It's a nice day here, People. I’m not taking it lightly. I’m sitting on my porch writing this in perfect California weather. It’s the reason people live here. It’s the calm before the storm here. The ...

Can't Stop.
Working, People. I am doing a lot of comedy. Like, a lot. I just can’t stop it seems. To the point where I’m wondering why. That happens sometimes. I feel guilty for taking a night off. It’s an old NYC ...

Canada, Folks. It’s always a relief to go to Canada. Even if it’s just for a day or two. I love Vancouver. It’s a beautiful city. It was nice to be in a city that has an abundance of water but also sad ...

Deep trip, People. These journeys alone on the road are doing something to me. They are changing me somehow. In a good way. I seem to continually be settling into myself. I guess that it could be called ...

Sad day, Folks. Today is the second anniversary of the death of Lynn Shelton. I don’t think I was really thinking about it. At least no more than I do any other day, which is still quite a bit. I was ...

Tulsa, People! I’ve had a truly good time in this city. I lucked into a great week to be here. Shooting an episode of Reservation Dogs has been great. It’s odd, I spend a lot of time thinking about what ...

I’m feeling it, Folks! The driving and the weird beds and varied pillows and strange sounds of hotels starts to wear me down a little. I’m just glad that generally, even if I’m only in town one night, I ...

Back for a few days, Folks! I am out in it. It’s good to be home for a few days. I have to ground myself. I have to work off the meat and pudding. I have to connect with my cats. I have to cook some ...

Roading it, Folks. New England, again. It’s been great. I really don’t know why this tour is somehow revelatory to me personally. I think it’s the car time. The moving meditation of driving the familiar ...

The Comedy Store, People! It was the 50th anniversary of The Comedy Store last week. There was a party. The vortex was opened. I don’t know if I can explain the current that I locked into at The Comedy ...

Georgia, Folks! The show in Georgia was full. The crowd was great. I was a little shaky. The quadruple macchiato an hour before the show didn’t help. It’s always weird to me to feel like that on ...

Oral surgery, People! Not great. I think the procedure went fine. They had to rip a tooth out of my head. A dead molar with a crown on it. An old root canal was rotting. I am very glad I ...

Live Rock, People! I went to see Gang of Four the other night. I don’t think we’re past Covid but we are certainly in the ‘fuck it’ period of the pandemic. The pause between surges. The respite of ...

Snow, Folks. Snow. It had been a while since I had actually seen snow. I still kind of took it for granted like it was no big deal. It isn’t, really. I have seen a lot of it in my life. I just ...

Watching the water, People. This may be a journal entry. I drove up to San Luis Obispo with my opener, Esther Povitsky. There’s a point where the water, the Pacific Ocean, just appears on the ...

People!I made a quick trip home. Went to look at some property and also to see my father. Sadly, every time I go back I feel a little less connected. I think I may have eaten my last helping of carne ...

The Bay Area, People! I always forget that San Francisco kind of gives me the creeps. Not the people or even the city per se. There’s just a vibe up there, maaaan. An electric darkness. Before I try to ...

Been a little loopy, Folks. I was in NYC last week doing some promotional stuff for The Bad Guys. There was a lot of shooting for television spots in Korea, China, Israel, Mexico, Australia and more. ...
