Early life
Reynolds[1] was born in Brown Deer, Wisconsin, on November 27, 1979,[2] the son of English immigrants. He has an older brother.[2] Through his parents, he holds dual British and American citizenship.[3] His mother, Pam, is from Birmingham and has since moved back to England. Reynolds attended Emerson College in Boston, where he joined the improv group Swollen Monkeys.[2] Upon graduating in 2003,[4] he moved to Los Angeles to continue his comedy career.[2]
Career
In 1997, at the age of 18, Reynolds performed his first stand-up show at Comedy Sportz in Milwaukee.[2] In 2005, he worked on the NBC prank/hidden camera series The Real Wedding Crashers.[5] He co-hosts the podcast Point vs. Point with Evan Mann.
Reynolds has written and produced for a number of television shows, including Arrested Development and MTV's Failosophy. With his writing partner Evan Mann, he starred in a short-lived show on the Travel Channel called Mancations. He continues to write and produce stand-up comedy. In 2019, he released his debut comedy album, Riddled with Disease, which went to No. 1 on the Billboard charts the week it was released.[5][6]
Reynolds is best known as the co-host of the comedy history podcast The Dollop, which debuted in 2014. In the show, co-host Dave Anthony tells Reynolds a particularly shocking or notable story from American history about which Reynolds knows nothing.[7] As a running joke on the show, Anthony often shortens Reynolds' first name from "Gareth" to "Gary", which Reynolds dislikes. Anthony and Reynolds co-wrote a book based on the podcast, The United States of Absurdity: Untold Stories from American History, in 2017.[8] Screenwriter Josh Olson once described the book as "a great bathroom read".[9]
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Reynolds began featuring his mother Pam on a comedic YouTube series called Pamdemic. He also hosted a weekly show from his bedroom called Ga'riffs, where he riffed on topics submitted by viewers.
In 2023, Reynolds started an advice podcast entitled We're Here to Help with co-host Jake Johnson.[10]

Reynolds lives in Los Angeles with his cat, José, who is often featured or mentioned on his podcasts.[6] He is a fan of the Green Bay Packers and has a Packers tattoo on his right arm.[11]
