    On to The Next One
    Nov 19 2021

    I just had arguably the biggest week of my career. And then….. what? This will happen a lot in this business. Spend days, weeks, months even years trying to accomplish something then the panic of a scary question. “What’s next?” This week I discuss facing the possible malaise after a big gig. And how to feel after an accomplishment.

    The Check Spot
    Nov 9 2021

    The check spot is the most dreaded spot on a comedy show. It’s where the young act on the bill earns their keep. The audience doesn’t pay attention, the servers are loud, and one’s self esteem can get crushed. I talk about how important the checks were to my development and 
    Why I decided to record an album during them. In the end I discuss if that spot should even exist and if a comic should get paid to do them.

    Losing my edge?
    Nov 4 2021

    This week I ponder if getting mental health deteriorates a comic art? Does getting help take away one’s edge? And is it worth it?
