Ep. 114: First Day of Spring

I’m recording from the car again, somewhere in Illinois, trying to stay funny while my body stages a full-on rebellion. The road has a way of turning tiny moments into big thoughts: someone almost cuts me off, a cop appears, the speed limit drops out of nowhere, and suddenly I’m spiraling into questions about luck, aging, and why I ever thought drinking green beer in the cold was a good idea. If you like a comedian road diary with real tour life energy, you’re in the right place.

We get into St Patrick’s Day culture and the weird pressure to celebrate, plus the hangover math that hits harder as you get older. There’s also the unglamorous behind-the-scenes side of stand-up comedy: buying a car to keep touring, keeping a podcast alive without a big team, and looking “like you’re killing it” while still feeling uncertain about what’s next. Along the way I rant about wind turbines, Buffalo Wild Wings consequences, and the kind of tired that makes you question everything from your facial hair to your life plan.

The takeaway is simple: the dream can be messy, loud, and shaky, but it’s still worth chasing if you can laugh while you do it. If you’ve ever felt burned out, behind, or confused by what success is supposed to feel like, this one will land. Subscribe, share this with a friend who lives on the road in their head, and leave a review with the most overrated holiday so we can argue about it.
