The best advice I ever got as an open micer was don't take it personally. It's called an "act" for a reason...when you bomb…and you will bomb a lot…it's not you, it's your act. I soon as I separated myself from my act, I got better.

He helped him write one of my favorite shows of all time freaks and geeks so that’s how I know I’m going to listen to every single word that comes out of his mouth

[@Andy_CFC]

Everyones now thinking to themselves 'FUCK', decades? God damn it, I better get my shit together

[@Bballer12ification]

Man the amount of time this guy has devoted to his craft

[@pukeyourguts]

yeah it's kinda tragic when you think about it

[@Mike-bp2hh]

​@@pukeyourgutshe's married to Leslie Mann, nothing tragic about that

@@pukeyourguts Tragic? He's been very successful doing something he loves.

[@pukeyourguts]

i stand by it. he's not funny. he's just near funny people a lot and even that makes him not funny. after all the fame, after all the money, Judd will wonder to himself, "man, was I ever that funny?"

[@briansheen9622]

Bruh I wish I was able to just interview the best comedians just like that

[@charless.sturdivant]

[@nutnut813]

Good luck

[@Gabrielbodw]

Did you make it?

[@Leahcim76]

Louis CK 🤢Not a great example Mr. Appatow

[@CollegeDroputPowerpoints]

Right he needs someone as unfunny as he is... like Amy Schumer

[@_ErickRangel]

Right, because what he did undermines his entire comedy career. GTFO

[@melodicmiserii]
