How did Jason meet Samantha?
Prior to finding success with The Daily Show, Jason already met his wife and repeated collaborator, Samantha Bee, sometime during 1996.
Samantha recalled the beginnings of her and Jason's relationship to Cracked: "We met doing children's theater.
"People that work in children's theater are bitter, and we were no exception to that. That's what brought us together, really."
The television host shared: "Once you discover that the people you're working with hate the show as much as you do, everybody relaxes.
"It was just a dreadful, dreadful show. And the children didn't even like it, so we weren't alone."
On October 13, 2001, the comedy couple tied the knot after five years of dating.
Together, they have three children - two daughters, Piper and Ripley, and a son Fletcher - who they continue to raise in Manhattan, New York.
Reflecting on their time together in the entertainment industry, Jason told Yahoo!'s My Three Cents podcast: "I have to be honest, I don't see how you don't work with your wife.
"Couples that have just these separate lives are so disconnected in so many ways.
"We can't escape each other, which is kind of great because I think when you escape each other, you grow apart."

"I love my kids. I love my wife. I love my job. So, it makes for an easy life. It makes for an easy balance."
