Joe Mande is an American stand-up comedian, writer and actor. He graduated from Emerson College in Boston, where he formed a sketch comedy group with Harris Wittels and Armen Weitzman.

Mande has appeared on such TV shows as Comedy Central's The Half Hour, VH1's Best Week Ever and Conan. He is also the author of the book Look At This Fucking Hipster.

Mande was a writer for the final three seasons of the NBC sitcom Parks and Recreation, also appearing in seven episodes as Pawnee resident Morris Lerpiss. He has also written for the Comedy Central sketch series Kroll Show, and the Adult Swim series Delocated.

On July 14, 2014, it was announced that Mande had posted a Kickstarter for "The Million Dollar Podcast", saying that if he raised one million dollars he would interview "comedians and musicians and shit like that." He was briefly held up by Kickstarter, who initially rejected the project, saying that it didn't "create something to share with others." After reading Mande's appeal, the Kickstarter was finally allowed to begin. It ran from July 16 - August 15, 2014, and if you donate $1,000 Mande will "mention your name on the podcast or something."

Mande released his first comedy album, Bitchface on March 14, 2014. The album was done in the style of a mixtape with voicemail messages from Fabolous, Roy Hibbert, Jenny Slate, Nick Kroll, Aziz Ansari, The RZA and Amy Poehler.

In 2017, Mande released a Netflix comedy special called Joe Mande's Award Winning Comedy Special.
