In this episode I speak about how great of an era we’re in for Stand-Up Comedy.  I’ve recently watched: Jim Norton’s Mouthful of Shame, Dave Chappell’s Collection 1 & 2, Mike Birbiglia’s Thank God for Jokes, Amy Schumer’s The Leather Special and Jerrod Carmichael’s Love at the Store.  I revisit the book I’m currently reading: The Magic of Thinking Big, I speak about training for the 5-Boro Cycling Marathon and building a PVC fence with my brother.  Lastly, I read the Spun Today questionnaire response filled out by fellow Writer; Elaine Almonte.
