I’ll be appearing as El-Fayoumy in “The Last Days of Judas Iscariot” this summer at Stage 773. Ticket information is in the very silly video above.
The Sweetness, Episode 21 with Daniel Strauss, Part 2: Show Notes
This might be the most action-packed hour of the podcast ever! Daniel and I continue our conversation about comedy in Chicago as it veers into comparisons to wrestling. Plus, we cover the advice Daniel got that gives these episodes their name, and I read a poem and offer some conspiratorial support for brothers and sisters in the struggle!
Themes: Ornette Coleman - “Lonely Woman” (The Shape of Jazz to Come)
Charles Mingus - “Better Git It in Your Soul” (Ah Um)
Music: SBTRKT - “Trials of the Past (feat. Sampha)” (SBTRKT), Outkast - “Roses” (The Love Below), UGK - “One Day” (Ridin’ Dirty)
References: Dean Young - “Upon Hearing of My Friend’s Marriage Breaking Up, I Envision Attack From Outer Space” (Strike Anywhere)
The second part of my appearance on The Sweetness podcast!
Here’s some press about this past weekend’s Giggles for Gilda show in Kansas City with the Second City, as well as Jason Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde!
Check out this INCREDIBLY DUMB bonus episode of The Sweetness in which Daniel Strauss tells me about his superfans. This ridiculous 3-minute interview/bit might be the apex of my Chicago comedy career, and I’m surprisingly okay with that!
Fun bit I did on my good friend, Dave Maher’s podcast.

Performing in Kansas City at the Midland Theater this weekend, 4/20 with the Second Ciy and featuring the amazing Jason Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde! Click the link for ticket info.
