Paul Giamatti on my Radio Show!

Paul Giamatti is one of my all time favorite actors, he starred in the movie American Splendor (The Harvey Pekar Story) which was a movie that really changed my life. After that movie I called Harvey Pekar who wound up pushing me into following my idea to start a Comedy Magazine: Comical Magazine which I worked on for 3 years during which time we put out 10 issues and circulated 500,000 copies around the Tri Stare area. It was something that wound up paving the way for allot of what I do today. Recently Paul came by Comical Radio to hang with me and the crew. The full interview is up on YouTube but here's a snippet for you:

The 2009 Magners Glasgow Comedy Festival

I headlined a bunch of shows at this years Glasgow Comedy Festival. It was allot of fun and I got some sweet reviews. This one (In the Scotsman) is one I am particularlly proud of.

"LIVE IN PARIS"

I wanted to do Stand Up at LE COMEDY CLUB in Paris but it's an all French Speaking crowd so I had to find a way to get my jokes across considering that I don't speak French. Lucky for me I found Waheed, m exact replica. Only difference being He's a French Muslim and I'm a American Jew. 

"LA TRIP PART 1- Meet The Cobra" 

I got flown out to LA by my friend Aryeh Teplow-Phipps to film some skethces with his friend The Cobra and some people he works with. It was a very strange trip, one in which I wound up living 3 places in 2 weeks and

filming some real out there shit. I thought an

 appropriate start to this would be by introducing you to the Cobra

since he was the first one I saw (he picked me up at the airport) when I got to LA. So here goes...

"Road Gig"

As a performer you are often forced to travel a lot, At my stage in the game that means a lot of one nighters

on the east coast. I thought this gig would be a good example of what it can be like t

o show you guys and gals out there. Hope you like it.

NOTE: I include a lot of driving footage upfront to try and give an authentic feel of things.

"My Hood"

I thought in this entry I'd show you a little bit of my neighborhood and show you what I see every day. Hope you like it. The music is a favorite of mine Sean Lennon...

"Editing"

I have been filming my day to day life and will start posting them up here for anyone interested in the behind the scenes of what it takes to make it as a comic in New York City. This one is a look at what it's like for me to go edit the web series I'm working on...I hope you enjoy! best, Danny
