kuhn instead of with Griffin.
Lee began taking methamphetamine and marijuana around age 12, as well as heroin by age 15, and went through three drug-rehabilitation attempts before becoming sober when he was 17.
From 2019 to 2023, Lee made several appearances as recurring character Jin Jeong in the Magnum P.I. television series.
In 2020, Lee began co-hosting the Bad Friends podcast with Andrew Santino.
