Comedian Myq Kaplan shares about the origins of his career in stand-up comedy and in podcasting. He reflects on the intentions behind his comedy and how his approach and form has evolved over the years. As a fan of Myq as well as his friend, I enjoyed learning about his journey and the lessons along the way.
About Myq: Myq has appeared on the Tonight Show, Conan, Letterman, James Corden, Seth Meyers, Comedy Central, Last Comic Standing, and America’s Got Talent. He has a one-hour standup special on Amazon, “Small, Dork, and Handsome,” and two podcasts, The Faucet and Broccoli and Ice Cream. His first album, “Vegan Mind Meld,” was one of iTunes’ top 10 comedy albums of the year, and his newest album, “A.K.A.,” debuted at #1. The NY Times called it “invigoratingly funny” and included it among its five “coronavirus best new comedy specials”… “to remind you of the old normal.” And now, here we are in the new weird!
