Shut Up, I'm Talking! chronicles the life and career of actor and comedian Jason Stuart.

"I thought to myself, I'm in love with Omar Sharif - who am I left to be but Barbra Streisand! And I'm a guy... Oy!"

Stuart's credits include TV shows "Will & Grace" and Judd Apatow's "Love," as well as masterful character work in dozens of feature films, such as "Tangerine" and "Birth of a Nation."

He can be heard on his new weekly show on Dash Radio, "Riffing with Jason Stuart" and he stars in upcoming films "Immortal" with Samm Levine and Dylan Baker and "Abducted" with Michael Urie and Scout Taylor-Compton. Stuart also stars in the dramatic short "Hank," which won the Best LGBTQ Short at this year's Los Angeles International Film Festival.
