    I have to say, the move of bringing your writers to the forefront is a stroke of genius. You get to create content out of office inside jokes and it's incredibly entertaining to watch

      Giving his writers a platform also allows for a broader range of humor! It seems like they are a pretty diverse team and can tell some freakin' genius jokes that would be super inappropriate for a straight, cis, white dude to deliver.

      That's what you get falling asleep to corrections (actually a gateway to really good sleep and falling back asleep). Sometimes better than meditation sounds/music, ASMR. Only comparable to nature ambience or silence when I'm good with silence.
      There's a lot of truth inside our dreams. He is a nice person.
