The next four years are going to be a lot of fun. In no small part because of my good friend Hatem Gabr, with whom I’ve co-produced live shows with Jimmy Dore, Colin Quinn, and the first Rutherford Comedy Festival.
On this special collaboration between The Lou Perez Podcast and Live from America Podcast, Hatem and I catch up on NYC’s congestion pricing (which I might end up liking), technology and terrorism, and the California fires.
The fires are bringing out some of the best in humanity, like The Gruels (Calico Fish House) and Mike Cernovich, who are raising money and feeding victims.
Jackie Clark (my first improv coach) and Devon Tracey have such heartbreaking stories. If you’re able to help, please give where you can.
My friend Matt Himes from The Blaze has written a powerful piece in the New York Post about losing his home in the fires. Please check it out.
I loved living in California. California is still home to many people I love. And it's a state I want to return to. Here’s a song by Ray Bull that reminds me of my days in Cali, even though it came out nearly a decade after I’d moved back to the east coast.
