GREG WARREN - TRUST YOUR GUT [EP. 126]
Greg Warren (most recently seen on Late Night with Seth Meyers, The Late Late Show and Comedy Central Presents) has built a strong fan base with an act inspired by his Midwestern upbringing. His CDs, Running Out of Time (Sept 2013) and One Star Wonder (June 2009) hit #3 and #6 respectively in iTunes Top Comedy Albums. An honest mix of self-deprecation, frustration and an arsenal of lifelike characters highlight Greg’s colorful perspective. More importantly than all that, Greg is my buddy and we had a chance to sit down and talk about the craft of creating comedy. Specifically, I ask to Greg Warren about: Having a joke cut from some tv shows and not others The benefit of picking on yourself first before anyone else Getting good before going full time Digging into his previous sales job at Proctor & Gamble for jokes Wondering if he would work at Denny's forever Selling Duncan Hines to "Sak-n-Sav" in Texas Finding a "way in" to write jokes about previous experiences One experience I should be writing about! Advice from comedian Ron Morey that helped Greg get rolling faster How he goes about getting a set ready for late night tv What jokes work better on late night shows Why "tags" don't work  as well on late night shows. Working with Billy Gardell on his Mike And Molly audition material Performing on Seth Myers when Billy was guest hosting His wrestling mocumentary "Stall Camp" Bouncing ideas off of fellow comics His new exclusive CD project with Laughs USA/SiriusXM and much, much more!
