certain knowledge people
I thought they may have presumed too much knowledge of certain things for people who are not comedians. Like Montreal. A comic understands what it is and its importance, but someone else may not know about it.
american-comedian bring comic open people regular
In New York, if you wanted to be a comic you had to bring people to try to get on an open mic, but you could get on a regular show in Florida.
thinking years people
Only lately, like within the last few years, have I had people actually do an impression of me to me, which weirds me out to think of what they have picked up on, without ever realizing it myself
phones numbers people
People don't understand that that's really what it is. They're looking for a magic phone number or something. And to a certain extent, I understand that, because comedy is treated so much as a stepping stone by a lot of people.
funny character people
I would call it a comedy variety show. We have some people just doing straight standup. We usually try to have one musical act of sort. So its just people being funny in different ways, not just sketch, not just standup, not just characters, all of those things.
new-york party people
People in New York love having roof parties.

I've never read Ulysses. Why do you ask?

I've never been a TV junkie. I remember watching Letterman way back when he had a morning show.
american-comedian bad deal dinners front full good maddening run served venues
Some venues are better run than others. Sometimes it's just maddening to deal with full dinners being served in front of your face. You can have a good or bad show anywhere.

You always think you're better than you are in the beginning.

Well, I have since seen you at Tinkle. It's a comedy show started by David Cross, me and Jon Benjamin. It features a wide variety of acts for all tastes and seasons.
american-comedian commercial forget hammer home might point standard
There are commercials that are funny, but you might forget the product. A standard commercial might hammer that point home better.
access american-comedian highly private
I got access to a private tour of the zoo. I got to go in a cage with a koala, which I highly recommend.
couple instead tried urge
I had some friends that tried it down there, and I went to a couple of open mics, and I just kind of got this... this sick urge to try it instead of just watching it.
