145 - Jimmy Pardo (Part One of Two)

Sick of being told he was the funniest guy off-stage, something had to change for lightning-fast wise-cracker Jimmy Pardo. Fortunately it did, and he became the "self-deprecating blowhard" America knows and loves today. We talk about the pros and cons of opening for Conan O'Brien, and explore the irresistible allure of TV, even in the face of new media. But can you ever escape feeling like you can't write a joke?Get ad-free new episodes, bonus content from interviews and much more by joining the Insiders Club at www.comedianscomedian.com/insidersGet tickets for Stu Goldsmith's stand-up tour at www.comedianscomedian.com/tour@comcompod | www.comedianscomedian.comAnd don't forget to join the Comcom Facebook group, which you can do here.
