New headshot, who dis? Thanks so much to @cathrynfarnsworth . She's an incredible and incredibly warm photographer who made me feel at ease (for that those that know me not an easy task!) and brought the best out of me. Cannot recommend her more.

A lineup packed with killers, club regulars, comics with late night TV credits, and the next wave of up-and-coming standups all on one show.
Comedy Grind has featured names from Netflix, Comedy Central, late night TV, and some of the funniest comics working today — while also giving the spotlight to rising comedians before they blow up.
Past performers include Theo Von, Nikki Glaser, Anthony Jeselnik, Nick Swardson, and Tiffany Haddish.
If you like discovering comics before everyone else starts posting clips of them six months later… this is the show.
🎟️ Bring some people, grab a drink, and come laugh with us.

Got to see the great(est living?) #cinematographer #rogerdeakins and his wife/partner James Ellis Deakins @team.deakins at the LA Times Book Festival. Here he talks about his first work with the Coen Brothers. Not caught in video, shortly after he confirmed that Joel and Ethan will be getting back together, although Roger likely won't be shooting it.
Thanks to writer/director (and friend) extraordinaire @heatherwritestheworld for hooking me up with a ticket
“A graphic novel was not something I saw coming. Paul Westerberg used to sing about opportunity knocking once and then the door slamming shut. When an opportunity comes, do you know how to walk through the door and grab it?”
We spoke with Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready about his upcoming debut graphic novel, Farewell to Seasons, and companion album.

Excited to announce that this coming Sunday, March 15th 2026 at 8PM I’ll be doing my first #standup #comedy showcase at the Icehouse in Pasadena (@theicehousecc , hosted by the incredible @ahmedbharoocha along with comics like @drseemayasmin@stephaniemaurasanchez and more.

Back in 2009 I wrote a #comicbook called UNTHINKABLE. It was about a fictional writer who got recruited into a real -life think tank where creative people like me were recruited to come up with worst case terror scenarios…only for those terror scenarios to come true,
Aside from getting me detained by the TSA and almost becoming a movie and then series at Fox, UNTHINKABLE also helped me get a career as a futurist, consulting with the military and intelligence communities about the future of conflict.
This Alte,drawn by the great @juliantotinotedesco , shows a joint US Israeli attack in Iran, masked law enforcement clashing with rioters in front of the US Capitol and mandatory vaccinations.
I take no pleasure in life imitating ar, and hope against hope for a happy ending to all this madness.
