Here’s a very funny Dan Mintz interview with John Mulaney for Comedy Central.  They discuss bombing, bombing, and the many times that John Mulaney has bombed.

EDIT: If this isn’t playing on your Tumblr dashboard, click through this link to watch it or watch it on the actual post on my Tumblr.

Great stuff about Kurt Vonnegut, “The American Dyspeptic”, growing up broke to become a writer, and heavy comedy.

"Ten Things To Do At An Open Mic" (SoCalStandUp.com)

SoCalStandUp.com has a new blog and I’m contributing to it!  My first post is a solid how-to, with a light dusting of jokes and a thick caramel drizzle of best wishes.

And check out the shows that Brian Monarch is producing on that SoCalStandUp site, like the show tomorrow at Sardo’s in Burbank.

My improv group Crossbow is in a great show on Saturday at 8pm: The Main Event at Second City Hollywood!  Come see us make stuff up, plus other groups Freedom Snatch and Bro Squad 5 making stuff up after us.  The Facebook event has up-to-the-minute info.  It’s our only January show so come Saturday, or wait till these other impossibly far-off shows happen.

One of my favorite single-serving Tumblrs, and it makes me happy that they’ve kept right on going despite the Dear Leader’s passing.
