Jash Created by Michael Cera Tim Heidecker Eric Wareheim Sarah Silverman Reggie Watts Original language English Production Producers Daniel Kellison Doug DeLuca Mickey Meyer[1] Production company Fullscreen Inc.[1] Original release Release March 10, 2013 (2013-03-10)

***Jash*** (stylized as ***JASH***) is a comedy community and [advertising agency](/source/Advertising_agency) created by [Michael Cera](/source/Michael_Cera), [Tim Heidecker](/source/Tim_Heidecker), [Eric Wareheim](/source/Eric_Wareheim), [Sarah Silverman](/source/Sarah_Silverman) and [Reggie Watts](/source/Reggie_Watts).[2][3] New videos are posted to the *Jash* homepage periodically by the creative team, and by new members of the always expanding collective of comics.[4] *Jash* premiered online March 10, 2013.[5][6][7] Since its launch, *Jash* has gone on to extend its reach into traditional media with television, series and award-winning short films.

"JASH" was picked as the name of the channel instead of "JOSH" because the domain had already been taken. Later on, the [backronym](/source/Backronym) "Just Attitude So Hey" was created to fit the "JASH" name.[8]

## History

### Formation

*Jash* was formed under the [YouTube Original Channel Initiative](/source/YouTube_Original_Channel_Initiative) in October 2012.[9][10]

### Launch

The channel was launched on March 10, 2013, concurrent with a kickoff panel by the creative team during South by Southwest ([SXSW](/source/South_by_Southwest)), broadcast live on the [podcast](/source/Podcast) *[Comedy Bang! Bang!](/source/Comedy_Bang!_Bang!)*[11]

### Acquisition by Group Nine Media

On November 7, 2017, JASH was acquired by [Group Nine Media](/source/Group_Nine_Media), which [Discovery Communications](/source/Discovery%2C_Inc.) (later [Discovery Inc.](/source/Discovery%2C_Inc.)) held a 35% stake in.[12] Group Nine has since been folded into [Vox Media](/source/Vox_Media).
