Eli is a Los Angeles based travel fanatic with an infectious enthusiasm and a nose for the weird and wonderful. With over 20 years of experience exploring the obscure corners of the earth (75+ countries and counting!), Eli is also a road trip expert. Having driven across not only America a million times but also Iceland, Ethiopia, Bosnia, Bolivia, Turkey, Tunisia, Uruguay, Uzbekistan, and many more faraway lands, his preferred method of getting around is four wheels on asphalt. It’s how you find the places the package tours won’t go. You gotta get in a car and literally take the road less traveled.
Eli’s comedy and hosting background began at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater 20 years ago and he has been performing on UCB stages and with their TourCo ever since. Eli’s TV credits include Delocated, Key & Peele, Conan, Kimmel, Loafy, both Children’s AND General Hospitals, and more. Eli created and hosted Date Night, a live-on-stage dating show that ran for eight years and made it to Pilot with Sony and USA. Probably most importantly, he hosts the Firecracker Wiener Nationals - a charity wiener dog race on the Oregon Coast every 4th of July.
Bottom line - Eli is fun.
