Louis C.K.

He is an amazing man and artist, and his films My Dinner with Andre and Vanya on 42nd Street were HUGE inspirations to me (watch them!). For a few weeks he once gathered a group of lost actor souls in a loft in the Garment District, and we would do these strange body exercises called plastiques.

watch a doco on Billy Crystal, who recounted a moment early in his career when he and his new agent went to a stand-up comedy night and watched a guy slay (Note to non-comedy folks: ‘Slay’ is good. Very good.) Afterwards, Billy turned to his agent and commented on how great that was. ‘Yeah,’ said the agent, ‘but he didn’t leave a tip.’ ‘Huh?’ said

He’s also often hilarious. A video of him dorking out with a fidget spinner went viral, and his trolling of the Young Turks at the 2016 Republican Convention can safely be described by the overused term of “epic.”
