But like seriously, is there a video of this set? I very much REALLY want to see it. Anybody know if it exists?

Bravery is the most fundamental necessity of comedy. The braver you are, the funnier you are.

To be fair, hemp oil doesn’t have any breasts, so I’m not too impressed by it being 99% breast cancer free.

A lot of fans said that Bill Hicks got a lot better after he got diagnosed. I don’t know if that’s true, I was a late-comer to his bandwagon; but maybe there is something about being fearless or at least having perspective on your fear that something like a more apparent view on your own mortality can give you.

As a fan of standup and someone who had watched a lot of interviews and docs about the art one of the things you hear about is that the artists are overcoming a lot of fears just in regards to performance and then in regards of how to be honest with strangers.

Excuse me, I’m sorry to bother you, but I have to tell you I love Tig’s voice.
