Comedian Hasan Minhaj is set to make a return to Netflix with a new comedy special titled 'Off with His Head.' The special was filmed at the San Jose Civic in San Jose, California, and will focus on topics such as politics, misguided self-improvement, and the challenges of balancing life with young children and aging parents.

Minhaj, formerly a senior correspondent for Comedy Central's The Daily Show, gained popularity as the host of the Netflix comedy show 'Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj,' which aired from 2018 to 2020 and received two Peabody Awards.

In February 2023, Minhaj made a guest appearance as host on The Daily Show following the departure of the regular host. This year, he launched a politically-themed podcast titled 'Hasan Minhaj Doesn't Know.'
