Goodbye spook-tober

This month must end

Two Halloweekends is just too much. I’d like us to all come back down from the Halloween High we’ve all been on and face the facts.

That this man’s smile could end wars. Let’s hope it does.

Round Up

Things I like right now

  1. This felt important

  1. Percy Rustomji- I went into a taping of After Midnight hosted by Taylor Tomlinson (big luv) and the warm up comedian was INCREDIBLE. Percy stole everyone’s heart and brought genuine excitement without it being overkill or cheesy. Brought out the inner theater kid in all of us, which be real, there’s at least a small voice of that in every person who’s gotten this far in the newsletter. Check him out!

  2. Domingo - sorry not sorry. Ariana’s vocal fry awakened something within me.

  1. Billy Crystal on CONAF- I don’t think there’s anything that brings me more joy than cute old men talking about comedy. What an absolute legend session here. Great old comedy lore.

    Catch the new episode on Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend out now!

  2. It’s Florida, Man on Max- new absurdist doc style show by Jeff Tomsic and Mark Herwic. Really fun and great satire of all the TLC shows I was obsessed with as a child.

  3. This also felt important
