MBH15&16: Jim Gaffigan (Comedy & Religion)
Mbhumor
Part 1: Comedy
Part 2: Religion
You know who Jim is. C'mon, you do. If you don't, you should. He's one of the most prolific and well-respected comedians alive. I'm not going to list his resume, you know who he is. Stop playing.
Check out my two part interview with Jim Gaffigan.
In this part 1 we discuss schools of Comedy in comparison to other art forms, clubs vs. alt rooms, the changing media landscape and the digital release of his new $5 album, “Mr. Universe,” now available at http://jimgaffigan.com
In Part2 we discuss what it’s like to be religious in the world of Comedy and Hollywood in the age of context-free culture wars. It gets a little tense at times, but I think in the way that a good conversation should. Enjoy and reassure me that I’m not a jerk.
